midnight run to the shrine

i just had the most fantastic run ever in my life.
i was talking to sam during vip night and he asked me along for a midnight run just as nicky came over to tell sam that jon lee, joey and candice were joining them as well :)

we ran round one part of the botanical gardens.. or could have been the whole garden and the fresh spring night air was amazing! the view was excellent too - we were rather close to the yarra river.

tonight was also my first time to the shrine of remembrance. it looks amazingly majestic at night! there was a fire lit right in front of the shrine as well.

after the run, we just stood around the fire to cool down and do all sorts of other funny mini work-outs. if it wasn't cloudy, we'd have been counting stars too. :)

only reached home at about 3am cause the guys wanted to go eat, so candice and i watched. supper conversation was edifying. while joey looks like a quiet, unopiniated person, he's really got lots of stories and takes his stand on many things. good on him.

ok time to shower and sleep. almost 5am after talking to shirley and dong. gotta wake up early for house church meeting.
