Gosh. I finally forced myself to go for a run today. Haha. I usually do 3 to 4 runs a week, but after the New Balance Real Run and because of the gloomy (a.k.a. sleep-inducing) weather, I have been missing my runs. Haha. Anyway did a 10km run today. Shorter than intended though, coz of the stupid weather - it rained after 10km. So I stopped right there. Haha. Anyway it feels pretty good. Haha.

Ok I'm broke. Haha. Bought a N97 for myself yesterday. Yes it cost me a bomb man! Haha. But what the heck. It's about time I pamper myself again. Haha. Just one month and 2 days to my collection of my pink IC. Haha. Civilian conversion course costs a bomb indeed. Haha. But it's worth it. Haha.

Sat went to celebrate Yan Shan's birthday. Haha. Met up with Bernard and Qi Hui much earlier in the day to scout for her present, but as per normal, we took a million years to decide on anything. But first, lunch! Haha. Decided on Manhattan Fish Market at Iluma. The seafood platter was ok, but the most important thing was the prawns! Haha. Flaming Prawns leh! Haha. The actually use this mini-flaming device to burn the sauce on the grilled prawns! Haha. That was damn cool. Haha. But I felt that the sauce was too salty and sweet, but Qi Hui thought otherwise and cleaned it up! Haha. Oh the fried mushrooms are a waste of money. So not worth it. Haha. After lunch, we realised that we still haven't bought any present yet, so on we went, looking and looking. Oh me and bernard unanimously agreed that we hated Bugis Street coz it's really over-congested. Very bad shopping experience. Haha.

Instead of buying the gift, I ended up buying more stuff for myself! Haha. Bought myself a new book, wallet and CD! Haha. Oh damn I overspent. Haha. Anyway yupz, managed to find some gifts after looking for many many hours. After that met up with Vincent and Yan Shan before heading to Sakae Teppanyaki in Bugis Junction for dinner. Haha. The food was pretty good. Haha. They used LOTS of garlic! Lol. Hahaha. Super random. Was super full lah (partly due to the late and super duper filling lunch! Haha). After that went over to Iluma for dessert. Haha. Nice. After that went home le. Damn tired.

Yesterday morning had the New Balance Real Run. Haha. Ran the 15 km one. Met up with Chok Kee, Wei Chong for the run. But when we reached the starting point, we met up with Kheng Lim, Eugene Wong and Robin. Haha. Oh and I saw Yau Long and Wen Tao half way through the race too. Haha. Anyway, I did in it in 1hr 19min. Haha. Nice. Although the weather was excruciatingly hot and with the highly irritating beach run and with super heavy traffic. Haha. Though that was pretty good for me. Haha. Now for the Standard Chartered Marathon in December. Haha. I really can't understand why I paid to make myself suffer more. Wah my legs kinda ache now. Damn I shouldn't have sprint at the end. Haha. =X

Got another last minute call back last night. Apec thingy again. Damn this thing's screwing up my life.

But the good thing's that I get off for it (not that I need anymore of it), and I don't have to go back camp, which is so damn far away. Haha. Always look on the bright side of life. =D

Today's really impromptu. Haha. Sebastian just called me in the afternoon and there I was rushing back to camp. LOL. It's ridiculous. Worst than reservist call back. Anyway booked in all the way to Glochester Camp (Hub HQ) just for a photo shoot. Yawnz. Damn it takes like 1.5hrs to get there just for a 30min photoshoot. Haiz. Think it's ridiculous. And what's more, I'm on off. Haiz. I'm so gonna claim back that half day. Haha! Oh man! I sound so cheapskate! Haha. Anyway not that I really care, I'm gonna ORD soon! 5 more weeks to go, and 4 days in camp left (I think.. Although it may be less than that. Haha )

Damn sian these days. Keep raining, so can't go for running. Haiz. All the staying indoor is making me very lethargic the entire day. Oh and the TV's turning me into a couch potato. Haiz. Got to go out and get some fresh air soon.

I realised how much my maths standard has dropped! Haha. Took quite some time to do my JC TYS. Haiz. Got to buck up. Haha.

Today I overslept! Haha. Supposed to go for the NUS talk for returning NSmen, but I kinda overslept. Lol. Coz I slept only at 4am. LOL. Anyway so sorry to Zhi Xuan and Ji Xiang. Haha. Pang-sehed them. Haiz. Heard it was quite useless since I can't do the modules I need during special semester. Also, it clashes with Orientation. Haha. So yupz, I'm going to give it a miss and continue with teaching all the way to June bah. Haha.

Anyway going to APEC rehearsal later. Sian lah so late at night (or rather early in the morning). Haha. But yupz, I'm getting offs for this, so i will do it anyway. Haha.

I'm back to mugging! Haha. Finished inequalities today. Haha. Pretty easy yah. I need to be 100% sure of the stuff before I can teach right? Haha.=D

I woke up so damn early today coz of driving lessons. Damn sian. Slept at 3am, woke up at 8am. That's bad. Isn't civilian conversion course supposed to have more sleeping time? Oh and I'm sick of driving lessons already. Haha. Time to give myself a break. haha.

I think my 2IC's quite dumb (it's a fact though.. but he's pretty nice=D). I need to book in tonight coz of APEC. Then book out tomorrow night. Then book in again on thursday night. Then book out on Friday afternoon. This is retarded. I've been Sathe'd man! Haha.

Spent an entire day yesterday doing my holiday itinerary. It's the 1st time in my life I read so much chinese in a single day. *applauds*. Hope it turns out fine.

Today I was too lazy to run. So decided to give it a miss. Now I feel bad. Haha. Nvm tomorrow still can go gym in camp. Haha.

I'm tired...

I think I'm growing really old. Haha. Ok this is just a random thought that crossed my mind. Just came back from my maternal grandma's birthday celebration. Yupz, the food's great. But talking to my cousins, hear them chat about PSLE, O levels, blah blah blah... These issues suddenly sounded so foreign to me. But then again, these things took place quite some time away for me. Haha. I can't help but feel that this is the effect that time has on one's mind. We tend to forget things so easily. Haiz. Seeing my baby cousins, I can't help but feel OLD. Haha. OH NO. Haha. Oh and I realise that my cousins from my mum's side are pretty much on a different wavelength as me n my bro. Haha. It's weird talking to them. Not weird as in weird. But rather, we talk about totally different topics, so to communicate, I actually have to constantly think and think. Like they chat about poly and I will go ... *Blank* Haha. Quite tiring. The feelings quite different from talking to my cousins from my dad's side. Haha. Probably because my paternal cousins and me lead very similar lives, whether is education, play, and the place we live. Haha. We're all from JC's and all around the same age. Haha. So that makes communication so much easier. Haha. And we grew up playing together because we lived just next door! Haha. Those were the really fun days, where we could just call each other down to play every single day. Haha. Although we are no longer neighbours, we still live very near each other. Haha. So yeps, that's the reason why I'm always more at ease with my paternal cousins. Oh and I forgot. All of us are guys and yes, there are only 5 of us. So yupz, extra close. Haha.

Yesterday went out with 01 peeps. Haha. Yes! My holiday plans are well on track. Haha. Just nice that Suntec was having some travel fair, and the staff of ASA travel gave us quite a number of tips on backpacking and stuff. Haha. It's so cool. And how about New Year in Taipei! Wahahaha. So excited just by the thought of it. Haha. And yes there's more people going.. Wahaha. So far the head count's at 7. Haha. I want my holiday! Hahah
