~ Army Half Marathon ~



Hah. Saturday night went to yEast coast park to prep for the army half marathon which happened on sunday. was involved in setting up some barricades and stuff as well as marshalling duty. basically just stand there and see if got ppl faint, stuff like that.

so we did things until 3+ 4 lidat. (cud've ended earlier and gotten more rest.. but.. ~_~) got woken up at 5.15 to get ready for the race. they are at least 10km away from where i am, and the race starts at 5.30 -_- wake me up at 5.15...

if not for the tiring part, i'd say standing there and watching ppl run is actually quite interesting. haha.

cos i saw quite a few ppl there. all from diff parts of my life. some i recognise but they dun recognise me. some we recognise each other. from army to jc to sec sch. really quite the variety. waha.

which led me to tink. sometimes life, its like a longggg marathon race. sometimes the road is curved, sometimes its straight and often there are ups and downs. and there isnt only just you running, there are many many people running the same marathon as you. sometimes you meet a friend or 2 on the way and you pace each other. other times when u speed up towards your goal, you forget bout that friend whom you were running with and when u finally look back, you can no longer see that friend. some people get tired so they walk or slow down. some stop by the side to stretch their cramped legs. but we should never ever give up on the marathon no matter who organised it no matter when ur doing it, we should at always try our very best to reach the end point.

been doing some sketching recently. haha. its really fun cos very often i'll express my feelings into what im drawing. though im not that much of a drawer(im more of a shelf. ok nvm.) but its still really enjoyable. dats bout it. i noe, i still owe pics from last time. haha. see how la. =p
