The Ujian, the Incident (Part 1)

I have to let this thing off my chest. It has been inside for far too long already. Been trying to find time but as usual, the urge to blog or write something always come at the time when I have other and more important things to do. But at the same time, I feel that I could not blog on other things until and unless I pour this thing out in the open. **************** What would you do if suddenly you heard you wife screamed her lungs out at 6.10 in the morning? And when you rushed out of the washroom, there was an intruder pointing a twelve inches knife to your wife who was clinching your 7 months old baby in fear? Just like a scene in a movie, only that it was not. **************** 1st July 2006 The excitement of Football Mad Nation died prematurely in the morning of 1st July 2006.

So what happened last Sunday the 28th? The run went out well I would say. I wish I could have put up an entry much earlier; but I was caught up in terrible deadlines in the last few days. Let the pictures do the talking. The participants were asked to collect their Race Pack on Friday and Saturday. I went to collect it on Friday (26th June) itself since I would be sending my niece to UiTM on Saturday. There were long lines divided into each race category. The lady with a tattoo on her arm was in the queue next to my line. Hope to see her again during the race. :) This is the Race Pack. It contains the running bib and another smaller bib to be attached to the bag on race day. There's a complimentary event T-Shirt inside.
