Blasting Coldplay's songs in the room. 'I don't want to follow Death and all of his friends... ...'
It's a public holiday morning. Of what, I do not know. So, with no other plans in mind, I went jogging. Covered greater distance in shorter time today. =) Of course, the distance wasn't THAT great and the endurance wasn't that much yet, but I'm happy as long as there is improvement.
Great morning, as it forever will be. Lazed around in the bed for quite a while, finally woke up a little before eight (planned to be out by 730am). A little after eight, with my favourite khaki PDI cap (the one and only actually, for four years+, already), I was out of the gate, breathing in the fresh air. I always started off my jogging with brisk walking and deep breaths, and always skipped the stretching. I know it's bad, but well, who cares (torn ligament is not that likely in my case. Until then... ...). I did't have music to go along with, but I had quite some pleasant melody to enjoy. The dogs barked when I jogged pass their houses. Saw quite a few lovely dogs: Golden, Dalmation, Labrador, those tiny toy dogs and a lovely silky terrier who trotted along his/her master with the shiny long hair swinging with every little step. I'm missing Twinkle and Yankee. Saw a Sunway nurse in uniform getting in/out (I do not know) of her front door. Looked at her for a few extra seconds. Nope, not someone that I know. Saw a beer-belly-middle-age guy watering the plants; two women of neighbouring houses cleaning up the car porches, not talking to each other at all; houses for lease, houses for sale; fallen leaves and flowers; the neighbourhood guards from a distance; some other joggers; a young guy getting into his Nissan; a group of middle-aged women doing stretching in the futsal court; kids playing basketball; a mom (I guess) with her daughter playing the swing; a lovely little girl on her tiny tricycle calling out to her grandpa who walked in front of her when she couldn't get over the bump; feeling the burning sensation of my muscles, the trickling beads of sweat along my jaw. Great morning, like I said.
Drinking soya milk, and its now 'Life in Technicolor'.
I miss swimming too. Anyone?

Haha Ra you know what? I think I have like five of their albums, but I haven't listened to all of them yet. Yea great music I do agree. Knew them through the soundtrack for Twilight, Super Massive Black Hole. Well, I actually heard their songs before that, but you know, it just never registered. =)

No special feeling towards Christina's voice actually, but her voice is nice. Powerful.
