Week 1 of post-exam activities!
On Sunday did a ride down to Adam Rd to meet sis and she brought me on a half Mandai loop. I was back in 1hr15min. So fast!
Monday ate a super full late lunch with sis n mok at novena fish n co! yummmmmy! Swam w leewei in the evening but didn't run. Lazy me!
Tuesday swam in the morning w suechee rod hM ben! Was a happy girl cuz I stayed in the water for realllllyyy long :) great weather! Went for dinner w ttk at crystal jade. So full. Came back n tackled 2 rounds of ntu w rod. Packed stuffs till pretty late at night.
Wednesday, tried to swim for half an hr only before it poured. I was with sis so I drove her in the van to NIE for her talk before driving back (on my own!) and parking at our hall! Hmmm I took a few tries but it was perfect parking! Will upload pics nxt time haha. Lunch at NIE. Grilled fish is very nice. I'll eat it next time!
We shifted the fridge all on our own! Although yarh larh sis was doing most of the work haha. Shifted everything in record time! (we were kinda rushed for time also) Never sweated so much before! Pouring sweat...... By the time I reached back, it was 6pm. Went for a 199 route-cum-check-out-the-small-park run. But half way I really wanted to go toilet. So I ran away to the toilet back in hall n thought I was gonna explode cuz I felt I was radiating so much heat! Gave the swim a miss cuz it was pretty late. What a tiring day.
Thursday rained in the morning so went to swim w sue n rod n leewei only later in the morn. IMs are getting not as scary as they used to be :) Sis came to pick me and I drove the van to SSC! So scary. Home in the evening where I just ended up packing all my stuffs at home and sleeping early.
Friday, met leewei at 7.15am at my hse n we cycled to bedok jetty to meet rod and then cycled thru the city to botanic gardens to say hi to the rest of the bi team! It was good to see them :) altho i'll never cycle thru town again. So scary. Thank goodness for rod leading the way. Felt alot safer haHA.
Botanic gardens was nice, with the lilypads!!
Found my way back to adam road and cycled back via macritchie. Really fun! travelling up to 40km/hr (i think cuz my cateye is abit crazy) up and down the slopes of lornie road. And then the big big slope downwards at macritchie outside! Woooosh! shoik-est part of yesterday's ride :)
Came back and sis came back not long after. Headed off to pick dad, pick cassandra, lunch at balestier, then to mok's hse, then airport, where the problem with the tix, thus they only entered like 40mins before the plane left. Haha!
Met hM and edmund at airport! Ate hM's muffins in the staff canteen while the others ate. After loitering around awhile, (swine flu!) went back via bus which took, uh rather long. Reached home like 5.30+ and went for my usual 9.2km run. I dunno what was wrong with my right foot (already weird tt day) but it got quite bad and I almost wanted to turn around. But I just went slow, relaxed and tried to not put too much pressure on it. In the end, it became better and I finished in good timing, considering I was held up at the traffic light and I sat down a bit to take off my shoe n massage my poor pain foot! :) And nobody ran by me, only cyclists!
Was somehow really exhausted and only did 2 sets of statics. Before I went to sleep early.
Woke up this morning, and saw the clouds were rather scary, lightning also, and dearest NEA's weather forecast for nxt 3 hrs said showers with thunder. everywhere. So I decided not to ride, (not to keen to join them either) and went back to a choppy sleep where I woke up every hour. But only decided to wake up at 11+. So all in all, I spent the whole morning sleeping!
Hope it doesn't rain later. Wanna do a short ride after my piano lesson!
Time to read the books I borrowed from rod and to plan my training programme.
ALL THE BEST TO THE SIS FOR TOUR OF FRIENDSHIP! hope she kicks ass and doesnt fall down!
happy birthday xiangting! :) and dad
