Birthdays.

I love ice-cream. so very much. It became part of my life. eating it when i'm happy, sad, stressed out or too relaxed. Haha, yes, i'm kind of a ice-cream junkie. These 2 shop brand seems to be the top of the notch in the ice-cream world where people start to rate the no. of special flavours they have. which i totally recommend you to try. I never fail to tell the ice-cream vendor that i finish ice-cream within a month. and with a big spoon. That's it. 

These are the cards i made quite a few months ago for my friends for their birthdays. These cards remind me that i'm still in touch with scrapbooking. However, i haven't churn out a scrapbook page for this year and didn't even complete my scrapbook album. perhaps its time to go for lessons now? i need my life back. its really sad now with so many politics that just make me fear to do any political science electives in my future university course. So hard to keep up my own creative life which i slipping away further and further from me. and worse of all, i bought a cutter machine and so far i only made only 2 cards with it, you can see one of it here with the Fred Perry logo. which was pretty tedious. but i think my friend doesn't appreciate it. Oh well, time to jump start my creative life! In the sporty side, i haven't worked out for more than a month! horrible. with half marathon next month and a triathlon following that. Im so dead.

My very first long distance race: the 3km swimathon by Tri-factor at sentosa which was really scary for me as they had make sure you are really competent to swim in the sea which i know i'm totally not when i survive all the while in the camp's swimming pool which basically had nobody in. The competency test was required ad i couldn't find any qualifications that shows that i have swam more than 1.5km which i did before. I got head-on butt and suffered kicks in various parts of the body that i'm embrassed to mention during the time trial. However, the actual race got me pretty frustrated as i couldn't swim in the really straight line and the waves coming in from the side didn't helping much either as i kept drifting out the guiding line. my tongue stings a lot when i finish the first 750m of the race which would be solved with gargling mineral water and the whole cycle happens again in the next round as well as the next. I was kinda intimidated by "professional looking" people wearing real expensive swimming gear but the fear got away once i pass some of them. it shows thats you only need yourself to survive and overcome others in the race. ranked 70 out of 127 in 01:08:57.850.

My 2nd long distance race: the 25km passion run which i ran with my collegues was gruelling. Thank goodness for the waterpoints set-up at different parts of the race. I drowned myself with tons of 100plus to prevent cramps which i know would come once i stop. so i never did once stop and just grab two and ran. Ice mountain water means its a quick drink and a shower over my head. I did test a bit of gastric juices on the race and kept burping as i was really bloated from the water i drank. With high hopes of finishing the race, some posters along the way of ECP didn't help like the one outside the national sailing centre which reads: you think this is hard? Try sailing. But personally, with a wee bit of experience in saling during childhood, a marathon wins hands down on toughness. finished in 2 hours and 27 minutes.

More races to join this year, any interested race companions? (Hence, more broke. Marathons costs a bomb.)

 

As usual, card making is still the only way to get in touch with scrapbooking. Hope to make more all the time. sigh. Probably need to join some scrapbooking race to complete more projects.

2010.

 

 I love watching fireworks so much that i forget to take photos of them. extremely happy for my friends right now as they have finished their poly exams and will be having some off time and deserved rest soon. I miss talking to them and meeting up, its been 3 months already. Being in this job scope is so hard to just take some time off and do enjoy getting together with old friends. this year things are getting way different- unappreciative work, boring chores and routine.  Now, i'm on duty serving the country alone on this supposely recreational day.feeling ever so lonely and having so many things on my mind causing sleepless and hopeless when you are drifting away and some random but seemly important thought goes through your mind and wake you up again. I put off posting so many stuffs such that having pretty much nothing to say and this year isn't a postive one to work with, making it all the worse time ever.

This year however, i did something really really unexpected: i am signing up for trialthon and a 3km swimathon with a few half marathons to go as well. A really tough decision that cause yet another sleepness night, but finally i decided that this was the right time. if not now, then when? but my time trail is coming- 24 apr and actual on 5 may which made me a little worried with duties and things to do for the nation. so missing talking to people i missed. driving test this month also makes it more hectic. Hoping to scrap more this year when i get a all-powerful motivating tool (having this tool already have given me insomnia.) Now, i'm just going with the flow. sorry if you don't understand what i'm talking. i'm drifting away again.
