Also, I never realized how much leg strength I got in these bad boys... Ooh la la, I like leg presses.


Haha, I thought the same thing about myself until I started doing leg presses. I think the most I've done more than once was like 350, but I haven't pushed myself like that in a while so I don't know what I'm capable of.

Someone has been trying to get into my account on MKO. Second time in a long while. Probably some stupid user I banned a while ago, or who had some old beef with me. Makes me wonder if it's linked to some guy named Josh Miller. wink

Yeah, cause yesterday was the first day my bf was gonna start training me since I can no longer do track (to make a long story short, medical trainers at my university are complete dicks). He wanted me to squat only 45 pounds.

And yes, to everyone 45 pounds seem like it's fairly easy... I'm a twig who only weighs 105 pounds, 45 to me is super heavy.

Despite I got a little carried away, argued that I can't do it, he convinced me, despite that I didn't want to whatsoever and just did it to shut him up, by the time I realized I benched a 45-er. Then added 2 5-pounders, then another... I just benched 65 pounds.

I dead lift 55, and 245 for leg presses. (Despite I have twigs for arms, I'm all legs, nothing but legs.)

So I DID IT!

That was sweet of you for checking on me, but you only get one chance in back of me, and it came and went for you. Better luck next time! grin

I suck at song writing, sadly, I'm still better than anyone I know. I can write cheery ska-ish music, but it's not what I want to play...

Oh my god I feel like a sumo wrestler is standing on my chest. Fuck this contusion, and fuck the police. For real. It'd be nice if he even gave a shit that he almost killed me.

On a super happy cheerful note, the snow outside is really pretty. It hasn't snowed here since 1994. We got like 3-4 inches. I can't wait to make a snowman for the first time ever. :)))

Yes, I did buy Left 4 Dead in this backwater country (not Guam). Computing the exchage rate, I bought for like $3. Installation was succesful and this game is AWESOME! And yes I just found out there was a sequel. But seriously, I wanna play online. Can I use someone's activation code?

Yeah, I saw that. Sad, isn't it? But such is the risk in an activity like that.

Whether you intended to or not, that came off as really insensitive. The man was representing his country on one of the greatest stages the world has to offer, and if anything he died because they didn't think to pad the poles that he struck beforehand. Would he have survived if they were padded? We'll never know, but to dismiss this as "oh, the activity is high risk" isn't really fair to the man. Tell that to a soldier and see what happens.

The luge is a risky activity. You're going down on your back at very high speeds. They put in all the safeguards they can, but accidents can and do happen. It's sad that the guy died, sure, but what are you gonna do? Maybe it's just me, but the possibility of death or serious injury would definitely be in the back of my mind if I were a competitor in such an event. Whenever you elect into something, you elect into the risks inherent in it. It is what it is.

It truly is both tragic, yet somehow expected with eventuality.

It's like people receiving serious head/spine injuries playing football. Yes, it is a sad situation, but the truth of the matter is these are very real risks they are voluntarily taking, not unlike something as trivial as driving a car...

You never expect tragedy, but it does happen.
