Training for 2.4km

Recently started to go train for 2.4km every morning with Kang. Today is the 10th day liao. We run on weekdays only. So 5 days per week. Weekend end rest. LOL. Sounds like a job to me. Due to running, I am sleeping before 12 midnight everyday. And waking up at 7am in the morning… lol. Healthy lifestyle?  LOL.

Every morning there will be tons of people at the park behind yishun library. Morning got a very peaceful smell. And the weather is usually good. Really want to thanks Kang for accompany me to run. During this short period I improved a lot.

Sec 4 - 2.4km - 20+ mins. Near 30 mins also have.
Early this year - 2.0km - 18 mins
1st day of training - Around 1.6km - 13 mins
5th day of training - Around 1.6km - 9 mins
10th day of training - 2.4km - 13mins 

I am actually quite happy with the results. Last time sec 4 really is cannot run. Now I think back, I think is just a mental problem. Because my physical size is nearly around the same as sec 4. Just that my mental cannot endure the whole 2.4km and I gave up running before I reached the ending line.

Really thanks to Kang who keep on telling me cannot stop running. Once you stop is bwang liao. At 1st we run a path which I estimate is 1.6km la. Then later we went to the mountain top to run. The mountain top got marking. Each round is 400m. So need run 6 rounds for 2.4km. But for me to run 6 rounds in 13mins is like using Ban Kai liao. I am reaching my limit. X_X. Hope by next week I can endure maybe 8 rounds?

Kang is going in NS next wed. So nobody will accompany me to run and be a standard pace marker for me. So now I wanna ask anybody interested in running? Time is either morning around 7.45am. Or evening to night time. Around 7pm. Location will be the park behind yishun library. Other place can consider la. But preferbably is yishun. Don wan go CCK to run. LOL. Anybody interested? LOL.

Singapore Toy and Comics Convention 2008

Today went to the Singapore Toy and Comics Convention at Suntec. I went there near evening time and the queue was damn long lar. End up I didn’t even bother about my pre-registered passport since we can enter without the passport.

The place was damn crowded lor. Very hot inside. See those sardines trap in the area… see liao also sian. No mood to walk. We just rougly browse through. I see so many people taking photo, so decided not to take photos. Just see from other people’s blog or forum… LOL.

 


↑ I think all these warrior dolls quite cool. But should be very expensive.

↑ Crystal wanted to buy the red hair doll on the left. It cost $700+ I think. Nice but super expensive lor.
[Photos from riuva.com]

 

Anyway, you guys can check out http://www.riuva.com/?p=1155 to see other stuff being displayed during the show. There are many cosplay photos too.

After the show we went to eat dinner. Wanted to eat steamboat but very crowded. 6pm, 5 person only. Ask us to wait until 7.30pm. WTF. 5 person is very small group liao lor. End up eat cafe cartel. Then later went to boat quay there to chill. Went to a bar call Bar-ra-cuda.

 

 
↑ Ordered one jug of beer. Kronenbourg 1664 is quite nice. Not so bitter like Tiger and other crap.

 


↑ Ordered Tequila Sunrise. A type of cocktail. Actually quite nice. The alcohol taste is not very strong. My camera not good in dark room. >.<

 


↑ This is how Tequila Sunrise looks like. ^^
[Photo from wikipedia]

 

Actually I am quite interested to try all the cocktails. Always drink red wine, white wine, beer… very sian. Cocktails taste nicer. We all started to play game and those who lose will need to drink it. End up its not like forfeit since the cocktail is nice and people don mind losing. >.<

And please avoid the mocktail call Virgin Mary. It’s actually a non-alcoholic version of the Bloody Mary. This is what I read from wikipedia… LOL. Although I never tried the Bloody Mary, Karkar go order the Virgin Mary. End up self pwn. Look at the receipe yourself…

 

  1. Fill a glass with ice.
  2. Add:
    • 1 tsp Horseradish
    • 3 dashes Tabasco sauce
    • 3 dashes of Worcestershire Sauce
    • Dash of lime juice
    • 3 dashes of celery salt
    • 3 dashes of pepper
    • 1 oz clam juice (optional)
  3. Fill with tomato juice.
  4. Pour from one glass to another until mixed.
  5. Garnish with lemon juice and/or lime, celery and/or cucumber and/or cocktail shrimp.

 

Like this comfirm die one. I drink one mouth only. Wah lan. Taste like tomato sauce with pepper. And the tomato sauce is very concentrated. Damn yucky. I cannot take it… =X   Remember little kids, Virgin Mary is for people with balls to drink one. I rather drink Bloody Mary which they use vodka instead of tomato sauce. Maybe next time order it as a forfeit for games… LOL.

 


↑ The bar still have live band. The vocal guy voice damn nice. The place was not very crowded. I like such environment. Can chill with frens… ^^

But you act according to your sense rather than using your mind, so you sometimes make hasty conclusions.

You possess energy to make comments that others are unwilling to, and you will throw everything to achieve final result.

Your weakness is that if you tend to be too single-minded, you can be too subjective.

You have a natural sense to catch the trend of the time.

Your sudden inspiration can become unique wonderful idea.

You tend to believe other people easily and therefore possess the pure heart of a boy.

You have a tendency to make your own way come through.

Unlike your smart appearance, you can be hard-nosed person.

You have very clear likes and dislikes of people.

You may keep changing jobs, but this will help you exhibit your talent.

Then all his frens will recieve a email from that website claiming somebody is secretly admiring you. Then you can write 3 names who you think is that person who admire you. But end up the website will send the 3 names to the guy who started this. LOL.

Smart is partnered instead with the lovely-but-lethal veteran Agent 99 (Anne Hathaway).
