time for exercise

This morning i got the fateful sms reminding me to book my ippt before my birthday... Sigh, i suppose i have been living in denial over the course of most of the past year, conveniently forgetting that ippt looms in the distant horizon... Well, obviously i can't do that anymore...

So in other words, that means that i have to start exercising again... Gosh the only exercise i have been doing over the past year since ORDing, apart from my failed attempts at trying other sports, has been sporadic cycling and swimming, the latter of which often degenerates into more of a sun tanning session... And i haven't run even 100m, let alone 2.4 km, since, well, i can't even remember. Well thankfully the rest of the ippt should be less taxing to train for, but then again i haven't done a chin-up in ages either...

Another thing i have to ponder about is when to book the date for, cos my birthday happens to conveniently fall right in the heat of the next exam period... Ideally, i want to book two tests, one right before my birthday, and the second right after, so that i can get this over and done with till i turn 23... Aiyah, but i know i will complain with no end over having to 'study' for ippt while studying for the nus exams at the same time...

But then again, i am thankful for the sms reminder, or i would still be in denial mode until it's too late, then i would fail the ippt and be forced to go for rt, which i certainly do not ever want to kena... So, in short, it's time to exercise...
