Wow, can't believe that me and C actually jogged from SOC to UCC and back yesterday evening. That may seem a short distance to a seasoned runner but as far as i can remember, the last time I ran was last august, therefore it seems an unachievable task at first. But still, we managed to do so with some unforgiven walkings in between. At first I was quite reluctant to run along the road because I:

1. Don't wanna people, esp those I often see in school, to know how I suck at jogging.
2. Don't wanna hunkies on the internal buses to see the pathetic state I'm in while panting for life. (Imagine a red-face gal with her tongue almost touching the pavement and her flabbys meats dancing rythmically with every step. Pretty unsightful scene!!!)

Still, I gave in when I saw too many people running around the stadium track. Don't wanna obstruct the traffic there. But never did we expect that were so many mini-hills along the route. We were half-dead by the time we reach UCC. At the end, I felt shiok! I asked C "wanna run again on Friday?" and she shot me a "You're mad" look. BTW, C was quite shocked to see that I was still able to talk on my handphone (although a bit breathless that time) while jogging back to the starting point. I guess my routine back in July 2003 had helped me to build up my stamina.

Anyway when I reached home that night, I was totally exhausted. I went straight to bed at twelve after losing two battles in gunbound. Now you know why I wrote this entry only today.

My body aches today.

Damn. I almost can make it to 6 Days Tokyo next wednesday. Why does my mum like to procastinate? Right after exam last November, I have accompanied my mum to almost ALL the travel agencies in Singapore to look for a Japan tour package for Chinese New Year. In the end, we left with none. She either finds the package too expensive or the itinerary not good enough.

Today I called one of the agencies and it was considered fortunate enough at this last minute that the agent's willing to go through the trouble of squeezing out 5 more seats to already packed group. I almost gave all our names for booking and was supposed to go down to the agency to pay the deposit later. Guess what? My mum was sleeping after I left home for some resume talk in school. She said she changes her mind cos she doesn't want my bro and sis to miss the school on Monday. Down right disappointment!!! I was so fed up that I told her not to bother me with any tour callup again.
