I am writing in a rather disgusted frame of mind, having just returned from a run that turned awry. I really needed the post-buffet run, but barely into my first 2 klic it started to Cat 1. I don't know how but the dark clouds just crept from behind and caught me unawares, because the weather seemed perfectly fine when I started! But I couldn't care less and went on for a further few km but the drizzle got heavier and more intense until I felt something was coming. So I relented, made a U-turn and started sprinting. Thankfully, I made it back just before the rain came down in torrents.

And just for fun, I went to streetdirectory.com to check out the route.


On an irrelevant note, this is what kept me from blogging the past week.


I wonder how many of you played this game 10 years ago. Yes, it's still the same 金庸群侠传 that runs on Win95 and a 133Mhz Processor, but the hackers managed to overhaul it and came up with a revised edition featuring brand new characters, a completely different storyline and an interesting array of "martial arts" that can be picked up. Which is cool, except that the opponents are a tad too tough to beat and it's taking up too much of my time, so after a grand four days of endeavour, I gave up. It was fun while it lasted though.

On another irrelevant note, 张震岳's "路口" is so nice I can't stop playing it on KKBox.
