7 3/4

Damn sad; I missed my IPPT silver by 1/4 pullups. Literally wtf. Somehow, gravity seemed to act against me just as my chin was about to touch the bar. I hung there for 15 seconds before my strength failed me. Arrrrghhhhhhh. I am poorer by $100. Damnit.


Surprisingly, I ran my 2.4 km comfortably at a very slow pace of 10min 50 seconds. Somehow, everybody else had the same mentality as me; they jogged slower than that timing. Guess that the morning exercises (that I forced myself to do) were of effect after all!


Will not be here for a long time. Shall be spending my time in a hot desert in a deserted part of Australia. Sadly, there will also be no desert rose in the middle of that scorching place. Meanwhile, Ginway should be halfway through the hell of the desert now. =(


Unrelated: After much tweaking on my wireless router (in addition to swearing), I succeeded in hosting a game of DoTA on Battlenet! Yeah! 2 hrs of configuring the damned firewall, router and watnots have not gone to waste.


Looking forward to my 10 1/2 days of leave after Wallaby. NUS applications should be open by then. Shall try again soon.
