Char

Celebrated Char's 23rd Birthday a day in advance on the 28th. She always calls it her mid of mid twenties. Yeah whatever, you are still only 1 yr and 1 month and 7 days younger than me so I can call you old very soon! MUAHAHA

First stop, 麺屋しんちゃん拉麺(menya shinchan ramen).


The birthday girl was in a joyous mood!
 

So were the rest! (except me cuz i got no photo ): )


Then the food came! 5 no. 30's and 1 I forgot the number.

Their specialty. However, I forgot what this dish is called cuz unfortunately, other than the excessive bean sprouts and veggies, there aint anything about the dish worth remembering. A far cry compared to what I had in Japan.

AND the other dish. *Char please tell me what its called!**She said it's called Spicy Pork Bone Ramen*

いただきます!(itadakimasu - Thank you/I accept, usually said before starting to drink or eat)

Look at those hungry eyes!

This is much better.

One of her more glam shots.
If only I still had THAT shot.

First Group Shot for the night.

While deciding where to go next. Why not smile and pose for the portraitist-in-training?


Of course the birthday girl gets exclusive coverage.

After a not so desirable movie session, 5/6 of us needed some if not lots of fresh air.
No prizes for guessing who was the 1/6 who didnt.

3rd destination for the night, Keppel Island.

TCC...

*DRUMROLLS*

Tada!!

(should have taken the candle out first before snapping)


and what comes next?? photos with the birthday girl of course!

And as usual,


Final group shot for the night. (No flash allowed in TCC -,-'")

Random shots:
This is what I get for ordering the cake =(

Whats wrong with matt's face?

Final Destination: Marina Barrage.

And edwin has finally mastered the art of sitting upside down a ceiling.

Last but not least, Happy 23rd Char!!


Finally I am done.
*heaves a sigh of relief*

The good news,
I am famous cuz everyone saw what I did during the 3rd route of the men's open qualifying.
The bad news, 
I pulled my tendon again. Ouch!
Ok actually I didnt really pull it "again". 
The fact is that it never really did heal completely.
But it feels like a fresh injury now.
It ached for 2 whole hours after the event.
I had to ice it.
Even when carrying plywood, I felt the strain.
So its physiotherapy again for me.
And total rest.
So the next time you see me climb, please do not hesitate to tear me away from the wall.
Lock me up in my room if you have to.

Remind

Remind me not to buy fruit juice from the YIH Fruits stall. 
Why?
Cuz it costs 10 cents more than the one at Techno Edge (Engine Canteen), the serving is smaller, and their blender seems to have a problem cuz the fruit aint mashed up properly.

Remind me not to take an afternoon nap without setting 5 alarms first.
Why? 
Cuz I freaking napped 3 hrs when I was supposed to nap only 1 hr, which led to 2 hrs gone down the drain.

Training on Thursday began on a rather cheerful note. My shoulder felt ok. 

Oh ya I forgot to mention what happened to it. 

Well, about a week and a half ago, I was testing a route intended for IM to be put up during last Monday's Projecting session. It involved a dyno diagonally to the right. I caught it with my right arm and though nothing bad happened, I could feel that the move was particularly strenuous on my right shoulder as I caught the tile with only my right hand. 

The following Saturday, my shoulder constanly gives that cracking, squeaking sound. Massaged it a lot when I got home. Starting doing weights to strengthen the muscles around it too. 

Everything seemed alright even during Thursday training. However, while I was doing boulder circuits, as I was attempting a route, I slipped of a foothold and caught a crimp at the same time. Hence, my shoulder took a sudden impact and I felt the pain immediately. The feeling was horrible. 

Damn.

It never rains but it pours.

Literally.

Rushed to the pool yesterday when I saw dark clouds gathering. I was so damn sure that it would rain in 30 mins time or so. (No I aint trying to predict the future again.) So I did my swim. 10 laps of the pool in ~15mins. 1 lap = 50m. I got up, changed and went to the gym to put up the routes for the projecting session. Bought Subway before going back to my room. 2 hrs later, the sky was clear! Never mind that. Went for tutorial and 1 hr later, I saw the sky ahead of me totally filled with dark clouds. I was happy actually, cuz rain would mean that the night would be cooling. 

Unfortunately it didnt, again.

And guess what? It poured today. Like all of a sudden.

And I am drenched.

It never rains but it pours.

4 months ago, I predicted that something will happen in the future and it really did happen yesterday. I didnt know when it would happen though but well, eventually it did. 

Maybe I can do this for a living.



Hmm.. Better not.


Competition dieting starts today!! 6 small meals a day. Nothing more, nothing less.

Time.

Less than 3 weeks to boulderactive. 

Am I prepared? Hell no. 

Guess this competition year is for me to see how far am I from the average open climber. 

I guess all that I can do during the 2 weeks of training is to maintain my current form, hopefully get a teeny weeny bit stronger and not deteriotate further. 

But what can I do with a bad shoulder and forearm tendons that never seem to recover.

Weak.
