Standard Chartered Marathon 2008

Alright!
I've finally completed my first full Marathon!

And I tell you, that would also probably be my last...
I used to think my dad was just plain irritating when he kept saying "Its stupid to pay just to go there and torture yourself"
Now, that phrase is making a whole lot more sense.
Really, running a marathon is not enjoyable at all, to me lah.
okay, maybe not that extreme to say "at all"
I did enjoy the first 10km and the last 10 metres...

Overall it was fucking torturous!
If they had made it much easier to quit, for example, place teleport machines along the way.
I wouldn't have finished the marathon...

Also, in 18 years, I've never drank that much of 100 plus in a day before.
I puke 100 plus out.
I perspire 100 plus out.
I pee 100 plus out.

Put my rants aside.
I'm proud to have done it together with Zheng Hui, Ken Tat, Wei Xing and my sister!
ok not literally together because I lost them early in the run.
and yes. I ran most of it ALONE.
Damn sad.

Anyway, kudos to the guys for completing a full marathon without even trying the half marathon.
They have some big balls.

And a BIGGER KUDOS to my sister.
It was her second marathon and she was still able to complete it even after having a recurrence of an old knee injury early at the 7km mark and she completed the last 20km with a bandaged knee!
That's Determination people.
wooooohoooooo!

by the way, I think my chip time is about 5hr 30mins.
I think its a pretty decent timing for me
BUT
I was slower than my sister last year :(
ok ok. I admit defeat!
I won't give excuses ok! (erm, actually I had abit of stitch and half cramps..)

OK!
now there are 2 lame ducks in my house...

Congratulations to everyone who has completed the marathon this morning!
Have a GOOD rest!
Its Hari Raya tmr!
woohooo!

NYJC Prom 2008

WARNING : IMAGE HEAVY!
about 10kg

Prom was a blast!
Prom was actually way better than I had expected.
but maybe its because my expectations was low?
lol

Post prom party was at Butter Factory.
Generally, the post prom kinda sucked
1. The college didnt book the whole club.
2. It was fucking crowded and there wasn't even a separate queue for us like the SC had said.
It was just poor organisation.
we eventually managed to get in after a loooong wait.
saw a couple of secondary school friends
music was good.
Overall, the night was CRAZY!
I shall skip the details.
But hell, it was the Craziest night ever.

Anyway, I bought my blazer from Hong Kong for only $120 from H&M :)
and if you're observant enough, I'm actually wearing the same shirt I wore during my Amkss prom.
$99 shirt must wear twice!
LOL

He and Wei Xing wore vest and both of them were arguing about who is the copy cat.
but I tell you, Alvin was the one who came up with the idea first.
He told me about his intention last year when I first sat beside him on the dragonboat.
LOL!!!

Back from HKG

Just got back from Hong Kong.
The weather there was super shiok.
It was about 18 degrees there and when we touched down in Singapore.
Its 28 degrees - welcome back to Singapore Derek!

Super sinful 4 days at HongKong.
Had Yum Cha there everyday. (dim sum there is cheap!)
Had roasted goose (with the skin) LOL
I don't know why, but I had Mc'Donald's there.
but I took only nuggets and fries.
Bad enough.

My sister was complaining about my hair at the back the whole time and she ended cutting it!
Now I have to go to a hair salon tomorrow -_-"

Prom tomorrow!
Hope it'll be fun :)
