Here I come again.....

Feeling utterly bored on a Sat!
Woke up at 9am (instead of 7am to do my run) coz I was so tired last night. The Barker's run compounded by little sleep the previous night due to Ed Psych essay enabled me to sleep so soundly till this morning! :)

That Jonana not available for our long awaited high-tea session and I have the afternoon free. Waiting for the ODACians next move in their RITE so I can meet them for a short while. Meanwhile, I'm 'buah long longing' at home. This is crazy lor.....I think after all the hoo ha over my assignments in the last few weeks my whole system has to re-adjust to the 'more relaxed' mode. Haha...can relax now but don't know how to! So silly and bizzare!
It always happens. When I'm free and want to meet up with people, somehow these people are not free! Then when they ask me out, I'm not available. Timing usually this salah parking lor. And I want to have time alone, people will also ask me out! But when I don't want to be alone (like now!) i don't know who's free and wat to do!. gosh....

Anyhow, thank God for the avenue to blog! Haha..at least there's something for me to wild my time away and its purposeful. So I will update on the Barker's run yesterday evening. And because of the run, I had to miss BYO which I'm sure was great fun! Nonetheless, I had fun with my team during the run too.

The run was just 600m (middle distance) and I am not a sprinter or middle distance runner. So it was extremely painful to chiong. Well its not possible to sprint the whole 600m lah but it requires longer stride and more speed as compared to long distance run..DUH! So not quite used to it but I still went for it. Always good to try out different things and learn more. Such training in future would benefit me when I do my long distance runs.

The team of wild horses with Mr C. Kunalan - our very homegrown sprinter.

Always an inspiration and role model :)

The few of us goofing around after our run.

As usual. A bunch of posers

We won the Men Doubles event with Kenny-ball and Kok Soon leading the pack! coolios lor!
Forfeited the Women Doubles coz I was the only gal representing the class (what's new!) but highly unlikely we will win even if we take part ..haha
Then for the team's event comprising Wilfred, Gideon, Yu Chze and myself, we didn't come in Top 3 but still ran our best. Proud of each and everyone of us!

Barker's Run marks the last of the Inter-class events for this semester. Quite relieved coz that means less weekdays evening taken up by the games haha and I can do my other things. But that means I have to keep engaging myself in other physical activities to keep my 'engine' running. Yah means serious last minute training for the 2008 marathon man. Its the time of the year again.

Tis a season to be ACTIVE!!!

okie dokie..that irritating Jonana suddenly can meet now. So off I am to meet my bestie!

Wo(Man) of the hour

As I read the tribute to the late Dr Goh Keng Swee, I can't help but feel this profoundly deep admiration for this immensely brilliant forefather of Singapore. I was in awe of his contributions and how his influence is so pervasive in modern Singapore, yet so few actually heard and know of his legacy. The more I read on about what people remembered of him and his long list of accolades, the more proud I am to be a Singaporean. I never knew places of interests like our zoo, bird park and even Sentosa were his ideas! These are just a tiny fraction of his contributions. My gosh....it was just an incredible discovery and I was hooked to the Saturday's Special edition on 'Remember Dr Goh Keng Swee'. Strangely, my heart was pounding as I read and later reflected on this titan's life. Instinctively, a question came to mind i.e. will there be another titan like Dr Goh, Mr Lee KY, Mr Wee Kim Wee or the other members of the Old Guard in my generation? Will I get to see one em...

Count your blessings

I bought this set of keychain for my gramps. So cute right? They both love it to bits man! Haha..I'm proud of myself. A wise person said this to me this morning: "when you count your blessings, you will find many things to be thankful for...". True true. Been rather short fused these days and especially with family members. My grandma bore the brunt of it on monday when she suddenly appeared at NCC with my grandpa. I wasn't expecting her and so when I saw her, I was quite mean to ask why she was there when I actually know her intentions. I felt the way I felt because firstly I was already bothered about how to take care of grandpop when he sighs and worries about his discomfort and blah and then grandmop comes along and be herself (complain complain and ask same questions 1001 times etc). Double whammy! Anyway in a nutshell, the wise person told me early in the morning that grandmop upset that I brushed her aside that day, which I know was baddie bad bad :( ok i will...

Universal Studio

Thanks to YOG I got to enter Universal Studios @ Resorts World Sentosa ytd for free! Yes...rides were free and I had a $10 food & beverage voucher. Ok....sometimes I'm grateful that I'm a teacher because we are really one of the few professions who will enjoy such privileges :) Introducing the bevy of gorgeous ladies of Pei Hwa Sec : Miss Grace Tan, Miss Sophia Tan, Miss Shirley Tan and Miss Roslinda ! Don't you love the donkey ears???!!! WE WERE SERIOUSLY AMUSING OURSELVES IN THE SOUVENIR SHOP! Alright...this is the first but not my last time visiting U.S.S because I'll be going there again in Nov for my dept's learning journey. Don't ask me how we are going to think up PE lessons from visiting the theme park but miracles do happen! So after loosening the leash around the 51 kids whom we accompanied yesterday evening, the 6 female teachers (where are all the men??? tsk tsk...) went about to have a wild time of feasting on 20" pizzas, running after cart...
