Mother's Day

♥ look what my Kids gave me today ♥

O Joy it's Raining

i love rain. still remember the times i used to play in the rain when i was a kid - happy, happy, happy.

Merry Month of May

gosh have to clear some cobweb from this space as it has been a while. can't believe it's already May and nearly half the year has gone by. May has always been my favourite month of the year - could never figure out why that is though (hmmm).

The Borneo Marathon happened yesterday (2nd May) - it came early this year! didn't run (10K) as i wasn't confident that i could improve my last year's time (1hr 6mins), haven't been running that much and my Husband wasn't around. next year will do it under 1 hour! next run i'm looking at is the Sutera Harbour 7K Sunset run in July - hoping to finish it in half an hour.

one more weekend before the Malaysia Ultimate Open - just thinking about it has made me exhausted. this would be my last tournament cause i don't think this poor body of mine can take that kind of punishment anymore and i just want to play for fun now.

i don't think i could have picked up the pieces of me this morning if i didn't have a class to teach. will definitely get a massage later today. the little ones in my class were so amuse with my "man voice" - result of playing in the sun the whole day with a sore throat.

just really a slow Sunday for us to recover from yesterday. wondered who turned up for ultimate today?

Purple Reign

didn't get much sleep last night as the nerves had kicked in. woke up early as had to leave the house by 6:30am to have breakfast before the tourne. the day promised to be a scorcher and it didn't disappoint.

we lost our first game to Yellow Sunshine. beat Blue Barracuda and Green Peace but lost to Red Chili. we played Green Peace again in the finals and became the first ever winner of the Borneo Headhunter's Hat - Purple Reign!!

was a long tiring day - we had no energy left after dinner to go for the after game party and i was in bed by 9:30pm as i've developed a massive headache. yes, i'm finally admitting that i'm OLD!!

Under the Weather

got up this morning with a sore throat and achy joints - crap man why now just one more day before the tourne. glad i went for the spinning class though as sweated loads which helped but the stretch class after that nearly killed me.

what is people's obsession with their handphone? during one of the recovery period in the spinning class out of the corner of my eye i saw one of the ladies texting and i'm like how disrespectful is that to the instructor - i know it didn't ring (maybe i didn't hear it over the loud music) but if it was so darn important that you couldn't wait till the class was over take it OUTSIDE! how are you going to improve if you are not focus in class but that is just me. i fell better now - ha!ha!ha!

managed to run but didn't get far (3K) - have lots to do before May!

Slow Wednesday

morning started on a sad note - someone had knocked down a puppy near the corner to the kid's school. the mother dog was licking and nudging the puppy to get up and you could see she was quite upset. she was still there on my way back after dropping the kids off at school. it's a devastating thing to lose a child and even animals have that same instinct and that is why i could never understand how some people could mistreat animals. we have one turtle, two dogs and a dozen fishes. my Boy wants a cat now - i don't think so, who is going to clean up the mess once the dogs get the cat? he actually brought a cat home once thinking maybe i would change my mind once i've seen how cute it was but it didn't work. don't get me wrong i love cats but our dogs don't share that feeling.

my car went in for service this morning so went for breakfast to one of the many places i read in the Ong Sisters' blog so if anyone have no idea where to eat next time check out their blog.

didn't get to run today as my Husband came home late and it started to rain :(
