Shocking Price of The Psychology Trading

On 20th September 2006, my hubby (Benny) wanted to go out to Orchard Road as he have not go there for long time. Yeah he is very very busy man with his own stuffs to his dream. Then I finally took him out to Orchard Road.

We were talking about the current affair in Thailand. I was very very disappointed with the current situation in Thailand now due to coup between PM Thaksin and army mililarty. But hopefully things in Thailand will be fine and peaceful again. Cannot say that I love & support Thailand or else the SG government will kick me out. ops.. haha just kidding.. Just that I love travelling to Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea and New York to see many new things to my explore learning life. No thanks to China or Indonesia or Philippines. ;((

Then we went to Borders BookShop at Wheelock Plaza after dinner. I rushed to newspaper situation to grab some news information about Thailand situation. While for benny - he went to usual same section he always look for - Finance or Business or Self - enrichment sections to look for books.

He chose this book and showed me. This book is fully about the trading and finance freedom. Whenever we go bookshop everywhere, he never stop buying books. My mainly worry is that the room will become just like National Library as he has many books on shelf than my books. Still I NEVER stop him buying books because he loves reading books since young.


See this book is not bad and it is just hit the new arrival section. But my brain is not on all trading or stock or share market... I am more passion into my fashion business market that I am currently doing now.

This book cover looks very excellent and everything is about the success of trading and sercet taught method inside written on book.

Nice overall PSYCHOLOGY OF TRADING book with mixed blue and shade blue with picture of office furniture. Then he asked me to guess how much is this book. I looked at this book and said it must be about $40plus.

He kept laughing at me and shaking his head at me. Then I said about $49.90. He said no till he showed me the price label... very shocking and I nearly fainted after see this figure price. See...

. $50 plus.. NO !~!

. $60 plus..... NONO !~!

. $70 plus .... NO NO NO !~!

. $80 plus..... NO NO NO NO !~!

.

.

.

This books cost nearly $100 buck... See this label price... It is true. I do not change or remove price label. See picture prove...

In my entire life, I never buy such book costs nearly to $100 buck. Mostly I bought books from internet or borrow books from National Library. I do not want to keep too many books.

But to him, he is rare different from me. He said why he chose this book. See his reason saying was that this book is more useful and it enable to boost his power thinking on trading to success his dream and his long term love passion on trading & share market. You see that Benny has some lines on his forehead and near his eyes side. He has become more wiser & maturer after reading many books about Investment, Finance anaylst, Warren Buffeut, George Soros, Trading, Stock Investing & Market and many more.

Cute isnt it ?? More cuter than what i think.....:)) Lastly, thank you all (B's colleagues).

Suffering Fever Bug (11th - 15th Sept 06)

On 11th September 2006, my hubby (B) and I went to coffeebean for breakfast after I settled something at Tampines Post Office then headed to Century Square to meet (B) there. Then we ate breakfast together and after sometimes, I suddenly felt pain with my both arms and I thought was that I squeezed my arm under my pilliow for long time without feeling free it. But pain was growing from upper to below elbow. I never encountered this before. So I asked (B) to massage it while I massage my other arm.

Then we were walking towards Tampines Mall, NTUC to buy spaghettii for our dinner. Little strange was that my neck and my side of body slowly started to erupt the pain. Really no idea how pain came to me. I kept walking with him to NTUC without telling him. Once we reached NTUC, my entire body suddenly started to shiver and fever just erupted. But throat pain / sore not yet. I bear with it and carried on finding beef or sgaphettii stuffs to cook. Later I became tired and weaker, no strength to stand or walk. I immediately told (B) and we both no idea how come I got this werid fever and pain else.... Then (B) asked me to rest and waited out the NTUC.

After B done things, we walked to medicine shop nearby to buy remedy drink (fever) and other medicine things will do. We went up to go home. Whoa....the sun became stronger and brighter, my eyes could not take it. My head bowed down while I was walking home with (B). The long path I walked along, the more fever was growing very pain. I got to bear with it and walked faster to go home to get shelter and rest.

We reached home finally and I rushed straight to bed to lie down for a while. Unfortunately remedy fever drink could not save me because the fever became stronger and my back head was extremely pain even I could not think anything.. like mind was blank. then the next pain beneath my neck and my both side body was very pain. I admitted that I was frustrated and dislike this kinda of idotic fever bug active everywhere. Gotta to calm down and went sleep straight.

My heart was painful to see my (B) keep walking up and down to room just to check on me every 2-4 hours. Also he took out his medicine smiliar to fever condition and I ate medicine immediately without any hesitate. Of course, I wanted to get well faster. Till about four plus in afternoon, still have feeling the pain everywhere. Suddenly, sore throat came out. Could not sleep well because of the pain kept disturbing my mind. Was extremely upset and dislike this feeling of pain suffering. It kept me awake. Then I got up and went to living room to lie down on L-shaped sofa to watch television and tried hard to forget the pain around me. I had porridge for my dinner. Pity me right.... At about 8plus, I asked my (B) to check internet about Dengue Fever or Flu Difference in case to avoid too much hassle later on.

At 10pm, I could not take it and pain started come out everywhere. Then decided to see doctor at Tampines side clinic. Then went sleep after ate medicine. But in end, I kept wake up and sleep back few times. I tried not to make (B) worried too much as noticed him keep an eye on me. I knew he was supposed to attend his IPPT in camp on 11/09/2006 and expected him to do well his IPPT exercise.

On 12th September 2006, I wake up at 4.00am and became blur. Tears came out from my eyes. I did not know what was wrong with my body temperature keep going up and down within every few hours. Then in end (B) could not attend his IPPT because of me and I got to worry if officer will scold him for missing out the IPPT exercise or not. I kept telling him to go but he insisted to stay side with me and looked after me.

Double painful inside my heart to see (B) kept walking down and up to get water, medicine and towel & path down to our room from 4.00am till 6.00pm without resting. I was really angry with myself for getting fever on wrong time to delay his IPPT exercise and caused (B) a hugely worries about me. But yet, (B) did not complain everything and still carried on to look after me by taking down temperature every 2-3 hours and taken medicines every 4 hours and put cold towel on my head to subside the fever. I kept asking him about his IPPT exercise constantly, he said do not worry and he will take it again next time. It relieved me after hearing this. I ought to thank to (B)'s boss and others who excused him from IPPT exercise. I forget their names but I know who they are as (B) described them to me.

On 13th September 2006, I was abit half way recovering and my arms were no longer pain. So I thought I could go out to meet my buyer to pass things to her in Orchard Mrt. I think my hubby, (B) was working at afternoon shift if I was not wrong. I was no choice to meet her as we kept delayed few times due to our clashed schedule. Then I still had some strength to go out even not fully recovery. Then I took bus straight to Orchard and waited for her.. Never expected things happened to me. She stood me up too long and supposed to meet me at 5.30pm sharp. Till 6.15pm, finally her friend who was happening in Orchard too, he came down and collected it from me as he said he will passed it to her on my behalf. She finally sms-ed me to apologise me. I said no need to apologise as all are done. Then I immediately went home by taking cab, unable to take bus or mrt as my fever was coming up soon. As I could feel the pain growing from my back head and could not walk properly.

Lucky I saw the taxi stand at Far East Plaza and texted my hp saying "Uncle! Here is my address. Hurry up. I am not feeling well." I wont texted my unit on hp okie. I did not need uncle to send me to door side, no way. Good thing, uncle could understand english barely. But damn bad traffic along the road in Orchard Road and Expressway due to IMF Singapore 2006. The long time it delayed at road, the more pain keep coming out. I could not hold pain any longer. I perserved myself and said hold it bear with it. I asked uncle to drive abit faster. He tried his best....it took about 1 hour to reach home at 7.30pm.

I took temperature myself and shocked to see its reading at 38.1 deg. Decided to sms Jason immediately. He will call (B) through his work place. (B) arrived home barely before 930pm and he said his boss asked him to leave abit early to look after me. I felt very bad after hearing this.

Guess what (B) bought ? He treated me like a small kid... sobbing.. He bought the fever sticker to paste on forehead to bring down the temperature. He kept lauging at me and saying look like a small girl. I could not stand his devil laughing lor.

On 14th September 2006, I wake up and still not receovering from fever and sore throat... It was such an irrirating & frustrating throughout the few days suffering fever bug. Then my both side body were no longer pain. Neck beneath pain gone away. I put abit smile and concentrate on getting well faster so that (B) wont worry too much. Wanna to lessen his burden somemore.

Only fever & sore throat and the pain from my back head is very very disturbing me and I could not sleep well or think well. I even could not enjoy my favourite fruit juice and milk just because of sore throat pain pain pain...... blah..... Then we decided to see doctor at Simei, not at Tampines. As (B) said that the doctor at Simei Clinic is good as he seen him before. So I tried to go there with (B).

I remember the first one thing happening on 11/09/2006. Little strange, the doctor at Tampines side clinic said my throat inflected. I started to wonder what is throat inflected...looks like this doctor is not professional because he looks very young. Of course, I had no confident in young doctors. All the way, I thought it was sore throat and no wonder it could not recover well. Then the professional doctor at Simei checked and found that I had throat ucler. Maybe I ate mooncakes too much. But I just had Strawberry Lotus and Brown Lotus and Red bean. Left is durian mooncake, I dislike durian.

That was how I knew till now. No wonder it was so so so painful when I drank water or eating something soft food. Even cold drink like milk also cannot. I bear with painful when I drank water.

Guess what the professional doctor said?? He said can eat ice - cream to numb the pain of throat ulcer. haha.. I started to smile and wondering why it was like this. So (B) and I went to NTUC to buy ice - cream back home. I ate ice - cream single and when it touced the skin of ulcer, it turned out pain and tolerate it. Till it melts down, the pain numbed for while. At worse, I never encounter this kinda of painful feeling.

On 15th September 2006, fever had gone away and only still is throat ulcer. I could move around and watched Princess Hour 2 DVDs to forget the pain. I was getting sick of eating porridge since 11th Sept till now. I miss my own cooking like tofu peasant, veggy and fish and else alot.

This is mooncake box - Lavender I bought from JUSCO, Malaysia JB last week.

This is my drawing with expression to WHACK BANG those mooncake......

Victory Drawing with leg kick mooncake out of my sight till mooncake pieces shattered......

Pardon me.. My drawing is getting worse... oh it looked very childish look alamk.. it was not look like what i did art drawing expert during my secondary 1 to 2 then ... Anyway art drawing is not my choice after I was channelled to Secondary 3 to 4 (Geography & Principle of Account) class last time.

*p/s: - if you find my drawing so ugly or childish, you can cover your eyes and do not look at it. haha.... :))

Best Spicy / Black Pepper at Changi Village Road

On 9th September 2006 (Saturday), B and J were having 2-hours bowling training at SAFRA Tampines while I was sitting & reading fashion magazine to create alot of fantastic & creative ideas for my work. Till about 8 at night, we went to Changi Village. Alamak, we hailed the taxi and then suddenly I noticed something wrong with taxi driver with long pony tail using longer road to Changi Village about 25 mins to reach. I realised he was using PIE from Tampines SAFRA to Changi Village and wanted to alert B (my hubby). But chose to keep quiet till reached there then tell him. Should be about 15 mins to reach there using Tampines to Loyang isnt it. Over nevermind....Now we were walking to look for seafood restaurant...

This is the best seafood restaurant (LEE HUP LEE SEAFOOD & BBQ). Hey... unfortunately was that we missed the chance to eat BBQ chicken wings and staty as it only closes at 8pm. We reached there after 8pm sigh..... I took this picture from where we found the seats to sit because almost 98% tables are full. But only this seafood opens from 11am to 11pm daily. Relax lah... hehe..

I finally found the block and quickly took this picture for you all in case you want to go there to try out the biggest crab in Changi Village...really.. I am not kidding you anyway.. You only seen the small or normal size of crabs found somewhere in seafood at some coffeeshop. This is the Block 3 Changi Village Road and it is slightly nearer to Puala Ubi Ferry Centre if I am not wrong as I had been to Puala Ubi four times before for Outward Bound Camp and Survival & Leadership Training Camp when I was in between secondary two to three then.

Told you already ...... See all the tables are fully...even you may never find the empy tables to grab... in end you gotta to wait till 11pm then you will go home with sulk face... hahaha.... kidding... The seafood staffs are friendly and nice, they will help you to find tables for you lah.

This is my idea and I am trying to experiement with this HEINEKEN Beer bottle like this... I did not know why I like to doing like this. I just like to take photos which must be candid or interesting with some concepts within. Alamak.. I wished is that I should be in Art Director Marketing for Heineken to boost on rising sales because new beer from Thailand - Chang launched already. Alot people drank this new thai beer.

This picture is non flashing... Just testing only... The bottle at right side slanted against the glass was empty. It looks blanded and abit dark...so i tried another way... see down ......

This is the flashing picture..more brighter and can see the green colour appeared.. Green should be seen as the bottle is green color. oh...sound interesting promotion to create for this Heineken like saying - Buy 2 Heineken Bottles and enjoy 1 free flow glass....think what I am just creating interesting ideas only. Not real ones.

This glass is not Heineken as it is Tiger so I hide it behind... that is why you see no logo picture on glass.. This is only first basic of photos...

Heineken Fans - who loves to drink this same beer since then. They didnt change any brand of beers to drink. New spokepersons for Heineken ??? hahaahaha... oh sorry I bet you know who they are.. I have to cover part of their faces to protect their identifies. Not only them, I also protect the identify of my family, relatives, my good friends and B & J's friends in army camp. I do not like to show them too much to public blog here and i prefer to keep in low profile. Not like xiaxue's world well-known celebrity blogger. *grinz......*

Here is the first dish arrival on table - SPICY Biggest Crab with 3 toasted buns. ops... one bun is missing as J ate because he was very hungry. We waited for food to ready very long about 30 minutes approx but worth waiting and food turns out so YUMMY !~!~!~!~!~!~! >>>>> DROOLING...... hahaha... It is biggest crab more than what you think... I think you all have seen small crabs in fish tank (glass) in normal seafood at coffeeshop right.. This LEE HUP LEE is different.. all biggest crabs are kept in individual big thick box.. very heavy crabs lah..

This is spicy mussles.... Compared to streamed mussles in Thailand is very different. I simply cannot describe it in detail.. But this one is not bad.

Ordered 5 dishes - Spicy Crab, Black Pepper Crab, Spicy Mussles, KongKong (spicy veggy) and sting ray. Suitable for about 4 persons to have those meals. Only 3 persons, simply could not finished it..but slowly........

See....Black Pepper Crab is very big and shell also bigger... Guess what it's weight?? I had seen the receipt of this weight.. it was 52.8kg.... can you imagine it ?? I did not know it till I saw the receipt. Shocking.......

I used the spoon (same size as your spoon at home) to measure this bigger claw of crab. Shell is very thick and hard to take out. Need much strength to break the shell then eat the meat. You see spicy juicy everywhere on claw is nicer to eat. The meat inside is more soft and tender...just right to eat slowly.

I immediately held J before eating this.. I asked him to put his hand near to this claw. This claw is just abit bigger than his hand. Next time you try order Black Pepper Crab with your friends then you will know. Once you see this crab, your eyes will keep blinking and rolling many times till your jaw will opened for a while ...really.. hehe.... I am not talking craps here further.....

Finally after 2 hours slowly eating those biggest crabs....Poor crab bones were all broken... shattered everywhere on table... B and J managed to finish those.. I gave up at half way as I could not finish this crabs. I only ate 2 claws (spicy and black pepper) then ate the other rest like mussles or else only. I think it is more suitable for men who can finish the big crabs as they have bigger stomachs than women.

Friends, I highly recommend you all to have chance to eat this yummy crabs and I gave LEE HUP LEE Seafood Restaurant rating 4 out of 5.

Why I gave this rating and missed out the rest of one score? The main reason was that because of BBQ chicken wing and staty closes so early at 8pm. Should extend to 11pm same as this seafood. I noticed many people went to this stall and the men said closed. So B also tried go there and asked this. He said the same thing. Sigh....

12 Cool Men with tattoos at Bugis Junction Open

On 1st September 2006 (Friday), after meeting my cilent for my project task and rushed to Bugis to buy Red Earth make-up stuffs.. Then saw alot of people gathering at this open, not sure what show was about. So I dragged my friend along to take peep and started to drool when saw damn cool men coming up to do catwork with their tattoos on body. Half naked with tattoos on their upper body and only in jeans.... whoa...

Sigh... I could see what the event was about... Cannot be Ubran Male competetion. Saw the banner in tent mentioned Stage High.... ...I unable to read it fully as too many people standing at left side to see at centre. That was why I was standing at right side and cannot see clearly. So held little compain over this. Opsss.....
Sorry man...I got to protect the innocent & pretty lady so I covered her face. I hate men abuse women pictures anyhow. Of course I am woman, sure have some respect from you guys if we respect you in fair return. Guess what... This lady was giggling all the time and told her friend about those guys on stage. Her face blushed with red.. hahaha... We seen it.. *see 4th pic below - girl's face blushed red... *

We failed to walk closer to the stage to take clear & hottie pictures of those tattoos guys... Damn those KIASU people who stood near to stage.. Look at old man in white tee & collar...is he looking at pretty picture girl (with question mark shown on it) or he just want to see at guys? Is he sercet gay?? hahaha.. sorry.. gotta to end my tease / jokes.

The mark (tick shown on it) which means attracted to me and my female friend. From the left hand side, 5th guy is the most charming look and tall among those 12 guys and the 7th guy got hard seen toning 6 abs made us drooling... Wish he is our dear boyfriend... ops.. better less selfish.

I was shaken by my female friend when I was about taking pictures. It turned out so blur. sad.. She was too excited to shake my arm as the 7th guy with tone 6abs took turn to do catwalk.

Finally... passed my target of took picture of this guy with tone 6 abs... But he walked like a robot and did not do catwalk in such a professional model one. He walks like normal...so boring.. Still we like him in his toning 6 abs, just like TCS actor Vincent Ng who achieved obtain 6 - 8 abs within 10 weeks which his book is now publishing in every bookshops. Learn from him if you want to have 6abs.....shehehehehe....

TCC (Cafe) - Unique Interior Design

Can you guess where is it? Look at those interesting design of cafe outlet where I managed find and it left me such a impression. It made me wanting to stay longer and refused to leave.

This cafe is very very relaxing and feeling like you treat it as your own room design like this. It is at CLARKE QUAYalong the Singapore river. Alot of tourists walking past this TCC.

Managed to take pictures of this before customers came to sit those empty seats. I was sitting on U-shaped soft seat of 1st table and took entire inner design of this. What do you think of this? I only like this soft seat and like to keep swing myself on it. No idea of myself why I appreciate this design of cafe.
gosh... it is not prefect picture taken... maybe I was swinging my seat while taking this picture which is quite blur... er... try again to take best shoot in my next visit to this cafe...hehehe... I like the funny lighting and it is more suitable to my room as my room is using orange light. Not white lighting effect.
This is the most shocking to my eyes when I came to this Clarke Quay and never expect to see such a werid design like this...see the 3rd picture. I started to image that the 4 huge circle with pink light..look like UFO alien eyes trying to get all the people on earth. hahaha... just kidding lah. I like this area as more breeze around as it is nearer to Singapore River. Maybe it helps to boost the tourists attraction. Think you better visit this area then you will find too much interesting to see alot different architect of Clarke Quay.
Now you see this last picture I taken. I was wondering why the designer chose to design like this. Uncertain of what it looked like..... When I went inside, seen most of cafes or restaurants which you see all are glasses door or windows.... Many things changed at Clarke Quay... I really cannot explain those clueless designs there...I hope tourists do enjoy their days there..... :))

My 1st time - Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2006

This picture is such a good photo taken. The guy has a real spirit look of winning the completed route. But to my other 2nd option, he looked like feeling very exhausted and even his eyes closed tightly... I will said THUMB UP to the person who took this excellent picture.

This is the original route map of Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2006. But this map looks more tough than the route map of SAFRA Sheares Bridge Run 2006. Gotta to read this map over many times in order to get familiar with it.

WHY I am doing this ??

The new reason is that my first time to sign up for this Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2006 and it looks very very new to me. Because I had partipant SAFRA Sheares Bridge Run 1999 and 2006 already and became familiar with it. So I knew what to do like how to deal with myself when I was going to run on the road. I have hearing condition like (hearing impaired) so I had to know everything to be prepared before I started to go running so that nothing will happened to me.

When my dear is already signed up this for me and I decided to go in internet about this event and read everything about event information, route guide and else... till I saw the Race Catergory and Start Times. For example: Men catergory starts running at 07.00am while I (woman) starts running at 07.30am. I started to sweating & wondering after see this.

Start Times
Marathon - 06:00 am
Half Marathon - 06:30 am
10km - Men* - 07:00 am
Team - Men* - 07:00 am
Team Mixed (Men)* - 07:00 am
10km - Women* - 07:30 am
Team - Women* - 07:30 am
Team Mixed (Women)* - 07:30 am
Kids Dash - 10:00 am
Wheelchair - 10:15 am

* All men participating in the 10km, Team, and Team Mixed categories will commence their race at 07:00am.* All women in the 10km, Team and Team Mixed categories will commence their race at 07:30am.

Because on 27th August 2006 - SAFRA Sheares Bridge Run 2006, my dear was running together with me to complete 10km and he helped to interpreter like saying rain was coming soon or also heard 1 army guy said to run 10km was on left white 6km city fun run was on right. My dear told me this as I could not hear him. If not for him, I might ran to the wrong route.

Now is Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon will be more difficult for me as I will be running at different timing from my dear. So seem like that I have to run alone all the way to finish 10km myself, gosh....gosh... :((

Think I seem cannot seek some help from this organisation of Standard Chartered Marathon about this...I really wish they allow me to run together with my dear at 07.00am instead 07.30am. If not, I may have no choice to run alone to challenge myself to finsh 10km. :((

Good luck to you SCS Marathan signed up runners for this coming on 3rd December 2006.

My 2nd SAFRA Sheares Bridge Run 2006 - 10km

A RECORD of more than 65,000 participants showed up on Sunday for the 15th Safra Sheares Bridge Run & Army Half Marathon on 27th August 2006, Sunday.

Runners / Marathoners are running and walking and jogging all the way toSheares Bridge, which is so near to Esplanada. Even young kids also partipanted this even.

This is the orginal route map of SAFRA Sheares Bridge Run 2006 which showed the different colours of different routes like 21km, 10km and 6km.

Took picture of this stuffs at home and this is my 2nd certification of completed running 10km finally.

Thanks to Benny's army friend who suggested this and he asked me if I wanted to partipant in or not. Come to think about my first time I joined running 5km in same event (Safra Sheares Bridge) in either 1999. I still remember that I finished running 5km by only 25 minutes when I was only Secondary 3.

Running had become my long term passion when I passed my first record for 2.4km which clocked 12.05s when I was in Secondary 2. Then Miss Tan (my PE teacher) asked me to join her club (Cross Country Club) which was my 3rd ECA. Grateful to her that she did not mind my hearing condition and allowed me to join her club. I was extremely happy and went to MacRitches Reservoir every saturday morning with students together.

Not only this, I also joined another Track & Field Club at Singapore Recreation Committee for Deaf from 1998 to 2001. I partipanted many events such as 100m, 200m, 400m and 800m and 4x100m relay. Of course, I once won alot of Gold and Shiver medals tally about 30 for 3 years. But I threw it away as it left me no meaningful as those years I only partipanted in handicapped events.

Lucky my former coach recommended me to partipant in 5km SAFRA Sheares Bridge Run 1999. This was my 1st chance which I was not going to miss it out. So give it a try.

After completed running 5km, it has boosted my confidence and also seen alot of hearing people who running all the way with me. With my hearing impaired did not affect me when I was running on the road. I depend on my hearing aids to alert me.

Then by the time when come to 2001, I quitted from Track & Field Club due to my studies & working commitments that dragged me deeply. Nearly lost passion in running then switched to play bowling.

However running is still remain inside me and it never fade away from me. Just that I have no friends who love running as much as I do. I am only one person who loves sports rather than my friends. So I tried my best to pick up again and started running alone to build up my strength and stamina.

Now I am already late 20s, still can running...shhehehehe.... Then finally time flies fast. It will be my 2nd time - I decided to sign up the recent event 15th SAFRA Sheares Bridge Run 2006, together with my dear and his army friends.

On actual 27th August 2006, when I was walking on the road, I prayed and talked to my heart that I will perserve my strength & stamina to finish the 10km route. Last time was 5km. Admitted that I have not train myself earlier before this event.

Seen very biggest crowd 65,000...wow... gotta to give myself a best and wanted to challenge myself to run with those army guys and regular runners. I do not care if I cant hear or need help from people just becoz of my deafness. So what ?? It is not my first time anyway.

Then when come to start point, we all were prepared to run but I was blocked all those army guys and I had to struggle through many guys to speed up running.

Running....running....sweating....hold my perserve tightly and never never stop at half way... then saw the white sign which showed the route 1km to 10km. I kept running till saw 3km...and notice many people started to walk and ended up blocking me....admitted it irrirated me much...

Then I keep running past those slow runners or walker behind me and then soon went up to Sheares Bridge and said to myself to go up faster..becoz there is the 2nd or 3rd water point to grab drink.... thristy & sweating over my body..

Still keep on running non stop and never expected that rain started very heavily.. still i had to run non stop.. but noticed many people took short cut or took shelter from rain... When came to Suntec City, also seen group of army guys stopped there and looking me...Ignored them and gotta to run run run run run.....

Finally saw the sign 6km past, I told Benny that we got 4km more to go..We all nodding and running all the wet road during rainy day. Ran past Republic Avenue and Marina Promenada, my legs started to feel very exhausted and even my wet shoes too heavy to run faster. Feeling very very tired and nearly wanted to take some walks..but refused as I said must perserve myself already... Thought of take out of my wet shoes and ran on bare foot but cannot... No choice, keep on running all the way along Marina Promenada.

Till we came very close to the Esplanada, then the sign showed 500m to go... I started to hold breathe and ran abit faster to end the long sweating & suffering 10km route.....I screamed at benny to run faster with me...

Finally closer to 10km finish point, I ran like a mad to the end.....After finishing 10km clocked in 1 hour 15 mins, I was very happy and hugged benny. Then my feets started swollen due to wet shoes during wet rainy.

After that, we went to Shaw Towner to change clothes and slippers....gosh..saw my water bruises on my feets... crying... then suddenly my both legs aching...painful... Limping walk all the way to sentosa to relax and played in sea abit.... Now I understand the meaniningful of "No Pain & No Gain".

Then Benny asked me about the next event - Standard Chartered Run 2006 which is on 3rd December 2006 if i not wrong ...gosh...^_^"....undecided to run 10km competitive or fun run 21km.

Looking forward to this event..... I gotta to prepare early run training as I want to try finish 10km run by less than 60mins will be the greatest achieve to me... sheehehe ...will try my best..

See you at next coming - Standard Chartered Run 2006 on 3rd December 2006...
