Gaining independence

Over the past few days, I realised that I am actually a lot more independent than I thought I were. Perhaps, I have finally grown and matured.

Feeling fortunate and extremely blissful

Reflecting back, in the past two years of my working life, I overcame and did many things that I never thought I could do. I realised that I could actually master anything that I wanted and I am amazed at my capabilities of doing so.

Like what Thomas Edison said, "If we did all the things that we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves." I found this sentence particularly true.

I remember, at one point in my life, I was learning taekwando, learning yoga and training in HTA. In the process, I was able to get a black belt in Taekwando and complete a marathon.

Anyway, I am feeling blissful today as I had the opportunity to spend quality time with my family. Every second is indeed a blessing from the heavens.

My third marathon!!

The last time I updated this blog was last year when I completed the Standard Chartered Marathon 2010. That was the second marathon that I had ever run in my life. Although my second marathon timing was much worse than the first marathon which was the Adidas Sundown Marathon 2010 (I completed that in 5 hours 4 minutes and 15 seconds!), I'm glad that I have improved my timing for my third marathon! I just completed the Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore 2011 yesterday morning and my timing was 6 hours 18 minutes and 46 seconds! Congratulations to me!

My second full marathon!

Completed my second full marathon in 6 hours 38 minutes and 42 seconds despite the total lack of training. Amazing!

I need to be responsible for my own learning

My aim is to complete reading the books on my table before I start working on Monday.

I am glad that I started chatting with one of my ex-primary schoolmate on Facebook today.

A new milestone attained!

I finally completed my first ever 42km run for Adidas Sundown Marathon today in 5h, 4min and 15 seconds!

My mission for today is to read.

Mission oriented life

My mission for today is to print photos for my squadmates and to run 8km tomorrow morning.
