today i finally had wushu training, the last time was like 2 weeks ago i think. well just did some normal physical training at first. 2 weeks without training plus all tt eating in hk realli makes me feel how out of shape i am. The runnin part was realli exhausting, and my legs are so stiff tt my split seems to be getting lousier i think. anyway later we prepared for the orientation performance abit, n kelvin teached me abit of some broadsword taolu. it is quite cool, but onli if i can do if smooth n quick. well broadsword is quite zai if u can realli master it, smthin i obviously haven, despite 4 yrs of it at tchs wushu. i still haf a long way to go. anyway also worked abit on my jumps, and i realised my tornaedo kick n one-handed cartwheel are gettin pretty crappy. gotta work on them. wushu is fun, juz haf to be careful not to hurt myself.

anyway had lunch wif mum at Ah Yat seafood restaurant in turf city. the dim sum there quality also quite good. ate lyk 8 helpings of various dim sums and it onli came to about $20! yah cuz there was 50% discount. i guess there is good dim sum in singapore afer all, you juz need to know where to find it.

i was reading personal accounts of the sumatran earthquake+tsunami on bbc website, and it juz seems more and more depressing. the stories are so saddening i neary cried reading them. how more and more dead are washed ashore, how people saw their families swept away, how bodies piled up and that many of the dead were children. people in certain areas are starving, and disease is spreading due to the huge amount of rotting bodies. hope relief operations can proceed more swiftly. And again the death toll rises. with many still missing and probably dead, the death toll could well hit 40,000. sigh...
