The day we learnt about self-management

After the exciting NDP parade, Jocelyn collected all the SG50 discount coupons from the goodie bag and asked me out for an adventure! And the discount coupons happen to be for free FACIAL and SLIMMING session HAHAHAHAHA.

-cricket chirp-

At the risk of being judged we still decided to try the experience together! Doing anything with BFF is double the fun. :) In fact, Joce was quite zai about how to escape the hardselling from the sales people at the end of the session. Which is mainly to act like an obedient child who needs to get parental support for every purchase LOL

We tried the slimming session first which was supposed to take 2 hours from 1.30-3.30pm. There was this hilarious moment at the start. We were supposed to take our height and weight to measure our BMI on the charts. My most updated height is 175cm!!! And the tallest height in the list beside me was 172 LOL so my ideal weight was indeterminable XD Then it was Jocelyn's turn to take her height. The height measurer was lowered down and at one point it just stopped and couldn't touch her head LOL. We found it hilarious that we were off the charts in both directions. At last the consultant whacked the height measurer and Jocelyn's height was finally taken. On to the treatment!

The consultant first talked about our eating habits. She kinda said that our eating habits were quite unhealthy as we said that we eat stuff like Tom Yam and fast food when we meet up. Everyone knows that those are unhealthy but it would take so much determination and $$$ to be able to eat clean :( and who could resist the awesome Tom Yam Fried Fish Soup from Jurong East Market... Try it and there's no turning back!! LOL

First stop: Sauna to open our pores
This was one steamy hot sauna! At first we thought we were okay with the heat. But after 5 minutes (which seemed like eternity), we started sweating so much! I don't even sweat that much during 2.4km run. Sweat was just dripping non-stop in that sauna room. The towel that they gave us to cover our faces soon turned so hot that it couldn't be used too. We ended up getting out of the room sooner than they told us to, and feeling slightly light-headed :O

Second stop: Burning Blanket
We were wrapped in this blazing blanket that was supposed to break down fats. Similarly, it started out feeling okay, but suddenly the experience became horrible. It was like we were constrained in a straight jacket that was suffocatingly hot. I had to keep talking to Joce to distract myself from that torture. It was awesome to have Joce doing this together because I would totally try to break out from the blanket if I was alone. Too clautrophobic TT (Although Joce was so unconfortable and screaming in pain to have a proper conversation with me LOL) We decided that real exercising would be better than lying in the Burning Blanket.

Third stop: Fats electrocuting
This stop sounds the most scary but turned out the most relaxing. Electric pods were placed on various problem areas and a current put through. It felt a little like mild vibrations. I think it was easy because they didn't turn the current too high on us. 30 minutes of lying down in a quiet room was pretty good!

Forth stop: Debrief
The consultants tried to persuade us to sign a package over a drink of strawberry + oatmeal. That sour taste and clumpy texture actually felt like vomit to me, but Joce says the drink was super nice LOL. Nevertheless it was for increasing metabolism, so I forced it down XD. We managed to walk out of the shop without succumbing to the consultants (using Jocelyn's technique as mentioned above)

This session was supposed to end at 3.30 but when we looked at the clock when we exited, it was 5pm!!! And Jocelyn had to meet her very busy mentor at 5pm in town!!! She quickly apologised for that mistake but surprisingly, the mentor was totally understanding and ends up deciding to treat Jocelyn ice cream to show her forgiveness. I don't even.... She is so nice! -remembers the many moments where I got angry with Jocelyn for being super late on me hahahahaa- The mentor is just so unimaginably nice!!

OK it's bedtime cause KC is finally back and we are going Msia tmr to rock it out like case budz do!!! Jocelyn please blog about the facial part hahahah
