30.8.2012

woke up early to complete everything
that wasn't completed the day before
it was a race against time
but luckily i manage to complete everything
way earlier than i expected
even have time to do some finishing touches
to the booklet and the casing
after completing the booklet
i prepared everything i need for the night
checking google map so to make sure i don't get lost
she was still working that day, her last day of work
she would really miss all the kids at work
actually wanted to pick her up from work
but due to the jam, ended up waiting for her in front of her house
but when i arrive she still haven't reach home
was quite nervous when i reach her house
as there is one part of the booklet that is still incomplete
which require her parent's help
but i don't want her to see it as it was a surprise gift
so getting the booklet into her house without her noticing was quite difficult
she came back soon after i reach her house
and i waited in the living room while she was preparing herself
manage to get her parents to help me do the finishing touches
which is just a simple message from her parents to her
but i think the message will meant a lot to her
as her parents really spend quite some effort to complete it
but she accidentally got a peek of the booklet while her parents was busy
thinking what to write, but it was just a small peek
spent quite a long time at her home as she need to take care of some minor stuff
paperwork to be prepared before she departs to penang for her studies
after everything was done, brought her to collect her handphone
which was sent in to the "hospital" for treatment as it was "sick"
she was very happy to get her phone back
as she is quite lonely without her own phone
not being able to stay in touch with her friends

after that it was all the way to our dinner location
it was a place full of memory for me
as i once celebrated my birthday over there with my friends
it was a long drive as it's still a foreign place to me
but we manage to get there safely
she recognised one of the place by the picture i took
previously when i was there with them
ate at chilli's for dinner
the food was not as good as the previous one i had
her choice of food was not so nice, mine was only so so
but the drinks was awesome. best milk shake ever.
after dinner, went to have a walk around the mall
took two polaroid pictures, one for her and one for me
thanks to shin dhee for the camera, i really appreciate it
after that went a little sight seeing at klang
where i handed her the booklet and she flipped it
from cover to cover for the very first time
and she really liked the booklet
i was really satisfied when she smile so happily
while flipping the booklet
looking through the content of the booklet
and telling me what she think about the booklet
but she expression when she was looking at the booklet
PRICELESS
but all good things do have to come to an end
sent her home after everything
and ended the long day at 1 am in the morning of 31.08.2012

despite all the happy things that happened
she was having her gastric pain throughout the whole day
i really appreciate her enduring the pain throughout the whole time out
it was really painful as it was clearly reflected in the facial expression
she could have demanded to go home but she did not
felt really bad when i heard her coughing and gagging from outside the toilet
thank you. thank you for the memory. thank you for the gift from australia.
thank you for everything up until now.

Thank You.

nike run

it was nike run yesterday

attended it with my friends

i had barely enough training for the run

which i find its very difficult to complete the run

nike run is help in kl this year

with the theme werunkl2012

the starting point was at jalan ampang

and the ending point was at padang merbok

the entire 10km route was ran at highway

which made us passed by a toll

the toll employees was cheering us on the entire way 

when we pass by the toll booth

the run was quite difficult as it involve a lot of uphill slope

and the slope is quite steep

and it command a lot of energy to conquer it

the nike run was quite successful

as it manage to gather 15 thousand runner

this year, other than the normal running vest,

there is also a finisher vest.

once you completed the run, you can collect the vest

and the ending point of the run

despite the sudden change of ending venue

from stadium to padang

the run went on smoothly

after the run

there is performance by many local artiste

such as miss nina, jj and ean and dance crews

it was quite happening

and many enjoyed the concert despite being tired and exhausted

from completing the run

the only downside of the run

which is the main complaint

is that the field was muddy from the long rain before the run

and the finishing line being in the middle of the field

cause the entire field to become a mud fest

with shoes getting stuck in the mud and making a HUGE mess of the shoe

some runner wore their new nike shoe and have no choice

but to sacrifice it and walk into the mud

as the finishing line and the finisher vest collection counter

is in the middle of the field

another complaint is that the shuttle bus 

despite being stated as 10 minute wait

did not arrive after a 20 minute wait

decided to catch a cab but after a long attempt

which we failed to hail a cab,

we decided to walk to the nearest lrt station which is

1.5km away from the place we are

after a long walk and arriving at klcc

which is where we park our car,

we met up with my friends and had dinner

before leaving for home,

stopped by the klcc park water fountain performance

it was beautiful and stunning

and off we go back home after finishing the show

how i did for the run

i manage to complete the run within the allocated time

i manage to obtain the finisher vest

however i did not go to the performance as i was having the cramps

on both my leg after the exhausting run

i do however enjoyed the run

outcome of the run the next day

i have lead pipes as my leg

my whole body aches but it felt great

and i think i hate stairs for today

accomplished a new achievement in life. :)

quick october

just one week into October

but yet so many things have happened

so a quick update of what have happened

send my baby, aka my PC

to the hospital for one day

and it came back better and faster

did not upgrade any parts of her

just a mere format of the hard disk

but she is now as good as she can be

maybe better than before

but i still love her just as much

bought a new badminton racket

and it was really good

can feel the difference between the new and old one

however my wrist strength is not enough

to fully utilize the racket

ended up hurting myself

so more wrist strength training for me

so i can use it without hurting myself

collected the Nike run running vest

its black with a lightning symbol in front

the collection venue is at the curve

and there was an event there to enable you

to customize your running vest

a small challenge of running 150m on a treadmill

within 1 minute and you will earn a badge

that you can attach to your running vest 

on the spot

the facilitator of the treadmill i ran

while attempting the challenge was very cute

she's quite small sized and quite bubbly

but i embarrassed myself in front of her because

my pants was too loose that it kept falling off

while i was busy running

the Nike run goody bag have

1 zalora voucher, 1 Nike 20% discount voucher

1 boost juice bar voucher, and a original Nike water bottle

this year there will also be a finisher jersey

but its on a first come first serve basis

another motivation for me to run faster

lastly, celebrated jessy's birthday

kwan yong brought us to this secretive location

to have quite authentic Korean food

the place itself is very Korean feeling

and the food is uniquely different

it was my first try at Korean food

i have nothing to compare against 

but i will say that it's really not bad

went to meeples for round 2

and had fun while making a lot of noises

happy birthday jessy!! :)

all the best to YOU for assignments, studies and test
