Lyn's birthday this year was simple yet, classy. the woman sends me an sms last night saying that the dress code was jeans and heels. when i read it i laughed. it was as if we were celebrating the queen's birthday, what with classy dress codes and such. hehe...but that thought was quickly switched to thoughts of what to wear :). well, i am but a girl, afterall.

We started of with lunch at this restaurant in SS18 called TJ Haus. I've been there before, so i recommended it. Rosie was astonished that such a place even existed, and within 5 minutes drive from her home too! it's a homey restaurant serving european delights. it's halal, so it's perfect! :) i think we all enjoyed our lunch thoroughly. :)We adjourned to 1 Utama, since i am sad enough to have not been into Forever 21. Well, so hasn't Lyn. so we decided to that it's about time we did. Well, i expected it to be pricey but somehow coming out empty handed still disappointed me. If at all, that place does sell everything! The sales weren't really on, and the heels were killing us so we took many breaks, licking up gelato ice creams and slurping up fruit juices. And of course, doing justice to our once in a blue moon classy attire. :)
Anyway, Lyn, i hope u had a great birthday! it was indeed fun! just, bear in mind the next birthday dress code has got to be sporty. :)

I'm all packed for Lumut. I think the whole idea of being an Individual Participant just dawned upon me. And as much as i hate to admit it, i am a bit afraid of the outcome of this. But i carry a never look back motto (or i try to) and for all it's worth, i am never looking back for this Powerman. The shirt's real cool, i got myself a brand new Powerbar bottle, they've even thrown in a handy wrist pouch (yes that black underwear looking thing is a wrist pouch) and a Powerbar. I even get a finisher T Shirt! I was reading the e-briefing notes they have on the site, and i was just soaking up all the perks of being an individual racer! seriously, i feel a lot grander now. even if i did have to fork out RM100 for the race. and probably another RM100 plus for the 2 nights' stay in Orient Star. But it's all good.

Mum and dad have given me the talk about personal responsibility and making the righ decisions and stuff. No, not sex related. It's about my first final paper which falls on the Monday after i come back. And like i told them, i signed up for the race knowing very well that i was up for an exam the next day. Knowing very well that this is a much longer distance than i have ever done in my life. Knowing very well the risks that i am taking. And i intend to complete that race and pass, if not score, all my papers.

well, i'm Power Juic'd! Books. Bikes. Notes. Shoes...bring it on...
