well, disappointment sets in as the team of 4 realized that they were not in the marathon due to the turn up of all 10 other teams. so this team received a consolation or rather a token of appreciation of free movie vouchers (2 each) instead for participating. as a result, instead of tired but endless 54 hours of staying awake marathon, the team were left with nothing to do for the weekend.

not withstanding the defeat, the team decided to catch a movie (using the free vouchers!) they watched Just my Luck. rather adapt, considering how unlucky they were. this was followed by the team (3 now, having 1 other team member gone back home) to another friend's house for a mahjong session. so the whole afternoon and part of the evening was spent mah-jong-ing. not a bad way to spend the afternoon afterall! thinking about how the other contestants were doing, and also predicting how we could have been doing, there's disappointment indeed.

dinner was sumptous, seafood at a nearby hawker. Afterwhich, 2 of the members, went for nite cycling recce. the meeting place was at East Coast park, and they met up with the rest of the committee there. was met with rain during the recce, but nevertheless the committee braved the rain (nah..they stayed at a shelter and talked instead) and also braved the puddles of water and drizzle and finally reached the end point, NTU.

after some debriefing, it was time to leave. by then it was already 4am. considering the time, a few of the committee people just hanged out at 1 guy's house talking rubbish and also trying vailently not to all asleep. it was also during this period that i wondered what it would have been like if the team got into the marathon. anyway, dawn arrives and the company went for breakfast buffet at delifrance. it was indeed a tired and hungry bunch as they ate the pastries and bread. some even dozed off!

so the plan was to go back home to sleep. but...some joker suggested going KTV. and the other joker agreed to go...and the other joker also had no objections, so off the 3 jokers went to KBOX! sang but they were tired. so after the session, they each went their ways. for me, i went home and after awhile, concussed. till now.

so that's how the friday and saturday went. how about tomorrow? how about next week?

only superman can save you!
