my second race! and the first race which i ran for almost the whole of 10k! and i ended up with wobbly legs and an area on my left knee which ached like mad throughout the run. think my left knee gonna cui soon, cuz xinying said i'm having runner's knee. ):

before the race was nua-ing in yihao's room after odac bbq (which i didn't go. zzz) with phy claire eirene alvin jac ella kerhan jingchu. played funny games like minimizer and huat 99. i was totally distracted by kerhan's wii because he has raving rabbids! uber retarded. :D went back to hall at 3plus after sending eirene to hall8 to pick up my handphone charger. disturbed wilmond with phy saying wilmond's name in a funny tone outside his room and we ran away. wilmond thought it was xueshen who did it, because when we went back to the stretch of rooms wilmond was going into xueshen's room. turned out that xueshen and phy used to be project partners! hah. and xueshen + jason were singing high school musical songs in xueshen's room. LOL.

just as i was feeling lucky from not tio-ing any tequila pop, i lost in a game of raving rabbids and i drank a uber strong tequila mixer. my stomach felt like burning and i started feeling dizzy. yihao suggested to go out for a walk to clear my head, as well as accompany jac back to her hall. and so we did. but i was feeling so dizzy that yihao hafta like kinda hold me so that i wouldn't bang into any pillars along the way. cui-ed. and that was abt 4am in the morning.

after going back went to nua on the bed and napped abit. thankfully the dizziness went away when i woke up at 5plus and we got ready to go! cabbed to singapore flyer with claire ella jingchu. met alot of odac-ers and hall9ers!

the run was okay, and the scenery was not bad. i was quite satisfied with myself for not stopping so much throughout the run. :D but i was damn nua on my way back to hall with ella.

now gonna go pack my stuff and then go home! yay.

i'm struggling with my emotions, but i'm sure i will be able to control them eventually.

Runner's knee

Definition: A softening or wearing away and cracking of the cartilage under the kneecap, resulting in pain and inflammation. The cartilage becomes like sandpaper because the kneecap is not riding smoothly over the knee.

Symptoms:
Pain beneath or on the sides of the kneecap crepitus (grinding noise), as the rough cartilage rubs against cartilage when the knee is flexed.
Pain is most severe after hill running
Swelling of the knee

Causes:
overpronation (feet rotate too far inward on impact) - can cause the kneecap to twist sideways fatigued or weak quadriceps muscle. The quadriceps muscle assists in the proper tracking of the kneecap.
Weakness, especially of the inside part of the quadriceps, can prevent the kneecap from tracking smoothly muscle imbalance - between weak quadricepsand tight hamstring and iliotibial band (ITB)
Muscles can also affect proper tracking hill running (especially down hills) and running on cambered surfaces
Incorrect or worn shoes
Overtraining

ohmyKNEE.

my left knee had felt fine when i made my way to amk to get some stuff (and met yuzheng adi shingyi arthur. it was fun chatting with those guys as they tried to be lame and stuff. haha. they mentioned seeing qingliang arnd the area but too bad i didnt see him) and then home. but somehow now my knee is aching like mad. there is pain also at the bottom left side (initially was just at top right) pain pain. ):

in the website it also mentioned to stop running as self-treatment. does that mean i can't go for training this coming week? i wanna go hockey netball softball training! )))):

oh yes my parents bought SOOOOOOOOOOOO many masks from thefaceshop in korea that i can use until 2011 (or even 2012) if i use the masks once per week. and that's on top of the washoff masks i've asked them to get for me from skinfood. and then there's the skincare products from skinfood! wooo i have more than enough cleansers until next year! :D
