Keep running

Today, i actually ran from Bukit Batok, which is the area i am staying, to Chinese Garden, and back to Bukit Batok.


As what my RunKeeper app was tracking on my mobile phone, it recorded as distance of 10.3km. (this inclusive of the walking and drinking break..)

The last time i did a 10km was in Dec 2011, the Stand Chart run.

I did felt the left knee aching while im on the way back... but then i think i should keep exercising regularly.

Especially after i had this last night.


The KFC "Double Down" Two pieces of deep fried chicken, with a cheese and bacon in between.
Sinful, much !! HAHA !


Maybe this picture, will motive me, and of course, you !

R.I.P. Hammy. 15 Apr 2012

We keep pets.
We feed them.
We wash their cage.
We play with them.

I have a hamster.



It sometimes sleeps, while sitting.


It sometimes runs out, to drink water, and stares at me when i come home from work.





This morning,i knocked at the cage. No reactions.
I touched its back. No reactions too.
I wished it was sleeping, but it was not.

It passed away.

I love pets, but dont like to see them dying.

R.I.P. Hammy.

Thank you for the fun, and memories.

Another Macdonald outlet, closing down.

Although the outlet at East Coast park, shifted to a new place.
Another outlet. going to be closed down.

It is the McDonald’s Place at King Albert Park.

It was reported that Oxley Holdings bought the iconic building for $150 million.

I guess it will be "transform" into a new condominium.

Although i was not a regular visitor to the place, but everytime the bus i am traveling on past the place, i know im getting home soon.

It is just such an iconic building. 

Why are iconic buildings and places being sold off, or being forced to shift?



It's all about the MONEY. 

Don't you think so ?

The SMRT girl at the bus stop..

Everyday to work..
Everyday at this particular bus stop along the way...

On the already crowded bus, there will be a girl, wearing the SMRT polo shirt, shouting "Please kindly move in, Thank You!!"

Today, due to me standing near the door, i secretly took her photo.. (without the face,to protect her. and myself..)


There she is, standing in front of me, shouting loudly..

The bus is already crowded, i did not pay the bus fare, to let the other people touch my backside. (Although i do enjoy ladies touching me.. =x ) I still dont understand her shouting for people to move it.

Maybe you din realize, we also have such SMRT staff, at the mrt control stations...
Their slogan being "Please let passengers alight, before boarding.."

This is the current situation of our public transports.. even during timing like 10+pm in the night... No Joke.



I think their next duty will be this.........


"Pushing" people into the train !

=(

Sometimes When We Touch - Dan Hill

Great songs, never die, and worth to be repeated, over and over again.... Don't you agree?
^^

Sometimes When We Touch - Dan Hill

You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you
On what you say or do?
I'm only just beginning to see the real you

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

Romance and all its strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through the insecurity 
Some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter
Still trapped within my youth

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

At times I'd like to break you 
And drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through
And hold you endlessly

At times I understand you 
And I know how hard you've tried
I've watched while love commands you
And I've watched love pass you by

At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

Never too old

Someone posted this on Facebook.


Looking at this picture, i look at myself.

Not even 30 years old, and im looking in a worse shape than a 70 years old man.
Too much beer, too much good food, too little exercise.
I need to get into shape, for the runs, at the end of the year ! ^^

And, even my idol, is still making a movie !!



" Get ready... Get ready... Get ready... ! "

Ah Kong [阿公]

Recently there is this commercial, that seems to be repeating on tv.



It is a commercial on Dementia or 老年痴呆症, by Royston Tan (The Director of 881), and presented by the Health Promotion Board (HPB).

As according to the article on HPB website, there are 10 warning signs of Dementia.
They are :

1. Memory loss that affects day-to-day function
2. Difficulty doing familiar tasks
3. Confusion about time and place
4. Problems communicating
5. Difficulty planning or solving problems
6. Poor or decreased judgment
7. Misplacing things
8. Changes in mood or behaviour
9. Changes in personality
10. Withdrawal from work or social activities

I don't know about you, i not sure if someday i might be like this.. we never know.

It can be a good thing, at least i remember the happy things, instead of the unhappy ones... don't you agree?

^^

Date a girl who takes photographs.

Credits to my friend who shared this on Facebook.

Date a girl who takes photographs because she will always see that “something” in the most “nothing” of things.

* * * * * * * *

Date a girl who takes photographs. Date a girl whose favorite sound is the click-click of the shutter as it closes and opens to capture a memory. Date a girl who sees the wonder in the simplest things. Date a girl who looks at the world and wonders how to put a little of herself in it.

You might find her in the park, lost behind her lens, the world a blur around her as she tries to capture a single moment in time. You might find her in an exhibit, a look of concentration on her face as she contemplates a photograph that called out to her as she was passing by. Or maybe you will find her in a bookstore, a book in her lap as she pores over photographs of people in different situations.

Take her out to photo walks and laugh as she tries to take a picture of you. When she gets tired of walking, buy her cupcakes but wait until she has taken a photo of your food before digging it. Allow her introduce you to Vivian Maier while you both eat your lunch. Introduce her to your favorite musician as you wait for the bill to arrive. When you get home, change your Facebook profile picture into a photograph she took of you. She silently hoped for it.

Take stolen shots of her. Compile it and give it to her on her birthday. Tell her you love her over and over until your voice replaces the click of the shutter as her favorite sound. Kiss her after she lifts her head up from the camera. Give her camera-shaped necklaces. Go places with her. You will never be bored again.

Date a girl who takes photographs. She will never whine about a little dirt on her favorite pair of jeans as she kneels down to get a better angle of her subject. She will never be afraid to take adventures with you. She will take photographs of you not just with her camera but with her mind as well and keep it to herself to admire at night. But above all, she will teach you how to look at the world with a brand new perspective and she will do that unknowingly.

Marry a girl who takes photographs. Ditch those wedding photography books and give her the most beautiful wedding you could. She will teach you kids to find the beauty in everything just as she had taught you. Every day will be an adventure as she tries to create memories photograph-worthy with you. She may wake you up in the middle of the night because she is buzzing with ideas but she will make it up in the morning with a stack of hot pancakes beside a steaming cup of your favorite coffee blend.

Grow old with a girl who takes photographs. Sit with her on the front porch as you both pore over the bits and pieces of the moments you’ve had together. Stroke her hair as you both relieve the photo walks that you took and the places you have been when you were both young.

Date a girl who takes photographs because she will always see that “something” in the most “nothing” of things.
