Comic Relief
Ah it is that time of the year when Comic Relief is on and below are 2 clips from 2 of my favourite shows being spoofed.
Thoughts
Well, I was going to write something anecdotal and witty but I’m not. I will say I will update this soon. Maybe, hopefully update the layout a bit more to fit my new logo. Anyway, happy Halloween!
Big Update
So it has been a long long time since I posted something here. All I can say is that it has been a busy time for me. Between completing the Gold Coast Half Marathon and now, I’ve been working like crazy and training for the Sydney Half Marathon. I’ve picked up hip-hop dancing and am looking for new goals to accomplish. Sydney is next weekend. Scared. Petrified. I looked at the cut off times and I might be dead meat. LOL. Almost thinking of changing my event just so I can run over the Harbour Bridge and not worry about missing the cut off. I haven’t done as much running as I would have liked and not entirely sure about my mental capacity. My physical side isn’t the worry. I think I am as fit as I was for Gold Coast but not running mental prepared. I think I will be running on pure adrenaline when it starts.
Here are some pictures of me doing the Gold Coast. Didn’t find any pictures of me running Bridge to Brisbane. Beat my time from last year by 2 mins. So it was 1hr 22mins. Fantastic! It was an extraordinarily hot day. I guess that is enough motivation to keep me going. Knowing I can break my personal best.
Official timing for Gold Coast was 2hrs 47mins. 
For Sydney I will have to beat that by 2 mins to make it within the cut off times. Wish me the best! To make me feel good about running, I bought new running gear. I will be wearing the Lululemon Run:Tempo Crops. So comfy… so smooth… hope it will make me run like the wind!
The deluge continues…
Bligh declares state of emergency in southeast Queensland
Oooo Look at me!
Official Time: 58mins
Placing: 1200 (almost to the end)
Either way I’m still proud. I’m still struggling to run but I’m still trying!
A New Year
Well I can’t get so sleep so I guess I should post my first entry for the new year, 2009. Been working through the holiday season as I will get to go on my annual trip back to Singapore at the end of this month. I am eagerly awaiting it as I so long to have some time out of town and catch up with my family and friends. I miss my folks very much and I haven’t seen Dad for a year now. 
2009 didn’t really start off with a huge bang but NYE was spent with friends and a couple pints of beer which was nice. Went to Surfers on New Years Day and got lovely and brown… but perhaps not brown enough… lol but I am freaking out about the whole skin cancer thing thanks to the “brilliant” ad campaigns that have been on telly over this summer season. Have spent a lot of time in front of the telly watching the cricket and finally understanding everything again since having lost contact with the sport more than 15 years ago. I still think I have more of a passion for rugby… 
Look forward to what 2009 holds despite being a little depressed and over working at the moment. I guess once I get my break I should be back on the wagon and going strong. I am looking forward to starting my running training again to get back into gear for some great run challenges. I will begin shortly a run down of what events I want to take part in and if I do miss some of the early runs this month, I might just catch up when I’m in Singapore. Might be good to get used to the humidity and heat while running.
Well, I guess that is it for now… Hope I get to go to the beach soon before I jet out for 3 weeks.
Dreading the 2 and the 6
Only 2 more days and I’m officially not 25… see 25 is a good age. It’s not really there and it’s not really here, it’s just in the middle. Now, once I cross that next marker, I think I’m going to burst into tears and wonder what I’ve done with my life. I’m not really at all looking forward to it. I’m in fact hoping it won’t happen and it’s all a dream. I always dream of going back in time to when I was a kid… not a care in the world. Not like today, worrying about work, rent, bills and overall sanity. I wonder what I would be like if my head wasn’t screwed on as tight as it is now. I’m in a bit of a mood at the moment and although I’ve been to the gym the last 2 days, I’m feeling like someone has sucked the joy out of me… I feel like Mr. Doom. Sigh… I wonder if it’s that sugar rush that is finally leaving me… I am beginning to wonder if the Gods are playing tricks on me. Bah! Just let me be!! Oh boy… must be getting nervous about my flight to Singapore plus planning my big move down south… the thought of leaving old and new friends is pretty depressing but I do think that Melbourne might just be what I need to get me ahead in life… Who knows! I will miss the beach though…
Poo… life’s a bitch!
Nicest Thing – Kate Nash
My favourite tune of the week… Kinda sums up my state at the current moment. Sad but true.
All I know is that you’re so nice
You’re the nicest thing I’ve seen
I wish that we could give it a go
See if we could be somethingI wish I was your favourite girl
I wish you thought I was the reason you are in the world
I wish my smile was your favourite kind of smile
I wish the way that I dressed was your favourite kind of style
I wish you couldn’t figure me out
But you always wanna know what I was about
I wish you’d hold my hand when I was upset
I wish you’d never forget the look on my face when we first metI wish you had a favourite beauty spot that you loved secretly
‘Cause it was on a hidden bit that nobody else could see
Basically, I wish that you loved me
I wish that you needed me
I wish that you knew when I said two sugars
Actually, I meant threeI wish that without me your heart would break
I wish that without me you’d be spending the rest of your nights awake
I wish that without me you couldn’t eat
I wish I was the last thing on your mind before you went to sleepAll I know
Is that you’re the nicest thing I’ve ever seen
I wish that we could see
If we could be something
I miss Melbourne
I’m back in Brisbane and I wish I was still there.
