My culture shock as a Thai living in Japan then was this: I crossed the street at the crosswalk and the car stopped FOR ME. And get this, I didn’t dare to cross! Waited a few secs to make sure, that’s Thai instinct for ya that any car can screw you over anytime🥲
Hang snatch is getting (slowly) better. The hardest part for me is catching the bar overhead while sitting down quickly.
I’ve only managed to be able to overhead squat recently and very proud😂
My dad’s friend just left from Bangkok, Thailand yesterday (30 April), DRIVING to Amsterdam, Netherlands by 15 June. Overall 22,000 KM, passing 37 cities on the journey.
Going to Phuket next month, staying in Nai Harn beach. Solo trip, zero clue lol, need all recommendation I can get🙏🏼
How do I get around the island!?
(I’ve been to Phuket maybe once, for one day business trip🤣)
When a friend you haven’t talked to since your high school year in the US suddenly said hi on Facebook, you highly suspect that they are planning a visit to Thailand😂
Spoke to a physiotherapist. She said majority of her clients (patient?) are
1) Office syndrome people who never exercised
2) Runners who never incorporated any strength training
Ladies, please don’t be afraid to lift heavy💚 It will transform your body and give you some muscle definition in ways that cardio can’t. And no, you won’t get “bulky”
Starting my 1st Olympic weightlifting sesh. Taking a mini break from powerlifting. Experimenting a new sport😃
Today my shoulders, arms are all sore. New movements eh?
The lady at the election booth checked my ID card, looked at my face (with no mask), checked again and said “you look so much prettier in real life” 😂😂😂😂😘
Some days you roll out of bed 11AM.
Some days you are up 7AM to the gym, get a massage, run a few errands, grab lunch before noon.
I like both. Both are equally important😌
I had been laid off. It was very predictable and we knew (Hospitality & Covid). As much as I didn’t think it would leave any impact, looking back, it still felt WEIRD because it was against my own will when things were going well. My job was the 1st thing Covid took away from me.
Banded deadlift with hook grip🥵
Finally the bar doesn’t slip away from my hands💪🏼
*No need to do hook grip if you aren’t a competitive powerlifter. By all means use strap and skip this pain🤣 (Strap not allowed in competition)
#powerlifting
First time doing behind the neck press. For mobility not for load. When you do powerlifting you end up feeling stiff everywhere so this is SUPER tough for me😂

I’m just so happy and feel so grateful for support🥰🥰 Great experience.
Brother on TV talking about his business and $3M funding secured.
Mom: You talk a bit too fast and use too many English words.
Thai-Chinese parents never knew how to praise their kids🤷🏻♀️
🎉Happy new year 2023🎉
If you set fitness resolution this year, start small, make it actionable (I’ll hit the gym 3x a week) rather than outcome-focused (I’ll lose 5 kgs). Easier to stick to!🙂
Practicing negative pull ups. My coach said hold 10 secs LOL nope I’m not there yet🤪
Goal > ONE bodyweight pull up
Upper body strength is my nemesis🥺
Outfit:
2 candidates supposed to come in for interviews.
Both cancelled 30 mins before, said they got "urgent meeting" even though they confirmed to come that exact morning.
Is this a common practice these days?
Lost my job because of Covid-19, along with half of my office. They paid compensation to all of us very fairly. As of now, I feel like taking a bit of a break and will restart again when I feel ready. Yesterday was quite an emotional day in our office.
Within less than an hour, my therapist noticed that I have conditioning on “I MUST do well” and a lot of “have tos” She said I don’t have to do it all and do it well, only do what you can.
For some reason that really made me cry.
When you stayed in a toxic environment and people pointed finger at you, they made you believe you suck. You are incapable.
When you LEFT that environment then you realized NO, I’m actually capable, and a lot more awesome than that.
After a week of stress, I was told by one of the VPs today that I seem like a wise person and reassured me there was nothing to worry about.
Little compliments/reassurance at work go a long way🥹
