Miscellaneous….

Received a call from V yest noon. It had been sometime since we talk over the phone. Still full of craps. Haha..

Really missed those days when we will meet up occasionally for drinks but due to busy and packed schedule. We are not able to do it now. Things are like that..Environment changes .. Time never stops for us… We just had to move on.

I told V that his friend ask me why he is still not married till now. So i told his friend that ” Cause V had yet to agree take me as his concubine so he cannot married.””He cannot marry without my agreement. Haha.. V was laughing away when i am telling him that and tell me “just tell him i am a gay” I am like “oh ya..i never think of that.” Maybe he is too man to be gay. Do miss him thou. Really hope to meet up with him soon.

Weekly ride

Yesterday had been quite a busy day for me. Rushing thru the work….cause i had to leave on dot to go for weekly ride with A & Y & rest of the people.

Managed to catch the 5.40pm bus. This bus uncke is really good. From my office building to the bus stop is like a 5mins or less if you run abit. Sometimes, by the time i reached downstair, is already 5.40pm so is not possible for me to reach the bus stop with seconds. So i will wait along the main road and that very nice uncle will stop his bus and pick me up. “Bo Bian” if i don’t take this timing, i had to wait for another 20 mins or more for the next bus to come and that can be very frustrating. So pardon me, if i held up the traffic… for like 1 min or so… haha..

Ok back to my ride.. I left my place like 7.20pm… the traffic conditions varies.. i had to be alert everytime i cycle. Along the road towards Jurong Town Hall Road. I passed by the IBP. Think that sometimes i hope that the motorists or any road users, please spare the thoughts for us..cyclist. We are already travelling according to the traffic rules. Please at any junction, try to slow down if we are in front of you, don’t overtake and cut into our lane. This is really very dangerous and this is how traffic accidents will happen. This happened to me last night. I am travelling on the extreme left lane and this black Camry i think.. a lady driver, wanted to turn left into the IBP and me going straight. She just cut into my lane and turn left, i am glad that my reaction is fast enough to slow down or else..i don’t dare to think otherwise. I am like @#%@%#% ….

Met the rest at the usual place and we set off at 8pm sharp. The crowd is small today. There is about 7 of us. As usual, i followed Y. He is really a good pacer and along the way, he keep encouraging and show me a good signs along the way. That really motivated me. I am like panting throughout the ride but realised more “seasoned.” Keep had this barrier to drop off at the Jalan Boon Lay but somehow i did not. I just carried on with Y. This A**** keep saying to V” Later after the check point turn, speed up. Cause i keep reminded him cannot leave me behind. So he keep scaring me. Haha.

I hate slopes. We had to ride thru 3 slopes before the end of the ride. I am like “a-duh”.. Slope again.. Luckily, this time i had Y riding by my side. He taught me the way to handle the slope thou i don’t quite understand but still will try again till i am comfortable with it. From there, i headed home. I realised that after hitting the 50km mark, i could not go any further. Maybe that is my limit. Speed drop drastically… I just pedal and pedal and hope to see my block soon.

Tiring ride but gain something…

Just another day…

Yesterday managed to go back home by 8pm. After all the necessary things to be done. I decided to sit down to watch some TV programmes. Had been sometimes i had sit down to watch some shows on TV. Is not that i am busy or what, is just that i do not like the program that my sis will be watching most of the time. So i will chose to do my own stuff in the room or be surfing on the net. My sis always remark saying i only love watching rubbish show on TV..

Since she is away in China, i had the whole TV to myself and my bro will be hogging up the PC. Hahaha… *Think he also don’t like the programme i am watching so he to stay away from me.*

But i am so busy switching between Ch Newsasia..”Get Real.” I nearly forget there is such show.. I always love watching this. This week is on Internet chat vs Sex… “One of the interviewer commented on the net there are no real friend, they just want to get what they want.” She, herself as the victim <details not to clear>… become “destroying” herself over 50 over partners within a few years. Think she is really quite a poor thing and i feel sad for her when i am watching the programme.  

The next one is ch 8 – Think the title is Innovative King 2. Think these days students are really more innovative as compared to the years when i am still a student myself. During my years, our target is mainly on the schoolworks and nothing else. Now it beyond the textbook.

Another one is Ch U… watching the Superstars..for students. All i can say is give them credit for their courage. Given it to me, i will never dare to step on stage at all. Ha. Thou i had a good laugh over some but they are really so cute. Got to thanks them for giving us a light-hearted evening… 

In between, i did watch some SCV channel. Normally the show will be repeated.. so i still can give it a miss. Happen to watch I not stupid too…on SCV.. Watched abit and laughed abit.. the story can be quite true thou. See i had a busy night switching the remote control yest night. Luckily there is no one with me, or else the person will cursing and swearing at me. But i enjoyed doing it.. Hahaha.. Now i might consider having a TV in my room thou i know my sis will disallow it as we had already 3 TV sets in the house.   

Need some…

I need excitement…

I need changes…

I need more time…

Managed to have a nice break over the weekend (All by myself ;p).

Did lots of thoughts..like any short term plans..mid term plans… or even long term plans.

Short term plans – current still happy with my job – a change will come about if only there is a pull factor.

Mid term plan – *guess what*…want to have a baby before age 30..haha..lol

Long term plan – Be a “tai-tai”… wake up @ 6am . Go for a morning jog for an hour. Had breakfast with my baby – if have lar… then attend some courses here and there… learn to cook. Go for an afternoon swim and cycle around the estate till tired. Once a month must go for grooming like spa, hair treatment etc..

“Shiok men” the thoughts of it really make me happy. Thou i know it is quite impossible…due to unknown reason. Basically just to have some simple thoughts and at least i must have some plans mah …

Coming up…

Going for lunch @ Swesen’s – pre-celebration for MW’s birthday…Hmm..40 something years old.. He always called me 小马 and i always called him 老马.Muhaha…

I decided to settle for the grilled fish with samba. Godpa ordered the same as me..<copy cat>. lol.

He will says “hey, i am here earlier than you and i ordered before you,you are the copy cat and not me.”

Surprisingly, the portion is not as big as i imagine. Still, i do not have the appetite to eat.

Something is quite wrong with me, i seem to be dis-interested in very thing. Just wish that i am home now lazing away. Too bad, it just not happening to me.

I really think the world is so small. My colleague (TH) today says” Hey elaine, V****** sends his regards to you.” I am like”huh, you know him?” One is my current colleague and the other is my ex-colleague.

This is really a small world.

Motivated….Not at all

Went to the gym this noon – the reason is I want to rest tonight. I do not want to attend the cycling class. Lazy is the word.Haha.

Need to be pack my stuff for my retreat… yeah… excuse not to attend class…Promised J*** to go gym with him in the evening… and i wait till i am in the lift then i yet to inform him about not going. Quickly gave him a call but due to bad reception, i didn’t explain much.

Managed to reach home earlier than expected. Wore a pair of shoes that hurts me all day long. Maybe is a pair that i didn’t wear too often. The problem with the most of us is we tend to buy lots of stuff but seldom use. The main reason is we are so used to the pair we had been wearing.

Catching up later….to be continued…

Rides…

I gave up an expensive dinner for a ride. Along the way to the meeting point, i am like cursing and swearing to myself. “Why am i torturing myself in such manner.” Must to good to myself…

Nevertheless, i reach the meeting at West Coast Mac. I am like seeing all the experts and again i am telling myself ” Shit, i am going to suffer again.” Haha. S**** was with me tonight. She is a good motivator. She stayed behind me all along the way to ensure that i am ok. Y**** as usual is the baby-sitter and he is taking the lead and pace himself well for me to follow comfortably. Indeed along the way, i am like pushing & pulling trying to close up with him all the while. When he realised he is faster for me to catch up, he will slow down and allow me to follow up again.

The reason for doing this is to make me to go an extra effort to push myself for the extra mile. Really thanks to those people who is guiding me along the way. This round of the cycling, i am feeling better as compared to the previous time. Maybe due to the training mates who is encouraging me along the way.

The reason for me to train is because i want to complete my future races in a comfortable pace and feeling. I never like the feeling of demoralising during a race. In a race, it definitely not about winning but more about enjoying througout the race. So you will be eager to go for more. I am looking forward for more of these type of training. I believe, when i regain my road confidence …. i hope to do better.

I seriously had an enjoyable ride yesterday night.   

Choices…

I realised that i am hard to say no to anyone. I am told by J**** that my ex-ceo had invited me for his dinner @ Humble House this evening. Is Humble House you know. I been wanting to try out the food there. Heard from lots of review that the food there are so expensive but is very nice. Humble House had even been listed as an world class restaurant.

At the same time, this evening i am thinking of having a cycling training with A**** and gang. I would like to train for my OSIM this July 07. A****** had already registered for us thus i feel that since already registered, must at least make it a point to train. What for join a competition without training cause you will only be putting yourself at risk. Especially for people like me – A person without road confident.

On one hand i would love to attend the dinner as it would be very nice to meet up with ex-colleagues once in a while but on the other hand i had to go for  my training.

Seriously thinking over, i had decided to give up the dinner. Slept early last night so i don’t want to think so much about it. Hahaha… I got to say A big sorry to my ex-ceo/ J**** and D*****. Really wish that i can be at two different places at the same time. I really wish.

So fast……

Without knowing, the weekend is over. I had yet to enjoy myself and the next moment…i knew i am back to the office. OMG.

These two days had been a tiring day for me. I had to be elsewhere for these two days that resulted that i am not able to join the city duathlon.

Due to a long & tiring week, i am going to reward myself by going on leave on this fri… Hahaha.. So happy..Hmm… what am i going to do. I will let you people know in due course. (Hint: going to a small retreat)…I am going to take lots of photo – ai ya, just remember my camera is spolit. Going to get it repair this week but yet to do so. Not sure whether i can getit back on time. 

Nevermind, there is still a back-up…My sis newly bought camera for only 2 days. Don’t know if she is willingly to lend it to me. I am going to enjoy 2 days of natural environment. Not too much of city life… Hope this retreat will able to enhance me to think better over stuffs that i cannot get solutions for.

My problem is i really don’t know what my problem is – Complicated..But yesterday i learnt a valued lesson. I do not know how to put into words but i could really feel. In fact… when i came to know the value of this lesson, i felt so much happier. I kept thinking about it till i can laugh / smile to myself.   

Is a brand new start of the week and i am only be working for 4 days… hahaha…(p/s: i had yet to apply leave) but my boss is the kindest soul and for sure he will let me to go on leave… Is a last minute thingy cause i really need a break.

 No matter how strong you are, the battery will flat one of these days. That is why the word recharge come about.
