by my own standards anyway. 4 days out of 7 must be a personal record. it's nice to chill with drinks to soccer, or live music, especially if i get to watch cikgu in action. wed at pump room was wild, everything was just friggin funny after suitable levels of alcohol intake. "bo ta bo ji" OMG LMAO. my korean darling and roomie. so friggin funny. fri's arabian style dinner with cikgu and family was nice too. and oh me & fats made it to cradle's album sleeve in the section where cikgu thanks people! i love him la.

later today there's xiaojia's microbrewery fest thing at gardenasia. i think it'l be fun. and i'm actually looking forward to spending some time with JX. we'l see how tonite goes.

helluva day it's been.

we went back to pandan reservoir, yeah that place where we did most of our running in our sec sch days, and did 2 rounds. 12.6km in total. i think i was quite high after that haha all the endorphins! that's a great training place.

at ICA to collect my passport. seemed like the whole frickin country was there, so crowded. 1281 ppl in the queue before me! total waiting time came to 4.5hrs jeez. screw peak periods.

thankfully i had nice company. i appreciate it, really. it is nice that someone would take the trouble to come all the way and sit on the cold hard floor with me. but i'm not all that ready for anything more at the moment. it's just all too fast. gimme some time.

for the semester yay. i'd thought it would be more fun than it really was but i guess with competitive sportspeople you're always gona get some who overdo it. it's opened my eyes to how immature some people are but i remind myself that these are probably kids, since mostly they're from the diploma/degree classes. it's only inter-class games for chrissakes. is there a need to try to win at all costs? whatever happened to sportsmanship? when i think about our occupation, i worry for our children. let's hope we'd all have grown up by the time we finish the course.

it's been 2 months since i last blogged in the old account. there just wasn't much meaning anymore. but i've decided i still want to write somewhere so mbe once in a while i can revisit the past.

school has been great, to the point it's a bit all-consuming. but i love it. got nothing much else to hold my attention anyway. fats darling, the crystals aren't working yet. maybe i really should put them under my pillow. but i'll bet mum's imagination will go wild when she finds those heart-shaped crystals under my pillow when she takes the sheets out for washing haha particularly when she knows they were a gift from you. still, i feel weird announcing that they're supposed to help in the romantic department aha. anyhow, i'll contend with ogling eye candy at school for now, at least sporty guys (my fave, after guitar-slinging dudes) are in abundant supply.

so for now it's just sports every day, all kinds. paid to play! it's the closest to being a pro athlete yeah, though i wouldn't think that way when we graduate and get posted to neighbourhood hell. we worry about that later.

quite pleased with my timing for the 5km shape run, i mean, alright lah, 29mins is within expectation. the great eastern 10k and new balance real run coming up and most importantly *drumroll* the stanchart marathon. i really want to complete it. i'm training as seriously as i can, and i will friggin get myself the damn fierce finisher tee yeah!
