I'm immediately in dreamworld as soon as my head hit my dearest pillow. 2:02AM!!!! The phone rang!!! Goodness.... jump up right from bed as if the building is going to collapse.

+01961211!!!!! ^%$@*&$%&*@#^%$ I didn't pick up and shut off my phone. Where did this odd number came from! ***angry angry**** It's amazing what the Internet can do nowadays.
From my anaylsis on Google results, this is very likely a sales scam from either India or China. Wait till they call me again in day time, I'm sure going to 'play' with them :P

Flying off tomorrow, haven't pack a single thing yet. Oh and I have this stack of reading material that I need to complete before the trip. Gotta take a quiz in day 1 of the course. 32 hours of Uni level course as per the introduction. The moment I start reading, either my mind start to wonder around or I'm falling asleep.... Very good indeed.................. Shall see how am I surviving next week....

During the last swim class, coach gave me a few tips and instructing me to think of how to achieve that kind of body alignment that he wants to see. It did take me quite a fair bit of conscious effort to achieve that straight body line, hairline at water surface. Needless to say, it is the most tiring session ever since I started with him. I could feel soreness on my arms. I could feel heat generated out of the body while swimming.

Now, 3 days later.... My arms are still not as fresh. Is that what you call as Delayed OnSet Muscle Soreness (DOMS)???????

Let's see... This week was not much but slightly better than last week. Things are quite within control now and slowly seeing things falling in place nicely.

Have also completed the 4+ hr night run until midnight over the weekend with the beloved Toofam. Tired for sure but the legs suprisingly are holding up quite well with yoko yoko and pattstrap working hand in hand despite someone commented never seen me running in such slow pace before...haha... My thoughts was like... wait till you see a brisk walker overtake me...:)

Still busy preparing to welcome the arrival of my new family member, getting all the necessaries done. Interesting though.... Next weekend bizness trip again.... Some tempting hills round the hotel vicinity that I've missed during the last trip and for sure I wanna to give it a try this time round. By the time I touch down to SG a week later...It's 8 hours to SunDown!!! Hahahaa....Niceeeeee...... wonder how that night will turn up. I should probably wear a compression tights for that 7 hours flight to make sure the two legs are still alive at mid night. Anyway...whatever will be..will be.......

Oopss…….seems to have gone a bit rusty in here.

No doubt, laziness is one of the many many excuses that I can think of. But really….. it has been real busy in the last few weeks. Weeks after weeks, I can’t recall the xx things that I’ve done apart from the daily business at work. Home is more of a shower & bed time place in the last 2 weeks. Anyway, the real big thing that happen is….I’m going to have a new member added to the family real soon! Things that was planned for years and finally with God’s blessing, this has finally materialized. Life will/may/possible never be the same in all aspect – good or bad whatever…haa…. No! I am NOT pregnant!!!

On the other hand, I’ve completed by 6th lesson with Seamonsta. A few more to go and I’ll be ready for the next challenge, **hopefully**. Coach commented that my ‘wu-kung’ is the strongest in the class which is of course nice to hear but I think there’s still a long way from being competent. He gave a thumbs up on one of my drills but immediately warned me about my ear plug and nose clip. Nose clip (which I only need to use when breathing on my weaker side) will slow me down a lot he said. Ear plug – rely too much, I’ll DNF if it drops out during open water event. I did thought of it way back but thought I shd just put them on and get the stroke right first and not let those ‘water getting in’ affect me. Ok… I guess it’s time to take them off and learn to adapt to water getting in to the nose & ear ^____^

2 more weeks to SD…… What will be…will be……. Positive mentality is more important than anything else at this point…….
