Chelsea 2 Liverpool 0
I watched the Liverpool match from 11pm to 1am only to be disappointed by the outcome. It was 2-0 in favour of Chelsea. Liverpool played okay but lacked the cutting edge in front of goal. This reminds me of a few weeks back when I played soccer at Balastier. I scored the opening goal but after that I had a rather uneventful night mostly going in for the tackle but only for them to get past me. I was told to just mark and pressure the person but I only fulfilled my role at times. I did manage to set up a few goals as well which was good. Overall I'll say I was just happy for some exercise. Speaking of which, last Monday, about 9 of us cycled from East Coast Macdonalds to Changi village and back. It was organised by Terrence. Some of them cycled from Changi to East Coast and back instead. This is as Changi bike rental is much cheaper. It was 7 dollars for an hour + 1 hour free for very hour u rent at East Coast. However, it costs only $5 for an hour + 1 hour free for every hour u rent.(if i rmb correctly) Additionally u only have to pay for 5 hours meaning 15 dollars if u want to rent it for the whole day. That is really much cheaper then the 21 dollars paid for the 6 hours of our cycling trip. We covered a total of 38km in 3 hours plus for me which was slow. I got to try the bike Shawn rented which supposed to have cost $400. That bike is way better then mine as mine costs about 100 odd. I had a much better time cycling on the way back after we exchanged bikes much thanks to Shawn. Oh yea I've got to train up my muscle for pull ups for NS which I should have done during the holidays. Ahh really lots of things to do actually if I just do them all.

The last 3 days
Haven't posted for a week so I'll post the last three days.
Sunday
Its my mum's turn in the family gathering. So my relatives are coming over at night for dinner and fellowship,etc. Had lots of housework to do then to put our house in order. Mopped the floors,washed dishes,cleaned windows, fold clothes, cleaned chairs(stools), scrub toilet floors, washed outside the house. That's was what i did for the day and the first relatives to come came at 6 plus. Helped out with last min cleaning up and baking. Had my dinner. After that played the board game, The Game of Life. 4 of us played. It was really fun not to mention that i have not played boardgames for ages. The added fun was that i won. Anyway its just a game, even if i did not win it'll still be enjoyable having fun with my cousins. Wished them goodbye and then did the clearing up.
Monday
Went to Sim Lim square and Funan with Frank. Covered all the floors that sold laptops. Didn't go all the shops though as some were repetitive(just gleaned thru them). I took home alot of brochures and even shortlisted about 5 laptops i would like to buy. I have a budget so its much easier to eliminate all the laptops that did not meet the criteria. Anyway i would like to thank Frank for helping me out in choosing my laptop plus the 4 hours plus spent there.
Tuesday
Met my friend at around nine and went to the stadium with him. That was to do exercise. First i jogged 2.4 km then i had an attempt on holding on the pullup bar for as long as i could and it was cumulative meaning i had to hold on for a total of 3 min. Had lots of trouble and even got 4 blisters on my hand after only 1 and a half min. Went to do the other exercises such as leg raises,jumping jacks and crunches. Later i still attempted the pull up bar but could not make it cos of the blisters( was a bit of a crazy idea i think). So i did another exercise to replace it. Total exercise time inclusive of rests was 1 and a half hour but i spent alot of time on the pullup bar. I'll say the months of neglect of exercise have shown. Well the blisters hurt whenever i touch water but i still go about doing my daily activities just endure the pain( pain but not that intense). So quite pain still. I have not done the dishes since although i attempted it but couldn't carry it out cos was like ouch! I got to rmb to my other exercises this week.
