Here's my eventful Saturday. I slacked the first half of the day and then decided to go swimming at 4pm. So i packed everything into a shoe bag and mounted it to my foldable bike and vrooom off i went ! I went to the junction near petrol station, then cut my way through to the MRT track line of roads. Rode down the stretch along the MRT line to chinese garden, did a little detour into the running/biking track in the garden and got back on track to Jurong East Sports Complex. There are several familiar faces in the lap pool. First was the quite plump swimming coach who's always at that side of the pool. I'm amazed how the little kids can swim so far. I did my best distance yet last afternoon, 4 laps of frog style. I did a few more single laps and a double lap.
Then there was this girl I saw the previous time I came. She's super tanned, reminds me of Fangyi from tanglin haha... Actually there were 2 of the girls swimming together who were super tanned, I couldn't recognise which was the one I encountered last time. But I know its one of them lol...Coz she was swimming freestyle in the middle lanes super fast. Hmmm i think I like extra tanned girls. Maybe because they're tanned=healthy to me.
Don't worry. For all the untanned girls out there, I'm alright with it! :)
After the swim, ate my dinner at that KFC :( the chick chop was weird, soggy i think. Fact: I always get a bout of flu after the swim. Each time I try freestyle, water gets into my nose and mess up everything. But i still want to try and learn myself ! I learned swimming on my own with the help of some die-hard friends.
I biked into Chinese Garden again because I've never set foot on the jogging trail before! Went back to JP and I was riding behind a group of biking indians. I met my 2nd aunt at the junction as she was walking home from work.
I bought 2 books. Vincent Ng's Ten and Dan Brown's Angels and Demons. That makes my full collection of his books!
I'll stop here. PHew...One great sunday morning spent on typing this entry. Good life huh.

I've just read The Sunday Times and came across an interesting investment article. It's about a forex trading, which means trading in the currency market. It looked pretty lucrative so i went to the author's website and had a look. Okay basically there's only 1 thing I want to bring out from that website.
Have you heard of the 80/20 rule? The 80/20 rule, also known as Pareto's Principle or law of the 'trivial many (80%) and the critical few (20%)', was named after Vilfredo Pareto, an Italian economist and political sociologist who lived from 1848 to 1923.
This rule states that in many aspects of business and life, 80% of the potential value can be achieved from just 20% of the effort, and that one can spend the remaining 80% of effort for relatively little return.
Don't simply try to do more. Just do more of the right things.
Yeah, so for students, if your big dream if is to finish that entire TYS on your table, then you're wasting your precious youthful times :P

This...my room. The study desk is stuffed at the corner of the room. Very warm there. Air-con is a must when i study! The keyboard...hmmm is 2 octaves shorter than the actual piano length. So frustrating at times when i practise the FF pieces. To Zanarkand- the notes on my kboard not low enough. Melodies of Life- not low and high enough ! But I've managed about 70% of zanarkand and only first 3 staves of melodies of life. Need a upright piano!

7 bean plants I cultivated from green beans. My sis's earlier batch died after getting too much dose of nutrients lolx... My longest sprout is at 25cm! Actually now there are 6 of them in healthy condition, but the 7th one had its 2 leaves dried and shed but the stem is still very green! A zombie plant? I'll water them twice in a day, once before i leave house in the morning and then after I get home. Hahahaa nothing to blog...making this like a primary school science report... :P
