some good things have happened, amidst the gloomy week
the evening jog felt great as i listened to my fave 萧敬虅 album and reminiscence about the not-so-long-ago evening jog with the bf... as i didnt have the album in my ipod then, he was singing the songs out loud to me as he listened and jogged. it was hilarious :x but very sweet. the memories brought a smile to my face as i effortlessly jogged past the 2-click mark.
more good things have happened.
as i emerged from my 'daydream' to cross the traffic properly, i noticed a group of 4 guys jogging behind me. we stopped at the traffic junction to wait for the lights to change. the eldest of the group, uncle robert, said hello to me and invited me to join them in their regular jogs! he spoke like a wise old man telling me that jogging in a group raises morale and motivation. but goodness, they're running from woodlands to sembawang! i jogged alongside with them till my farthest planned u-turn spot and politely declined to continue with them for the rest of their run - they were accelerating, im pretty sure i could not keep up any longer than another 1 click. didnt want to hold them back. uncle robert left me his number and asked me to call if i wanted to join, they jog 4 times a week............ should i?
nontheless, the brief jog alongside the guys did keep me distracted from thoughts of stopping and giving up. i managed to do much more than i had planned for the day :D
no biggies, really. but such little things in life cheer me up..... makes me wonder -
theres just so much more things to life than work, aint it?
