“UNITY FOR JUSTICE”

You mean, just like that? No one explain anything to the members? If not because of the comments in my blog, I will be like one (or many) of the Aunties standing behind the closed grill looking so lost. So how about those Aunties that is not internet savvy? These are the people that falls to gossiping and only listen to one side of the story. This is what you called yourself professional? Please la! Where is the responsibility? The commitment? The professionalism? Ple.lea.se. la!

Through this past weeks of ordeal, I’ve learn a lot of things from all of you out there. Many words out there that I’ve never heard of and some are great philosophies. On the other hand, it is not easy for me this past few weeks moderating comments. At times, I have to stay up till the wee hours to approved comments. Sometimes, I have to play detective screening thru genuine commentators and so-called trouble maker. When my bandwidth exceeded, I have to forked out $$$ for upgrading. Even during a holiday, I mind never stop thinking of the crisis. It wasn’t like before anymore.

It was great to be back from a short holiday. I am sure everybody can’t wait to face the truth on Monday. Thank goodness classes is seen to resumed this morning. At least there is a little hope there that keep us going. As usual, I can foresee a little gossiping here and there. That is the human nature. God, please forgive them. For the teachers that continue with their classes, blessed their little heart.

Anyone care to explain what is the meaning of Yoga Body, Yoga Mind?

After a month of living like a lost little sheep, finally the official notice of Yoga Zone taken over by a new management is up. No doubt, we are still looking lost. Questions start popping up among practitioners. Will they (new management) still honor our membership especially those signing up Lifetime Membership? Will they obsolete the massage voucher we are holding? Where shall we stand after this? Shall just wait and see how thing goes after a week. Keeping my fingers and toes cross now.

I used to attend classes right after work and since I have a very tight working schedule, I can’t plan before hand when I may turn up for practise. To be safe, I have a bag full of my attire thrown in the car boot. Owing 7 sets of attire is a common sight for ladies (what’s more, we have 30 pairs of shoes in the house) but owing 7 towels is crazy. Or maybe that was me. *shrug* Ok. So I have only 3 towels. If any of the day the 3 towels is left at home, I am in a dead meat. So what do I do? Cursing under my breath that I wish they have a vending machine supplying towel. I know some centre do provide towel but in my case, it isn’t. To be less obvious, I just use my sleeve. Worst scenario would be having a stack of their (get from the toilet) paper towel with me. This is vending machine number 1 I wish they would fix in the toilet.

Vending machine number 2 would be selling rubber band. Lame isn’t it? I had long hair that is slightly shorter than waist length. Most of the time I never tie them up at work. If I happen to go for my practise that day, I am in a dead meat. Again. So what do I do? Cursing under my breath that I wish they have a vending machine selling rubber band. But, the kind soul at the front desk is always willing to be the ’supplier’. Sometimes, I really feel paiseh to ask for a rubber band as they are always out of rubber bands!  How pathetic that is. The torturing part would be removing the band from our hair as they tend to tangle up few strands of our hair. Guys are so lucky as they do not face the ‘rubber band’ problem.

Vending machine number 3.

G-string & strapless bra.

Ok.  You can stop laughing now.  I am not kidding you.

I cringe each time I saw other ladies wearing leotard and yet the visible pantie outline is so obvious.  That.is.just.so.ugly!  You bet I have gone commando several times when I happen to be on ‘aunty’ pantie or girdle.  And how about your spaghetti strap top that doesn’t go well with that nondetachable strap bra?  So what do I do?  Cursing under my breath that I wish they have a vending machine suppying disposable g-string and …. bra?  Siao!

What vending machine do you wish they had in your toilet?

p/s:  Guys, please don’t bother to understand my crap if you are confused. lol.

I have been thinking for the past 48 hours if I should step up and voice out something…. nice…. (just incase someone decided to shot me in my butt). I really don’t know how I should write or maybe keeping a silence is a bliss. My mind is definitely, absolutely, totally blank for the past 2 hours. I felt like myself just waking up from a terrible nightmare. One minute I am here entertaining myself in my boring blog, the next minute, *poof!* the traffic never stop coming in every single minute and for the whole day today, I just sat in front of my puter moderating comments. YogaJess recorded a new traffic record too! 1632 pageviews (normal days 50 pageviews), total visitor 428 per day (normal days hardly even touches 15 people) and the meter is still running. Updated: As of 12midnight, the traffic record is 2,453 pageviews and total visitors 581. 16 July 08 - New!!! traffic record is 3,059 pageviews and total visitors 688. 17 July 08 - 2,561 pageviews and new record for total visitors is 708. (errr… more and more visitors each day. *wipe sweat*) 18 July, 08 - 3,430 pageviews and total visitors is 1,055!!!! (I almost ran out of bandwidth. You guys no need to work issit? Some of you can camp in my blog for the whole day! Quick go to the bank! TJ bank in your salary already!) Updated 28 July 08 - How I wish the share market soars like the new traffic record with 4,937 pageviews and total number of visitors is 1,401. (This time, I get a notice from my hosting company to upgrade the server to accommodate the exceeded bandwidth. $$$ bye-bye money $$$). Update on 29 July 08 - 5206 pageviews and total number of visitors is 1,535. Update:Â 30 July 08 - 6,218 pageviews and total number of visitors is 2,056

I just want to ask, how did you people ended up here? I mean it started with Fei, Cassandra and Yoga Man. And obviously Cassandra pass my link to TJ and I presumed Yoga Man does the same too. If my assumption is wrong, please forgive me. I against my webmaster idea to disable the comment box. The main reason is because I am afraid I might be one of (TJ’s) victim too. After reading through more than 50 comments, I kinda have a clearer picture as what is going on out there. Well, there is always 2 side of the coin. At the meantime, I need to have faith in TJ to overcome his financial difficulties or whatever the trouble he is facing right now. I had spent about RM3.5k for the membership. Of course I do not wish to see him ‘die’. *tic tak calculator, wipe sweat from forehead* YZ, please don’t dissapoint us.

As for the Teachers, I am sorry to read what you’ve gone thru. That is beyond my comment and none of my business. I will still leave the comment box open and please, we are all educated people. No vulgar language, ok? Sorry TJ. The battle continue. 30 fingers pointing at one. This is difficult to ignore.

Short Talk: I think I better stick back to my usual blogging and not stir anything further. I hate to know the truth. Truth can hurt. Chill la, Guys.

Do you know kids naturally had a flexible body? I did not know. I thought flexibility is something you had to train. One year ago when I started Yoga, I found out the hidden talent in my daughter. She can do a beautiful split! My jaw almost fall to the ground when she was mimicking me in one of the asana.

Look at the picture. That is my 8 years old daughter in the foreground. Did you see that? She managed to lift her legs higher than me. Awesome!

I think I am the first person who walked into the premise. The moment I opend the door, I noticed that other than the down light shining right above the reception counter is switched on, the rest of the lights and I mean ALL of the lights is being switched off. Even the air-conditioning is not switched on at the reception. Can you imagine now stuffy it is at the front desk? Duhh, do I have to be so precised? I am talking about the Yoga Club I frequented in Klang.

I know they are trying to save the electricity but hey, when all things happen at the same time (read “Something Fishy” and “No Money No Class”) this is getting very scary and it send me a goosebumps seeing all this changes. Get what I mean?

So I teased Mr. GoodGuy when he handed me the admission card, “Why? Want to save electricity issit?” . As usual, he will give me a sheepish smile and followed by a loud chuckle from the cleaner too! LOL!!!!! ‘Electricity’ supplies came back like normal when more crowd came in. I know I shouldn’t think negative by consoling myself thinking that the center is just making a frugal lifestyle. I know it is hard. I just have to!

Namaste!

As usual when I reached the Yoga centre, I was greeted by two friendly looking receptionist with a loud “NAMASTE!” and an admission card was handed to me. A memo printed in bold was placed at the front desk caught my attention so I paused to read them a bit. It goes, “bla, bla, bla, terminated….. bla bla bla… names of the teachers….. bla bla bla…. terminated….. not allowed to enter the centre premises….”

After reading them, I look up at the two receptionist, the lady that previously sold the “Life time Membership” to me and another guy. So I blurted, “Did the Teachers resign or did the company terminated their service?” I was sniggering! It was a spontaneous act and I don’t really mean it! The guy look at me smiling sheepishly while the lady juling mata (rolled here eye) at me. She was really mad at me. Ah, well, not that I can help it. Right?

On the other hand, I think I can play tic-tac-toe on this week timetable. They have cancelled so many classes. Even the most leng chai teacher was on one month leave. OMG!

I wonder how many Yogini out there have the same skin problem like mine. My facial skin will look like a raisins and the skin will started to peel after each hot session. I have been avoiding Hot Yoga classes but unfortunately sometimes I have no choice but to attend the class. However, I’ve thought of an idea for those that want to practice Hot Yoga but had very dry or dehydrated skin like me. This method can also be used at home. All you need to get is a very warm jacket. Wear them over and tada, now you have a walking heater room.

It may sound like a joke but I think this is a very good idea. No?
