It’s Golden



Wednesday was a dreaded 2 a day workout day.  Full body strength and conditioning in the morning was deadly. The first round is 5 minutes and its designed to fill you muscles with lactic acid. The lactic acid (is what stops muscles from doing work) leaves you feeling swelled and make everything difficult.  4 more round followed with pre-fatigued muscles. As terrible as I make it sound, it’s a feeling I have grown to love and seek.

I met up with Zora for lunch and had some Malay food. Squid actually. It was fully intact which was cool. I forgot to snap a picture though. After that we headed to the store named after Zora it was called ZoRaB. With Saturday coming and Catherine planning on having us over, I bought some food that I could eat, as last time it was pizza. No one to blame but myself, I didn’t tell them. Brown rice pasta it was.

Zora and I planned to go catch a movie in the evening, gold class. But before I did such, it was round 2 for the gym followed by the movie at 9:30. Round 2 sucked because my muscles were so fatigued from the morning and I was scheduled to do agility training and balance. 


Back to Gold Class.  We need this in Canada; I seriously don’t ever want to go to a normal movie again. With these tickets you are required to arrive 45 minutes early to pick up your tickets. Which is fine when you have a private lounge to chill in while waiting for your movie to start. Here you can also order food and drinks for your movie. While you can get your standard popcorn, why not order chicken brats, or a hamburger or heck tempeh shrimp, and of course a glass of wine or beer, its less calories then a turbo sized deluxe combo Pepsi.


When the time comes to be seated you are individually escorted into the screening room and the environment is evident that you are ballin. Huge lazy boys, close to 30 of them spotted in groups of 2. Little tables separate the chairs, and of course blankets as the AC can make it quite cold.


We watched The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. This movie was spectacular, best movie I have seen in a while. Although some parts I found predictable for me and other parts I found grossly disturbing (be careful if you are sensitive to sexual assault visualization, who isn’t though). Either way the movie was well done.
