Still Awake... Zzzzz

Oh my goodness...
It is 2.15am and I still cannot get to sleep after rolling over for 30min on my bed.
What the hell am I doing?
Zzzzzz .... I got to work tomorrow leh...
Wanted to call someone to talk but
everyone is sleeping already...
Damn me... I am super f.... wide awake....
Then I went to get a glass of drink and guess what...
2 bloody big lizards scared the wit out of me...
I just turned on the light and one ran into the rice cooker and hide..
The other went to some "unknown place" and hide...
I bet these 2 lizards were planning to meet up for a "chat" and
I spoiled their fun... haha...
But they definitely make me even more AWAKE....
Faint....

It is New Year Eve and guess another year (365days) is gone like that...
What have I been doing...
I need to do some reflections and also plan for new actions
to improve and upgrade in the coming year 2009....
Even though many people are affected by the recent
economic financial crisis but life still need to carry on....
As long as we BELIEVE that these things are temporary and endure a while more...
we will all pull through the tough times...
As I always believe this saying..
"Tough Times Don't Last But Tough Man (People) Do"

Guess I am going to slowly wait for the time to pass before I can sleep...
Maybe wait until 4am and watch soccer match (Hull City vs Aston Villa)
and then by 6am, go take a shower and straigh away go to work... keke
Ok.. Hereby I wish everyone a Happy New Year (2009) and
may all of your dreams and wishes come true...
Blessed with lot of peace, harmony, happiness and good health...
Cheers ^_^

Sunway Lagoon

Went to Sunway Lagoon last weekend.
Basically, just go there with my sister, her bf and mummy...
Nothing very interesting over there except just to
spend and waste money on shopping (not me of course)...
Anyway, it is good to go there to relax and explored a new place in another country.
Personally, I thought of visiting a friend there but guess it is too far liao.
Nvm.. got another chance next time...
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year.

Chicken Rice Dinner

Guess this is the first time I went to have dinner with friends after work on a Monday evening.
It was actually "last minute" plan once again....
But only this time round that it was REAL... lol
Haha.. at least I did try to make up by paying for the dinner and
glad that everybody enjoy the chicken rice and
the dishes at Boon Tong Kee (near Balestier Road).
Perhaps a little bit disappointing that we couldnt find a place
after the dinner where we could have some desert. Haha..
Hope that we can have another dinner (maybe duck rice, char siew rice, nasi lemak etc)
next time...
Actually, we walked by the places and it bring me to some "sweet, bitter, sad" memories.
All those things suddenly flashed into my mind when we were standing across the road.
Anyway, it was all history... I really glad that we are able to enjoy that precious moment.

Of course, I will be waiting for Ron to get his first pay check and give me a treat...
lol... Wishing all the readers/bloggers an early Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Cheers ^_^

I done it...

Till now.. I am still not convinced I have completed the 42km Marathon run last Sunday.
It is unbelievable to see almost 50,000 people took part in the run (42km, 21km & 10km)
I admitted that I can do better if I trained 2 to 3 months earlier.
Maybe the shoes was too worn out and old liao.
Maybe my muscle is already giving way when I reached halfway mark..
Maybe I am just lazy to continue with the last 12km distance. haha....
But I hope that I can improve my timing next time (if possible)
Anyway, I am very happy to have completed another "milestone" in my life.
Hopefully, I will be mentally stronger and able to overcome whatever obstacles that
is coming along the way now.
God bless me...

Standard Chartered Marathon Run (42.195km)

The day have arrived....
Now is counting down to the last 6hrs before the race start.
I am feeling kind of nervous... excited... haha
Hopefully, I will be able to finish the run in 5hrs...
Last.. please do not let me get muscle cramp or sprained ankle...
God bless me....

Life is like running???

I was running from woodlands to yishun on Sunday.
The distance was about 11 to 12km (to and fro).
I was actually feeling so tired... but somehow... I knew I have to run...
Something tell me I can and must finish this run...
Anyway, I did manage to finish it in 64min with a couple min spend walking...

==================================================

Today after work, I was thinking of going home and sleep early.
However, on my way home, I saw a girl and a guy running at the other side of the pavement.
Somehow, I knew I need to run as well.. So I changed into my jogging attire and went for a run.
Initially, I was planning to run 5km. Then I feel so tired and wanted to stop after 4km...
However, I challenged myself and tell my heart to finish 10km instead...
I almost "faint" due to dehydration perhaps... my right leg start to cramp a bit
and the ankle feeling a bit of pain... maybe these are just "excuses" for me to stop.
But I was thinking of something/somebody and realised that I need to finish this run. (10km)
So in the end, I manage to complete the run in 62min with some slight walking.
My legs was very tired and feel a bit cramped but no serious sprain... Phewww!

I realised running long distance is almost similar as reaching towards your goal and dream...
Sometime we tend to give up halfway whenever we feel obstacle (pain) is in front of us.
Actually we can do it... Our mind said we will do it... yet sometimes due to strong negative thoughts and ions in our brain, we tend (or choose) to give up.... Perhaps... giving up is not a
bad options and of course there is always a limit to whatever we do.. or is sky the limit?
When I choose not to do something is not because I cannot do it... not because I don't want to
do it... but because I choose not to do it...
We all make decisions in life... be it minor, medium or major decision...
Yes.. certain people may influence us.. but the choice is in our hand....
We can choose to do it (and may not make everybody around you happy)
yet sometime we choose to go ahead and do it.. because it is for our own sake.
We all know what we want in life... yet certain situations make us vulnerable or
hapless in certain decisions we make... We have to make decision to please certain
people yet might not make ourselves happy... is this what we want...
Life is really very unpredictable and vulerable...
Human can be contradicting and selfish creatures yet
they can be so selfless and gentle little angels...
well.. it is up to you to choose what you want to be...
You got a choice... I also got mine as well...
Hopefully, all will end up well and go smoothly for me and all my friends (and family too)

Lastly, I know that what I want this Sunday.
I choose to finish my run this Sunday ...
Be it I walk or crawl, I will meet the finishing line... Here I come...
Standard Chartered Marathon 42.195km run..
God bless me...
