I woke up early this Saturday morning to go for the walk.
Left home at about 6.55 a.m. I was lucky that the bus came
as I was approaching the bus stop. I reached Tampines
Interchange at about 7.15 a.m. I did not want to be an
eager beaver and decided to walk from Tampines Interchange
to Tampines JC. It was a long but refreshing walk.
When I reached Tampines JC, fond memories flooded my mind.
It transported to a time when I was a student there. As I entered
the college, I remembered the 'gate'. It still looked the same. It was
the same gate that my friends and I squeezed out from when we had
to stay late to finish Student's Council work. I had such fond memories
of the place. Every inch of the school reminded me of the great time
I had. The school on the whole did not change much.
When I reached the stadium, I was torn on whether to run or walk.
I decided to go to the toilet to ponder (it is not what you think?? I just
needed to go somewhere to decide if I should walk or run.
I reached a decision, I was going to walk. I was not convinced that
I was able to complete the 1.6 km run in 12 minutes.
I then walked. I did not have to push myself. I walked 5 rounds of
the field and completed it in 18.16s. It was better than last year. I walked
4 rounds and completed it in 18.56s. Not that bad!
After the walk, I had to get my heartbeat. I was all sweaty and wet.
But it had to be done. My heartbeat was 112. Not that bad either.
After walking, we ate! I was careful enough as not to eat alot. At the
back of my mind, it was always.. after exercise you eat... not a good
habit.
Then I decided to walk to Interchange to take bus number 27 home.
I walked with Ernie. I did not feel tired because I had company.
Now, I don't feel like doing anything but sleep. After I wake up, I will mark
some books! What a thing to do on a Saturday!
I am going to sleep now. Will write again if I have the time tomorrow.
