A Marathon for life

In 2013, I ran for:

21km Sundown Marathon (June)
21km Army Half Marathon (August)
10km Yellow Ribbon (September)
32km Newton Challenge (October)
42km Standard Chartered (December)

Many hours were invested including trainings. At the end of the year, I reflected what I have achieved?

I thanked God for giving me strength and health. At the same time, it dawned upon me that I have neglected HIM for a long while. I made a promise to be better and spend 5 minutes with HIM for 5 times a day.

deus ex machina

Thank god it was only a dream. It felt so real.

I dreamt that i was held up in a massive traffic jam. No vehicle could move. I dismounted from my bike to see whats the commotion was all about just metres away.

From nowhere, a man ran off with my bike. It was negligence on my part for leaving the key unattended.

I was so afraid to let my parents know what happened as this is not the first time.

Their voices ran over my head over and over again.

When i woke up, i realised that this dream is about how much i missed them. Mum called me last night but it wasn't convenient to talk.

Call me again mum, dad. I miss you.

The haunting tune... I love so much...

Everything's gonna be alright?

In a long-standing relationship/friendship, things happened. Over the years, words are exchanged, sometimes heated, sometimes a cold sarcastic remarks. Intentional or not, somebody's due to get hurt.
So what we do now is pick up the pieces of what is left, and reconsider who and what is worth.
It is naive to think that everyone can just forgive and forget.

Digital SLR

finally, i have bought a dslr. beats me, but suddenly i feel like this is a cliche thing to have. carrying one in public is like the 'in-thing' for the Singaporean man. i think it made it's way to the 5 Cs or something;

car, credit card, condo, cash, country club and a Camera

anyway, i am learning a lot of new things in photography. it gives me the adrenaline rush and a new observation of the space and time. below are some of my shots

its been a year since my last entry

dear bamboleo...

It's been a while. i almost closed you down but i didn't have the heart to. In times like this, i am grateful that you are here.

i am sleepless. i am in a career crossroad. the greatest fear is being stagnant. I have never known what i wanna be. Even a career workshop i had in college rendered useless as they found no match for my profile.

Career wise...Its getting frustrating of late. Not because of the promotion they promised but didn't deliver. It's more of feeling jaded. You do something well and they 'entrust' you with more. They sing praises about you but you don't feel rewarded.

"Knowing what you don't want is a good thing"....

I WANT OUT
