Vacant Mind

Seen only once July 31st, 2008

There are quite a few times that I miss haveing my camera around, I mostly don’t carry it because it can be a pain to carry if I already have a work bag and a suit. I try to make an effort one or two days a week usually on a Monday or Friday.

Doing this means that I miss out on rare opportunties like today. Walking out of the office and just missed a bit of a shower or drizzle but looking up towards to the Paris end of Collins Street I saw one really strong rainbow, there was another but the colour was weaker.

It wasn’t just the rainbow that was stunning, the light was this light sepia colour everywhere, the air had this great wet fresh smell about, the clouds around the rainbow that this look like someone had dragged a rake across the snow.

I wish that I had my camera to capture that moment and the sight, I couldn’t describe it well enough which is why I take photos and not write poetry.
Hopefully I’ll get that chance again.

My New Body July 7th, 2008

Today is the day that I start, I have been lazy for too long and I have made all the excuses in the world but it has to start sometime and now is better than any time before and anytime to come.

• I no longer sleep well
• I am loosing concentration at work
• My eating patterns are unstable
• I cannot control what I eat
• Cravings are driving me crazy
• I’m in danger or not fitting into suits
• My immune systems isn’t as strong as it used to be
• I am out of breath more often
• Constant headaches

I should have done this years ago when I tried the gym workouts but couldn’t stick with it and I’m going to try again. I have to get a food right otherwise none of it is going to work, I have make a habit of exercise otherwise it is in vain.

Measurements

• Weight: 92 Kg
• Pants Size: 36/38 Inches 92/98 cm
• Waist (belly button): 106 cm
• Chest: 105 cm

The area that worries me the most is by waist, this has to drop or my health risks will continue.

I will start today, not by drastic exercise or a fad diet, but by just saying that today is the day that I have to begin.
