Logistic was really bad. not enough signage to show us the distance and the different sections e.g. Baggage and Finisher's Medal. Only got 5km signage along the whole run. The most "amazing" thing is "the finisher's medal is out of stock" when I went to collect... I was abit late cos I wasn't ushered to collect the medal. Only when I finished collecting everything, I asked the usher. There were no tents set up so everything was inside Millenia Walk. No place to do proper cooling down and no place to eat our free yoghurt. We were asked not to sit on the floor of Millenia Walk even though we were not blocking anybody and I was so pissed that I told the "helpers" who asked us not to sit "we need to finish off our yoghurts before we can carry our things away". That's the truth, I've 1 big bag of barang and the goodie bag which was not mine (cos i'm only supposed to replace somebody in the run). And yes, the goodie bag queue was so long and blocking everywhere as it curves in and out of everywhere.
I'm going to boycott SHAPE run (in addition to my boycott of SAFRA run)
I'm sooooooooooooo tired.
==================================
Some updates:
1. I've met the most paranoid patient. She's afraid that she'll faint when she walks to the market when I explain to her the probable hypotensive spells during the 1st 2 weeks of hypertensive meds. I spent 10 minutes talking to her on a single Nifedipine LA 30mg, and she wanted to talk to another staff who spent 10 min on her (she even ask whether the blood test will be painful and my colleague told her it'll be like an ant bite)...
2. I'm happy that my company has plans for me. I also presented our discussion during Strategic retreat to my boss and colleagues whom I dun really noe. Strategic retreat was at Furama Riverfront and I think it was quite well-planned as things go according to the timetable quite tightly.
3. I went for a FOC vocal class :P
4. I saw Yokes' rebonded hair.

Post #200: Happy 3 months :)
I think all girls like surprises haha. :)
Attachee wanted to meet me at another MRT exit today and i smelt a rat already, but forgot abt it after a while.
Then after that we went to PS to catch Wall-E. When we entered PS,
Attachee: i wan to go toilet to shit. think will be quite long, you wait ok?
Me: wah okiez, why quite long? you got constipation ah?
Attachee: no la. i wan to go to the downstairs one, cos cleaner. (we were at 1st flr)
(so we went down to B1 which I tot it's his "downstairs")
Attachee: i go first ah
(he walked v quickly down the escalator to B2, so i tot his "downstairs" toilet is B2. so i juz took my time to walk down. went to a pillar and wanted to wait there, so i turned 180degrees. i saw another shadow behind me turn 180 degrees also. then i turned another direction and saw him)
Attachee: HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! (pink rose in his hands)
soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute right?
Clarification request from Attachee: he used the time he went to "shit" to buy the rose cos he dun have time to buy before that. He din bring out the rose from the toilet, neither did he kept the flower in his bag all along :P haha
Eva (from the Wall-E movie) looking at the rose and the movie tickets. the water was actually on the movie poster, not we put one.
Pink rose for the 3rd month!
Celebration Programme: Wall-E --> Swenson's --> Anderson Ice cream
XOXOXOXOXO
==================================================
not much updates from me, except i went to run Safra Bay Run last Sunday haha.
and i decided not to run another "Safra Bay Run" anymore...
Next up: Great Eastern Women's Run, Standard Chartered --> both 10km. i think i'm still not ready for 21km yet.
Pre-regging... is still super tough. now my Saturdays are fulldays cos need to go nursing homes to do project. The Mandai one is not bad, the lady was SUPER nice and all the staff are nice. I'm abit scared of the Yishun one, cos got bad experiences with the staff :S

This weekend
Attended Yihui's party on Saturday. Went there with Kenny because I only knew that he's invited too. haha.. the food is GREAT, i like!!! haha. he catered from Kriston.
Bought him a wallet and a card haha. the wallet is very CHIO~ but before we left, we saw another wallet which he received as a present too haha.
i think if not for this party, our clique (i dunno how we form. haha! shd be a combi or the Go-Home clique and the angel/mortal thingy) would have just drifted even more.
oh and i realised yihui's sister was the ASM (assistant stage manager) of 黄城夜韵. no wonder she looks so familiar haha.
do u noe what we're doing? HAHA
us after the race with the "champion medal"
all of us (including xh's sister at right)

this is the route map
i tink it's quite a scenic route.

=========================================
Woke up at 5am to prepare for the run. I've been advised by some "more experienced" runners to wake up early to eat breakfast. haha i'm 乖.
anw it's my first marathon. forget abt those cross country during sec sch and JC :P haha. i think i've been training quite well for it. and i've completed the run!! haha non-stop running for about 1 hour. Although the timer showed 1h 13min, we din start on time. in fact, we're about 10min late.
at many points especially near the end, felt like stopping to walk. but dun wan to 对不起自己 so in the end, i ran for the whole event. the run started with me sj xh and xh's sis (wt ran with her fren cos we couldn't find her at the starting point). then slowly, our pace differed and i ended up running alone. i think from now on, i'll run with music. it's easier to run this way because i wun keep looking at the time.
borrowed huazhen's zen for the run cos it's smaller and more portable. and the earphones which i received from my NUSWS mates rock cos it din fall out at all during the run. and so i'm able to blast music through the run.
the signage "cheated" us for quite a few times. especially the "50m" when there's still 2km to cover. but i guess it's all these signages that kept us running. at least for me, the 9.5km at the last part of the run made me dispose the thought of walking. i like the last few metres where there were ppl waiting for their frenz and the finishing line looking very attractive. it was where i picked up speed instead of thinking of whether to walk anot. haha
then, we decided to look for wt who had actually reached home -_- haha. cos she stays very near and finished the run before us.

this is the route mapi tink it's quite a scenic route.
Now I've more reasons to tell patients to exercise at least 3 times a week (though MOH guideline is 5 times a week which I personally feel that it's impossible)
But, Impossible is Nothing. (haha i like the adidas slogan!!!)
i dunno why cloud sms-ed me during my sleep asking me about how's the run. haha i think he must have thought that i would have died during the run. HAHA. LC sms-ed me too, but i thought that hers was more of asking me whether I've completed the run. But cloud's one is more of checking whether i'm dead and whether he has lost a fren. HAHA

Reptily Run
I was jogging along the canal beside Jurong East Swimming Complex, when I saw a KOMODO DRAGON beside the canal on the grass...
eeeks! (haha the picture is not from me, just pasted a photo from the web here)
the one I saw had a sharper mouth and not so fat. haha. but still, fat. was around 1.5m. When I saw it, my first instinct was to turn back and run away, but being rational, I think I hadn't read on any poisons or human-eating komodo dragons before, so I decided to head back and continue my run. haha. My route was to reverse at the ending point of one side of the canal, so when I returned, it wasn't there anymore. Maybe it's swimming happily in the canal now... I think it was preying on a ka leng (a type of bird my mum calls this in cantonese, the black bird with yellow beak..) when I saw it haha...
and i'm not dreaming ok!!! it was moving and i'm quite sure it wasn't a tree branch...
i hate reptiles, especially those big house lizards who just appear from nowhere and then scoot around the ceiling/wall/floor. but sighting KOMODO DRAGONS is quite cool hahaha...
the last time when I saw a komodo dragon was my Pri 1 zoo excursion. I was already on the bus, ready to leave, and when I turned back, the huge lizard was crossing the road... -_-
