I love Christmas!

This period is my favourite time of the year. Last Wed was my last working day of the year 2007 and I was enjoying my break. Simply loved the Christmas goodies & deco everywhere. Had great fun shopping & enjoyed the giving spirit of Christmas.

Time passes really fast though. Christmas went passed so quickly. We got our first Christmas tree this year and now I can't bear to bring to bring the glittery deco down.

Christmas eve was spent at our house where we had potluck and gift exchange. Had the deja vu feeling becos we celebrated christmas the same way last year and the people are mostly the same except for some new faces and of cos some missing faces.



Love my christmas present! Gerald got me the limited edition mont blanc business card holder. There's only 1906 pieces in the world and it's in my fav white colour. Almost thought he didn't get me anything and was beginning to sulk. Haha. Very happy because I always wanted impractical and dreamy christmas present. =)

My first half M..

Completed my first 21KM in the Standard Chartered half marathon on 2 Dec 2007. It was my goal to complete one since the SA OBS experience in year 2005. Slowly I worked towards it.. participated in two 10KM runs in year 2006, and quite a few runs this year to increase the milleage. It was certainly an accomplishment since I started developing knee pains 3 weeks before the run. Saw a sport doc and luckily there wasn't a major injury. Just overworked knees which were swelling even the day before the run. Cliche but it brings new meaning to the Adidas tagline "Impossible is nothing"...

OSIM Corporate Triathlon (3 Nov 2007) - 5KM

We formed 4 teams to represent the company. 3 in a team and it's relay style i.e. swim 750m, cycle 20km & run 5km. Contrary to common belief of triathlon, it was certainly not tough or competitive.. just some fun with colleagues.

Here's my SL Team with Claudia & Bernard. Real Run (28 Oct 2007) - 15KM

My best running experience this year. Very tough route at the Changi Coast Road area (12km road, 1km sand, 1km trail, 1km runway) with minimal trees providing shelter. Glad I did it in 1h 39mins.

Great Eastern Women Run (21 Oct 2007) - 10KM

Did this with Jennifer. Particularly like the pic on this cert. Very focus... hehe

Bull Run (12 Oct 2007) - 3.2KM

Another fun run with colleagues. We left office early on Friday to join this and it's foc! Many other companies do it for fun too and every year they have the bosses challenges where bosses will run in shirt, tie & pants.. what a sight!
