feel the beat Went to JRL today and spent about 3 hours in the cafe reading all types of mag and "enjoying " my fish and chips accompanied by a sinful cup of vanilla milkshake. It felt really weird reading Hollywood Life cos everything takes place in L.A and i don't seem to get into the hang of things. Sheesh... The folks in Hollywood must be really enjoyin the fun as they see Lindsay Lohan make out with some other A list star; Helen Hunt picking up some flowers at a florist; Brandon Davis out with Mischa Barton... Anyway, I decided to go for a run today. It has been a hell long of time since i last went for a run. So i just put on my Reeboks who have been with me dutifully for 5 years and it's time to hit the road! I had actually counted for 10000 steps before i broke into a run. Could feel the muscles debating whether to go on a strike or go with the flow of my breathing. Running gives you a sense of satisfaction. Even though i haven't been running consistently and the fear of losing my stamina is scary, I foung out that i could still manage 4.6 km non-stop despite a 2 month hiatus. Phew! It certainly feels wonderful to feel the breeze in your hair and the sun kissing your skin once again. Then headed to the nearby coffee shop and got dinner for the family. Thot i might meet him but no such luck. I like his dog... White and big, makes you really wanna bend down and hug it. I guess there's just no affinity. Chingay training was really fun cos you get to meet ppl from all over the island. You also get to ask some seniors about their studies and how they made certain choices and ended up where they wanted to be. Guess the whole soka community is just tight-knitted and very encouraging, and that makes you wanna be part of the scene too, trying to lead a cheer or count the dance steps out loud for everyone to follow. I used to resent going to trainings cos i thot i would definitely be stuck with a bunch of NTU, NUS, ITE and other older students. NOOOOO... I was so wrong! I managed to click with this student from Pionner JC whom has just completed her A levels. She is a very nice person! Haha.. and there's still Gladys, Liting and Huimin from ITE, Mark and Alina from NUS...Hope this friendship will be able to last for a long long time. I am just glad i did not just spend the whole of this holiday in vain. At least there is still Chingay and of course, the shopping. Hiak hiak! |
