gosh... i love safra gym!!!!! it's so nice and roomy and they even provide free locker and towel. and i think i chose a right time to go, it was rather empty and i was the only girl there. the machines were strange and different from clubfitt gyms but the trainer was so friendly and helpful. spent a fruitful 2 hours there, worked out at almost every machine to burn some calories and make me feel less guilty after all the mooncake eating. shall make full use of the 2 more free trials at safra gym. it shall be ranked number 1 together with kallang gym.
i'm so glad i didn't study much for econs s. the paper was quite expected, nothing surprising and i had quite a lot of fun crapping, hope i didn't misquote any economists. yes, it's finally the end of prelims...
and i'm in love with fir's songs and addicted to running..

yay.. huilin we love you and we're so proud of you!! haha.. think we made a complete fool of ourselves at the airport yesterday "waving" our last-minute-made "banner" out of foolscap paper as huilin departed for philippines. all the way, girl! bring back those medals.
went to meet my darling van for shopping after that, monday seemed like a nice day to shop, but being the only patrons in the shop, the salesgirl was bugging me to try on more clothes and pleading for me to buy. scary.. combed the whole of far east, didn't buy much then walked to taka for more shopping and mooncake sampling. tried almost all the different flavoured mooncakes and shared 2 boxes cos it was buy one get one free. now my house is loaded with mooncakes and my mom is going to stuff mooncakes down my throat today cos it's mid autumn. right, it's time of the year to get fat and i'm already quite sick of it after the sampling.
thanks dear for the present, it's very pretty and sweet.. don't know if i'll see you before your birthday to pass you yours, which is only half existent at the present moment, haha.
what should i be doing now? studying for econs s? nah.. forget it..

yep, we did it, a good long 21 km, feeling so proud of myself now. started a few minutes late cos there was a long queue at the baggage deposit and toilets but not like we're competing against anyone. it was a rare experience to be on my feet and running up and down sheares bridge at 6 am in the morning though that's the usual time i run. then running along east coast park, just in time to witness the rising of the sun. then we turned to the roads, pass national stadium and ended with our familiar route back to the esplanade. yes, my knees almost died and the last few km seems much longer than expected, but we did it. thank you so much shine!!!! and we'll train for the full marathon which is twice of this, can't imagine myself doing that. hopefully i can still walk tomorrow, i still need my legs for shopping...
there may be no limit as to how much i can run but don't test my limits on other things. oh well, forget it!!
and yes, all the best to the singapore canoeists, especially huilin, you guys are damn zai and jia you in the philippines....

i'm back, from prelims. in a summary, maths was ok, except that i know i'll make lots of careless mistakes, especially for paper 1 cos i didn't really check through, quite risky for someone who can even press her calculator wrongly. chemistry was hard, as expected, but i think physics is worse, maybe it just goes to show my lack of physics brain cells, econs case study was a crap, what i wrote didn't even make sense to me and i can't imagine myself sitting in the hall again next week for 3 more hours of econs crapping.
at least i had a good break yesterday, 5 whole hours of singing and of course i'm not complaining. finally, i'm 18 haha thank you so much for all those people who remembered my birthday despite the fact that it was during prelims, i'm so touched. i feel older now, legal to do so many things but it also means i have to pay adult rate for gym and swimming pool.
looking forward to: my first half marathon

tomorrow will mark the start of prelims. time flies... sigh am i prepared for prelims? no. so much information to squeeze into my puny brain in such a short time and i foresee tuesday will be a killer. chem department is all out to kill, even ms lee says don't expect too much for chem prelims cos it's going to be hard and study hard for As. oh well...

Saturday 4 September 2004

haven't been blogging for a long, long time, my life now is so boring that there is nothing to blog about unless i want to complain about prelims and how there's not much time left to mug. sigh.. i guess that's what j2 life is all about, i'm not complaining because its of no use. just face it and move on.
i'm looking forward to after 'A's, it's always good to plan ahead so you'll have something to look forward to, malacca trip, half and full marathon which i have no idea if i can last through, and the possible back-packing trip. not forgetting all the freedom and time i have to shop, play, and do everything that i want. life will be great. so let me get through this first...
