total surrender

Monday. Odac training. Almost jumped when james lee mentioned we were running 4 km. Huatily, it was done in 4 sets each requiring a run around the school, up 1 flight of stairs (and 1 flight is 7 storeys) and 20 push ups and sit ups. Quite intense but the after-effect is quite shiok, even though it is relatively draining. A bit of a haha happened during the last set:
J2 (at 7th floor of A block):"We will do up the sets (ie the pushups and situps) then chiong down the stairs and all the way back."
Willy (telling yizhang and me): "Oh, it sounded like we do the sex here."

Today had no odac training, sad. But me, gerald tay, pason, poey and kenneth lu just decided to do some PT after sch. Sets of running, dips, situps, pushups. Quite tiring.

Then played bridge with teddy, pason, (a) justina, and teddy and pau's classmates: andrea and subsequently jenny. I could hardly believe i played from 2.30 - 5.30, an unproductive but rather satisfying way of spending 3 hours. And today i found out that there was one other dude in rj who shares the same name and he comes in the form of a "gerald lau". Also if teddy's name were to conform to the gep habit of switching the first letter with a "p", he would become a peddy and can go for a pedicure. And when playing bridge always get straight to the point, never bid around the bush.

If you got absolutely no idea what the shit the above paragraph was about, then don't try and make sense of it.

In other news, the news (pun unintended) reported a gunfight that took place in this sunny island yesterday. Technically, i wasn't a gunfight since only one party fired the gun but still...its quite rare that such stuff happen in this sunny island. Robber tries robbing woman working at toto stall at gunpoint. Kopes handbag and security guard nearby hears the scream of the damsel in distress. Gives chase and gets fired at by the robber. Huatily, the shot missed (and the news show the depression in the staircase which the bullet hit) and the robber eventually got subdued by the security guard.

Your stereotype of a security guard would probably be one middle aged ah pek who is too massive to run and your sense of security would probably be zero. But this one in this case was the gungho hero and really did his duty to protect the premises and its stakeholders. (although it was really a bit imba to go after a robber without anything but your bare fists. Unless your bare fists are bear fists.) I salute this security guard man, whatever his name may be. The true advanced man.

Moving on to dedications...
To willy, a happy birthday to you. Alas, your humchee np buddy me did not get you a willie (be it the whale, horse, ox or deer one) for your birthday and neither a condom for your "clothes".
