Met up with Meifang, Huida and Youboon at Kallang. The sports museum was closed when we were there, but...

Nice 16.5km Jog this evening

Me jogs around my usual Tanglin route this evening with leftover birthday cake still jumping in my stomach, the feeling is very unreal, not to mention the rather mixed taste of blackforest-chum-gastric juices when you bleach... ekkk Shouldn't eat less than 1 hour before my runs... Mmmm, read in the Straits Times today that the HDB blocks around my district has...

My Nod-dified phone, Tanglin Running route

After going through about half of the GDI campaign, C&C 3 is nice to play with a very low learning curve in reference to the old C&C Tiberium related wars series. The SAGE engine is really kinda cool with lots of new eye candies. SAGE is not new to those especially when it first appeared in Emperor of Dune...

Mizuno Mount Faber Run 2007

An up and coming event. If you love hill work this event is for you! The highlight of the race is a mid way climb up the hill itself and down all the way thereafter. Registered today (Bib No 1577) and for $10 it's a steal considering you get goodies and a dry-fit Mizuno Tee to go too. My...

Reached Maju Camp with an overcast sky and strong winds, even the sound of distant thunder prompted cheers among the RPs (who are seemingly delighted with...

Electronic IPPT scoring system walkthrough

Had my first Electronic IPPT today. Amazingly for a whole group of 50-100 candidates, only 3-4 PTIs are needed to take them all, with one watching each station at every go. This is so unlike the IPPTs I've conducted before during my active days. The thing now is that you need not take the stations in sequence - I...

My First NS IPPT, then CAT1…

But the system is quote idiot proof for anyone but noticeably there are quite a few areas of possible exploitation of the system, not something that I would do while not under the watchful eye of the PTI, but something noticeable after studying...
