hey blog!

everything started today by dad's wake up call. today, mom isn't at
home in the morning because she went for the morning mass. it rained
quite heavily in the morning though. so i set off for training a little
later. i think i'm running out of inspiration.. less ideas for photos.
so i might be taking a break for now. and when i continue again, i'll
probably just do one photo a day. unless of course God gives me
something to work on.

so i reached mac ritchie at around 8.40 plus. it was still raining, so
i ate breakfast at the small shelter near the launching area. bought
the breakfast before boarding the bus for mac ritchie. for breakfast, i
had some mee with luncheon meat, once again. training was fine today,
just that the number of repetitions have been decreased to 25, but the
number of sets to 4. paddling was fun, cause i took a raptor K1! for
those who don't know, a raptor is a much sleeker, newer boat as
compared to the last version, which is named a tiger. what a misnomer,
it's kinda slow... hmm, so after training, we had to pack up, we took
more than the given time, so we had to stay in push-up position until
everyone reaches. i guess our team just has to be more efficient and
bonded, or else how could we win the nationals next year? but i believe
with effort, we would pull through. jiayou everyone!

after training, i went to eat at the chicken rice stall near coronation
plaza. and i found out the best, time-wasting method of eating chicken
rice is to buy roasted chicken rice, remove the fat from the skin, eat
the skin. that was why i wasted 20 plus minutes just to eat that small
little plate of chicken rice! okay, i'm totally lipid-phobic, if there
was such a word ><

so after that, i went to orchard to meet wenbo for HRP. i was there
quite early, so i went to walk around taka and wisma. oh, and i fell
asleep on my way there on the bus and i almost missed the stop. praise
the Lord! so, i first walked to Taka via wisma from orchard MRT. went
pass mirrors, nice smells from Famous Amos >< then i got to taka, went
out to the street, trying to find some sort of inspiration for my
shutterfly albums. can't find any though... oh yeah! before i got out
to the street, i saw Sophia! the co-fac of jasper. but i was thinking
bout something so i stoned and didn't really respond to her call. so
sorry!! yeah, so right after i got out of the door, i saw Kim Ng, and
one of those newcomer TV show hosts. i quickly got away though. then i
walked to the traffic junction between paragon and taka, finding no
inspiration, i decided to turn back and headed for the library. before
going to the library, i went to "fourum" where artfriend and stuffs
were. then i went to the library to look for magazines as wenbo wasn't
there yet. however, after i realised i was late, i messaged him, and
found out later when he called me that he would be very late and hence,
he told me to start first. so i started searching for the books. can
find only a few though. when he really turned up, he was 40 minutes
late >< but i can't blame him, cause he had farewell lunch with Mr.
Foo, who will be going back to ACS to teach. All the best there!

so after that, we tried looking for books. wenbo borrowed some of them.
we left the library at 5 plus, or was it 6 plus? hmm, not very sure
already. then after that, we went to kinokuniya, looked around and went
to get donuts from below. after that we went separate ways home. i
reached yishun at almost 7. then i took 812 back home.

i reached home, did nothing much till now, had dinner, and yeah, now i
have to leave already, gotta go shower.
anyway, i shall be turning in earlier tonight cause i think i'm going
to fall ill. and yanlin still isn't well!!! starting to get really
worried. please pray for her, school is starting soon...

see you soon!

love,
