After the mental breakdown that was know as 2008, I knew I needed to make some changes or else … well I don’t even want to contemplate what would have been in that case. All I wanted for 2009 was to feel normal and be okay with myself and the decisions I was making. I needed to break free from the hole I dug myself into — a really deep hole. But sometimes you can’t do everything yourself. And while it’s really hard to take that step and admit that you need help, once you do, climbing out of the that hole no longer seems like such a daunting task.

For the past two months I have been following a pretty rigorous workout plan, which involved high intensity sets with low reps. But with summer just a little more than a month away, I needed to step things up. For the last phase of my workout program, I am going to incorporate cardio into the mix, via interval training. A friend of mine helped me put together this workout program, so I thought I would share with the world.

I happened to be looking for a better way to show a preview of my web albums when I came across Prototype-UI which is a suite of user-interface components. Their carousel component was just want I need to spruce up my site design. The only problem was that documentation on the site is quite sparse and it took me a while to get things sorted out.

New year, new me. I can’t help but be excited about change. But in order for change to happen I have to push myself out of this self imposed slump of monotony. It’s scary having to make a decision about ones future because of the fear of failure – something that I have let rule too many of my decisions in the past.
