Big Walk 2010

I actually skipped gym for the first time this year and only because.......I had to go big walk! So fun, though I tot the route was pretty short. Anyway, I was not able to go to the starting point because apparently the entry there was blocked by masses of people where most of them were actually queuing up to get their goody bag. There weren't exactly people who actually guided us big walkers to the meet up venue too and I think I ended up walking a rather big round. 


But it was okay. I might not have started from the starting point where I would have actually walked on the F1 route but at least I managed to start walking from the helix bridge. I heard from someone on facebook that I was lucky enough to get my way there on the bridge because she got stuck with the masses of people and were not able to move through. In fact, she had to take a bus to one point of the route instead.


I had to tackle the route myself though it was pretty easy as just the day before I went on the same route but on the opposite side of the road as my brother and I went to the Marina Bay and had to walk that way due to the diverted bus routes. I ended up finishing the route pretty early and was like..'huh? thats it?' and even contemplated going to the gym later on coz I didn't feel that tired. But anyhoo, coz I didn't collect my goody bag, had to walk back again and this time I managed to get to the starting point as the crowd had moved already *phewh* So overall, I got tired a bit coz no joke walking all the way back again but it was worth it, coz I got a fantastic goody bag. Anyway, I paid $10 for it so I deserve such a goody bag unlike the last time where I got mostly lousy coupons which I didn't use anyway..pfft.


I like the free umbrella :P though the most expensive will be the Singapore Flyer ticket where I can use it for free...wheeee!!! Not cheap you know, the tix..I think it's $29.90. But anyway my brother took the umbrella coz this morning, I was frantically trying to find it in my room but it was nowhere to be found and I suspected he took it even though I told him I wanted it. Oh well. 


I think the event would have been more fun if I had company but I guess next time then. I still dislike the shirt though coz it was too small for me as it was the only size left and I couldn't be more jealous seeing other people having the bigger sized one. Lucky can still fit in...well, somehow...


So here's a montage of the Big Walk event!

Being a Teacher isn't Easy

I work with teachers but I'm not a teacher. I actually work in the admin department and I like my job though sometimes it can be challenging especially when I feel swarmed by it. Or when my boss keeps calling me for work related stuffs especially when she is doing the approval for payment or vetting through. So, the headache. Anyway, I can honestly say most teachers are really nice though some are really driving me up the wall. That or they are just simply aint nice but then, it is also because of their personality. But as teachers, they are really dedicated. I also deal with parents and honestly, they can be demanding and very irritating and they are not scared of the higher authority in school. To them, they are being like that all because they care for their children but they are overbearing as if they don't let their children make mistakes and learn. Plus, whatever their children said, they believe every bit of their story though they are not there to see for themselves an...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...

All in A Day's Work

It's funny how people get all flustered when people talk about them like speculating how they may have a crush on someone and they felt hey, these people have no business with me whatsoever so why don't they just shut their gap. But then when they talk about some other people's business like oh, you two should be together, and how's the progress, why don't you see her as someone special, blah blah blah...it's like they have every right to do so. Reality check. If you can talk about others in that manner and in their face like be some frigging matchmaker, why are you being so defensive when others talk about you especially when you air them in facebook? Doesn't make sense to me. If you don't want people to be nosey in your affair, stop airing them over in cyberspace and also don't be that nosey bugger as well coz you obviously hate it when people do that to you. Oh well. Anyway, I was just thinking to myself that at times, while I'm usual...
