Good FRiDay
I'm so glad i started the day on the right note. Perhaps it was the case of getting up on the right side of the bed (~hee~shudder..).
Hmm..let's see, it was in the year of 2005 when i last lay my legs on a running track. Today, i finally managed to drag myself to do it. Do not ask what came over me. I was so ambitious. On the way there, i was telling myself how fit i would be if i could do 12 rounds on the track.. HAHA! unfortunately, i only got around to do 4.. HEy`hey` not bad for a 'beginner' yar..hee
Actually, what drove me to stay fit? I had occasional nightmares of not being able to put on skinny jeans and saying adios to hot, sizzling, mini dresses. Urghh...
Hmm..i plan to make it a routine (the exercise)..
Anw, i was only at the stadium for 45mins. Y? firstly, being a 'beginner', i felt myself being rapidly dehydrated + drained of moisture, and my head was spinning. i frequently had to stop my running to fill up my bottle. i drank so much my stomach was fully bloated. not having my sunblock with me does not help either. my mood to exercise needless to say disappeared in a matter of minutes.. HAHA! so much for staying fit yeah.. but hey..good try. at least i'm not squandering my hols away lazing around my ass like a PIg..
Ouh..yeah..made my way to the library too. The whole of last sem, i was burying myself under piles and piles of Lit texts. not that i don't enjoy reading them..it's juz tt sometimes i miss reading something i prefer..heeh
did i ever share that i love Gulf writers? Hmm.. i feel that they've got more to express and share as compared to American and Brit writers. See, in the Gulf..writing becomes a sort of solace and comfort for the people who view normal life from a whole different light. They write not because they are paid for it, or they are eyeing for that NOBEL PRIZE..but they write because they feel that there is a need for the world to know what the Gulf is really like. They write to counter the way foreign writers comprehend their lifestyles. They write without any disposition and i truly respect them for that. if i would recommend any, it would be Miral al-Tahawy. Brilliant..!
Strolling down your neighbourhood on anyday by yourself for just a couple of hours is a good therapy for anybody. there are just so many observations to be made. Life just becomes a little more interesting. For example, it gets terribly amusing to see a group of students hogging up the library entrance at 9.45, with their back-packs, when it was supposedly the school hols.
