Yes! I finally did it! I finally went to workout a little! No, i didn't run. But it was as good as running, i went cycling!
Cycled all the way to my classmate John's office, in Kallang! And...It was good! Haven't paddle so hard for sooo long! Well, we were suppose to meet-up to discuss our upcoming assignments and to do our(their) roleplay. Actually i thought i don't want to go, coz i've done my roleplay and i thought i could do better to write my essays on my own. Well, i already promised and yes, i want to take it as an excuse to finally do something about my lazy lifestyle, and boy am i glad i did!
Let's talk about my trip! It was nothing smooth-sailing...
We were suppose to meet at Kallang MRT station at 6.30pm, i suppose i should take less then an hour to reach there and after consulting my trusty street directory, i thought i figured out the best route to the station:
Hougang->Upper Serangoon->Paya Lebar->Macpherson Estate->Kallang!
So with that assumption and taking in consideration of any unexpected event (lucky i did), i decided to leave home at 5.30pm.
Boy could i be more wrong! It took me a goddamn 1hr to reach my destination! Not only did i figured out later that i took an EXTREMELY long route, i had to miss the Macpherson Estate junction (you must be thinking how on earth can someone miss a junction on a bike! but there really isn't one! and so much constructions!), ride all the way up to Paya Lebar MRT instead, traffic was horrendous, i risked my life to get to that destination, endless checking of my back to see if there were any giant lorries trailing me, battling countless vehicles, getting honked at for at least 6times, once by a bus and enduring merciless stares by pedestrian thinking what on earth is this idiot trying to do in this kind of traffic!
Then, Paya Lebar MRT! I'm near! 2 MRT stops shouldn't be too far, so i thought. I was wrong! It couldn't have being further.. There i was, desparately trying to follow the MRT track, and who built the stupid MRT track anyway, why can't it follow the main road!? I cut into the smaller roads just to try to follow the track, so as to not get lost. In, out, up, down, in, out, up, down. Staircases! Damn it. Up, down, up, down. Dead end. Crap... So, in the end, just head back to the main road and follow it. Oh, then, Kallang MRT is on the main road. =.=" Idiot.
So finally i reached. 6.30pm(Wow!). Legs tired. Mouth dried. Head spinning (most prob due to the lack of oxygen to my brain!). John was there! Have to wait for KC. Asked John, "So where's your office?" "Oh, that's easy, see the junction there? Go right, and go all the way until you see the 1st 7-11, very near." Great, near was what i need.
What near? Boy, what was his definition of near man? =.=" I can take a 2.4km test with that distance! Ok...Maybe i exagerated, but that was not MY definition of near..
Was glad that we finally reached! Hey, the dinner was rather worth the trip actually! Was it because i was famished?
Then we went on to his office to do the roleplay, must mention, John is a freaking good actor, he was roleplaying as this old lady for KC and it sounded so real, haha, John should go Mediacorp, why is he a youth worker?
Ok... now the "tui" part. John told me Bendemeer Road was very near his office. Why "tui"? Because: Bendemeer Road->Upper Serangoon->Hougang! (refer above for route i took to Kallang...) He led us to Bendemeer road, went for a little supper, and we went home.
It took me only 30min to reach back home, and i took 1hour to get there...
Anyway, my utimate aim was met! I did a great workout (would not have being better if i haven't go the wrong way!), covered at least 20km today. Going to do it again soon!
Now... Tired... Sleepy... Shagged... Haven't shower... Leg ache... i'm going to clean up and pop into bed.
Leave the worries for assignments till tommorrow~! (1.5x writings to go.)
Wonderful.
