\"Never<\/a><\/p>\n

4 January 2014 – Ventriloquism workshop at Bukit Merah Library<\/p>\n

6 January 2014 – Game programming for Windows & iPhone at the Central Library<\/p>\n

11 January 2014 – Run for Your Lives Asia<\/a><\/p>\n

15 February 2014 – Marina Run<\/a><\/p>\n

8 March 2014 – Venus Run<\/a><\/p>\n

27 April 2014 – Run350<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That’s what I’ve already registered myself to while the early bird offer is on for Marina Run and Run350, plus the Venus Run I managed to get a discount by registering with pals.<\/p>\n

By the way, the programmes at the library I registered for are free and it’s more of first come, first served! There’s lots of cool workshops and you can check out the Go Library<\/a> events or Read Singapore’s workshops<\/a>. These ones are for January to March 2014<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I know the leather crafting workshop is totally full for the first run in January, heh.<\/p>\n

But ok, it looks like I’ve got myself into a run a month until April. They’re all very short runs, 5km only and I’ve been lost or going around in circles before for that amount of distance.<\/p>\n

The longest run I’ve signed up for is Run 350 and that’ll be for 10km.<\/p>\n

I’ve joined the Marina Run’s fun run because you get to play with water pistols, Run for Your Lives Asia for obvious obstacles, Venus run so I can run with my gal pals and lastly Run 350 because well, it was NTUC’s run and kinda cheap and is the ‘last’ run from this list so maybe I can do 10km by then?<\/p>\n

It’ll be interesting if I can do a run a month for 2014 but then, probably not for June since fasting month is then.<\/p>\n

I don’t really want to run run<\/em> for long distances, I prefer the fun types where you do other things too.<\/p>\n

So I’ve kinda plotted what I want to do for 2014. Did you know Singapore Writers Festival<\/a> theme then would be The Prospect of Beauty<\/em>?<\/p>\n

I aim to be in it and to do a book (WIP TITLE) Belles of the Ball.<\/p>\n

Only that I’d probably get it printed myself and only open to pre-orders.<\/p>\n

It’s not an ordinary book.<\/p>\n

It’ll be a game<\/em> book.<\/p>\n

Choose your own adventure! We’ll see how it goes.<\/p>\n

\"At<\/a><\/p>\n

So how was 2013? It’s been cool. I got to go to IKEA and eat meatballs. I know, I know.<\/p>\n

I usually don’t actually go to IKEA so this was the first of the year for me to actually eating the meatballs there.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Bye<\/a><\/p>\n

However places like Tong Seng and Anatolia closed. \ud83d\ude41 I am sad for that. If any of the shopkeepers or stall owners for Tong Seng opens at any place, tell me.<\/p>\n

As for Anatolia, if anyone knows where they are (hopefully) reopening, tell me too. I really, really<\/em> miss their style of rice pudding and lahmachun.<\/p>\n

\"They're<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course the year wasn’t just all about food. That would be silly. I did continue my training. Training for hotness<\/em>.<\/p>\n

And ok, I actually do want to be able to do pullups.<\/p>\n

I STILL cannot do pullups. I can just hang there or monkey bars but not pullups.<\/p>\n

\"It's<\/a><\/p>\n

I got into competitions, didn’t win some, uh, win others<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I also got awarded by NLB for their Online Advocate Award which was cool since I received an upgrade for a year for my library membership.<\/p>\n

Met some lovely girls from Momento Mori and The 4 of Us II for N.Emation<\/a> (don’t forget to like their group on the facebook page).<\/p>\n

The ‘geek’ crew at various conventions and also at the little season premiere hosted by HBO Asia who were really cool themselves.<\/p>\n

The NLB people for Read! Singapore and helping us out for our own writery events. There are so many other people but if I did, this post will look like some spam list just know that you guys ARE in there, especially if you’re reading this. Also to those who I ate your food.<\/p>\n

Not like I went pillaging or something but for those who I got to try out your goodies and told you guys that it was awesome.<\/p>\n

Fandom, geekdom, gamers, cosplayers, cat people, photographers, blogger\/social media, the bookish, the school people, friends, family and the everything else.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s a heck lot of you and you guys made my 2013.<\/p>\n

\"Running<\/a><\/p>\n

I joined two races that were kinda near the end of the year. It wasn’t your regular runs but instead the Race the Dead<\/a> and the Commando Challenge<\/a> obstacle ones.<\/p>\n

Hence why I’m kind of enthusiastic for the ones I’m doing in 2014 because EXCITEMENT. I might get a hydration pack because the last one, Commando Challenge had a lack of water points (it was also written in by a LOT of people to the management about this after the event).<\/p>\n

A hydration pack would be a good back up for me while I go about running anyway or on random adventures. Slowly but surely, I’m building up my adventure gear\/wear\/pack.<\/p>\n

So there, that’s 2013.<\/p>\n

2014… Well, you can stick around and read what I’ll do or like my facebook at: http:\/\/facebook.com\/seriouslysarahSG<\/a><\/p>\n

Where I shall post about what stuff you guys CAN do too!<\/p>\n

If you’re expecting a post of my new year’s resolutions, HA HA, no.<\/p>\n

You won’t find that here in this post at least.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
