HELLO I FEEL SO ACCOMPLISHED (:
ok so today early morning walked over to loyang to hitch a hike from jolene's father to go to the F1 pit building. reached there after a little detour. collected our bikes, adjust wdv needed to be adjusted and waited for the race to begin. even before we started, the 50km people come back alrdy which is like 1 half hr? o.o
ok so the cycling it was fine for the first few km. cos it was open road, so there were sceneries to look at. but when we entered the ecp area, it became all trees and trees and trees. so i got pretty sianed and bored and my ass was hurting like mad. but i continued cos got momentum. a little after the halfway 20km mark, this woman lost control of her bicycle and banged into me. i escaped with this 5mm scratch on my finger -.- she was rather badly hurt though. so i helped her like get a marshall cos it was a stretch of road where there was very little volunteers. then yah gave her my water cos she ran out of water and the next drink station was quite far. i am so nice. ok and after that, i couldnt get back my momentum so i started cycling like half leisurely. and when the ecp part ended and it was back on the roads again, i started gaining back my momentum. ok so i finished the 40km challenge in about 2hrs plus. faster than my estimated 2 half so im pretty pleased with it and i feel so accomplished. i can tell my grandchildren next time that their ah ma cycle 40km before on a bruised ass.
ok the week so far has been really tiring.
let's start on valentine's day. erm it was cs production's first lian pai. it was quite eye-opening la cos i nv take part in this kind of stuff before ma. and somemore all chinese. though i communicated with jolene and everybody else in english la. heh. and i think jolene and me are so efficient. sidenote: please remind me to get red corrugated plastic board. ok and i didn't have a date. went for dinner with my family and relatives who came back.
sunday went out with relatives and family also i think. aiya went out la.
ok school again on monday. didn't run cos need take cs picture. ok i think nth much happened cos i can't rmb.
weds sailing was cool. got wind got tide got current. just everything too strong. and i bruised my ass. explains the above (in cycling part). but it was a pretty cool sailing session. i capped many many times and i was tired from getting back up my boat. lol.
thursday i didn't go for the seminar that we all volunteered for cos i had h3 lab session at ntu. me and jochebed got lost at ntu but this kind man led us to the correct place. pretty straightforward kind of experiment. just got really tedious calculations. and i'm partner A so i need to do a formal lab report which i hv no idea how to but i will find out. i hv to cos the report is 10% of a lvls.
friday was a lethargic day. i was jogging at snail's pace during pe and the weather was so hot. june thaddeus and qy were absent. i went home after gp cos my head was aching and i was feeling damn giddy. the taxi driver was so talkative i had to ask him to ssshhh. went home slept, overslept and rushed to slumdog.
pretty good movie i must say. it's rather like a documentary but presented in a movie/drama kinda way to attract more pple to watch it. but then, the director was trained in documentaries so i guess the documentary training aspect came through.
saturday i went to watch benjamin buttons. the movie was quite draggy at the starting. and i think 3hrs is too long, especially for someone with a bruised ass. so i was practically lying down to watch it. the theatre was rather empty. but then, i went to klp, how crowded can it be? ok im not gng to say much abt bb cos i knw many pple want to and hv not watched it yet. but overall, its a pretty nice movie with excellent makeup. really really good. just a tad too long.
i wanna watch role model and marley & me next week.
ok back to maths ):
