First of all, lemme wish those who celebrate, a very happy Diwali. May we be blessed and lead by the light. Feel like giving a short speech about the occasion, had a morning walk today, and head home for the push up event. That will be all for the push up challenge. Let's move on with my usual daily rant. I did mentioned I will cover a little bit about the #22pushupchallenge #22kill, I will reserve a small section at the bottom. If you're not about food and reading my outrageous ASEAN rant, please skip to the bottom.

Morning

Walk at the park was a breeze. Ever since the lockdown uplifted, the park is busier than the most popular mall in Kuala Lumpur, especially weekends. Everybody seems 10000% more health conscious. Having a public holiday at the middle of the week, does make the huge difference. I think majority of the working people are still asleep, so I get to enjoy the park.

Afternoon

Lunch took place at 3 Damansara, at the Rakuzen. I got myself a Salmon head and a bowl of garlic rice. I was having a short chat with @futuremind regarding my broken hard drive craptop, as I've sent them to the shop to replace my 240G hard drive with a bigger 480G. And the 240G instantly spark us a YT video regarding a heavy machine gun M240G. The boy saw me watching the machine gun video, and started to draw guns. Not that I'm not proud of the boy picked up so fast, but we should all know they're like a piece of paper. We adult are responsible for who they are when they look up to us. Can't imagine if I'm watching porn.

Evening

Well, dinner was take out from the noodle shop, but we didn't order noodle this time. Lunch was a little too full, so we shared a bowl of chicken rice, a bowl of porridge, a box of luncheon meat, and a box of Chinese sausage. That's about all.

#22kill #22pushupchallenge

Back to the workout routine, this was a social media campaign couple of years back. It's a suicide prevention activity reflecting on a 2012 statistic from the Veterans Affair office, which stated that 22 veterans commit suicide on a daily basis. Having know that wasn't the entire story, more importantly is make public understand these soldiers gave their youth and a big portion of their adult life serving the country. Not all of them are lucky enough to be able to stay back and become a trainer after their retirement. Getting back in to the society is not easy at all for them, not even mention getting a job. There's alot for them to relearn and adapt at the retirement age.

About the challenge, many of us can do 22 push up without too much trouble. Even if some lazy lad like me that stopped working out for months, still managed to do it. Now the challenge is, doing 22 push up for 22 days straight! That's where the #22pushupchallenge come in. Now, by right I am supposed to do this on the first day and start nominating people by tagging, and alert them on the #22pushupchallenge and what is it about, but I'm hesitated due to my current status.

My plan is to survive this 22 days as a challenge to myself to at least get this done. Who knows, by the end of this 22nd day I'm fit enough to start compounding my push up numbers and make it my daily cardio?
