YES! Man U won Liverpool! Was watching the match at song’s house. What a great feeling to win it at Anfield haah!!
Ok, the plan to Taiwan is confirmed. Leaving for Taipei on 11jan and coming back from HK on 16Jan. Hopefully I can meet my Taiwan friends.
Met up with the class on haji at huang lao shi mum house. Wondering why, that’s cos she has just given birth and we went to visit the little life. So cute sia… and the first thing all will ask is her name, Rui Ning. But I think we all guessed wrongly her Chinese characters, or ashamedly to say, we dunno how to write the character having returning our Chinese knowledge to lao shi haha.. but it was great catching up with the class and just understanding how’s everyone doing. Then it was National Treasure hunting. This is a damn nice movie to catch so go go watch it! SPOILERS revealed. A sequel might be happening, something to do with page 47 in the President’s Secret Book. So we were waiting for the credits to roll on anticipating something will be played at the end giving us an insight on the part 3, but to our dismay there was nothing! Seems like a bunch of idiots waiting haha.
Town is just too crowded, don’t like to drive in there.
Oh ya, pls do visit my friend’s newly created blog. An identity for those living in our area. http://www.bukitpanjangblog.blogspot.com

I am past my teens years! Thx to all who remembered my birthday. And congrats to my batch officers, first year into officership and 1 year after commissioning, keep up whatever good work.
Started on sat, bros came by and we had a small gathering. Thinking of it, it has been a little but long we never had gathering le ah. Thx for the cake guys!
At night, I went out with a friend. A good close fren. I’m sorry if maybe the timing was bad, you had a little bad situation going on. But we still went on, with me driving, to Clarke quay. The dinner from her was good, and the chocolate drink and cake after was too full le. Had to go on a stroll along the river to digest. We roamed about the crowded place and were quite bored le. Then we saw the Gmax. I was quite intrigued and said why don’t we try it? When we went there, there were a lot of tourists and queue was pretty long. So a bit disappointed, then came a friendly guy who asked us whether we wanna try the ultimate swing which was just opened. Somehow, I dunno wad happen, we agreed. At a promotional price he gave, since we were among the first 10 in Singapore to try, he ushered us up the platform. Took out everything from our pockets, we sat on the capsule tingy. Real scary, I guess I freaked out when the capsule was dragged up to the release height which I tink is about 6 storey high. And I get to release the catch and we will be subjected to Simple Harmonic Motion into Singapore river. I guess I went a bit hysterical up there but she’s so calm. Gosh. By the time we were up there, we were literally facing the ground, so when the catch was released, we flew down and up then down and up. Somewhere in the middle, we held each others’ hand cause there’s nothing to hold on except each other. I must have screamed a bit loud and sure I’m the more timid one. There were about few hundred of ppl down there watching us. Shucks I have looked stupid. When we were released from the capsule, my knees were shacking. And the friendly guy kept teasing us, asking whether we are together or maybe we will get together after the ride. Well Thanks but nope. But all you guys out there must go try the Gmax at Clarke Quay (they gave us promotional price so we could create publicity for them, thinking we might be the first “couple” on the swing.haha ;P)
A drink over till midnight concluded the day and it was sending her home. I am glad to provide the listening ear, it’s just I have no answers to your questions. Sorry that if I made you cry.
Today was great too, lest the heavy rains all day. K-boxing was fun with haoz, xl and shiwei. Hope seng is alright from his accident. Then dinner with family was great.
Ok, I’m tired but happy. This last year as a teen was normal, maybe because I’m way matured from teens. Haha. Time to start making new year resolutions.

Teardrops of joy and pain hit my shoes when I crossed the finishing line along Saint Andrews Road. 42.195 of torture pushed me to my physical limit. and I am prou to say I completed it in 5h37min!
Yesterday together with the usual guys from army, we ran the StandChart Full Marathon. At an eerie time of 530am we started the arduous journey from esplanade, passing by shenton way into marina south. By the time we made it back to esplanade again, the sun was up and we were reaching national stadium. By this time, we saw the Freaking fast Kenyans coming back. That’s a bit demoralizing for us. Then came the never-ending East Coast portion. (I am not going to East Coast for a long long time!!) the 26km mark was the u-turn point and then came my nightmare. Cramps started to form at my left quad. As I kept on running, it shifted to left calf, then right quad, then right calf then a cycle formed. Shucks!!! So it was walking, running, jogging, walking all the way back to the start of east coast. Enough of it, by the time I exited east coast the big 30 mark rang in my head, Just 10 more to go!! The 36km mark near national stadium was terrible too, with the sun blasting its heat on us.
Everything in my mind was just to go on, never give up, once in a lifetime thing, for you babe, heck the cramps, put lots of deep heat, hang on, for the finisher shirt. Slowly, I came to esplanade for the last stretch of 1km. turning into saint Andrews road was heartening cause you know it’s the end. With many supporters along the way cheering, I just sprinted till the end but in a very awkward position. When I crossed the line, I cried, so much pain and I could bear it through!
The aftermath was terrible. All my legs muscles were sore. I had difficulty walking, not to say sitting and standing. Exchanging for the finisher shirt and medal, I was a hot shower at SRC. It was the best feeling you can get after a strenuous activity. The 5 of us have completed the marathon and I am glad we all made it. And yes choon kai, no more marathons. I just want to prove that I can do it! The drive back home was a little bit dangerous that’s all.
And presenting to you…
Now, my whole body is aching so much, I’m asking myself why did I torture myself in the first place?
