the main event today was ippt! after working on some changes (again) to the work in the afternoon, i headed to bedok yet again for another round of ippt! i was slightly late, and got almost one of the last number tags they gave out for the day.
i managed to complete my 6 laps albeit the weather changing for the worse by the third lap. the sky remarkably dried up for a while in the afternoon. the tartan was damp, but it was still runnable. and yes, i pushed the last lap and barely made it! my 2.4km run was completed with 12' 15"... barely 5 seconds to spare. breathless yet overjoyed, i was all over the place after the run. well ok no really i didn't. i was just really out of breath, considering i pushed myself for the last 100 metres. i'd already felt the slight drizzle on my face as i ran halfway. but i continued on. unexpectably, i made it in time! i thought i would have missed by a few seconds again... but the final dash proved me wrong.
at last, fortunately for me, i managed to pass the ippt for this window. can heave a humongous sigh of relief now. yay me! and what's more is it comes with incentive $$$... not much, and neither was i hoping to get it. it's just a privilege that i'd gotten it, not a right.
the weather was freaky today. what was different from the past few days' worth of rain was that, there was rain today. and then there wasn't. and then there was again. you get the picture... the rain clouds were showering as if there's a huge guy up there peeing all over us, but with hiccups. hence the intermittent pauses inbetween. well as long the pause was long enough for me to complete my 6 laps in time to pass, i don't care how huge a downpour the rainclouds bring.
oh and i received a phone call today shortly after i left the bedok camp. an interview for me tomorrow! let's see what comes...
stress~~~
pressure~~~
can i move out of my home asap? i'm not happy.
*me no like tight grip! :( *
