Adizero CS

Spend, spend and spend. I have been buying a lot of things recently. From T-shirts to DVDR to new shoes. Luckily Im working now, if not I don't know where the money will come from. The most recent thing I bought: a pair of Adizero CS running shoes. It's red and white and looks great. Lionel borrowed an Adidas VIP card from his friend and we went down to the Adidas Store and Vivocity after work yesterday to check out the shoes. The pair that I chose was originally $162, but it was on sale and there was 30% off. Using the VIP card, I was entitled to another 30% off the discounted price which makes it 0.7*(0.7 * $162) = $79! That's a good bargain in my opinion, the price I paid is only 49% of the original price. I really have to thank Lionel for that. He himself bought another pair of black Adizero which is the same as what Mun Wai is wearing. I wanted to buy a pair of soccer boots as well but the smallest size is UK 7.5 while mine is UK 6.5 (Yes, I know I have small feet). I tried the kid's size and the largest size was UK 5. So where does that leave people like me with feet size between UK 5 and UK 7.5? Or are males not supposed to have that kind of feet size? :(

Reached home around 8 and had dinner. My mum went out to do her newspaper job and left me with a super big bowl of pork porridge. I struggled to finish everything and felt so full after that. Usually I wouldn't have finished it but recently I felt that I've lost weight. Even my friends who play soccer with me told me that. Did I really lose weight? But why? There wasn't any changes in my lifestyle. And Im also not under any stress. That's puzzling....

Choosing to finish all the porridge was a bad decision. I couldn't sleep well at night because I was too full. I went to sleep at 10.30pm but woke up again at 11.30pm because my stomach felt uncomfortable. Tried to sleep again but was kept awake by some dog's howling from the opposite block. I hope that the dog is not being abused, because its howling sounded pathetic. But I have no idea which unit the sound came from. If someone was really abusing the dog, I wish that person a horrible death.

That's not all. After some time, the air-conditioner compressor (Im not sure if that's what it's called but it's the thing outside the window) from the unit above mine started to make a lot of noise. Im sure the thing needs servicing but the asshole of a neighbour just can't be bothered to do it. That is not the first time it has happened and the sound was damn loud. If there's one thing I really hate, it is to have my sleep disturbed. I feel like going up to slap that idiot who lives above me, stupid inconsiderate fool. But in the end I didn't and instead, tried to go back to sleep. The noise faded off and just when I thought that was it, it happened again. Arrgggghhhh.........

Eventually, I only got to sleep at about 3am and I woke up today at 7.05am. The alarm didn't sound, I just woke up naturally because Im used to waking up at that time. I had set the alarm at 8am. Ok, now that Im awake 1 hour early, do I
1) Go back to sleep?
2) Go and run?

Option 2 was chosen. I put on my running shoes (not the new pair) and off I went, approximately 5.6km around the neighbourhood. Reached home at 8am, washed up and left for work around 8.30am. Im quite late today but when I reached the office, Im still one of the first few. Haha. I wonder if I can survive the day with less than half the amount of sleep I get from a typical day. Hopefully I can, but today's going to be a long day because we're going to KTV after work! :)
