Bought a new hard disk last night. It’s the portable kind unlike the one I have at home which needs to be powered on from a socket. This one is the plug-and-play kind. 320gb ~139SGD. Just in time for the new season of TV shows. Time to move the old medias file to the new one to free some space.
Oh, I also started playing Star Wars The Force Unleashed in my PSP. It’s a Prince of Persia/God of War kind of game. Button smashing and killer combos. Graphics is teh suck though. TRS dudes said graphics is awesome in xbox360 and PS3… seems like they didn’t do a good job porting in PSP.

What’s up with the weather?!
Pen and I are both battling the flu and colds (albeit separately). I started feeling drowsy yesterday while Pen started the day before. We are both taking medications and somehow it is working for both of us.
We also have to remember to drown the flu with lots of water. More water intake, the better it is (more visits to the loo too).
Hopefully this virus will walk away in time for our busy weekend. I will be joining a street shoot tomorrow at Little India while Pen will be running the Sydney Bridge Run.

I am dusting off the joggers and pounding the pavement in the Blackmores Sydney Running Festival. At the same time I am aiming to raise money for charity and I would welcome any contribution, great or small, that you could make!

Hi all.
After the Twitter frenzy, Pen and I are now fans of Plurk! After Twitter pulled the plug on sending twitter updates via SMS, we felt no more connection with twitter. Then Pen found out this Plurk thingie. It’s a timeline twitter-like web application.
It also encourages conversation unlike one way announcement in Twitter.
Follow us on our Plurk profiles!

I grew tired of my cords lying on my floor. No matter how tidy I want them to be, they would just snake by themselves after a few days.
So in order to defeat them, I’ve thought of a wonderful idea, why not stick ‘em up on the wall?!
Grabbed a few blue tacks and a masking tape and voila! Instant ayos!

I started my Hundred Push ups Challenge this morning. The idea is, after 6 weeks of following the program, you will be able to do 100 consecutive push ups!
That’s a tall order for me. I can’t remember if I can even manage to make 50 during my CAT/ROTC years. So, if I follow this program diligently, hopefully I can do a hundred in six weeks time.
My pectoral muscles are hurting right now. Nabigla ata. But I did followed the program and did a ‘preliminary’ pushups last saturday. I was able to do “7-7-5-4-Max” sets this morning. Next Wednesday na uli ang Day2. Rest day tomorrow.

Sometimes I would tell Pen to ring me at around 6am to wake me up. She would ring my yahoo messenger, send me an sms and ring my phone insistently.
This morning, I was awaken by my phone ringing at 4am! She rang 6am Sydney time and not Singapore time. My eyes were half open scrounging where I left my cellphone last night. Then I saw her number registered in my phone. I sent an sms (half awake and a bit grumpy) telling her to wake me my 6am time and not hers. Then snoozed off to sleep again.
It was the first time that my personal alarm clock failed.
Nevertheless, I would still ask Pen to wake me up next time. Nothing beats seeing your loved one call you first thing in the morning.
