Mine is not.
I resorted to taking Pilates classes to keep fit and I was very much satisfied with my experience in my first class.
Pilates makes you sweat out without you having to move around so much which is good for the joints. The whole regimen makes you carry your body relying solely on your muscles. Tough but very satisfying once you are able to carry out the routine.
Highly recommended for everyone. Now, Pilates is sharing the top spot in my best exercises list with jazz dance. Try it.

Believe in dreams, they still come true
This morning I was talking to my seatmate about how I long to travel to Europe and how I don’t have the money to do such. If only, I said, someone would come up to me and hand me millions of dollars and tell me to use it to travel to Europe and more.
My seatmate was quite cynical. She thought I would have to give something in return for the money, like dirty favors.
I said that wasn’t my idea. The money should be given to me just because; out of something that I won’t need to know of. Jokes, if anything was needed in return, were the only thing I could give. To give happiness through my good jokes.
And then, a few minutes ago, I went to the Yahoo! Website and witnessed the news from Good Morning America about this certain couple who met a stranger in a restaurant who gave them a blank check. They were told to write any amount of money they would like. They didn’t think it was serious but went along writing $100,000 on it and then validated the check the following day anyway. It turned out that there was indeed money backing the check and that they had it for themselves. The only condition they had to fulfill was to use the money for acquiring a house, and to name their next baby after their benefactor.
I’m not sure if it was quite their dream to have a stranger come up to them to give them money for no particular reason, nevertheless, I saw my dream come true to them and I’m quite pleased to know that my idea wasn’t at all impossible. It can and it indeed happened to other people. Now if that benefactor can only come to me.
Incidentally, I just happened to think about listening to the Beatles’ Across the Universe this afternoon.
Jai Guru Deva Om (some say would mean Victory to God Divine or salutations to the guru)
Indeed. Amen.
