Turn your house into a home with 0% [insert credit card name and promo here]

Just saw this headline / subject in my inbox and it outraged and saddened me greatly. I'm not sure if the one who thought and approved of this email doesn't know what home means or that the definition of home is now reduced to material stuff. Maybe this is one of the reasons why broken families and showing off material things you do or own in social media is the norm now. Indeed, animals are sometimes better than humans as their definition of home, family and love do not change with the times.

Baywatch (2017) film review

I watched Baywatch over the weekend and I didn't think that after reading the reviews and having a lower expectation about the movie based on the reviews, I'd still get disappointed. Maybe I still had higher hopes since it's starred by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. And after watching the first few minutes of it, I know that it will be a corny one but I didn't expect it to be that corny all throughout. I think I enjoyed the bloopers more than the film lol. I'm just glad I saw David Hasselhoff in the movie. And I couldn't help but think that he has grown old. Which means I am old as well lol. My rating: 3/5 stars.

Exercise for the mind and body

I have been itching to write for some time now... there are a lot of thoughts running through my head on things I could write (or rant). Some of them insightful while some might raise a lot of eyebrows if I were to share them in public. So I'm reviving this blog and let's see if I can keep this up again.

~~~~~~~

I should always exercise. I notice that when I do in the mornings, it keeps me lively and happy during the rest of the day. Household chores are easily done too. And it relieves my back pain. Unfortunately, I don't have that strong self-control to train myself to do just that. Especially since I'm hooked on some mobile games. But the worship service lesson taught last Wednesday really motivated me a lot.

The verse 1 Corinthians 9:24-25 states that "Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. 25 Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever."And since some of my motivations to be healthier is those joining the American Ninja Warrior, I can very well relate to the athlete analogy.

And so I started Thursday doing exercises. I still don't have a regular set of exercises but will slowly get there. And hopefully, I can maintain doing the exercises regularly as well blogging.
