right mind set to improvement

did 2.4km time trial today... manage to hit PB but not the timing i've been aiming for... from 10'13 to 10'08 to 10'05.. when will i be able to hit a single digit timing.. i hope it's will be soon... if i set my mind set to chase after the front person, maybe i will be able to hit sub 10min for my 2.4km but i kind of worried if i chase after them, my last few lap will be gone... but it's still good to give chase to improve my timing...

thanks coach for the BIG ang pow!!!

Finally!!!

Finally 1 of the group project is done... can't stand any of the 4 person project group.. today is CRS presentation, oh well... think never really screw out alot.. just that a lot of out of topic question from classmates.. the clever part is, i still manage to talk back... lolz.. that make me out of topic too.. hopefully won't score very badly.. kind of confident with it.. hopefully can get 'A'... B+ not bad too...

did 2 x 2km for training.. and it's like.. quite tiring.. but doing this workout, i learn to control the pacing a little.. like not running too far for the first lap...

A person cannot always be serious, sometime one must learn to joke around, crap around and maybe say some stupid stuffs.. i believe that will bring joy and happiness to life.. that how i want my life to be.. no more negatvie side of me.. i learn to enjoy my life now...

Argh!!! when is group project going to end!!!

kind of sick doing group project.. not pair work.. but those group project with 4 or more people doing it!!! hate it! not everyone is putting in effort for it.. some may give lot of idea but some just sit. worst thing is they do their on research and keep to themselves.. sometime they know they right in some point but just remain silent.. if u think u're right about something, just voice out! it's noting wrong!!!

U're so so wrong to say that...

How do people look at cca? to some people, cca is just cca which mean they attend for the seek of it. To me cca or rather running is something that i enjoy the most, having to see myself improving really make me happy and of cos having to train with a group of passion people and coach make me look forward for training.. that explain why i never miss my training. even if i'm sick, i'll still attend the training and if i'm really very ill then i will see what i can help with training.

At time, my classmate will tell me. Why train so hard? why make yourself so tired? well i never answer them cos they won't understand the passion in me. To me training is like studying i beg u won't want to miss lesson right? then some friends will say, seeyong u already so busy with study and work, why still make yourself so busy with all the training so no life... oh well.. i will just tell them, u won't understand.. i can't force them to think like me right? there's always reason why i run.

haven't been feeling well since last week.. getting better but not fully recover...
2 things runner scare, illness and injury... to those that read my blog only, do take care and eat more vitamin C to avoid falling sick... LOLZ

Friendship never fall apart

start training early today as i need to meet Elthea and Ronnie for dinner... it's been a long time since i met with Elthea my close friend that i met from Hush puppies back in 2005... Seriously mean to be close friend... we only know each other well when i'm in NS. Even if we never contact each other for very long, some how some way we need remeber each other. got a belated x'mes present from her and it's happen to be a soft toy.. -_-" do i look like that sort of soft toy lover.. but well is the thought that count.. had dinner at IMM together with her bf ronnie.. hmm.. know him through elthea few years back... we had a little chat outside IMM as everywhere is so noisy. before heading home we went to the night market and had a little walk. when i'm in the bus.. i kind of feel bad.. as she have been asking me out for dinner for a long time but i just can't seem to find time to meet her... she did make a little fuss about it but ya.. haha use to it liao.. well next meet up won't be that long i hope...

Comparing mindset...

oh well.. woke up early today and headed off to IMM to work.. the whole of this month weekends will be working there.. work was ok.. meet 1 auntie that seriously behave like Singapore auntie.. talk so loud as if i cannot hear her and a lot more auntie way... she reminded me of the auntie we met last friday at jurong.. we were ordering drink and i told her i want teh then she like don't understand. after telling her again then she finally understand and say TEH!!! in such loud tone. lucky kai yin and nic never go deaf... after bringing the drinks to us, she was like saying "thank you for everyone support thank you.." WTH.. 3 of us was so shock expect nic... he damn slow... i was like thinking.. did i hear wrongly.. oh well.. during work, i think about a number of stuff.. don't know why.. think maybe noting to do that why my mind keep thinking..

i know that in life we should not compare too much, but sometime my mind just keep thinking about it...

1) why my life is so tough.. study on weekdays, working on weekend as compare to people that can go shopping and playing in weekend and i wish i can join coach and seniors for the 10km run on Saturday (i know i'm not the only one)
2) why i can't be a better runner.. compare to people that ran faster and better than me (i know it's take time to train up...)
3) why am i single compare to people (being thinking why for very long.. and i know thing cannot be rush... just got to take thing slow)

Hmm.. this few thought were running around my mind just now... is it wrong to think that way? i mean sometime not all the time... different people got different life and i know there're much more people that is worst but just can't help thinking... brain wash machine needed!

Noting interesting today expect work so post for today.. video

Borat Tour De France



信樂團 - 不會消失的夜晚



not only rock songs, 信樂團 can sing nice sentiment songs too.. love this song the best

happening day...

During lesson
think today is the first time i my temper rise that high in class. we were going to discuss about the project and 2 of the group member start having a conflict instead of making it worst, i suggest we do research on it and see who have the correct source. i do my part doing the research, one of the group member already got the source but just sit there saying noting.. if u got the source and so firm that what u say is right then voice out and talk about it so that we won't be doing any extra research for noting! damn it first thing in the morning.. normal healthy day i might be able to control my temper well but not when i'm sick...

During gem
today gem lesson sound fun and interesting maybe because different teacher is teaching us today.. but lolz.. he nearly quarrel with the lab in-charge in front of us.. lolz.. oh well one good new, no gem next week!

During training
training was 3.5km in 16'40 sound ok but not when i'm not feeling well, when run less than 1km i already started to grab for air... after that i started to feel pain here and there.. lolz.. not enough oxygen??? didn't go on for 10 x striding as i really not feeling that great.. helped coach to time ling er. when come to the last set of her workout, i was looking out for her but i can't seen to see her. looking at the stopwatch it's like going to 3min for her 500m and it's of impossible that she run that slow. so i went over to look for her and the first thing i saw was her with only 1 shoe... new style ar.. found out that she fell down all thank to those people.. the NTU coach came over and apologise to her, well it's a good thing she did but actually she shouldn't. Those people blocking the way should do so instead. One thing the NTU coach said right, those KIDS don't know how to behave.. totally agree! NTU people? hmm must be la cannot be NTUC ma.. think we can behave better than them.. (mostly is those people in blue blocking the way so ya..)

had a talking session with coach.. been a long time since we sit down and listen to him.. what i guess was right.. he been different since gathering and i guess it's something is wrong after the event thingy... he said everything is his fault.. DON'T AGREE!!! it's take 2 hand to slap... all of us is wrong in some way not just coach himself.. it's already the past, let bygones be bygones.. i really hope training will back like last time with COLD joke LAME stuffs and maybe some COOL thing... this explain why it's haven't been raining during training too... i guess everyone will want to be like last time right? laughing, joking and feeling cold during training.. of cos not during workout la.. hopefully by next week I'll recover and start my extra training.. think i will train 4 time per week first then if my body can get use to it, i will move on for more training day.. haha i have been waiting for coach to plan amanda training then mine. i scare will give him extra work to do that why nv hurry him to plan my training with extra days.. but coach is waiting for people to ask for extra workout.. both side also waiting.. I've plan to start training extra day after standard chart.. before i move on to more extra training day, i need to sleep early.. already forcing myself to be in bed by 1230...

After training
had dinner with ling er, kai yin and nic.. was kind of crazy in train and throughout the dinner thingy.. was talking about how we first talk to each other.. haha none of us can remember what the first word we talk... come to think about it.. joining R2unners is a right choice as i've been enjoying myself with those crazy peers haha.. training might be tough but we play harder! it's a place where i can feel so stressless... let keep the club running!

Formal day...

well can't seem to sleep well last nite even i feel very tired... today is my first formal presentation, took a few photos this 2 is a few of it..



Coke is a wonderful drink!

did 2 time 9km today with a short break in between. Coach been telling us to follow the break time given and i do obey what he said, i rather be slow in my next set of workout rather then taking extra break. when i was running the 2nd set, i can feel the lactic acid on my leg at around 6 to 7km... i keep telling myself not to think about it and focus on finishing the workout.. it's do help.. was ask to walk 1 round before doing the strengthening... i should for walk a little slower to let myself grab some air... strengthening was kind of xiong as I'm still grabbing for air but thanks to the other runners that keep encouraging me to push on... been a long time since i shag out till like that.. think the last time was out in the field in army... was kind of shag when on train but after buying COKE from 7-11 , i feel myself feeling better... but think about the sugar level of the coke.. my god... planning to lose mass... so i come to a conclusion, no more heavy load for me. only use reasonable weight to ton up... And last but not least, not to make coach angry.. think i did it a lot of time... shit me...

formal wear for tomorrow presentation.. lucky it's tomorrow not any training day.. hopefully won't see kai yin tomorow.. always saw her in fc6.. kai yin you should know what to do liao ar..

illness go away!

oh man.. sore throat day 2.. starting to get running nose too.. shit.. think i better drink more water and recover fast.. it's not good to miss training and most importantly Chinese New Year is coming! don't want to NOT able to eat those cookies and stuffs.. lucky it's not very serious yet..

went to gym to do some light strengthening after lesson with that iron lady.. when doing the workout, i feel that i no longer can lift heavy load like last time. did 40kg dead lift plus 20 wide arm push up and it's like.. killing me.. oh well guess i can't compare last time to now... one thing for sure, i run faster and longer compare to last time.. think it's time to stay focus and bring myself to the next level of fitness.. beside workout given by coach, think i got to build up my core muscle to avoid injury...

Wat a word..

When it's time to play, I will play hard
When it's time to be serious, I will be serious
When it's time to be nasty, I will be VERY nasty

Someone said i'm childish when i just disturb and tease my friend a little. WTH la in the first place, do u know wat the word mean? do u know how a chidish person behave? In wat way do u think u're fit enough to call me that. if by cracking joke, telling lame joke and have fun with friend is wat u called chidish then u're insuting a lot of people! sometime u really boil my blood.. One good reason why i enjoy going out with track mates is because they're a group of lively and fun people even with age different.
