Wii -addiction

At school I am way too busy at the moment to update the blog. I used to do a bit at home though not as much as I would have liked. Now though I don't even start up the computer unless I really have to. And it is a surprise at how little I really need it.

I'm addicted to the Wii at the moment. Xenne loves playing and we keep a track of how much he plays. I don't play, I love the Wii dance and exercise routines. We bought a few of those and for the last week and a half i do nothing else in the evening. Half an hour of this program, than that. Instead of being tired, I feel energised and often decide to do a bit extra. Regularly, I have to tell myself at around half past 11 that it is time to go to bed.

I'm not complaining though. I really needed to do more exercising. I used to cycle to school but apart from having to take two kids with me now, the roads are also much more busy. Many Yangonese now own a car. Unfortunately, the driving standards haven't improved yet. Walking is not really easy either. Again, busy roads, pedestrians are not really catered for in the streets here to begin with, and the parks are not attractive places for a walk.

The gym isn't an option. I often feel bored after a few weeks anyway and here the gyms are often attached to big hotels. The smaller ones are not as well fitted out. I would have to go right after school and then hurry to be back on time to take the kids to bed.

No, this Wii thing is great. Let's see if I can keep it up in such a way that I get back to blogging a bit more as well....
