Bike & Swim (Tue)

sounds like biathalon hor? except that most are bike & run. or swim & run. haha. so i met zeke (found out he stays very near my place, like 3mins' cycle away. ok 5, including waiting at the traffic lights =p) and we biked to MIT to go to the pool there. harvard has its own but you need to pay for membership and it's US$75 per semester so not worthed it. according to zeke, it's about a 2mile distance. first time swimming in a long while. i cant even recall when i last hit the pool in sgp loh! so it was a 25m pool. only realised it like later into the session. zeke was trying to train up trapping water with his head above the water for 10mins. almost there but still a little more to go. he wanna do sailing as PE this sem so he'll need to take the swim test and trap water for 10mins. will help him achieve that.. =)

after the swim, showered. then we were adventurous enough to head to BU (boston university) which is like across the Charles River for dinner. @ super 88 food court (the asian supermarket i've been talking about). yummy! well, the portion was huge so i placed half one side - set aside for another meal. the cycle there took some time but it was windy by the river. there were these irritating small fly-like insects that flew into you as we cycled. poor zeke had one fly into his mouth and he swallowed it! he could feel it buzzing at the bottom of his throat! how uncomfy. thankfully i closed my eyes and mouth each time i cycled into a swarm. haha.. =p

went into the supermarket after dinner. i wanted to buy bubble tea but decided agst coz i didnt want to be spending too much money. =p also wanted to buy bao1 (steam buns) coz i had finished mine but decided to wait until keng's back next week to go grocery shopping again. heh. adventurous us decided to take another route (which was shorter if we wanted to head back directly to Harvard - we came from MIT) but we kinda got "lost". keng called at the right moment and i asked him to google map us and he told us the directions which brought us safely home! *beams. thanks love!*

wanna play tennis but zeke doesnt know how to nor have tennis racket/balls. we did think of playing badminton but his other racket is with hend.. so we agreed to go running. on the treadmill. haha. tmr it shall be that it's bike & run. tho i doubt it will be cycling such a long distance as today.. hee.
