Running man fever



Last Saturday I finally met up with my school friends who also stay here. It's been months since we last met. They were asking me to meet them and another friend somewhere back in June. But since I moved house in Feb, I was very lazy to go out to Orchard area. It was quite a distance to reach there, and it was a very crowded place especially during sale and holiday season. After that meeting, they wanted to go zoo and asked me to go with them. Again, I rejected them due to some other reason. After that, they labeled me as 'anti social', hahaha...... So this time, although I was still down with flu and a bit sore throat, I still went and met up with them.

A came a bit later, so S and I had a walk first. We browsed into an American label branded clothes called Abercombie - It was first time I heard it though... :P It was quite new shop, been there for few months? Anyway, it was our first time entering that shop. We were greeted by handsome and friendly guy after we stepped in. The shop was dark, only illuminated by dimmed yellow lights. Smell of strong perfume could be found in every corner of the shop. The price is very expensive too. A simple t-shirt costs SGD 66 and a simple sweater costs SGD170. Not our taste.. Although the material quality looks good and it feels so soft and smooth, it is made in China. And since it was so dark, my friend was even mistakenly talking with other people who was also wearing black shirt with short hair. She thought it was me. Hahaha... She felt so shamed when she knew it wasn't me...

Since there were still quite some time before A came, we sat down for a hot tea with milk. We chit chatted as there were many things to update. When time's up, we went to other building to meet A. We had our dinner at Cineleisure. I chose Soto Ayam, Indonesian chicken soup as I didn't want to eat spicy food, but I didn't know that the seller put the chili on the soup without asking me in advance and at the end, I still ate spicy food. Haiya......... My other two friends were having green chili smashed chicken. I told them I wouldn't choose that because my Aunt would also bring the original one from my hometown the day after that.. Hehehehe.....

After dinner, we moved to another place. We sat at a coffee shop called Old Town White Coffee, also at the same building. We chit chatted there and enjoyed our drink. I had hot honey lemon, suitable for my sore throat, while the other two were having lemon and blackberry frozen yoghurt. A mentioned my plan to go to South Korea next year, but I told them it's not confirmed yet as I was still waiting for another friend confirmation. Both of them had been there before so they were telling me on what was nice, where to eat the best Korean food, what was cheap to shop, etc.

RUNNING MAN


After that S told us, before you go Korea, you's better watch a show, called Running Man. It's a variety show, much better than Amazing Race, Jacky Go Go Go and others. S explained more about it. It was not a new show as it started since year 2010. S suggested us to watch the first few episodes in order, so that we could understand how the games were played and sometimes there would be connection from the previous episode. The show was participated by Korean famous MCs, singers, actors, etc. Although you didn't know anything about them before, as you watch few episodes, you'd become familiar with them. Choose the one with English subtitle, otherwise you wouldn't be able to understand the whole games were about.

One episode after another, it was sooooo.... funny, hillarious, and entertaining!!! I couldn't control myself. I was just laughing, laughing and laughing, especially the moment where they pour the coffee, sugar, egg yolk, etc and when they threw the dice on the floor to determine how many egg yolk or how many lemon to be poured inside their cup... Hahahahaha.....

My son watched the first episode in his school on Monday. His teacher played the show for them to watch. Later on, he was addicted into it as well. Soon, both of us can watch it together.. Hahahaha....

Yesterday was Deepavali and we had off for one day. In the afternoon, 3 of us went out to Tampines. I hadn't been there since we moved house and we browsed around the 3 shopping mall within few hours... So tiring... We had a cuppa of coffee at about 2.30pm. We went back home around 7pm. I watched one episode after that. Since my throat was dry after laughing, I decided to drink a cup of hot honey lemon in our house balcony, suitable for a cool after-raining day.

At 11pm, I tried to sleep. To my nightmare, I couldn't sleep at all. I tossed my body left and right, up and down, still couldn't fall asleep. It was 12.14am and I was still awake. It must be the effect of the caffeine that I took that afternoon, plus the honey lemon??? Alamak!!!

I decided to grab my ipad and watched it on my bed. I put the ear piece so I wouldn't disturb my sleeping hubby. I watched episode 14. As I said, when you watched it, you couldn't control yourself to laugh!! I was laughing, giggling, and shook my body along, until my hubby got irritated and told me not to watch and remind me that I'll have to work tomorrow morning. I continued watching but with silence giggling and laughing at heart... Hahahaa.... So difficult to control... But at least, no more complain, until this morning, he called me to share his irritation last night. Hahahahahaha......

I watched it until 2.15am and before sleeping, I prayed hard that I could wake up when alarm ring! I had less than 5 hours to sleep last night. Now, I am still quite awake, wah, the effect of the caffeine was really strong!!! Better remind myself not to drink coffee after 12pm, especially when next day I have to work.

In conclusion, if you want to see what type of show that made me crazy by laughing and giggling myself, you can watch it online on youtube. But not all episodes were shown there. There are other website that contains the whole episode. But slowly enjoy the show as it's now 120 episodes already... Hehehehe....

Gotta work now!! Enjoy your day!!! 2 more days to Friday!! :)

  1. Well I try to sneek peek the running man korean tv show. It is not a recommend to watch especially for big belly (pregnant woman who suffer hay fever like me).
    It hurts badly even after two days. My belly muscle is cramped till now. My stock of pantyliner is almost finish. I went back to the toddler when i cant resist the urine leaks.. it is too dangerous.. u laugh until you loss of breath.. and again, I have to prepare my ventolin next to me.
    And it is not good for people who have very limited internet access. because it is addictive..
