NWOD - EDISPU <=
If you can understand the title, you would understand the frustration i get in the pool this morning.
Managed to get to the pool in time, in a typical Nascar fashion. I like the feeling of being slightly earlier before the gate start and enjoy the "market" atmosphere on Tuesday morning. Today doesn't seem to be as crowded as last week.
I am excited about my newly brought swim goggle. It seems so cool. I going to test my goggle in the pool. Ya....
The horrible start when i plunge into the pool. Water find its way to squeeze into my right side of the goggle! TMD! One thing i hate is water slip into the google....#@$#@$@#@#
I try to swim a lap, adjust the goggle and adjust the contact lens as well! Try again for another lap with different combination. It seems like breast stroke leak lessen water, whereas freestyle ...sigh..... I look at the goggle, the only adjustable are the straps, nothing else....hhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa........No matter how i tighten the goggle water seem to have a way to find a way IN! $@#$@%#$#
Something is wrong with my facial bone structure on my right side. The goggle is not designed for ME...Sob...Sob....A case of wasted $ for the goggle again. It is the same with those pairs i have purchase throughout the years.
By the 7 laps of swim, i was about to throw the goggle away and walk to the locker to change back my old pair of trusted goggle. Miracle happen.
On the 8 lap, i decided to invert the goggle and the rest, i would say is history.
Finished total of 40 laps in 59:25 min today + 2 laps of warm down.
Why is it, from an inverted point of view, there is always a silver lining somewhere behind the rumbles?

Ajisen Ramen
Decide to skip gym today as tonight MF training will be tough. Have not been running with the MF for a long time. Just need to give myself more rest time to prepare for the run later. It has been some showering in certain parts of Singapore. I hope it don't rain later!
Not really a fan, but somehow was craving for noddles for lunch. So ended up at Ajisen for lunch.
Cha sou ramen & baby octopus so so nia. Even desert, looks good, but wasn't that special.
Came down to basement and saw a confectionery shop. Hmm...the bread and cookie...looks so sinful! Suddenly tigger horns start to wiggle... wonder why....
Sigh....i have sin again...

One - Eye Mount Faber Tigger
Woke up this morning with some dirt on my left eye, didn't even bother looking into the matter.
This afternoon, the left eye become watery. More dirt appeared...Chaim lah! Too heaty leow....Already drink lots of water since 2 days ago and lost count of numerous occasion whereby have to rush into toilet!
Left eye get worst until at times i can't see anything from the left side! Some time just blur imagines. Sigh....
Reached MF around 6:30pm. Changed to my running gear and about to join the group upstairs and suddenly the left eye get blurred again. TMD, don't tell me i have to skip the run tonight! I pause to consider my option for a while and remind myself, WEAK MIND? Ok, i decide to join the training and see how it goes! I will stop when situation worsen.
Today the group is more than 20 pax. Cosmic decided to join us for the run. Today training is 5 sets of Mount Faber loops and 3 sets of staircase climbing.
It wasn't a tough run, neither was it plain cruising as well. I do feel abit tired compare to the last trip up this loop. The timing is about the same timing i did the last time 9:30 min
Next is the staircase climbing. Due to the early rain, the stairs are wet and slippy! Lighting along the stairs are not the best around. Doing it with 1 eye make it more challenging! I was thinking again to skip the climb due to safety reason. Alas, seeing everybody doing it, Sigh....must be strong(i tell myself).Well I did 3 sets at the end risking tripping and falling down the steep staircases! I do not know why i did it! Ego? Crazy? Weak Mind? Whatever!
Did a jog back to clubhouse, warm down and wash up.
It is a challenge as well to drive back home with the slight disability...
P/S: Do not attempt running with 1 eye! Not to be mimic!
