yup... another activities filled weekend... =)
exhausting... but totally worth it!
the wkend started off with JH's surprise bday + going away party, organised by his gf. so very sweet of her, too bad JH didn't appear too surprised, which we all kinda expected since he's such a sharp dude.
it was quite a good party i must say. the place served pretty good food, plus the girl put in so much effort to decorate the place... well done! she invited so many hwachong ppl... its like inter-class jc gathering all over again... haha... good to catch up with them after so long!
saturday started really early (for my standards of cos!) reported at seletar reservoir at 8am in the morning for some jtc dboat race. no, i'm not rowing. i know nuts about dragonboat... i'm there as..... a drummer! haha... was trying ultra hard not to fall off the boat... the team i was rowing for didn't make it for the finals, but the other team did... the came in 4th. good effort!
i think i had so much more fun taking (silly) pictures with ja, nio & linda... heh heh... check out our damn cool saucony top.. its so comfy its like wearing nothing!
the hair band trio...
self-taken pic!
the dmeri db girls!
in the arvo/evening was karen & andy's rom party, at a beach cafe at pasir ris park. its my first time attending a wedding party, so its quite an eye opener... plus karen & andy put in so much effort to organise and decorate the place... very pwetty, and i'm sure they'll never forget that special day!
picture for the guestbook...
inside the guestbook...
me with the beautiful bride =)
dean with karen...
me with huey lee!
the few of us who stayed behind...
the rest of this segment is specially for EJ. this fella claims that he doesn't know jason mraz, and he wonders whats the hype over this singer... i wasn't able to sing any of his songs for EJ to prove my point... so this part is for you!! i told you once you hear the songs you'll know who is jason mraz...
his most popular song at the moment...
older songs which many people also know...
you and i both
wordplay
the remedy
see! how can you not know/like him?!?!

my run
despite sleeping in the whole of saturday, i'm still not well rested for work tmr... reason being... the run today...
shape run... its freaking crowded. my first time taking part in large scale running (contest?) thingy... (my other time was some singhealth thingy back when i was still on my research intern) i must repeat... its really very crowded. its no fun trying to squeeze through the crowd and literally come to a stop at places where the road is pretty narrow... grrr... totally breaks the momentum! i can't imagine running in other larger scale runs... like AHM, nike human race... both of which i already signed up for... argh!
well... on a good note... the goodie bag was pretty good... the girls were complaining about the weird shade of green of the t-shirt.. but i thought it was okay leh... check out the colour on the girls!
char and i trying to take photo by ourselves...
okay.. its easier with ej taking the pic for us...
with christina... this picture makes me look like a twig... its a good angle... haha
oh and i tried out this "recovery drink" that was supposed to replenish depleted glycogen stores so that the athlete can perform just as well in a second bout of exercise... not much effect on me leh.. my legs still weigh a ton in the afternoon :P
my special recovery concoction!
exhausted... bedtime!

Durian galore
went for durian feast on wed night, don't get me wrong, i'm not the one who is eating! haha... did i mention that i hate durians?
look at them go! haha... i was trying not the cringe at the sight of the durians...
haha... but i'm happy watching them indulge in the durians!
this is all that's left....
i had to sit in front of this and endure the smell...
nope! they're not apologetic! =P
kidding lah...haha...
i think the durian seller's service has improved heaps. if the durian served wasn't up to expectation, they willingly changed one for them... wow... talk about money back gurantee! haha...
Nutritionist's comment: limit intake of durians to 2 seeds per sitting. durians are exceptionally high in sugar and saturated fat! 2 seeds of durians contain the same amount of calories (energy) as 1 apple/1 orange/1 pear...
sooo don't over-indulge in this durian season!!

Yet another personality test...
Your view on yourself:
Other people find you very interesting, but you are really hiding your true self. Your friends love you because you are a good listener. They'll probably still love you if you learn to be yourself with them.The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.The seriousness of your love:
Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.hmmm.. seems like i'm very different from ah hu..... you can take the quiz here if you want.

housemaid
spent my entire saturday cleaning the house. sometimes i wonder why am i cleaning the toilets, mopping the floor, doing all the domestic work when my peers are out having fun, watching movies, tv, or even just slacking around...
i guess its all part of His plan to help me learn to manage the household, perhaps next time when i have a household of my own, i wont have to learn everything from scratch. looking at it from the bright side, i'm actually having a head start compared to my peers! haha... but this doesn't mean i don't miss the hanging out with friends time!
On a good note, i went jogging today. covered 4.5km today and i wasn't too breathless! i feel really good! i think i regained 80% of my cardio power... hehe... shape run here i come!

Pedi Sunday
went for my monthly pedicure with dean & dillian on sunday. although i said monthly, its been a while since i last went to pamper myself. reason being... i cracked all my toenails sometime back during a full day frisbee tourney... but its all grown back (90% lah...)
i must say i'm a bit disappointed with the pedicure place that i go to... all the colours i chose were out of stock... in the end i had to settle for 3rd choice... zzz this is bad service...
