yesterday was nanyang annual cross country run.for the first time,it was held at turf city instead of macritchie.and it's alot better,much to my surprise.i mean,most of the time i could see where the track was leading and estimate how much further i have to go,but at macritchie,you cant see a bloody 50m away.it's all trees,trees,and more trees.it gets on your nerves after a while and you just give up and start walking.
so for the first time since i started schooling at nanyang,i actually ran the entire 2.9km course,and with a pretty good time too i reckon.im not sure the exact timing,but among the fun runners in my class(each class sends 6 ppl to take part in the competitive run,which leaves everyone else to take part in the fun run),i think i did rather well.which is quite an achievement for me,considering i only play serious sports once a week,not including P.E.
so anyway,i abandoned my lovely table partner at the back which really wasnt purposeful.i mean,once i got into the jogging mood,i really didnt want to stop.it was kindda like a self challenge.so i broke the pact of "we walk,dont run".
today is national day,and honestly,i do feel like i'll miss singapore if i ever leave.it's a rather lovely place if you think abt it.but it's waay too stressful.
gosh i missed the NDP.i thought it starts at 7.30pm.or earliest 7pm.but no,it started at 6pm.so i was confused when i switched on the tv at 7.45pm and saw this yr's national day song come on,and i saw the words Finale at the bottom of the tv.
anyway.
tomorrow is joyce's 8th bday party!!and im just SO thrilled.i've practically organised everything single handedly,excpet jamie's been assigned to games.
i've prepared the goody bags,planned out the events of the party,and ordered 24 sets of Mcdonald happy meals for lunch(:
it's brilliant!when me and jamie designed the bday cards for joyce's classmates,we attached this menu where they can tick what combo they want for their happy meal,which is to be returned as a confirmation that they'll be coming.
and they ARE coming in...12 HOURS!!
*beams*
gosh this is so exciting.
im more excited than joyce!
so cool.i havent had a chance to watch little kids play for a long time.maybe i'll see my eight yr old self in one of them.maybe in joyce.she is alot like me when i was still little.crazy imagination,kindda sick and always picturing lovey dovey scenes,acting cute in front of seniors,showing off in front of friends,loud,bossy,eager to learn and explore..
hmm but she's spoilt.
like,seriously.
we're training her to say thank you now.
but anyway.
I LOVE JOYCE(:
early happy birthday darling!
i hope you enjoy your party tmr.
although it's like super
low budget.
