rolling in the deep

opps. i think its time for some updates. haha.

let see, in no random order other than the order in which i happened to upload the photos:

jups wedding
attending jups & ruix wedding dinner at sentosa cove at ONEdegree15.
it was a pretty cool place with all the yatcht and atas looking interior.
and the hotel rooms did look really fancy and posh.
it was nice to see a bunch of climbers coming together for this happy celebration. :)

real happy for the 2 of them! haha.
ruix looks exceptionally pretty.
but shu got more blown away by the grooms brother. hahaha.
and doris ended up abit cuckoo after awhile.
and we had jam as souveniers!

some of us exco members with the groom.


kite flying
went on a random fly kite date with some of the girls. haha.
quite shiok to just nua in the sun and not do anything.
daffy and siying most busy with untying the knot in yuxin's kite reel though. :p
but we had ham and cheese sandwiches made by doris!
and usual unglam moments of ost.
and im proud of my easy-to-fly big kite! haha.
and it was nice to catch up with siying again esp after she got back from her trip.



ok, this photo was random.
but dor was commenting once about finishing a route and then ending with 2 hands and looking down or up to smile at the camera with a "binbin smile".
so i had to put it up to remind myself to smile like binbin as such:

HAHA


pumpfest
as seen from my shameless exclamation in my previous post about pumpfest, i did win 2nd!
and im very much proud of my first podium finish in the open category. :)
for a few days after that, i felt pretty awesome and felt like telling the whole world. haha.
the routes were very different, not so strength based..
but one thing that really got to me was the distracting cheers for ponti who was climbing along with me during the finals.
man, it made me abit frustrated and hopeless at one point in time.
although i managed to finish all 3 routes, it was a real struggle on that one attempt to get it right and good.
i guess playing various semis and finals in loud cheering rjc/vjc infested enclosed stadiums really trained me for this little moment. haha.
(and of course who can forget the never ending screams from coaches on court)

i hope to see more from myself in the next few comps..
but makes me wonder if im gonna keep competing man.
i guess im still "young" in this sport, so i wont be retiring so soon.
but after playing competitive netball for 10 years, i wonder if i'ld still be climbing after 10 years.
maybe this time it'll be different...
coz no more 2.4km runs every training, early in the morning, struggling to best our previous timings.
now theres even free water breaks, can go buy 100plus or kitkat even.

met up with some peeps for lunch at the garden slug with arvin.
sort of a farewell before he goes to india. haha.
