The Jog Clock
Today was jogging day, since there was no rain at all. With that I decided to switch a route. And boy was it a WONDERFUL day to change it. They just put fertilizer over the most stretch of the pavement that I was running, so I was inhaling oxygen, together with NATURAL FERTILIZER. How can it get any better than this? To think at first I thought I stepped on poo. Well no, there was "poo" all over the grass.
Anyway, I decided to do an accurate measurement of my jogging distance so I measured it from the street directory and realized I have been overestimating my previous route. It should be 1.5km over 2km. Today was then 2km. Thus, it's only 6.5km in all. It's ok though, I shall continue running to tone those flabby areas! Ah, the sense of satisfaction after running is always great. But the laziness to get downstairs and start running is always overpowering. Haha.
Hoping to tan a little by heading to the pool sometime. I've been putting it off...
Right, I should continue reading Sociology: A Global Perspective. Chapter one done, the others to go. Reading in advance will give me time to explore my new lappie then. Wheeeee!

The Saturday Night
After some slacking time from dawn to dusk, the evening kicked off with dinner at Mad Jack's cafe before heading to watch Marley & Me. Touching show man, had to hold back my tears, with much success. Thereafter we walked to this tau huey stall along Selegie Road, where the queue was never ending, but with much luck, we managed to get a seat.
As we headed to City Hall mrt station to head home, he suggested chilling out, at one of my favourite spots, with much surprise really, until the crowd dwindled by a large proportion and us to be in time to catch the train.
Nonetheless, nice company is nice no matter the location. And it seems today, the shy-ness has gone away! How cute can he be man.

Reading, AGAIN.
For the last time for the last upcoming module, I'm once again feverishly (well, not really) reading. The sentence structure gets to you really, with all those quotes from other authors and books. Imagine reading line after line written by people who lived a century ago! Yes, their style of writing, totally different! But for my final A grade, I will persevere.
And to that absolutely tactless Toastmaster, I'm just being kind to volunteer to HELP. I'm not your subordinate, don't speak to me like you are ordering me. I can't believe you speak like that as an AREA GOVERNOR. You better brush up your social skills man. I can refuse to help if I want to ok. If you are so good, go book the venue yourself, don't call me. It's people like you who make me have negative feelings towards this supposedly positive environment Toastmasters is supposed to have. ROAR!
Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to the weekend. A dinner date! Wheeeee!

Free Time!
YES! Two weeks before school starts for the last time. Anyway, I've been busy tutoring as usual, my kid's common test just passed and it's now the CA1 week. Nonetheless, there is still time for the Nintendo DS... Highly recommended - Sally's Salon.
And next game to look forward to...
The "sequel" to cooking mama. (:
----------------------
Oh and yesterday, we went to Marina Square for Indonesian food before heading to the Esplanade for the outdoor performance. Pleasant surprise to have satire kinda songs at the Esplanade. Mango Tango Cheesecake and off back home. In between? Conversations. But he is sure a shy guy.

Environmental Science OVER!
I conquered the book, read every word, page and box. But I could not remember whether having glass on the south side of the house is active or passive heat absorption. Damn. And yeah, the Indo Pacific reef diagram thing came out. Luckily I prepared for it man, right Yingying? I improved my lobster drawing to include pincers, else people can't differentiate shrimp and prawn. Haha. -_-
Next up, a date out to town. I should get going to prepare and all. So till updates maybe tonight if I'm not tired out.
Meanwhile, there's finally time to poke the DS without feeling guilty and the feeling that there's something waiting for me to complete. With the exception of Toastmasters, which I do not feel like doing anything about it. Rawr.

And Again...
Feverishly reading, making sure I got every word read such that I don't miss out any important points. Tough. This book has so many words in one page that you feel like you have read 10 pages when you only read 5. Plus the mind boggling graphs, technical definitions and implications of these and that... I need a break every 40 minutes. Reading such stuff does get me hungry man. Gobbled down a pastry thingy at 12 midnight. (: At least I don't go to bed hungry now.
Can someone tell me that this particular reading will pass and it will end soon? At the same time, I'm not so ready to leave school. How ironic.
Now, I've rested more than I needed and supposed to... Off to wash up, read and snooze...

Take me in your arms and don't let go... ...

Things Done.
Called the gymnastics place, probably drop by for a trial lesson. Done with assignments, submitted one, still sitting on the other, want to read it again (after a good 10 times) just in case there are minute errors that I didn't spot. Studying is on its way, just that the readings are really hard-core, can't go beyond 10 pages each time I read. Too much information to digest. Bleah.
Today was tuition day, as usual, but ended up unusual since I met him up for dinner. And he treated. (: Japanese food at Esplanade followed by dessert at xin wang. Well, Andersen's was closed, or rather I stepped in after 9.30pm. Next date coming up. By the way, who he? Ah, he's a guy, bespectacled.
Blah, more readings to go, and preparation for exam to go. Boo...

Off Target
Well, the aim is to complete the assignment today. Quite a bit off target, but I have started studying anyway. Not too far away from completing what I set out to do.
Wanted to head to the pool this week, didn't have the time or energy to. But I did run 2km today. Off target from what I'm supposed to do - run twice a week, but to comfort myself, I did exercise.
Supposed to call the gymnastics gym today to find out about stuff. But was too tired to do so. Yikes, the procrastination bug is back.
Somehow I seemed to have lost steam this week, gotta buck up.

Dining Out.
Today was dine out day at Dome Cafe at Marina Square. Ok, do not order the lasagna, pizza hut's downright defeats it. Other than that, I think the rest should be okay. But blah, hope the people that dined with me had a good meal.
Then it was a walk around the outdoor area of Esplanade, all the way to Fullerton Hotel before ice cream at Andersen's. Oh well, bet it was a lil' too long of a walk. Nonetheless, it was nice. I'm still feeling nervous despite meeting again. I should be less self conscious. People matters over food right? *Sigh.*
Tomorrow's supposed to be a short day for me, but again had my tuition day changed because my student had school activities on this week. And her common test's next week. For genuinely wanting to help my student and for the money, I will persevere. Just feel like slumping into a comfy chair and stone there till I feel like getting up. I'm feeling damn restless.
Take me away.
