What a Week!!!

Haiz... haven't been updating this blog recently, coz i've been insanely busy.. (and lazy to be honest.. haha)... but anyway, the past week has been full of activities and i've decided to let you all in on what's been goin' on so far in Tim's World....

Well last Sunday was the 5th straight weekend in the row i've gone blading... and if that doesn't put me in the Blade Addict category then i dunno what will. 3rd time i was using my own blades and i'm starting to get really used to it... so much so that i can go faster, smoother, turn better, and fall safer (yes more than once liao..) with these pair of K2s!!! During this blade session, we managed to round up quite a huge bunch of people to join us for an afternoon of relaxed blading!!

"Blading kakis!! (And 2 OOP cyclists....)"

Ok those on the left are obviously the bladers, but i managed to bump into Youxiang and Aiting too, and they followed us to Bedok Jetty just for this pic!! From the group though, i must stress that there was 2 people who were missing from the original Blade Bunch. David and his gf Mindy, who ran into some... erm.. ligament problems along the way.

While blading toward the Hawker Centre, and with all of us understandably focused on the Sugarcane Juice we couldn't wait to get our hands on, Mindy had a bad fall at a really steep slope which got us all worried. An initial worry that she dislocated her knee turned to laughter when she realised she could still bend her knees on her own, but it still felt weak and seemed to buckle everytime Mindy put her weight on the leg, and so we decided to play it safe and let David send her to the hospital.

It turns out now that she actually snapped her ligament that day, most probably from an initial dislocation before her knee popped back in place! She even went for surgery on Tuesday to have that part of her ligament removed. So much for laughing at her then.. hahaha... 2 weeks of MC for her then!!

We did make a trip down to Mindy's place today to see how she was doing and i must say it was great to see she was still as cheery and hyper as ever! Sure she was limping a little but it wasn't dampening her spirits one bit.. i suspect its the MC that did the trick though.... hee... We watched Singapore Idol at her place and bitched about PwC people.. the best way to spend an evening!! It made us really happy though to see that she enjoyed her evening, coz i'm pretty sure it's kinda boring when u can't really walk and u have to stay at home all day. Anyway, for being such a brave girl Mindy, all of us Salute You!!!! : )
