:: sight-seeing ::

jogging is a great opportunity to sight-see, and you'll find all kinds of interesting quirky characters, fantastic bodies and frankly pple who u dunno what they're doing at the park. hmmm...

the business/stock/shares 'kakis'
everyday at 630pm, without fail, these two good friends (who so happen to look a lot like each other in physique) will take a brisk walk ard the park. round and round they go, never jogging but only walking and all the while yammering about business, stocks, and shares. u gotta admire them, it's NOT easy to brisk walk AND brisk talk at the same time...
today din see them, i think they took an off day, maybe both were at ndp yday? heh.

the strong ah-ma
wah, this ah-ma is not to be trifled with, fragile she might look, but when she runs, she's like the wind! whoa... and she also does a few rounds of backwards walking too... train up dunno which muscles... gastroc? hmmm... yea, i think she'll be able to catch any unfortunate thief who decides to rob her!

the infamous indian pair
not that i'm racist... but i really wonder how the two of them can walk soooo slowly in the park and spread themselves soooo widely that their combined girth takes up the entire path, forcing joggers and walkers alike to navigate amongst the grass, twigs and snails along the path. more interestingly, they take their walk in FULL, GLORIOUS saris and watnots... not hot meh? and when the wind comes, their saris can billow around them... yesh, very galadriel-like but also very hazardous for joggers who can get entangled in them!

one fat one thin
i normally see the thin one, today was the first time i saw the fat one. the first time i saw her, i couldn't make up my mind whether she was just fat around the waist or was she pregnant... hmmm... then i tot her legs din look too swollen nor her breasts too big... so... maybe just a fantastic collection of adipose tissue. i think the thin man is her husband. so cute those two. they started out walking hand in hand... aww... so sweet. then she'd be grumbling and her husband encouraging her... hehe... after two rounds, i saw them both again, at the bottom of that most-hated slope in the park... actually i was running opposite them... i saw her.. and then i wondered where the man was... until i passed them and saw that he was pushing her up the slope. heh. aw... so cute the two of them. what a supportive husband!
the hp-auntie
this one is a very interesting character. mostly i dun see pple running with their mobiles... this one can talk and brisk walk together, or sms and brisk walk at the same time, i'm waiting to see her talk and run at the same time.

one-armed ah-beng
he's not exactly one-armed, but i'm pretty sure he's got a right brachial plexus injury. that arm is all atrophied, the other arm is very very muscular. is this what they call compensational hypertrophy? heh. anyway, he's very heavily tattooed so though i was ogling at his arms, i din dare look too hard. later kena punched by the bigger one. apart from that, he runs with his left hand holding on to his right wrist. and i think the right arm's oscillatory motions are definitely another sign of lack of nervous innervation over there... i think he got it in some kind of motorbike accident?


BIKERS BEWARE!!!
it's not a matter of when you meet an accident, it's a matter of how severely you'll be injured! (becos you'll meet one sooner or later anyway)
