The moment

Barry Manilow - Can't smile without you

You know I Can't Smile Without You,
I Can't Smile Without You,
I can't laugh
and I can't sing,
I'm findin' it hard to do anything.
You see, I feel sad when you're sad,
I feel glad when you're glad,
If You only knew what I'm go ing through,
I just Can't Smile Without You.
You came along just like a song
and brightened my day,
Who'd've believe that you were part of a dream
Now it all seems light years away.
And now you know I Can't Smile WIthout You,
I Can't Smile Without You,
I can't laugh and I can't sing,
I'm finding it hard to do anything.
You see, I feel sad when you're sad,
I feel glad when you're glad,
If you only knew what I"m going through,
I just can't smile.
Now some people sa y happiness takes so very long to find.
Well I'm finding it hard leaving your love behind me.
And you see,
I Can't Smile Without You,
I Can't Smile Without You,
I can't laugh
and I can't sing,
I'm findin' it hard to do anything.
Y ou see, I feel sad when you're sad,
I feel glad when you're glad,
If You only knew what I'm going through,
I just Can't Smile Without You

To the cherry on top

KPEd

Lena seen here taking a moment before the run, at the entrance of KPE. There were music, people conducting warm-ups, kids, and there were aunties. quite alot of them lol. Loads of them.

Gosh. Yep.

Me after the tunnel run. LOl. A little breathless, felt that the tunnel was pretty stuffy and humid in some areas. Luckily they turn on the ventilation fans. Besides the lack of oxygen and someone fainting( a photo crew and not runner), everything was pretty cool! Free goodie bag too!


Lena, feeling great, and didn't complain about the stuffiness! Maybe ladies know a thing or two more than guys regarding "stuffiness" lol We did a rather good 10km under 1hr 6 mins. Cheers!!!
And just when i thought i have enough marathons for the year, decided to take up Terry Fox Run for Hope with Kenneth.. Faints!!!

Weekended

Last weekend was another "Healthy Lifestyle" affair. Finally(Yes finally) went to the Hilltop walk at Mount Faber lol! Followed by the KPE run :P Meet up with Kenneth, another Nature freak like me :P, and we headed for the little hike! Thankfully, it wasn't raining anymore, and the weather was surprising good!


The Starting point... Mount Faber


Looking "ready", picture ready! :P

Alexandra Wave... Very beautiful structure

Along the Hilltop walk :)


Near Telong Blangah


Kenneth and that face


Yup, this is pretty much what you see everywhere... Green.. Green and sometimes, some brown.

Peeping tom alert! Never knew he had such a hobby lol


Went Astons with Roger at Tampines. Yup, not at Katong but a little Kopitiam in a quiet part of Tampines! Have never tried their western food before, but it's pretty good and reasonably priced... Comes with the main and 2 sides. I had their signature Lemon-lime Chicken chop while Roggie had Sirloin steak (act Atas!) MUNCH!!


My Lemon-lime Chix!


Western meets Guiness

Boo!! My adorable Yearbook pic. Will upload some KPE run pics later.. Have a good lunch :)

Trippin'

Sunday, finally a sunny day :) All smiles.. went to tan in the morning with Rog. Felt like the care free old days :P Took a bus after to Bugis to run some errands. Have been taking quite a bit of buses lately. Starting to appreciate them! The sights and sounds in the NEL are incomparable to what springs on you along the bus route. Like this cute signage around Geylang. Sounds so right yet wrong.


Had Selegie Chicken rice for lunch.. along Parklane center area.


Gosh! We ordered half a chicken and finished it!


Some sights and sounds(imagine them) during dinner with mum n pa in Chinatown.


Those were the days when, as a kid, you eagerly choose your fav lantern to "show off". So many choices now!


I tell you, i may seem like some Chinatown Spokesboy, but i just love that place. Have been there since young, eating porridge on sunday mornings, "playing", to working there! Gosh! Almost like soulmates!


How can we forget that every happy meal in Chinatown ends with Durians! YES YES lol


Arr..... Tuck in!

Find find my way

In my never-ending quest to look(sometimes to the point of hunting) for THE one, i also have another quest wo. That is my strong appetency for cute animals! LOL no Im not some sick fellow, just that i like to keep pets :) Currently replenishing my marine tank after a crash few months back, decided to head to Seletar Farmway. If you have been to Pasir Ris Farmyway, you might think that is ULU. But nothing can compare to Seletar!!

Imagine traveling back to the 1900s, and mostly all around you is untouched jungle. Spent an hour locating the pet farms(the rest were foreign workers' residence.. scary!) Would be a good idea to drive instead. Kanna bitten by mosquitoes some more! Those who wanna experience the army life in the jungle, can try venturing here :)

Finally i found a road which had rows of fish farms. With names like Seaview Aquariums, Ocean Pte Ltd, and stores with Seahorses and corals as logos, i thought at least some should have marine fishes. But to my horror, none even had a tiny drop of salt water!!!! (Maybe they do.. for treatment of sick fishes.. but still!!!!!!). All i saw were jiggling fat goldfishes and freshwater species.

So much for good co-relation in branding. I sadly headed back (busily scratching legs and face). Still trust chinatown fish shop better! :)
