get ready for the race..

was in the train, when i read this piece of news in the today newspaper..and i was like whoaa..one of my fav reality shows!

and i was caught wandering if we could go for it together..

some reasons i could think of on why we could give it a try...

- i can read maps rather well..heheh really! many have told me that..i dont drive but i have been the map reader in road trips.

- hmmm..and i am rather resourceful. i think so lah..

- he being 6 feet tall has pretty commanding prescence..and can look real tau and fierce to scare people (not sure how this can be advantageous or useful).

- to make up for my rather weaker looking demeanour (actually i am not hokay..i was a judo-ka. a competitive one at that), i have pretty good stamina.

- he is methodical. i can read and decipher instructions very well. so in the event we get those type of challenges where we have to folow some manual to build a bike or fix a car engine or watever ..we can do it lah

- and we have proven that we can work rather well as a team in more than one adventures..remember we climbed a mountain, survived a wedding, and a home reno.

- we are not bitchy. we are nice people with moral values...cheh..heheheh


but i guess not.

some reasons i could think of...why we wont try for it.

- knowing how sly the editors are..i will definitely be potrayed as the whiny wife. him as the grouchy husband (he gets so if i disturb his sleep or have insufficient sleep)

- both of us have vertigo..from living on the lower floors of hdb flats and low rise buildings most of our lives, we will be real chicken about things like sky diving and bungee jumping.

- i cant swim. or rather can only swim if the water is shallow enough and my feet can touch the bottom. or if i get to don a life jacket.

- i cant drive. only he can.

- slim slim chance we get to have such long leave..

- and lastly but most importantly. i've already thrown the idea to him..but not even for a chance of winning a million bucks will he consider being on tv...and once he made up his mind, not easy to change it.
