Shiok

It is an awesome feeling after a run. The sweat, the aching muscles, the fast beat of your heart and not forgetting the breathlessness that makes you appreciate the wonderful feeling of being able to breathe. Wow.

It is a feeling i once enjoy during my NS days. But after ORD, well, the motivation is just not there. Temptations are everywhere, from Ben & Jerry's ice cream to KFC crispy chicken. Plus, you are too caught up with studies, friends and life as a whole that exercise became the last in your list of priorities.

But in order to prevent my body from growing sideways, i went for a run just now and boy, the feeling is wonderful. It may be a short run of 3km but it is enough for me to find back a little of that feeling i use to enjoy.

With my reservist coming up, i better find back the whole feeling before i kick the bucket during my 2 weeks in camp.
