A short break b/w projects

Well finally submitted my gene cell class, over and done with. Only left w a quiz and project presentation for this module. Guess what? Rem the "stand-a-ton"(the stand on 1 leg to win a ipod nano)? I got the wrong date, and found out like 1/2 hr before the contest began. So i donated $10 to AWWA (asian women welfare association - the beneficiary of the ltb grp), and took part. I take it back, it ain't as easy as i tot. Doesn't help tt u can't change leg, no breaks, can't put ur leg onto the other one and hv to hold ur alleviated ankle at ALL times.

When started out, had 45 of us dodos. Quite proud of myself actually, stood for 1hr 20 mins. After 1/2 hr, it's not much abt balancing, more abt ignoring the multiple cramps u start having in ur legs, like sole of feet, ankle, calf, thigh... I can't even believe u can hv multiple cramps in ONE leg! After an hr, i started to feel that the pain was just NOT WORTH an ipod nano, haha, REALLY. not tt i really wanted it either, i might hv sold it off. I more of joined for fun la. Finally gave in cos 1) leg so pain but still hv 20 pple, if <10 not so bad. 2) really really pain! 3) had to go for muay thai trg already. So owells, legs so wobbly and all after tt too. Now my calf muscle still hurts and my heel feels like there's a giant monster blister on my heel bone. Ouch!

Went for muay thai and was the only one, cos most of them had performance at SSU back in school, which i wasn't keen to go for. So had intense trg, and darren asked me to join the next class too, to see how diff pple fight. Since i had nothing better to do, i stayed ard and whack the punching bag too, so hard! Got bruises all over my legs already...

Friday i did my MPW work while lance went for trg, he overslept so was in kinda of a rush. Den we went to serangoon north to visit pet shop opening and look at all the birds and stuff ard there. Suppose to swim in the afternoon but both got lazy after we got to my place. So we spent the afternoon and evening wrapping shoe boxes and filling them up for the Adopt-a-shoebox program, where we are giving presents to the street kids in cambodia under the OM (operations mobilisation). So fun! I lurve this project! Lance had loads of junk to give away anyways, like nice pens and sticky pads. We went w parents to buy somemore stuff (had underwear too!) at cold storage before heading for dinner at the sheraton hotel, had steak and salad bar, yummy! i came back and finished up (w mom's help in wrapping) and slept at 2am.

Sunday had to do ushering for 8am service, so gotta wake up at 640am. Didn't go for youth sunday school cos had to help mom in wrapping those boxes that the kids forgot to wrap, and to fill up those that were only half filled. Only done at 2pm! So dad had to fetch me to dog trg after lunch. Before dinner w bob, leslie, lance and alvin at sizzlers at toa payoh, i went back home while the guys went to borders and bob went home to shower maxie (les sick again). Cleaned squishy tank cos she had shed on friday, read the papers and took a nap.

Yap, boring weekend for most i guess, but i likee. Tho maybe i should've done more work, now gotta rush again! This wk: gotta survey my dad's company and report plus presentation for Italy (whether they should leave the euro, and revert to the lira). Sigh...monday blues... I think relationships opens a floodgate of strong emotions, any way of closing it???

ps. finished my qt material, any suggestions of new materials?
