Sundown Marathon 2011

After an evening run last weekend, I went for Sundown 10km run along Changi Coast Road. It was a smooth journey driving to Changi Exhibition Centre. As a result, we were early, we had time to take many photos at the starting point. :)

Happy runners (before the race)

When the race started, there were so many runners that it was so difficult to run, especially there were some runners (or walkers) who started walking right after the race was flagged off. As a result, Jianhui and I decided to run outside the barricade of the route. We started off with a fast pace. By 5km, I was already feeling so tired.

Finally, I managed to finish the race with my personal best timing - 1hr08min. :) It was a great achievement for me. :)

Still feeling as happy as ever (after the race)

And then our nightmare started. It was super jammed on our way out of Changi Exhibition Centre. As a result, it took us 3hours to reach home from Changi Exhibition Centre. Ahh!! By the time we were home, it was already 11pm! It's such a waste of time.

I am definitely not going to sign up for Sundown Marathon next year if the organizers are not changing the starting point or route!

Passion Run 2011

I have been feeling so lost that I am "dying" to go for races lately. And I am definitely so happy to go for Passion Run 2011 on Saturday! It's a beautiful evening with good weather. Jianhui and Papa Alan were there to support my sis and me too!

Throughout the whole race, there was nice aroma of BBQ food which was making me so hungry. Seeing people cycling and rollerblading along ECP, it makes me miss those ECP days. I used to go ECP every Sunday. I really wish that I can go ECP more often.

After running to Ford road and back to starting point, my sis and I were so happy to complete the 12km run! :) It feels good to complete a race.

After race, we went to Blk 85 Food Centre for happy food! We ate BBQ chicken wings, Fried Oyster, Satay and of course the famous Ba Chor Mee! Yummy! It was a great dinner, complete with durians bought at the stall near the market!

It was definitely a great Saturday! I am looking forward to Sundown Marathon this coming Saturday!

The Lion King

After staying up late for the election results on Sunday, I was feeling so tired the whole week. It's a sign that I'm getting old. No more late nights for me. Imagine, one late night is enough to make me feel so tired for the whole week.

I was so tired that I didn't want to go anywhere and I had stayed at home on my off day on Friday to rest... After resting for one whole day, I went to MBS to watch The Lion King musical with my sis and Alan in the evening. It was a great musical with great costumes, props and setting. I had truly enjoyed the musical. :) I was truly impressed with the musical. Before the muscial, we had a hard time find a restaurant to eat dinner. In the end, we ended up eating at Beanstro which belongs to the CoffeeBean family. The pasta was surprisingly quite good. =p

Life is good if I can always eat happy food and enjoy life...

A memorable Saturday - 7th May 2011

When I voted 5 years ago for the first time, I was excited but, at that time, I feel that my vote would not make much of a difference since I belonged to a GRC back then. This time round, when I was on my way to vote, I was nervous and excited. I was determined to make a difference. And I was very anxious about the results the whole day. I know that there would be disappointments no matter what's the outcome of the results. True enough, I was upset that we have lost George Yeo, Mr Chiam and Potong Pasir. Nevertheless, I am sure many of us would ensure that we would always remember their contributions and share with our future generation. Their legacy will always remains in our hearts.

81-6

Let's look forward to a better Singapore!

I love Singapore!

Jolin Tsai's Myself Concert

Thanks to Jianhui, we had free tickets to go for Jolin Tsai's concert. I am not a fan of hers. Nevertheless, I have always like to sing her songs in KTV, and so we decided to go to her concert despite that we were so anxious about the election results.

After watching her concert, I was truly amazed how well she can really dance! It's simply amazing! She must have worked very hard to be able to dance so well. *Applause* For the whole concert, she sang many fast numbers and I wonder how can she remember all the dance moves? She is so skinny and her arms are very tone.

All in all, it was a good and entertaining concert. =p

A long break

I was off from Wednesday till today. I had accomplished quite a lot of things during this long break. I must say it was a fulfilling break. It was a long break that I find it so hard to get into the mood to go back to work tomorrow. I would be expecting to check 200+ of emails and tonnes and tonnes of work waiting for me to do. It's a price to pay to take such long break.

I went on a cruise with my sis, brother in law and my dearest princess on Wednesday. We boarded StarCruise Virgo around 5 plus and it marked the beginning of our feast! The good thing about cruise is, you can eat all you want! Hehe. And the food is quite good actually! Throughout the trip, I simply enjoyed each meal. And this time round, we were staying in the balcony room at such a low price! It's definitely value for money!

On Thursday, we went to Redang Island! Just like 5 years ago, this island is so beautiful. I would love to come back here for diving someday! =p We went back to StarCruise Virgo at around 5 plus.

This time round, I didn't sleep that well as I could feel the vibration while sleeping. Is it because we were staying at level 11? Or is it because I was so tired the previous time that I couldn't feel the vibration? Whatever it is, it was a good trip to relax. :)

Beautiful Redang Beach

As for Saturday, I went to Bukit Batok to meet Jianhui. After settling some stuff, we went to Bukit Timah for a happy lunch. I love eating at Bukit Timah. All the food seems so happy and nice! :) Thereafter, we went to Cathay to watch the movie, Thor. It was quite a nice movie. =p After movie, we had dinner at Ichiban before we went back home.

On Sunday, we went to Mandarin Oriental Hotel to meet up with Bethany to make a final confirmation. It was a good meetup. I felt so relieved and happy now. After having lunch at Kenny Roger's, I went to Angelsky for facial. I was so relaxed that I fell asleep during facial. Haha. After facial, my sis and I went to Toa Payoh to wait for Alan to fetch us for dinner. While waiting, we went to buy our favourite KOI! I simply love KOI! If there is a KOI outlet in Vivocity, I would definitely queue up to buy it everyday! Haha. In the end, Alan couldn't join us due to his work, hence, we went to Whampoa Keng Fish Steamboat by cab. It was a good dinner. I was really very full.

As for today, I met up with my JC friends for KTV! =p Our last gathering was during Chinese New Year, so it was really nice to meet up with them finally. The food was K Lunch doesn't look that happy, but surprisingly, it's not too bad. :) Huiyi and I went home together after KTV as she is staying just a few blocks away from me.

As for now, I am just going to relax till night time.

I just don't want my long break to come to an end... Sigh...
