I enjoy jogging even more after going through military training. No, I haven't consider a marathon yet, for now it's just short distance of 6 km or less. I bought myself a Nike + iPod Sport Kit shortly after investing in an iPod Nano. It keeps track of my runs (time, distance, pace, etc), motivates me with the power song feature and even congratulates me when I hit a personal best. Although the distance is sometime way off and once it lost sync with my iPod Nano and recorded a 5.1 km run as 2.28 km run it still my best companion whenever I sweat it out.
Headed down to Dhoby Ghaut after my course last week to donate blood and to support my university's blood drive. It was the same event that I was given the opportunity (refer here) to organize after going through a round of interview. I think what deters most people from donating is the sight of the needle. What you can't see, can't scare you, so don't look at it when the nurse insert it in. Less than an hour of my time and just 450 ml of my blood (imagine a coke bottle) to save 3 lives, it's worth it. Please donate. :)
Tried The Soup Spoon for the first time and I find it pretty normal, nothing much to rave about. I had the Beef Goulash soup with Mushroom Pesto sandwich. My dining companion's Boston Clam Chowder was tasteless and 'boring'.
I'm one year older today. Feel so old now, hate to think of my age when I finally complete my degree. I had an early celebration with my family at home the day before. Going for another celebration at Lawry's later. :)
In loving memory of my miniature Schnauzer who passed away on 1st December 2006.
