It was our beloved nation's 43rd Birthday. Though we were not lucky enough to be part of the yearly mega celebration at Marina Bay, we still showed our patriotism to the country by dressing up in red and white but not without stares and comments from stuck up passers by. Come on! Its our country birthday!

Earlier in the day, the guys went beyond our limits and ran 43 rounds at Bishan stadium. Initial plan was to run 40 rounds. But since it was National Day we decided to make it meaningful and ran another extra 3 rounds, all for Singapore!





We ran and never looked back. . .

We spent the evening watching Love Guru and having coffee thereafter at The Cathay. The movie is truly slapstick, plenty of jokes on a certain part of the human anatomy. Mariska Hargitay~











Guru Pitka says, "Learn to love yourself and you will love others." So we decided to share our love and concern by doing Jenn's favourite activity - Gift Exchange. Rule of the game was to buy a gift worth $5. Food items was not allowed but Fadly was not informed. Too bad. .

Here's how it went:




*Hui Liang received Jef's "Herb Garden Rack"













*Fadly received Lynn's "Multi Coloured Pen"










*Jenn received Hui Liang's "Pink Bear Key Chain"










*Lynn received Fadly's "Jars of Sweets"

*Jef received Jenn's "Johnson's Baby Moisturizer + Shower Gel, Beetle Hand Massager and $0.15"

That night we noticed something too . . .



Hui Liang is always ready for the camera. .

We have signed up for this December's Singapore Standard Chartered 42km Marathon. Thanks to Jenn's sister for letting us charge to her card enabling us to save $9.75! (jenn: 'should be a saving of $10 as i collected $55 from each of you')

"$60 for 2 hours?"
