2009 Aviva Ironman 70.3

To complete 2009 Aviva Ironman 70.3, you will have to swim 1.9km, cycle for 90.1km and run for 21.1km.

This is totally crazy isn't it?

Apparently, there are many crazy people in Singapore! I went to ECP to support JH as it was his first time participating Ironman. There were so many people at the event! In fact, I had seen many women, taking part in this event. This is so inspiring. Some of the women are just so FIT! Maybe I should really consider taking part a Biathlon for a start. =p And, if it ever participate Half Ironman, I hope that my family and friends would be there at the finishing line to support me. Haha.

Anyway, I was at the finishing line, cheering for all the participants. And it's such a joy to see those kids running with their daddy for the last 100m. This is just so sweet, isn't it?

All in all, I had enjoyed myself as a cheerleader at the event. Haha.

But, I'm feeling kinda sleepy now due to insufficient sleep.

Should I take a nap now? Hmm...

I love Saturday!

I met up with ade and yuanmei for High Tea buffet at Lao Beijing yesterday. Though I am still having a stomachache, I ate quite a lot. I ate 5 fried chicken wings! Haha. I guess I must have eaten too much as I was having quite a bit of stomachache after the buffet. =( Alan and sis (with my beloved princess) came to Lao Beijing for the buffet too. So, after our lunch cum teabreak, we went to see Princess swimming! I think she really enjoys swimming as she is so active in the pool and she just keeps on smiling. So cute! I love to watch her swim! In fact, she was so good that the person told my sis that Princess should participate in the swimming contest! Wow!



Looking kinda confused initially...



I love swimming!



Enjoying her massage after swimming...

After that, Alan drove me to Celene's house. I tried to call her on her mobile to confirm with her of her number, but she didn't pick up her phone. So, I waited for her at the staircase. Luckily, she came home from jogging after waiting for a while. For once, Shixing actually came punctually at 7pm! Haha. Celene's mum was really nice as she prepared popiah for us. It was nice, but as I was quite full from the buffet, I didn't eat much. It was quite a pity. We had an enjoyable conversation before we decided to start our mahjong game!

As usual, I was quite blur with mahjong rules. But, I really enjoy playing mahjong with them as they are very patient with me. Haha. I bet my other expert mahjong friends won't be so patient. I think all of us are really getting old as all of us were starting to feel tired after 12am... Haha. So, we decided to end the game at xi feng. All in all, it was a great Saturday with my favourite people! =p

I'm loving it!

My wonderful boss

I just had dinner with my super wonderful ex-boss, Raymond and Jo they all. He would be leaving for Malaysia soon, so this was a farewell dinner for him. I'm just going to miss him so much when he's no longer in Singapore. During the dinner, he asked us if we would still remember him 2 years later...

And all I wanna tell him is this...

Boss, of cos we will still remember you! You're our super, mighty and wonderful boss whom all of us respect and love. Do come back to Singapore as and when you're free. I know that you have millions and one staff, but I hope you will still remember me... But, please don't remember me as the lousy sales staff can? Heehee. And hopefully, when you come back 2 years later, I would have achieved much more than I've achieved so far. I will work hard to achieve my goal. =p

This is really getting quite emo... As I was writing this blog, memories began to flood in my tiny brain. I could recall how scared I was when I met him for the first time. And I could remember the first time I cried in front of him, etc... There were many sad and happy memories. But, I know that it's a blessing to be able to work under him back in Compass Point. He had passed to me many valuable lessons and taught me how to be a better person. He's not only my boss, he's my friend and my daddy.

All the best to you, Boss. You're the best!

Farewell Dinner for Lina

We finally had our branch dinner at Kampong Chai Chee Restaurant. It was a farewell dinner for Lina and we had procrastinated it until today. I had specially chosen a Sovil Titus watch for her as her farewell gift. =p

Posing like J.E.

A group of satisfied diners

It was a great dinner with lots and lots of food. I was so full that I felt so bloated after dinner.

However, I had a major stomachache after the dinner. It could be that I had ate too much snacks in the afternoon. Argh!

Where is my You Tiao?

I can't believe it. Today is my FOURTH time going to Hong Lim to buy you tiao. And it's OUT OF STOCK AGAIN!

FAINT.

What else can I say?

Anyway, I have been eating a lot of chocolates lately. I realize I tend to snack a lot on my project days... I guess I seriously need to cut down on them if not I would definitely have a bad sore throat soon.

------

I was feeling kinda down last night. As a result, I did not sleep well and I was feeling real tired today. =(

And I think I have strained my eyes too much. They are swollen and in pain. Argh! I guess I should have just wear glasses to work, but I am just too vain. I seriously hope that my eyes would be okay tomorrow...

原谅我 萧敬腾

请不要分了以後还记得 亲吻过的承诺
你的永久 已不属於我
默默低头 那时我 很多话梗在喉咙
你的笑你的快乐不是我 爱太多想太多
我能感受 他比我适合
爱放了手 我伪装冷漠 比你先说分手

请原谅我 原谅我不成熟
不爱你是藉口 好让你离开我
请原谅我 好想自私将你占有
一个寂寞就给我承受 换你过更好的生活
请不要分了以後还记得 亲吻过的承诺
你的永久 已不属於我
默默低头 那时我 很多话梗在喉咙
你的笑你的快乐不是我 爱太多想太多
我能感受 他比我适合
爱放了手 我伪装冷漠 比你先说分手
请原谅我 原谅我不成熟
不爱你是藉口 好让你离开我
请原谅我 好想自私将你占有
一个寂寞就给我承受 换你过更好的生活

爱过恨过哭过也笑过
亲吻过你的脆弱
其实我比谁都要懦弱
原谅我 必须假装爱错
别让时间倒流 我怕说不出口
原谅我 没有解释太多心痛
别无所求彻底忘了我 爱原来要舍得
我 难过
我 才懂

I wanna go Japan too!

Kit and peng would be going for the Tokyo Marathon soon. I am really excited for them! It's so cool to run a marathon overseas! Most importantly, they will be able to see many beautiful Japanese girls! Haha! All the best to the both of them! Run with Passion and Complete the race with Pride! Remember to buy lots and lots of nice snacks and chocolates from Japan for us! haha.

Anyway, I have been feeling rather stressed out at work. It seems like I have millions and millions of things to do. Sigh. I guess I got to learn to de-stress myself at work, if not I would be going crazy soon. Argh!

It's project day again tomorrow! =p

A personality test...

Your view on yourself:

You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

Go and try this quiz yourself if you are interested. =p

A relaxing weekend

It was a relaxing weekend for me. I went for facial appointment on Saturday then we had family dinner at my favourite fish steamboat place at Balestier. After dinner, I went home with my sis so that I could spend quality time with my sis and Princess!

And on Sunday, we brought Princess for swimming! She was terrified initially, but I guess she was enjoying herself after swimming for a while! It's so cute to see her swimming! We took many photos, butI got to wait till my sis upload the photos before I could put them on my blog!

Times flies, and it's going to be a brand new week again. I guess it's going to be a busy week for me again, but at least, I would be going on leave soon! Heehee. I can't wait to go on leave so that I can truly have a good rest. =p

I just wanna buy my favourite you tiao...

Today is my 3rd time going to Hong Lim to buy my favourite you tiao unsuccessfully. To my disappointment, the shop is CLOSED today! Sigh. Is it so difficult to buy you tiao? I just hope that I will have better luck next Tuesday.

I love running!

I'm feeling guilty as I have not been running intensively lately. I guess I need to sign up for more races to get myself more motivated to train for longer distances. For my recent run, I have been running for only about 5km or sometimes, I will only jog for 20 minutes. =p I will definitely need to train myself to run much longer distance if I wanna participate 21km or full marathon again this year. At the same time, I guess I got to make sure that I do not over exert my knees such that my knees will start to ache again. I intend to run until I am at least 50 years old so I guess I got take care of my knees. =p

Or maybe I should take up a new sports? Hmmm...

Ganbattle!

2009 has been a challenging year for me so far, and I can foresee more challenges in the following months.

I've learnt a lot for the past 2 months and I think it's definitely a valuable lesson for me. In life, we have to learn to face many challenges, obstacles, difficulties and all kinds of people.

What does not kill me, makes me stronger.

=p

I wanna eat You Tiao!

I had a really sad lunch today. I ordered wanton mee and I waited for almost 20 minutes for it. In the end, it turned out that the auntie had forgotten about my order! What the hell. She even insisted she couldn't find me, but I was just right in front of her! Argh! And to make things worse, the wanton mee was so horrible. Yucks. What a waste of time and MONEY!

After my unhappy lunch, I wanted to buy happy food like my favourite you tiao. And know what? It was out of stock! So sad! Knowing that I'm very upset, my friends accompanied me to Don Pie to buy the pie! Yeah! At least, I got to try to Don Pie! In fact, I had happy snacks like butterfly bun and Don Pie! I didn't have a good lunch, but at least, I had a happy teabreak. Haha.

Anyway, it was a super tiring day for me. I went to office early in the morning at 7+ before I went for my pjt meeting. And then I went back to branch again in the evening! Argh...

I'm going to sleep at 10pm tonight!

A Painful Lesson

It seemed like they had decided to give in... Sigh. After spending so much time and effort on it, I'm kinda disappointed that this would be the final outcome.

I would never forget the incident.

It's definitely a painful lesson.

Happy Birthday to Weili, Chen Lye & Jordon!

I finally met up with my secondary school friends to celebrate Weili, Chen Lye and Jordon's birthday! It was totally a successful gathering as almost everybody was there! The room was simply too small for us! All of us had to guard our seats diligently and in fact, we didn't even dare to go to the toilet for fear of losing the seat. Haha.



Times are so bad that we could only afford to buy 3 small pieces of cake for the 2 birthday boys. Ops.



My dear sisters!



Chen Lye seldom joins us for gathering due to his work commitment. We're so happy to have him as our "rare guest". All of us have been playing poker with him since secondary school days, but we would always lose to him up till now! Why is it so? He's just so lucky. He is that kind of guy who can still get a Ace with 20 points in his hand.



What a crowd! Cheers to our Friendship!
