Went cycling today.. at about 6.40pm. Didn't cycle for about 2 weeks now, and my legs itched to.. well, cycle. I had this.. well, many 'spurts' of energy put together, and went off on highest gear, I daresay paddling like a maniac. Haha! When I get like this, be careful! I knoweth not the meaning of 'tired' when I have these energy filled times.

But of course.. to start my cycle around the neighbourhood.. I had to see a school teacher of mine. You know awkward it is when you see someone you don't know, yet you know she/he is from your school? Make that your teacher. She sees me walking home everyday too. She was walking around the park.. the one I enjoy just going round and round and round. But nooo.. with her there, I immediately made a change of plans and went down the road. Went for a mad cycle all the way up again.. on the way up, on the slope going upwards.. I encountered 2 big dogs, no doubt rejoicing to see a cycler they could chase. In my panic, I just paddled harder, straight onto a curb! Had to turn to my right almost immediately or end up dead (at the very least badly banged-up) in the drain. I must have cycled sooo fast the dogs lost me. Good thing too. I really thought I'm in for it now, going uphill too. I could imagine the dog sinking it's flesh into me.. *shudders*

My heart racing by now.. I can tell you, no race on earth can make my heart race so hard as when running away from a dog. Dogs, in this case.

Cycled 1 more round.. decided my nerves could take it no longer.. it's one thing to be chased by a dog on even ground, another when you're going up a slope, on highest gear too!

Went home, took about 5-10 minutes for my heart to stop racing.

Then I plunked myself in front of the com. My hand is just itching to pick up a fantasy book, but instinct tells me that would be a stupid thing to do. Well, when I'm done using the computer I've a feeling I will pick up another book, but that very well can't be helped, can it?

After reading the Da Vinci Code, I've moved up 1 level.. I need novels like that, really a page-turning thriller. Tis like money.. once you've got a taste of it, you can't settle for anything less. ooooh man. :-(

God bless
