it was three years ago when this jogging issue happened..i dunno if my friends could still remember it.. way back summer 2006, during one ordinary day of april, my comrades and i (the y0c'mon to be specific) planned on a scheduled jogging activity. we we're to bring the bikes, skateboard and basketball to fully equip our "physical activity". but unfortunately, the wimpy one (that's me) was forbidden to go out on the said day. well, being a very optimistic and stubborn 'little kid', i did not lose hope. i did not inform my mates that i wasn't permitted so that they would still come knocking at our gate in the wee hours the next day. at 4am on the said day, i was awake already (getting things done, hoping that if my folks would see me being responsible of waking up early, they's let me go). i was almost done when Papa woke up and told me not to bother getting ready anymore 'coz i won't be going anywhere. i got what he meant, i'll leave and get grounded or i'll stay and could still hang with my buddies in the afternoon. of course i chose the latter. i immediately ringed my friends not to bother going at my house anymore 'coz i won't be going. they insisted of asking permission from my folks, but i refused. i already made a choice. though they didn't want to go without me, they still pursued the plan ( and don't want to ruin it anyway, so i said just enjoy and we'll still be able to catch up). right then, i went back to bed (but wasn't able to go to sleep until breakfast was ready).
what happened to me this time was somewhat similar to that three years ago. it is about a jogging activity (again). this time, with my 'little' cousins who've grown much much bigger than i am. i was suppose to went jogging with a bunch of sportees--a basketball player, taekwondo player, badminton player, etc. but i, being a 'wimpy' one, wasn't alone either. i have with me a my fellow sleeper and lazy walker. but despite of my effort being the one to 'organize' the plan, i was still not permitted, AGAIN. (poor lil sister, she won't be able to go out with me, she might have wished then i wasn't home home 'coz perhaps he might have been allowed..=P). Papa thought that my sis and i were 'brainwashed' by our beloved 'healthy and fit' cousins to join them. he sermoned me again about me being sickly (does he always have to remind me about that? oh well, Papa just cares for me so badly). and so the same choice i made three years ago. thus, the plan was postponed (they can re-schedule anytime they want anyway). yet, another jogging activity was initiated by Papa. the four of us (Mama, Papa, Tin2 and I), went walking early in the morning at my aunt's house (which is so not far away), played with the dogs and used the skipping rope and had a bountiful morning meal. isn't that nice?
after all of these, i did not regret those choices i've. well, yeah i did quite ponder those 'what ifs'..but i couldn't go back anymore. i have moved ahead and i'm glad that i did not have any bitter moments from my past 'physical activities'. Let's jog!
