In my pursue of healthy living, I have been wanting to join a gymnasium that is quite decent but with BIG name... Hahaha !!! Image purposes lah ni !!! Most of the gyms I knew then were so far away being the nearest in KLCC, yes that Fitness First. But then I thought, why should I join a gym that I have to drive all the way, paying toll, waste my fuel and of course paying for the parking that would cost me a bomb most definitely !!! So, I hold that idea for the longest time I think... Then in between I got to do free exercises like jogging in my neighbourhood or swimming while holidaying. Hubby has been thinking of getting bicycles for both of us, that too has not been materialised since we came back from Mumbai which was in 2007 but he got himself a 1000cc motorbike though early this year... Hmmmm.....
Oh yes... back to the gym story, today for the first time I went to Wangsawalk Mall in Wangsa Maju to check out the place (Mall is overstatement...cos it's only 2 story building shopping complex). Oh yes... I dragged my lil son and my maid along which my original plan was to buy groceries in Cold Storage. Then I saw the gym's promo booth and while trying to locate where I could get 1 brochure for myself I was approached by Adeline, its membership consultant. I told her my baby napping time was due so she better explain to me in a jiffy. Well... after a few minutes of explanation especially the monetary part, I was satisfied then I signed up at last....
Come to think of it, I used to pay RM150.00/month for a twice weekly mat pilates class. So, I thought this is really a better deal since I can use the gym equipment, attend all the classes (if time and body permit) and no restriction on no of days.... I paid RM337.00 when I signed up which include its processing fee and 1st and last month fees of RM238.00. Monthly I only need to pay RM119.00. Good thing about Celebrity Fitness Gym, they provide you towels when u come. So, you don't have to bring 1 from home.... Phew !!! Oh yes... since it's new, they also waived the Joining Fee of RM500.00, which I reckon it is very costly. Exit fee is RM400.00, which is fair enough.
OK now... I must find that motivation to attend the classes or simply getting fit at the gym. Perhaps I need a few new gymwears too !!! Hahaha.... Will check out at Pavilion tomorrow when I go there to pick up my new shoes at Cole Haan... Hehehe. Now I have excuses to buy gymwears ya.... I must look like a celebrity since I am going to a Celebrity Fitness Gym.... What a joke !!!

I have lived my life to taste "hidup merantau" from the age of 18 cos I was one of the lucky ones to be awarded a scholoarship to study abroad after my SPM. Yes it was tough but it's kind of fun as well when you go down that memory lanes which were full of stories, be it sad and great, so nostalgic.... But then again, nothing actually prepares u for living away from home except yourself... How u blend in with your surroundings and how fast u adapt to its lifestyle.... Ahhh... those fond memories during my Uni days !!!
But then again, it opens your eyes when u get to live in a another country where its population for one state almost equivalent of Malaysia's population. Imagine the city that is so crowded, noisy, dusty etc etc.... Poverty rate is so high, people made pedestrian pathways as their homes.... So sad... but it's the truth and living in Mumbai, India has made me realised that no where in the world could substitute home - MALAYSIA !!! U can take India in a small dose, but too large u may go bonkers !!! Hahaha....
