godiva chocolixir. liquid ecstasy. like ambrosial nectar it warms you from within, filling your entire being with an incredible sensation that is intense yet subtle at the same time. all for the price of 8 bucks. a big sum? 8 bucks is but a small price to pay for what must be the equivalent of liquid gold. i didn't expect much at first but the first sip i took just blew me away. ok actually it didnt. it left me rooted to the spot, for the strong hit of flavour was just so incredible that i could only stand and appreciate the sheer beauty of it. and that's just from the milk choc version. still gotta try the dark choc ( at wai ling's recommendation) and the white choc with raspberry. looks like i gotta scrimp and save up another $16 haha
alright i'm sure some of y'all are shaking heads at such a sinful indulgence. believe me, i had a strong debate within my head about this:
hock: eh go try that thing leh...looks nice
daryl: no la, cannot
hock: why? you on diet issit? dun worry man, you exercise regularly and that's good. a little indulgence every now and then is quite alright.
daryl: no its not that... flash n splash has 30% off so i might need the cash, 8 bucks short could well deny me that cool reef shirt
hock: ...
well in the end i had my chocolixir and an adidas pool bouy too...the one i've been eyeing for like months haha.
ok now the indulgent side of me takes a backseat and the other side takes over. no, its not time for the handsome charming and smart guy yet, its the fit, fast and athletic sportsman (forgive the mild exaggeration =p) anyway, i'm loving running more and more. its an exercise in mental strength as much as it is phyical endurance. telling yourself that you can go on, that you're invincible and reallyreallyfast helps alot. and when you're on the road, its just you against the clock and you're hoping to be just that much faster than your previous time. and you do that by constant motion. don't stop don't slack and just keep moving. i think that could be my new motto haha.
note to self: never ever run after drinking chocolixir. its not fun :X
