How exciting it is to run to the toilet as though you were still in army and you were told that you have 7 mins to fall in in your Full Battle Order.
I was so well trained in turn outs, that it is 2nd nature. But now I lost, I succumbed to the challenged posed to me from my stomach. This isn't 2nd nature at all.
Having fever that comes on and off. Breaking out into cold sweat all the time. Waking up in a pool of sweat. I think I lost enough water. Which was why I was numb. Ha.
I even lost 3kg in 3 days. It's even faster than visiting a slimming centre. lol.
Every odd birthday after my 20th birthday has been plagued with illness. Lets hope it is just coincidental. Thanks for all the well wishes and presents everyone! =)
Lets hope my life gets back to normal. I'm lagging behind enough to flunk horribly. No more time and space for such crap.

Horribly horrible.
The formula for food poisoning = popeye's + choco fondue + nydc's pasta.
I don't know what is the exact cause, but I'm feeling horrible. I suspect it is the last one.
Had the runs so many times already yesterday and this morning. I thought I would be alright since I wasn't feeling so bad while I was in school sewing stuff. But, when I was on my way home for dinner, I had to pull out my woolie to keep me warm on the bus and train. And even with it on, I was cold. Now I feel like I'm better off unconscious. Haha.
Oh well..
Anyway interview with Bakerzin was not too bad. Quite enticing. =)

Thanks for pei-ing me run around bugis and lavender looking around for halloween stuff. =)

The Build up
Responsibility: It means to give tuition on your birthday because your boy has Olevels Math paper the day after.
The build up towards that day is so similar to that 3 years ago. I've totally lost myself yet again.
Lost all my train of thoughts.
Duck.
*edit
Nvm, some came back..
First time in my whole Uni Life, have I not done more than 10 tutorial assignment consecutively.
First time I studied for a test, the day before.
Today is a bad day.
Woke up with a headache.
Kq drove me to school.
The traffic condition was horrible. ALL the routes to school jammed. And my test was the first lesson. Thanks to Kq's superb driving skills, I was only late for 5 mins. And luckily Labor test wasnt so tough.
Went to GT tutorial, and didn't understand a shit. What's new.
OCBC interview. Not good.
Labor tutorial, didn't do in advance.
Capitaland 2nd Interview. Damn not good.
On train, my foot was stepped on like 10 times.
Tuition ended late.
and 3 more weeks to exams.
I'm so in the mood.

Shawn the Sheep
I miss being Shawn the Sheep. (http://www.shaunthesheep.com/)
Baaaa...
It's the time and place where I didn't have much worries.
Albeit boring at times, it's generally fun! Esp the company!
Okok.. I have no freaking idea why I am feeling rather lost and totally deflated.
Had a rather long day today. But it was a nice day. 绿茶! Whee! Haha. Despite the rain.
Sesame bun is nice! A pity they ran out of xiao long bao, I think that is one reason why I'm emo. Lol. Didnt satisfy my craving.
Perhaps its the 1/4 life crisis.
Too much (-ve) aura from people all around.
I've too many cravings recently, I feel like I'm pregnant or something. Haha.
I guess I'll probably cut my hair on Fri, do some work and rest. Perhaps run a bit.
And I'm feeling hungry now. This is bad...

Education
I wonder what is the essence of education nowadays.
What is the point of being in a top 5 JC when you cannot even help someone with the slightest of things.
One little example, an old lady was stretching her hand way out trying to press the bell of the bus, this guy from a certain JC, was right in front of the bell, had 1 hand free and just stared at the old lady struggle to reach for the bell without helping. I would have pressed the bell, if I werent holding on to a laptop and a plastic bag and the handle, even though I was not in a very convenient position myself.
I always thought education would make the society a better place, but... I'm losing faith in this shit. This investment in human capital seems to be making humans more inhuman and more capital. I have heard way too many stories about how kids take their parents for granted and threaten them etc.
So education gives them knowledge but takes away their morals and civic-mindedness?
So I assume this is a zero-sum game then? Whereby, Knowledge + Civic-mindedness = a fixed constant?
Any gain in Knowledge must be accompanied by a corresponding loss in Civic-mindedness?
So, change in (+ve) Knowledge = (-ve) change in Civic-mindedness.
Okay, enough of this whining.
MTI-NUS Dialogue is over, it was a pretty good experience, even though I was just a slacker there. Yes I know, I have to admit this. The food is really quite good. Had a rather engaging conversation with a couple of the Economists there and they made my desire to work in the Public sector even stronger. It could be hard selling from their side, but I still want to try.
Today is a red egg day! Haha. Thanks mum.
I over slept on the train for the first time in so many years.
Miss the station when I came back. Haha. Oh well. I guess it is a sign that I should sleep more.

Routines
I just realised that I'm no longer following certain routines.
And the shocker is that the 42km run, which could be my last is 2 months away.
So.... before it really becomes my last run for good.
I better start training.
Running routine starts TODAY.
But now that I have weird schedules, I have no idea how to work around it.
My free nights are, Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon.
Unless I run on Tues night, after Andrew's class.
This is a pretty bad schedule.
Nvm, I shall work around it, this wk must run 15 to 18km.
Next wk. 18 to 21km.
Need to clock 45km one of these wk. And a single run of at least 32km (I think)
And considering that I need to taper down, I am really short of time. Argh.
But as of now, I need to go for another marathon. International and Game Theory marathon.
My life is messed up.
