"Jello legs"
In order to prevent my legs from becoming jello legs (read: cellulite), I did a super mad thing today... Met up with Hippo and we bladed from one end of ECP to the other.. (Fort Rd -> Changi Point, Changi Point-> Laguna Food Centre, Laguna Food Centre -> Fort Rd, Fort Rd -> Taxi stand at East Coast Seafood Centre). Best part? Now my legs really feel like jello (read: soft). Gosh... a grand total of abt... 17km? Hey.. quite an achievement for someone who has never managed to run more than 7km!
But it was a great work out. No pesky kids to worry about, unlike the crowded Sunday traffic. Sure, you had sudden obstacles, but they were manageable (still had some close shaves though). Gliding through with the sea breeze was fantastic.. Should do this more often with more ppl! Also did an achievement in terms of handling the slope in the direction of Changi Point. No more hitching choo choo train with Hippo anymore! Ha ha ha!
So how was my day today? Well.. started off badly due to a stupid lizard, before I went to bed. Wanted to switch off the reading light, so I absent mindedly reached for it.. I thought I touched the switch, and in that spilt second, realized that the light was still on, and I heard a "twack" plus rustling of plastic bags. Realization hit. F%@$! I just touched a lizard... and the whole night was spent worrying when the idiotic thing will appear anywhere around the bed.
I hate lizards. Period.
Other than that, work was surprisingly ok! Unusual for a Fri, but I am not complaining. Rather enjoy it while it lasts!
Alrighty.. turning in now.. Hair almost dry.. and tummy getting acidic again.. My medication this time tastes like vanilla! Yummy! If only it were like that all the time :) Ok turning in before I need to eat something..
Good Night! Selamat Malam! Wan3 An1! Guten Nacht! Oyasuminasai!
