Wow. Thursday moved so fast that before I knew it, Friday is over and here we are now, 12.11am Singapore time.

In a way, the programme was carried out, but not to the letter. First thing in the morning I received an SMS from my swimming buddy saying he couldn't make it. No problem. I still went ahead but changed my venue and eventually time. Time cos I woke up at 10am. I couldn't really sleep last night so I turned the Tee Vee on and watched the first half and the last 10 minutes of the Portsmouth Vs Arsenal Game. What happened in between was... I fell asleep. Yup. I think my mind and body suddenly remembered I was watching a football game so my eyes opened and saw the scoreline was now 1-1, Van Persie and Hleb already in the game and it was already 80+ minutes into the game. At least I watched the full first half. So once the game was up, I made a beeline for me bed.

So in the morning instead of travelling to neighbouring tranquil Tampines, I boarded a bus to Bedok swimming complex. After countless laps (countless cos I didn't count >.<), I packed up and burned the time at the Library. The Nasi Lemak I ate before I left home was still sustaining me so I skipped lunch.

Then at 1.30 I made my way to school. Again, I followed the programme but altered the content. Yeah, we did train from 2 to 5. Yes, we covered what I had planned. The only deviation was I added one more set. Yay-ness.

After that training I made my way to Kembangan, ate my Lunch-cum-Dinner at Raimah, solat Asar and Maghrib at Masjid Mydin. After all that... I trained yet again.

This time I was the trainee. My Bro in Law conducted a weapon training for seniors and instructors, guided us through the rules and regulations of our school's unique match competition. At ard 1am, my Dad taught us his own weapon movements.

The whole training ended around 3am. Wow. I only reached home around 3.30 (overnight was cancelled- all wanted to go home). I bathed for the 4th time since I woke up before hitting the hay.

In what seems like a few minutes of sleep, my dad woke me up for Friday Prayers around noon the next day. So I got up, bathed, got ready and went for prayers. BTW the sermon yesterday was awesome.

After prayers, we sent my bro in law to his house first before sending a friend to work. By then Eastern Singapore was already drenched. Several parts were already flooded by then, including the industrial areas of Eunos.

Dropping him off, we went to SP where I conducted training from 3 to 6. Alhamdulillah I have finally completed teaching Regu to them. Now can start proper competition preparations.

When I finally finished training, we went straight home, where we ordered KFC, watched TV and simply laaaaaaaazed the rest of the day away.

My, I feel exhausted just typing that all done. LOL
