~*angie's lil reverie*~

The moment of happiness!

Though I may have participated in many races, I simply love the feeling of crossing the finishing line of every race. The feeling is memorable.

Sundown Marathon = Sleepy Marathon

Most of my friends probably would know that I am more of a morning person rather than a night person. I can meet you early in the morning, but if you want to meet me for supper, I would definitely think twice as I would feel too sleepy.

Despite all that, I actually signed up for 21km for Sundown Marathon. The best part is, the race started at 12.30am - the time which I should be asleep on most days. Seriously, the challenge for me was not to complete the 21km, it was a challenge to convince myself to go for the race at such weird hour. Luckily, I had Jianhui, Alan and sis for companion if not I probably won't be able to make it for the race. Haha.

When we reached the venue, I was feeling really sleepy. I was surprised to see that there were so many participants. All of them must be crazy to sign up for this race, especially for those who had signed up for full marathon. I had tried Sundown Full Marathon a couple of years back, and it was such a nightmare that I sworn that I'm not going for Sundown Full Marathon ever. Haha.

At 12.30am sharp, the race started. It was quite a nice run as weather is cooling and not hot. I kinda enjoyed the run around the city until the rain came when we were at 16km mark. It inspired us to run faster as we wanted to complete the race as soon as possible. The rain was so big that we were all drenched when we reached the ending point.

I was really happy that I had completed this 21km with Alan and sis. A great achievement (especially for me) as I was so tempted to take MC for this race. Haha.

We went to Concourse to get the car and we were just too happy to change into dry clothes.

Happy runners!

Another 21km completed!

I was totally so happy when I got to have my hot shower at home! A memorable 21km Sundown Marathon.

I just don't understand why it would always rain whenever I take part 21km/42km category for Sundown Marathon. It's a sign. I should just sign up for 10km for Sundown Marathon in future. Or should I just give up on this race? Haha.

Happy Birthday to Senja!

Happy birthday to my Senja house! =p

On Saturday, I had my first run around Bukit Panjang! We ran all the way to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve under the hot sun. Though I was feeling really tired, we climbed all the way to the top before making our way down the hill. This Bukit Timah Hill is making me so tired that I really can't imagine climbing up Mount KK. I definitely need more training before our Mount KK trip.

And the best thing after the run would be our favourite McDonald's breakfast at King Albert's Park! After our happy breakfast, we went back to Senja.

It's a happy and healthy Saturday!

Conquering all MRT lines in a day

North-South Line, East-West Line, North-East Line and Circle Line. Yes, I had fully "utilized" all the lines today. It's definitely a tiring day for Jianhui and me today. We basically travelled almost every part of Singapore. From Sengkang to Toa Payoh, Toa Payoh to Expo, Expo to Suntec, Suntec to Clarke Quay and finally Clarke Quay to Raffles City. We were so tired that we were so happy to sit down to have our happy crab dinner at Jumbo. I just want to sit down!

And yes, my efficient boyfriend had applied Maybank's Man Utd card and he had just gotten his card! Err... As for me, my application form is still with me! Haha. We were so happy to collect the scarf at Suntec today! Yeah! I'm definitely going to bring this scarf to Old Trafford in future!

Part of our team bonding effort, we organized a trip to Newton Circus for a big feast! There were only 7 of us, but do you know how many dishes did we order? We had ordered a total of 12 dishes - Stingray, Hum, Lala, Mee Goreng, Kang Kong, Fried Oyster, Satay, Fried Carrot Cake, Satay, Fried Chicken Wings, BBQ Sotong, Fried Kway Teow! It's unbelievable, isn't it?

It was a great dinner with wonderful companion!

A happy weekend

Though I had only worked for 3 days this week, I was feeling super tired on Friday. Sign of getting old? Or my dreams is making me so tired every day.

On Friday, Jianhui and I brought Ailing to Nanbantei for Yakitori as her birthday dinner. As usual, food was good though it's a bit salty for some of the Yakitori. I had an enjoyable dinner and I'm glad that Ailing had enjoyed herself too! After dinner, we went to this shop which sells a lot of wedding shoes. I was about to buy a pair of wedding shoes until Ailing told me it costs $150 (after discount!). I was like... er... That's a bit too much. So, in the end, I didn't buy the pair of shoes. I had craving for ice cream and so we went to PS Andersens for ice cream. The ice cream at Andersens will never go wrong. It's definitely Jianhui and my favourite place for ice cream though we prefer the outlet at Marina Square.

As for Saturday, I went to Jianhui's house for lunch. Somehow, I always feel very sleepy and lazy at his place. I call it " The Teck Whye's effect". After lazing around for a while, we went to our beloved Senja! =p It's "officially" our home now and soon we can probably start renovating it. I'm getting very excited to renovate our house!

And then we went to Marche at 313 for dinner! As promised by Jianhui, he is buying me dinner at Marche! We ordered Rosti, Steak, Mushroom soup and Crepes. The crepes tastes kinda different from the one I used to eat when I was in JC and university. I guess I probably won't be going there for lunch or dinner in the near future. The taste changes, what never changes probably is the rootbeer. Haha.

After dinner, it's time for Avengers! It's relatively a very very long movie. It's nice to see all the Superheroes in a movie, but somehow all of them can't show their full powers since each hero is only entitled to 25% of the movie? Nevertheless, Hulk is damn funny in the movie. He really got me laughing in the movie. And check out this photo my friend posted on Facebook. It's hilarious.

As for today, Gwyneth woke all of us up early in the morning. We're going to Wild Wild Wet! =p It was all sunny and bright. Gwyneth truly enjoyed herself at Wild Wild Wet. Luckily, it only started raining when we were bathing. I was so glad that we decided to come in the morning rather than in the afternoon. Looking at the weather now, it's definitely a good choice to go Wild Wild Wet in the morning.

Now it's already 5pm. Somehow, I wonder why is it that weekend just passes by so quickly every week? I am so looking forward to Friday again!

Eat, eat and eat non-stop

After feasting non-stop for the past few days, I guess it's time to have simple lunch/dinner for the rest of the week to detox.

Friday: Dinner at Brewerkz

Saturday: Dinner at Ding Tai Feng

Sunday: Dinner at Ichiban

Monday: Dinner at Whampoa Keng Fish Head Steamboat

Tuesday: Family dinner at coffeeshop

After resting for 4 days, I simply don't feel like going back to work tomorrow. In fact, it feels like a Sunday today. Somehow, I kept on thinking that today is Sunday.

Wednesday's Blues...

Getting into the mood for wedding preparation

After "slacking" for 2 months, it's time to get into action for our wedding preparation! For a start, we went to choose my gowns for the photoshoot. I was very thankful to have Jianhui, Celene, Sis and papa Alan to help me to choose my gowns. Special thanks to Celene and Sis for taking off/leave to help me out. If not, I guess I will take at least 2 days to choose my gowns.

It's fun to try many different kinds of gowns. When I am wearing the gown, I would have the feeling that "I'm really getting married". =p I was surprised that I had managed to choose 6 gowns by 4 plus. I'm kinda efficient, isn't it? I am looking forward to the final fitting and photoshoot in early June.

And yes, I must make sure I lose weight (if not at least don't put on weight) by June! I must stop having stupid craving for fried chicken wings or fast food!

I am supposed to be on diet, but guess what did I eat for dinner last night? I had my favourite Whampoa Fish Steamboat + prawn paste chicken wings + Fried Toufu. Sinful! Ah! I really got to run more to "offset" the amount of junk food I eat every week. And to all my friends, please constantly remind me not to snack, okay?

After much consideration, we had finally bought F1 tickets! We are going to move like Jagger and PARTY!

Let's sing together!

You want the moves like jagger

I've got the moves like jagger

I've got the mooooooves... like jagger
