Happiest day of my life.... no more....

2011-04-02T18:34:00.002+08:00

Today was suppose to be the happiest day of my life. We were suppose to hold our customary wedding today. But all that's not to be anymore. How things have changed. The turn of event is too much for the heart to take. Its heart wrenching to see how a marriage would end up like that. Its painful.... very painful...

Was that a good decision? Was that a right decision? Is there such things as good or right decision when it comes to matter of the heart? I really don't know. But I do know that things have happened. Things have changed. She made a decision, I accepeted it, and stuck to it.

I just hope that she will be happier without me... and that she can go fulfil the dreams of her life without me holding her back or suffocating her with my love.

Who am I?

2011-01-17T22:26:00.002+08:00

Sometimes, the events of life takes such a heavy toll on you that you somehow forget who you are... You are so busy and stressed out, trying to meet the demands of other people such that you totally lose yourself. You don't know who you are anymore. You don't know what you are doing anymore. Who are you? Who am I?

I really wish that life could be simpler. I can only wish.

It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secured, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power. ~ Alan Cohen ~

Stressed...

2010-04-21T14:51:00.000+08:00

This is getting more stressful than I thought. I'm learning how to
manage the demands from different important people in my life and the
learning curve is really steep... Can I manage? I really hope I can...

Hello?

06.02.2010

2010-03-18T00:19:00.000+08:00

Me and my lovely wife :)

06.02.2010

Things to look forward to...

2010-03-18T00:02:00.003+08:00

Life has been quite exciting since the beginning of the year. I got married with my lovely wife on 06.02.2010. Had a fun time planning for the Solemnisation Ceremony. We also bought our own HDB Flat! That was kinda unexpected because we were expecting to wait for the BTO due to some constraints. But with the right blessing, we managed to get our dream home sooner than expected. It is going to be a very fun and exciting year. There is the customary wedding to plan for, our pre-wedding photoshoot, collecting our house key and renovating it!

I must admit that it is kinda stressful for me because it is financially very tough to handle all these event at the same period. Work is piling up and baby is gonna have her exam soon, so there are really alot of things to worry about. Despite these, I think it is important to enjoy the process and stay on the positive side as this is a once in a life time experience.

I am really looking forward to collecting the keys to my new house and doing it up. It will not be a smooth journey and there will be obstacles and problems every now and then. But with the support of my wife, I am sure we can overcome all difficulties and obstacles. :)

Respect the Dead...

2009-10-02T00:12:00.002+08:00

Learn to respect the dead. Sometimes, the more you try to get rid of all things associated with them, the more they will come back for you. I am seriously pissed off with the way a certain someone handles my grandma, who passed away recently. Her actions seriously show how unfilial she can be. She has no respect for the dead. I seriously wonder how someone like her can sleep peacefully at night after doing all the bad things. I hope grandma gives her enough nightmares to scare the shit out of her every nights.

And I believe in retribution... your children are watching and that will be the exact same way they are gonna treat you when you die next time.

The forgotten blog...

2009-09-27T23:03:00.002+08:00

When was the last time I blog? I can hardly remember if not for the fact that the date is shown in the previous post. Been too busy to blog. Things happen too fast. Too much things to do with too little time. I'm no longer the happy student who has lots of time to spare. Its a cruel world out there and the fight for survival continues. No reason for this blog. I just feel like blogging and I don't think I need to give an explanation for that.

Talking about survival. I went for my JCC in Jun and finally got a badge on my chest. Going for the course really wasn't my plan. Some "good" friends said that we should all go together and we happily signed up for it..... I was the only one at the JCC Selection Test. And since I was already there, I decided that I might as well complete it and get a badge (I need one soon anyway... ).

That was the most painful course I've ever went through up to this point in life. 9 days of walking, walking and more walking in that crazy and merciless terrain, on only 2 days of ration and a fucking big field pack... its crazy. I don't think I should be going into the details. What's important is that I completed it and is proud to be wearing the badge now. Next up, maybe another one coming up? Only this time, it will definitely be less crazy.

* * * * * *

I have finished reading 2 of the most meaningful books I have read thus far. "Leadership and Self-Deception" and " The Anatomy of Peace"... I think anyone who wish to improve their life and improve their relationship with others should read these 2 books. I find them very useful and I felt that I learned alot from them. It allows me to handle certain situations better. I am able to think out of the box and approach a problem in a different and more workable manner. Highly recommended.

* * * * * *

Went for a Sydney holiday trip with baby in Aug. It was really my first proper holiday. 2 whole weeks of holiday... No need to think about work, just relax and enjoy. I enjoyed the trip alot! We went to Gold Coast too but did not managed to do much there, except going to the Movie World and Sea World. It would have been more fun if we have better financial capability cuz there were a lot of things I wanna try. Nvm... next time perhaps... :) Oh, and I miss Krespy Kreme soooo much now. Singapore donuts are really hopeless compared to Krespy Kreme. Where to next? I'm not too sure. But I am definitely looking forward to the next holiday!

"You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before, she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She's not perfect - you aren't either, and the two of you may never be perfect together. But if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there."

MRMC Closing Run

2009-01-02T01:35:00.007+08:00

As with all other years, MRMC will have a Closing Run at the end of the year. It is the last ride of the year and marks the closing of the events in the year. This time round, it is an overseas ride to Kukup Malaysia.

As usual, gathering at the Mac near the old Tang Dynasty.
Getting ready to move off~!
The custom was jammed packed with cars and bikes... took us nearly 1 hour to clear the Singapore Custom at 2nd Link. By then, Xris's V-rod's battery is already flat. Luckily with have the "mechanic" around. KC took out the battery from his bike and help Xris jump start the bike. He succeeded!
And so we moved on, for the short ride to Kukup...
Finally reached Kukup and parked our bikes in a little shed...
The ladies....
Had early dinner.. food is average only...
Me and dear... :)
After dinner, we moved into the apartment. They call it the Kukup Resort. It is basically someone's house, rented out for tourists use.
It's quite nice a cosy... :)
BBQ time.
Drinking time!
Drunk and eating chicken wing.... -___-""
And then we are on our way back to Singapore the next day...
Happy New Year to all and have a great 2009~!

My HOG has arrived!!! Waiting to be unpacked... hehe...
Went to collect the bike and was surprised to see so many MRMC bros there... all came to show support and share the joy... haha... And this is Gary, showing me how to operate my toy.... :)
He gave me the seat too... save me quite a lot of money... Thanx man! On my way back, kena a super duper heavy rain... sianz.. first day on my new toy, kena drenched... But its okie.. I'm a biker, not a rider and I'm not made of paper (Ben's favourite quote!). Straight away went to town to meet dear cuz I wanna share my joy with her. Guess she is not comfortable with the bike cuz she gotta get used to the new sitting posture... Hope she can get comfortable with it soon... :)

That's my present for myself~!

2008-12-15T23:20:00.001+08:00

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams...

MRMC Halloween Party @ Thumper

2008-11-03T21:52:00.004+08:00

MRMC had our usual Halloween Ride and Party on 31st Oct.... First stop was Zouk, to take photos with those dressed-up party goers. Then it was to Thumper for a whole night of party!

First stop, Zouk.... The queue was damn long... by the time we reach there at 9pm, the queue was already until the bridge.... luckily we were not going into Zouk to party...

The ladies were more dressed up than us...

Group photo outside Zouk.

Before heading to Thumper...

At Thumper... not as crowded as Zouk, but still quite fun.... :)

Happy Halloween~!

MRMC Day trip to Kluang

2008-10-27T23:07:00.005+08:00

A short day trip to Kluang, Malaysia... that's Chee Wee's home town. Its all about riding, eating, riding, eating.... Too long never go for long rides.. body aching all over.... =P

Gathering at Taman Jurong Mac
Before the trip... still looking fresh..
Chee Wee's house is damn big lah! Can house 18 bikes, 3 cars, with a lot more space to spare! Shiok ah... haha...
Taking a break after the ride...
At Chee Wee's place... looking not so fresh... Think I really old already lah... last time cheong 300km ++ to KL don't feel tired... now only 100km++ to Kluang, whole body aching already... =P
MRMC @ Kluang
You don't often get parking lots reserved for you in front of the shopping centre, with 2 security guards looking after your bikes... hehe..

Evil

2008-10-23T00:50:00.002+08:00

For the first time in my life, I see real evil. The feeling of being back-stabbed has never been felt so deeply. It seems to me like a trap that is laid carefully to lead the naive me into it. And I do admit that I fell into the trap and did what I should not have done. The evil in a person was never so strongly felt before.

And I've learned. Never to be kind. Never to be nice. Never to believe people easily. For in everyone out there, there's evil inside waiting to be unleashed.

The only way to counter this is not to stay on guard. Not to stay vigilant. Not to be prepared. The only way to counter this is to be more evil than evil. To be the evil that evil fears. They say there are karmas... but I will not wait for karma to befall those evils. I will bring karma to them.

I need a ride. A fucking fast ride to blow my mind away.

MRMC Wilton and Joann's Wedding~!

2008-10-01T23:18:00.007+08:00

Harley Davidson 2009 Models Launch

My dream bike... and hopefully my next bike... the Street Bob.... :)

Me, my buddy and his future bike... :)

MRMC Ride to the Wild 2008

2008-09-22T19:18:00.006+08:00

I went for the MRMC annual Ride to the Wild (RTTW) and I must that it was a really different experience. Can't join them for the full 3 days cuz I gotta work, so I only stayed for the first night. The idea was really simple and is fully illustrated in the quotes above. Who says cruisers and sportbikes only belong to the open roads.... =P

I was with the 2nd group cuz of work...

Went for a quick dinner before we join the rest... The Maggie Mee Goreng taste great~!
Joining up with the rest...
Leading the biker's life... Militia Riders style!
That's our bed!

Off to KL for the rest, while I go back to work.... :(

2007 Hayabusa for sale...

2008-09-09T22:35:00.002+08:00

The day has come.... I am selling my Hayabusa. I have decided that I am too slow for the bike, and it will be better for someone who can ride it harder and faster to own it...
Selling at $18,800.
If you are interested, you know what to do... :)

I graduated~!

2008-09-02T15:32:00.003+08:00

After 3 long years.... after many failures... after loads of money spent... I finally GRADUATED~!!! And the result was slightly better than expected. No just a pass degree or 3rd Class... Its a 2nd Class Lower... I missed the 2nd Upper by 1 module, but doesn't matter... at least I graduated!

I'm happy beyond words! My Econs and Maths, which I failed repeatedly twice... finally got 54 and 55 respectively! It had been a very stressful and torturing months of studying, and I am glad all is over now.... :)

Its time to buy my Harley Davidson~!!!!

MRMC 105th Harley Davidson Anniversary @ Singapore Flyer

2008-08-31T01:04:00.004+08:00

Gathering at Sun Hog at Turf City.

Meet up point at Dempsey Road Carpark

Singapore Flyer Carpark... reserved for Harley Davidsons.

At Singapore Flyer.

A busy weekend...

2008-08-24T21:56:00.005+08:00

Saturday... After being away from Singapore for so long, its time to do some catching up. Met up with the Excos and had dinner at Raffles City Cafe Cartel. Food was nothing fantastic, but its the good company of close friends that counts.

After dinner, it was chilling out at Timbre at the Art House. Had a mini birthday celebration for Alan and Ben. Happy Birthday to both of them~! :)

Sunday... Gave KC a birthday surprise. A group of us surprised his at his house, just when he thought he was going out for a quiet dinner... haha... In the end, we made him ride his new Street Bob out to ECP for dinner. Yes, ride in the rain... True biker style!

All drenched~! Dear wasn't that wet cuz I made her wear the windbreaker + raincoat to keep her warm and dry... =P

This photo is a discount card~! The place we had our dinner is at the hawker centre at East Coast Park. It's the place I usually go for nice food like stingray and sambal kang kong. And I was surprised to find out that the stall I usually patronized belongs to Allan's parent!!! Talk about the world being small... And hence I took this photo with Allan... next time just show them this photo to prove that I am his friend, then I will get discount~! hahahaha....

KC was given a choice of finishing up the beer or eating the sambal chili... the choice was obvious... hahaha...

Xris really enjoys the chili crab~! haha... he finished the whole pot of it on his own!!!
This is Ah Soon's very cute daughter!
The birthday boy and the girl who planned all the surprises and dinner.

May all your wishes come true~!
The birthday boy is hungry~!

Lesson learnt....

2008-08-18T13:50:00.002+08:00

I learnt an important lesson today.... Always disconnect your bike's battery if you are not gonna start it for a long time.

After 3 weeks of not starting my bike, the battery died on me. Tried to recharge it at Bikewerk, but the battery is still weak... the voltmeter shows a pathetic 9.5v.... Tried to push start the bike (yes... I tried to PUSH START a Hayabusa.... -___-""") but it just would not start. No choice.... ended up buying a new battery for it and I am $130 poorer now....sianz... :(

It's been a while...

2008-08-17T23:27:00.003+08:00

Its been a long, long time since I last updated. I am going through a very busy period, with endless amount of work to do. Just got back from my overseas training trip and I must say its one hell of an experience. Its not fun to be thrown into a foreign land, to do things you've never been trained on before. I did just that and I am glad I didn't screw it up (well at least in my personal opinion). Details shall not be revealed, as it will make many people unhappy and I risk getting unnecessary attention.

Had a close shave with a scorpion back in the foreign land and for a moment I thought I was gonna die there... Luckily it was just a small scorpion. If not, I won't be able to type out this entry now. You won't believe the kind of pain this small little scorpion can inflict, until you actually got stung by it! I was stung in the chest (luckily not the heart)... and yes... the immerse pain and numbness did give me a fright.

I was told that no one will die of a scorpion sting unless he/she is allergic to it. So I guess I was lucky yar?

The asshole that stung me in the middle of the night, caught alive. He was promptly burnt to death after this photo shoot... -___-""

Not much photos to share since I did not bring my camera along for the trip. No other interesting events to update too since I wasn't around in Singapore. For now its just work, work and more work... Hopefully I can get some colours back into my life soon...

Where are the updates???

2008-07-27T21:44:00.004+08:00

Seriously, its not because I have nothing to update... Its just that I am so freaking busy, I have no time for myself or anything else... let alone keeping my blog alive. As much as I like the financial freedom that working life gives me, I must admit that studying is still more fun. Can I get paid for being a student??? hahaha... there's no best of both world I guess...

Will be going for overseas training in a few hours time, so let's keep this short. In general, I have been flooded with invitations to wedding dinners and baby showers!!!

Congrats to Vincent, Allan and Charlene for their baby's one month old celebration. And soon to come, Lynn's wedding dinner, Wilton's wedding dinner and Alvin Cho's wedding dinner. Yes, everyone is either getting married or making babies! hahaha...

Allan the happy father... the baby looks so tiny in his hands!

The baby seems to be attracted to Toy... haha... Mike's choc fondue does not interest her =P

A very sinful lunch buffet.... hehe...

A short trip to ECP

2008-07-08T19:20:00.004+08:00

This is long overdue. Due to my extremely busy schedule these days, I have not been able to update my blog timely... so I guess we just have to make do with the late postings...

Anyway, baby and me got sick of going to town on a weekend, so we decided to go to the beach for a change...

First time riding a bicycle built for two... quite fun.. but I guess we got the wrong size one... a bit too small for comfort... hahaha...
At Bedok Jetty...

MRMC Blood Run

2008-07-07T00:01:00.005+08:00

In the MRMC, its not just about riding... or drinking... We do charity too~!

Suddenly feels like an invigilator giving out exam papers... hahaha....

Baby can't donate blood... so she was there to give me moral support~
Rave's first time... check out the nice sticker they stick on him...
My 2nd time...
Not pain at all... I think the blood test station is more painful than the actual donation...
Rave's blood taking its own sweet time to flow out... everyone's done except him... haha...

MRMC KL Trip

2008-06-16T21:30:00.007+08:00

I have been wanting to go for a long road trip for the longest time, but the exams held me back. And to make things worse, I have to report back to work the day after my last paper, which left me with no time to do any of my own things. Finally the weekend came and I quickly grab the opportunity to ride to KL with the club.

Gathering at the Taman Jurong Mac...

Taking a photo with my favorite Harley Street Bob. This is the exact bike I test rode some time back. Somehow, Patrick has his way of getting the dealership to lend him the bike... haha...

My very first photo of me riding my busa~! I like~!!!

Its a Saturday morning and everyone is heading to Msia~! Sianz... luckily the bikes' queue is not that bad... You should look at the cars' queue... it started way before the tunnel towards the checkpoint.... -___-"""

eh... can see me or not?

Wilton wanted to try my bike, so I took his bike instead... This is my longest ride on a Harley and I must say, its a totally different feeling. I wouldn't wanna compare it to my busa because its a totally different kind of fun. Each a class of its own.... =)

First stop... Pagoh Shell petrol station. Seems like this is a favorite place for people to make a stop. The last I rode to Melaka with Whisk, we had our first stop here too.

Had our lunch at Melaka. Nice chicken and fish. Those round stuffs are actually the rice balls!

Moving out to our destination.It was a long ride... And traffic is quite heavy, with quite a number of Spore cars...Finally we reached...

Can see the Petronas towers? =)

We expected the traffic condition in KL to be very heavy, but it was surprising light and manageable .My second time in KL....
Dinner time! Things are not really that cheap probably because that's a tourists' area...
Night view of the tower.
Drinking time~!
This is only the beginning.....
MRMC @ KL

The next day... off to Muar for It was a fishing village in Muar, that's why all the dishes are fish... very nice and fresh indeed.Finally, back at GP Shell. Everyone's tired but satisfied... =)
Looking forward to the next trip~!

Its all over....

2008-06-10T21:04:00.002+08:00

Finally, its all over... my last exam for UOL....
Felt a great sense of relief.. but at the same time, abit lost... suddenly don't need to study anything... not used to it... haha...
I guess I won't be free for long... Going back to work tomorrow. Hope everything will be good... :)

Super sianz....

2008-06-07T00:37:00.003+08:00

Been studying at the school library the last few days... and I have it all to myself... Look at it... Would you feel motivated to study? -___-"""""

Finally~!

2008-06-03T22:38:00.003+08:00

Finally cleared my 2 most dreaded subjects... The Law of Business Organisation and Organisation Theory: an Interdisciplinary Approach.

These are really 2 of the worse subjects anyone can encounter... one is memory intensive because you have to really remember loads of cases. The other one needs understanding of Economics, Sociology and Psychology in depth... *faintz*

I'm sure I didn't do well for the both of them. To begin with, I didn't write enough. So that means either my essay lacks content, or there's content but lacks elaboration. But I don't care already lah. I am just happy and glad that it is over. I feel so mentally and physically drained and I need a break, whether I deserve it or not... =P

One last paper... Auditing. I did pretty well for it during the Mock Exam and I hope that with more time and efforts this time round, it will be better!!! :)

The good news is that everything is gonna end soon... on the 10th. And the bad news is... the next day is work! I'm pretty sure AOMC screwed up my posting date, but oh well... start work earlier, means more pay... so not too bad actually lah... =P

Now what I need is a good long ride. Looking forward to my club's event: Ride to the Wild... Its really a ride up north to KL and sleeping wherever we stop, in the wild. It will be fun~!!! :)

For now, I just gotta endure!!!

The scary looking exam hall with the tables and chairs arranged neatly... this is only half of the exam hall... its freaking big~!
With Cindiie and Dionne... we all hope that this is the last time we step into this hall as students... haha...

Dean's ASLC Passing Out Parade

2008-05-29T23:09:00.012+08:00

One fine day, I got a call from my buddy, Dean. He told me he just signed on. And I was totally stunned.... I mean signing on is no big deal... But at the age of 26 and when you are already a Store Manager in one of the largest Starbucks in Singapore, earning at least more than half of what you can earn as a Sergeant.. That is really alot of things to give up!!!

Anyway, I believe he know what he is doing and what he is getting himself into. He wants to do something that he always enjoyed doing. And after many years and many attempts at the Army Recruitment Centre, he finally got his contract!

And off he went, to SISPEC... after months of training, he finally proved us one thing. He is older than the rest of the trainees but he is still a great soldier!

Don't play play... Parade Commander okie... =P

Dean receiving his GOLDEN BAYONET Award!!! Proud of you soldier!
Nothing beats the feeling of having the love of your life put on that hard-earned rank on your uniform... :)
Now you know why he signed on... more than half the people in this photo are regulars.... He gotta join in the fun!!! haha...

Congratulation~!!!

My love will get you home - Christine Glass

2008-05-28T23:40:00.001+08:00

Happen to hear this somewhere and really like the melody and lyrics.... :)

My Love Will Get You Home...

If you wander off too far, my love will get you home.
If you follow the wrong star, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

If the bright lights blind your eyes, my love will get you home.
If your troubles break your stride, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

If you ever feel ashamed, my love will get you home.

An eventful day...

2008-05-24T12:44:00.019+08:00

Too much things happening and by the time I reached home and settled down, its already 3.30am... so here is a late post to update the eventful Friday!

First, some dumb ass comes to my house and scold my sis. I didn't know what was happening until that bunch of monkeys left my house. I don't care what happens between my sis and her ex-bf. But for a 27 year old guy to bring his mother to my house and scold my sis for dumping him (which of course is the right thing to do judging from his current action)... I think its ridiculous. It is a joke. A humiliation to all male kind.

So what if he can't get a job next time? Ask his mum to go and screw the HR department? kaoz... And just when he thought he knew some little secret that we all don't know, he got it all wrong. My parents don't interfere with my sis or my own affairs doesn't mean they don't care. We are still a strong family that will stand united together. When my parents got back from work, the little family gathered and I told them about the events that transpire and my sis also told them everything... No more secrets (sorry to disappoint that loser). My dad was so pissed that he went to the kitchen to take the chopper and wanna bring my sis to confront him at his house. Of course we prevented him from doing that. It takes some real work to cool him down and it doesn't help that he was a bit drunk.

Well, at least everything seems settled for now and my sis can move on in life with someone else who, hopefully, is more man. However, if anyone tries to be funny with the family, they will be in for a good fight. You have no fucking idea who you are dealing with.

Wow, this is probably one of the longest post I've written about anyone or anything... sick... Let's move on to the more fun parts.

*************************************

For some reasons, my club was invited by Temasek Junior College to add some life to their Carnival in school.

Gathering at a ulu coffeeshop along Telok Kurau. They served the worst ice coffee and char kway teow I ever ate in my life.... =P
Crowman giving us the final brief before moving off.
Forming up... first time riding in stadium track, basketball courts and field.... hahaha...

Mine and Kelvin's bike. The Tiger Force on Standby.
Militia Riders Motorcycle Club
First segment... giving the principal and vice-principal a grand entry into the stadium...
Mike's bike... damn chio.. my favourite.
Getting ready to move off...
And into the roaring crowd...
Anyone wanna take photo with the bikes? $5 per photo... haha...
The group of girls made Blackjack damn sad... they go to him saying "Uncle, uncle, can we take photo with you and the bikes?" *faint*
hahahahahaha....

One more group photos before we leave TJC...At Chambers 82. That is when I received a call from Andrew, informing me that he got into an accident. And as usual, it was caused by a damn fucking taxi!!! Why must it always be taxi??? I just lose my friend, Celin to a fuck up taxi driver and now another fuck up taxi driver nearly take away my buddy too! Luckily, Andrew is okie. But his bike is not.
I was jokingly telling him that his bike knows that he is gonna sell it off to buy a Harley, that's why it is throwing a tantrum... haha... Well, anyway, I accompanied him to the dealership just now and placed the deposit for a Harley Nightster. So excited for him!!! My Street Bob will be out soon too! :)

Joke of the Century....

2008-05-23T14:23:00.002+08:00

I can't believe what just happened in my house. Its really the joke of the century. A disgrace to all Male kind... fuck....

Tip of the Year: If you ever lose your GF, go ask your mum and sis for help!

KNS, nobody in the family ever scold my Sis.... you don't fucking get your mum into my house and scold her just because you can't get her back. It just proves one thing. She made the right decision! Fucking make my blood boils.

In Sweet Memories of Celin Choo...

2008-05-18T23:49:00.001+08:00

Goodbye my dear biker friend... You will be missed...
Rest in Peace Celin (aka eggcow)...

Test riding the Harleys~!

2008-05-18T00:32:00.006+08:00

Went to test ride the Harley today with Andrew. While having lunch at Alexander, happen to meet Lionel and asked him to come along too. He made the right decision of joining us cuz there were enough test bikes for all 3 of us~!

Before we hop onto the bikes, we have to sign the form. We are all very excited!!!!
Of course, my little dear will be patiently waiting for me at the showroom while we go out and have fun with the bikes. Thanx dear~! :)

We set off with me riding the Fat Bob, Andrew on the Nightster and Lionel on the Street Bob. Midway, we switched bikes and I got to test the Nightster. Lionel was really impressed with the Harley, even though the thought of buying one never crossed his mind. His opinion of Harley certainly has changed.

Unknown to many, Harley is not just a chunk of heavy metals. The technology for Harley bikes has changed alot, just that the outlook remains the same to maintain the Harley image. Do you know that Harley bikes have this tilt sensor thingy which will cancel the signal for you after you've made you left or right turn!!! Not a big deal, but at least I've not known of any other bike that does that, let alone a Harley which is always perceived by many as old technology...

I went with the intial idea of exploring the Fat Bob cuz I was really into it. But I was surprised to find myself attracted to the Street Bob more... The Street Bob looks much better in real life than in the magazine.

Andrew is most probably gonna pay the deposit to get his Nightster. I will follow suit soon once I get back to work. Do not misunderstand. I have nothing against my Hayabusa and I love every seconds spent on it. Its just that the bike is giving me very bad shoulder, neck and back ache everytime I ride. And considering that I ride everyday on Singapore road, I am exposed to Uncle Sam constantly and I really love my license. =P

And like what others said, I don't go fast on straights (i.e. above 200km/h). I don't play corners. I am simply not fully utilizing the potential of my bike.... :(
haha... okie lah... maybe I am just finding excuses to change bike... =P
Still to early to make any decision... I shall take my time to decide...

Harley Addiction~!

2008-05-15T22:07:00.003+08:00

I've successfully tempted my good old buddy into liking Harleys... hahaha... he is so into it now that he can't wait to buy one. Accompanied him to the dealership right after work and he was almost set to put a downpayment for the Harley Nightster but got a big disappointment instead. The current batch of Harleys were sold out and the next shipment will only comes in August 2009~!!!! Yes... Place your order now and wait ONE LONG YEAR *faint*

That's the thing about Harleys. You want it doesn't mean you will get it. You have money also doesn't mean you can get your hands on one straight away. Only limited pieces will come to Singapore each time and you gotta place your order way before that. Once its all sold, that's it... happy waiting for the next shipment... Got money also no use! Maybe that's why Harleys are so unique.

Anyway, on 2nd thoughts, I might just settle on a Nightster too. More affordable than the Fat Bob :(

We are gonna go for a test ride this coming Saturday and it will be fun~!

Nightster's not bad too... What do you think? Take a look.... :)

My latest addiction...

2008-05-13T22:01:00.003+08:00

Father and son... Owners of Mah Pte Ltd. That's Uncle John who gave me a very, very good price for my Hayabusa. He gave Andrew a very good deal for his G1K6 too. :)

Alright... parting shot... The bike is now on sale. Go get it~! :)

2008-05-10T02:30:00.004+08:00

1 down... 5 more to go..

2008-05-08T21:11:00.002+08:00

I paper down. 5 more to go.
Finally, my examinations have started. Went for my Introduction to Economics this morning. This is my 3rd attempt... Yes, I freaking failed it twice....

Met a number of friends and everyone asked me, how's preparation? prepared for it? scare or not?
Seriously, I've got no feeling from the start to the end of the paper... The only thing that happened is that I kept cursing Amos as I read the questions.... in a mumble of course...

Of course no feeling lah... took the paper for the 3rd time... what kinda feeling you want me to have? This year as usual, Amos throw stunt on the very first question. Luckily this time round I got study quite a bit of the study guide... haiz... just hope can pass lah... Over already, don't wanna look back....

Next up is Maths..... yeah... you heard it right... MATHS AGAIN.... -___-"""

Do I really have to type a title everytime?

2008-05-04T22:10:00.006+08:00

Just received my posting order. I'll be going back to Artillery Institute IMMEDIATELY after my last paper... wah lau... never even give me a day to recover from my exam shock... Oh well, nothing's gonna change even if I kpkb, so just accept thing as it is. Its a mixed feeling. I'm looking forward to going back to work (living 3 years on No Pay Leave is no joke...), but at the same time, I worrying if I am able to cope. Not that I doubt my ability or anything, but I've been a relax student for 3 years and in about a month time, I'll be all serious and routine in camp. And it doesn't help to know that the boss I'm gonna work under is a very demanding man. Let's just hope everything will be fine. Looking forward to catching up with all the friends and colleagues. Its about time I polish my boots, iron my uniform and get my gears ready....

Meanwhile, its studying, studying and more studying... day in day out... hiding in the library, hoping that things do get into the brain... -___-"""
Library is really crowded... It opens at about 9am everyday and by 10am, it will be totally full~! kaoz... have to rush down every morning... and I can't go too early cuz I wanna avoid that stupid ERP gantries. Yes, no way to siam cuz the gantries are placed on both the PIE and Bukit Timah (near Hume Ave)... -__-""

Occasionally, Agnes will take leave from work and study with me...

Yes, this is the new way of studying... Put you head as near to the book as possible so that the words can work their way into the brain.... hehehe....
I also wanna try out the new method of studying.... hehehehe....
Studying is one thing. Occasionally, we also also need to go Msia to pump petrol, during which we will not miss out the Cornetto Royal ice-cream~! Its so expensive in Singapore ($2.50 per cone). In Msia, its only 2.50RM per cone~! Oh yar, during my last petrol run, I nearly ran out of petrol after I U-turn at 312C.. bike felt very choked up and I was really worried that it would die on me before I reach the petrol station. Luckily I managed to gently ride it and I made it to the petrol staion... and I found out how close I was to getting stranded on Msia highway... I pumped 20.5 litres of petrol~!!! *faint* My fuel tank has a max capacity of 21 litres... now you know... =P
Trying to take and artistic photo with the sepia mode... hehe...
Studying is stressful so we squeezed some time out to go for a movie to relax... We watched IRON MAN~! Not bad, nice armour... I wanna be Iron Man too!!! haha...
Okie lah enough of crap... time to go study again... think I'm going crazy soon and I foresee I'll look like this when I do get crazy................

A day full of sad news...

2008-04-30T00:39:00.003+08:00

First, when I was in school, I received a SMS from fellow MRMC bro, Ben, informing us that his wife, Anna, got a stroke and is now in SGH. I was kinda stunned, since we were all happily celebrating the club anniversary just 2 days ago and Anna was also there having fun. She looks very healthy to me... haiz... Hope she get well soon.

Then, just moments ago, I received a SMS from Jerine, informing me that Angeline has passed away from a car accident last night. I know Angeline through NCC, when we went to climb Mount Ophir back in Sec 3. It was just a casual encounter and I didn't get to know her better or keep in touch after that. And after so many years, I did not expect that the next time I hear about her, it was about her passing away.... :(
Rest in Peace Angeline.... and condolence to her family and loved ones....

And just when I thought I've got enough bad news for the day, my mum informed me that she is down with high fever. Doctor examined her and said that she showed symptoms of getting infected with Dengue fever. She's on medication and if her condition doesn't improve in the next few days, she has to go for blood test. Hope that this is just a false alarm and that she will get well soon!!!

To all out there, cherish your loved ones and hold on to them while you still have them (not when you've lost them!) Let them know that you love them (not assume that they should know!). Life is fragile and unpredictable, so live each day to the fullest~!

Dot dot dot.....

2008-04-21T10:59:00.002+08:00

Exam is coming up fast and furious.... and I feel strangely peaceful... Or is it worried until numb already?

Too busy and too lazy to update the blog... not much major events anyway.

First time in St James and the first major turn-off is that there were no proper parking lots for bikes. Either on the disgusting pavement outside St James or the illegal parking at PSA (at the risk of $50 Wheel Cramp fee).

Powerhouse was not too bad... Dragonfly was interesting... But nothing beats having nice prata with a few friends on a Saturday night. =P
Yeah, drinking and getting drunk on over-priced alcohol just doesn't interest me...

This is so random. Will update soon. =P

Quoted from SBF

2008-03-25T20:10:00.004+08:00

I quoted this from SBF Hayabusa Thread by Tish... haha...

Range of speed people are traveling in Msia:

Relax riding 90-160
Exercise 160-220
Backside itchy 220-280
Something wrong up there 280-300+
Gone case = above 300 to the limit

haha... quite an interesting equation.... So far, I'm only "Backside itchy"
Don't know when I will be something wrong up there.... hahahaha....
Anyway this equation is more applicable for busas... ride one to know what I mean.... hehe..

For those who wanna stick to cars and wanna overtake a busa... you can try one of the only 5 production cars in the world that can do that....
They are:
1. Bugatti Veyron
2. Gumpert Apollo
3. Saleen S7 TT
4. Koenigsegg CCX
5. SSC Ultimate Aero TT.

Unfortunately... non of them are on Singapore roads, so till then.. I can still say Busa Rulez~! =P

Totally random...

2008-03-23T23:08:00.010+08:00

Its very sad to see my bike in such a sorry state... Took this while Clifford sent my rim to some metal shop to be pressed back to shape...

Andrew's waiting for MCL to finish work, so I accompany him while he wait... Hanging out at Ice Cold Beer...

Downed a bucket of Mini Asahis... the mini cans are quite cute... haha...

And I finally bought my dream bike~! The BMW R1200 GS Adventure~!!!
Yeah right... wait long long... only got chance to sit on it in the BMW showroom...
5 more years.... :P
Oh by the way, this is $45k OTR.... -__-"""
Can buy 2 hayabusas with spare cash to fix some aftermarket parts....

Kulai Nasi Lemak Trip

2008-03-15T23:59:00.008+08:00

Waiting at GP Esso. Glenn's bike no more petrol... stuck at the Toll... gotta go buy petrol and top up. So everyone else is waiting... :P

Helmets for Sale~!
Delicious Nasi Lemak with superb chicken wing... The Ramly Burgers are damn nice too~! Yum yum... hungry already... haha...
Refuelling before going back to Singapore.
Caleb, Glenn and Lionel with their bikes..
This Kulai trip cost me alot. Kena a super duper big pothole (that looks more like a crater) on the way to the eating place. The bike got a huge impact on the front and the front rim was dented. I hurt my balls and Agnes hurt her arm and wrist...
Spent $120 and more than 6 hours in the workshop to get the rim back in shape. :(

Terrorist on the loose....

2008-03-07T10:17:00.000+08:00

Because of one stupid guy, both the checkpoints to Msia are terribly jammed everyday.... And because of the jam, I can't go in and get cheap petrol.... sibeh sian.... -__-"""

So everyone, please help ease the congestion by ensuring that the terrorist is caught soon. Do your part and call the police if you ever spot him. He can disguise himself and it might be difficult to recognise him... so print this and keep it in your wallet so make it easier for you....

Petrol price increase again... -__-""

2008-03-06T17:39:00.002+08:00

Yes... increase again... by 4 cents... now even Octane 92 cost $2 ++....

Went to pump petrol at Esso just now and nearly faint when I saw the meter... $38..... -__-"""
Okie lah, its not too bad compared to the uncle paying at the counter before me.... $157 after discount.... *faint*

Moral of the story.... don't drive a merc benz if you can't afford to pump $157 of petrol every 3 days... =P

Andrew's Pre-Birthday Celebration

2008-03-01T22:58:00.008+08:00

Birthday boy and MCL
Agnes and Me
Joshua getting drunk before everyone else...
This is damn gay lah... 2 big guys on a small bike.. Oh, that's Andrew's friend's bike... the KSR... 110cc, top speed 120km/h... Don't be fooled by the size of it.. it really packs a punch and the acceleration is better than those pathetic family sedans out there...
Really small bike... the pillion is gonna suffer... hehe...

Last Burst of Fire....

2008-02-27T00:57:00.002+08:00

I am feeling very tired.... I feel that I am losing the fire inside me... As much as I know that this is the time to give my last burst of fire to reach the finishing line, I can't seem to find that fire...

Can I just walk to the finishing line? Am I allowed to walk? Will I reach the finishing line if I walk?

I am looking forward to going back to work. I know its not gonna be as fun as going to school... But after spending 3 years on tight budget and near empty bank accounts... what more fun is there in going to school? I want my financial freedom again...

Sianz.....

2008-02-25T10:41:00.000+08:00

The years thunder by.
The dreams of youth grow dim where they lie caked in dust on the shelves of patience.
Before we know it, the tomb is sealed.
Where, then, lies the answer?
In choice. Which shall it be: bankruptcy of purse or bankruptcy of life?
- Sterling Haden, Voyage, 1976

Thank you Excos!!!

2008-02-21T16:07:00.002+08:00

I actually wanted to wait for the photos to come in from Shirlene before I blog about this but looking at the way it is, I doubt I'm going to get the photos anytime soon so I better blog first. Shirlene I want the photos~!!!! =P

I wanna thank my SRC Excos and Ying (she'll kill be if I forgot to put her name) for giving me a surprise birthday celebration. It was a really belated one but its the thoughts that count. Really appreciate the deliciously sinful chocolate cake and the big Ang Bao from all of them. They really caught me by surprise this time round and Ben was so excited to see that I am finally showing some form of emotion. And Ying was equally excited to see that I flustered abit... haha... Okie lah, you all win... =P

Thank you everyone for the effort~! :)))

Will update with photos once I get my hands on them...

MRMC CNY Celebration

Gathering up...

Riding to our dinner location...

Ride with Pride

Powerbronze Windshield

2008-02-12T11:46:00.000+08:00

Finally got my Powerbronze Windshield after 10 weeks of waiting... the stupid bike shop promised me 4 weeks... and delayed it until 10 weeks... sian... luckily its a really good windshield. At least worth the effort of waiting, though it can be frustrating.

My new windshield~!

Happy Chinese New Year~!

2008-02-12T11:15:00.000+08:00

Happy Chinese New Year to all~! May you all have a prosperous and lucky year ahead!
CNY is a time for catching up with relatives and friends. No longer looking forward to collecting Ang Baos since the amount is getting pathetic... No one gives adults Ang Baos anymore... =( Most of them are looking forward to me giving Ang Baos instead... wait long long... =P

Managed to catch up with my cousin Sean, who has been studying in Australia for the last 5 years and has not been back to Singapore for the last 2 years plus. Still looks the same.. haha...
The cousins... =)
The family... =)
Also went to visit Agnes's friend. He has got a really cute daughter name Natalie. Very intelligent for a 17 months old baby... =)
Nice friends and nice house... =)

Happy Birthday to Myself~!

2008-02-05T01:14:00.000+08:00

Happy Birthday to myself~! One year older.. entering the mid-twenties... I think as we grow older, birthdays just don't seem to be as exciting anymore. Nonetheless, I do appreciate all the Facebook, Friendster, MSN and SMS birthday well-wishes from my friends. Its heartwarming enough to know that there are people out there who remember my birthday and bother to take the effort to send me a message... Thank you everyone~!

I am not a fan of big birthday parties. Just a simple dinner with loved ones is enjoyable enough for me... Dinner was at The Black Angus... a steakhouse at Tanglin area. Agnes knows that I love steaks and specially went to search for places that offers great steak. She finally decided on The Black Angus, label as the place that offers the No. 1 American Steaks~!
The place was nice. The steak I had was the best I've ever had in my life so far. Cannot really remember the name of the dish, neither did I take any photos of it cuz I was busy savouring the wonderful steak.... hehehe...
And just as I thought we're done with dinner and ready to leave, Agnes surprises me with a birthday cake! It was a Chocolate Fudge cake and I tell you, its super duper sinful~!!! The cake itself was already rich with chocolate and filled with chocolate fudge. To top it off, it even comes with a cup of hot chocolate fudge for us to pour over the ice-cream and cake.... yum yum... now looking at the photo, I can still remember how it taste like.... *slurps*

Birthday Boy with the birthday cake.... :)
Thank you for the wonderful dinner~!

*********************
Went to school for lesson and got a little surprise from Jing and Dionne. Thanx for the birthday cake~! :)))

Malacca Day Trip

2008-02-02T00:19:00.000+08:00

Went on a short day trip to Malacca on Saturday. 2 Hayabusa and 1 Super 4. Met up at Tuas Checkpoint at 10am and I was late.. hehe...

First stop, GP Petronas to top up the petrol.... Grab some drinks, go toilet and we are ready to move off... My first long ride on the North-South Highway. The distance to Malacca is about 180km.

Gears on. Dear wearing the full-face helmet I just bought for her.. Nothing fantastic or expensive. Its just an average helmet. Will get a good one for her next time when I got money. Initially she wanted to wear her open face helmet, but I think its really dangerous to be riding on the NSHW with anything less than a full face helmet. That should be the minimum requirement when riding in the Malaysia...

Everyone getting ready to go. Whisk's busa will be the lead bike. Firstly, because he knows the way. Secondly, his HID headlight is damn irritating and he will blind us all if he rides behind us, especially at night on the pitch black NSHW... =P
Next stop, Pagoh... about 50km ++ before Malacca.... After riding 100km ++, my balls really hurts... butt cramp, legs cramp, hands numb... wah, its a terrible feeling.... And I also concluded something... Singaporean drivers are the most screwed up drivers you can find on the NSHW... Stupid Singaporean drivers think driving at 140km/h on the NSHW is very fast. Just because you are driving way above the speed limit doesn't mean that you are very fast... kaoz... At least those Msian drivers know that they are slow and will always move to the left lane and let us pass.. I noticed that not a single singapore cars move to the left and let us pass... -___-"""

Agnes and Me... :)
Sian... almost reach Malacca then it rained.... -__-""
Finally get to eat our dinner...

On our way back... can see that dear is super tired... surprising, I still felt quite energetic... Maybe because I was constantly riding, got things to do. Dear has nothing to do for the whole journey, so she was sleeping behind me all the way... yes.... sleeping behind while I was riding at 160-180km/h..... *faint*

Finally reach GP Petronas... Whisk, James and Apple were too hungry.. buay tahan already so just buy Nasi Lemak and eat outside the petrol station... haha...

Happy Birthday Dear~!

2008-02-01T00:11:00.000+08:00

The Birthday Girl~ =)

Happy Birthday~!

The future awaits us..................................

2008-01-31T13:25:00.000+08:00

Can't sleep....

2008-01-30T03:58:00.000+08:00

Damn... its freaking 4am and I simply cannot get to sleep... Have been tossing around in bed since 2 am.. must be the coffee I drank at Kulai just now... sianz...Worst of all, I have morning lesson in about 4 hours time~!!!

Anyway, I went to Kulai for Dim Sum with Whisk and James just now. It was my first time to Kulai, so its pretty fun. Didn't really go fast... just a leisure ride to Kulai and back. The Dim Sum was not bad. There were 5 of us and we ate quite a bit and its only 84RM.... I think that's pretty cheap for 5 person... haha...

Next up would be Melaka day trip this Saturday.... I'm thinking that I should get a fullface helmet for Agnes... Somehow I just feel very uncomfortable for her to go to the trip with me on a open face helmet. The basic gears would be full face helmet, armoured jacket, jeans and boots... The least she should have would be a fullface helmet. Hmmm... probably gonna check out some helmets tomorrow.... I can't really afford a good and expensive one for now... probably have to settle for a simple one... Let's hope I get a good deal... =P

Damn, this is the 3rd night I'm sleeping without aircon and its getting quite irritating... I'm not a spoiled brat who needs to sleep in aircon room... its just that my home condition makes sleeping without aircon quite terrible. We have to close all windows when we sleep and that makes the whole room super stuffy.... even with the fan blasting, its simply circulating the hot and warm air that is stuck in the room... that's why I am sweating now and probably that's why I still can't get to sleep.... haiz...

Okie lah, enough of craps... Gonna try sleeping again....

The weekend...

2008-01-27T22:27:00.000+08:00

25 Jan '08, Friday

Dinner treat from Agnes~! She got her bonus and gave me a dinner treat at Sakae Sushi... yum yum... been a long time since I ate my favourite sushi and sashimi... hehe... Thanx dear~!

Went on to watch The Mist... The show is average, but as usual, it did not pass Agnes's test... She has high expectation for movies... hehe... I must agree that the way the movie end is kinda senseless.... But one thing we both agree on is that the woman in the show that keep preaching about God is freaking irritating and deserve the shot she got in the head... opps I'm revealing too much... watch it yourself~! =P

26 Jan '08, Saturday

It was Hady's big day as he is finally getting married. Hady was one of my colleagues back in BMTC and I'm honoured that he remembered me and invited me to his wedding dinner. Congratulation Hady~! Ceying was there too and it was nice to do some catching up with him.

Met up with Agnes after she finished her one full day of shopping with her colleague and we decided to go to Geylang Yong He for the soya beancurd.... It was heavy with traffic as usual... luckily we were on Miss Busa and we managed to keep moving consistently... though not without some sweat... Miss Busa is a hot babe to handle~!

We went up and down the whole stretch of Geylang but simply cannot find Yong He... I remembered quite well where the shop was, but when we reach there, its no longer the same shop... We went around to explore and finally found Yong He at Lor 27A.... It has shifted about a month ago.... -___-"""

Luckily the beancurd is still as nice and delicious as before... so all that sweat and frustrations were not in vain...

Okie, so for those of you who can't find Yong He and thought it has closed down.... Good news... its new location is at the end of Lor 27A... Happy eating~! :)

27 Jan '08, Sunday

My club had a ride up north for some nice seafood, but I was unable to join them cuz I gotta work.. Nonetheless, I still met up with them and ride with them up to GP before U-turning back at 312C... Enjoy the wind and get some petrol... :)

Sunday morning is great to ride in... Perfect weather, good road condition, perfect visibility and no other vehicles on the road while on my way towards Southbound R&R... and that was the perfect opportunity for me to break my psychological barrier... And I finally broke it today~! I finally went pass that 200km/h mark and clocked 220km/h on Miss Busa~! Okie lah, 220km/h is probably nothing much for most Busa riders out there, since there are plenty of them who can easily clock 300-340km/h.... But it was a great deal for me cuz I've always been unable to break that 200km/h mark... always hovering at 180 to 190...

Now I finally understand why they say this beast is built for speed.... at 220km/h, it felt extremely stable... as if the bike is sucked onto the road surface... If not because the balls is already in my throat, the bike can easily go faster... Not too bad.. a good start... but that's not something I am gonna do frequently since I do not see the need to go that fast.... yet.

Runny nose.... -_-"

2008-01-23T17:55:00.000+08:00

Running nose for the last 3 days... sneeze until nose red already.... sianz...

20th Jan....

2008-01-20T23:14:00.001+08:00

Weather in Singapore is really random. One moment it can be bright and sunny, the next moment it can be thunderstorm.... -_-"

I am a biker, not a rider. Rain or shine, I will ride... but sometimes, the rain gets a bit too heavy... so I have no choice but to take shelter.... bleah... Actually, sometimes I find it quite calming and relaxing, to be sitting alone at the bus stop watching the rain dropping and the cars zooming by...

Wanted to study, but as usual, got a bit lazy.... and we ended up.....

Yup~! Went to Msia to clear carbon and pump petrol with Agnes.. Of course, my wingman, Andrew came along too. Some improvement... slowly getting use to high speed... i can now ride face up at 180kph... don't need to hide behind the windshield. But of course once the needle goes above 200kph, that's a different ball game altogether.... Didn't wanna try 200kph today cuz Agnes was behind me. I need to slowly get used to the speed, so does she. A few more rounds of training, and some proper gears (i.e. Fullface helmets, jackets and boots) and we should be on our way to tour Msia and Thailand soon... (after I graduate that is... =P)

Went to Vivo after that, wanting to catch "One Missed Call" at 9.55pm, but the last slot available was at 7.35pm~! Sianz... the GV website not accurate one... =P
No movie to watch, then eat ice-cream lor....

Ben&Jerry's... All time favourite!

Painting painting painting....

2008-01-20T01:27:00.000+08:00

Painting again today~! Painted the corridor that leads from the living room to the bedrooms. Tough job as usual... but luckily Agnes was there to help. She's simply addicted to painting and refuse to stop~! *faint* Finally all the paintings are done... almost... Needed to paint the corridor ceiling too but need to patch up some holes first... For now, I am gonna take a break... scare of painting already... =P

* * * * *

Goodluck for those who are gonna register for UOL degree programmes in future... They are gonna raise the passing marks from 34 to 40. Yes!!! 40!!! *faint* 34 already so difficult to get and now they wanna make it 40. I think that's probably because there are too much 1st Class Honours.. that's why they wanna make it more difficult... =P
But its okie... cuz I am graduating (hopefully) this year! haha...

Exam is round the corner but the mood to study is not quite there yet. Somehow I feel that this year I am more slack. Die lah... crucial final year... better no screw it up. Jia yoU~!!!

Happy Birthday Cindiie~!!!

Operation Typhoon

2008-01-16T00:21:00.001+08:00

After more than 5 years of living in my messy room, I've finally decided to do something about it. A new paint job and a rearrangement of furniture is what my room needs.... And Operation Typhoon begins...

After the first wave of typhoon, I realised how much junks my room has... I can't believe I still can find my primary school textbooks and secondary school notes in my room... I cleared loads of stuffs from my room and I do it with one simple rule. Anything that has not been touched for the last 2 years will be thrown away!!! Yes ANYTHING at all.... These included things like sec sch notes, poly notes, display items on my shelf etc. I also threw away more than 10 bags which I've not used for the last 5 years... Okie lah, I didn't really threw them away... I packed them up nicely and leave it near the rubbish collection area, and hopefully the rubbish collector will be interested in it and bring it back to use... Mind you, the bags are in pretty good condition and non of them are spoiled or anything.. They just didn't fit the "one simple rule"....

Then begins the painting. My room is damn small and I thought it would be easy. I am soooooo WRONG! It is precisely because it is small, that's why it was extremely difficult to paint. Too little spaces to shift the furnitures around. The shelf, bed and table practically took up every inch of my room. I had to work within confined spaces and it is definitely straining on the muscles... Needless to say, I ended up with a few days of backache.... -___-""

Luckily, Agnes was here to help~! Despite a hard day at work, she came over immediately after work to help with the painting. Thank you~!!! We were suppose to go out, but we ended up spending the whole night painting because I under-estimated the amount of work to be done... Sorry~!

This is my room BEFORE Operation Typhoon....

This is my room AFTER Operation Typhoon~! Okie lah, didn't really managed to squeeze out more space with the new furniture arrangement, but it does looks neater right? hehehe...

Happy New Year~!

2008-01-06T01:43:00.000+08:00

Been a long long time since I last updated. Happy New Year to all~! Ya I know its kinda late, but its the thought that counts right? =)
I guess its because I am getting old... that's why time seems to past much faster. In the blink of the eyes, 2007 is gone. 2007 had not been a very good year... Hopefully 2008 will be better... I read quite a few blogs and it seems typical that people write about their New Year Resolutions at the start of the year... Maybe I should do that too.. =P

My 2008 Resolutions:
1. Pass my exam... yes I friggin need to pass all of the 5.5 subjects I'm taking this year to graduate properly... and I have not been really revising... so yeah.. time to wake up~!

2. Clear all my debts... yes yes I do owe Mum and Dad quite a sum of money cuz of my studies.. owe a few others and the Army too... I wanna clear all the debts as soon as possible cuz I hate to owe people things, especially money. Mum and Dad gets the priority of course.

3. Ride up to Thailand... You heard it right.. RIDE up to Thailand... that's is something I've been wanting to do, but do not have the money, energy, time and guts to do it. I wanna experience it at least once. But first I need to train up by going for short trips up north... Malacca, KL, Penang... just to name a few... =P

4. Be a better man, son, brother, bf, friend... Not that I am very lousy now, but it can be better...

5. Do well in my career... This is important because it can help fulfill Resolution 2 and 3, and that will somehow lead to the fulfillment of Resolution 4.

Okie lah, I don't have much resolutions. That should be all for now.

----------------------------------------------------

MC King, the comedian from Ch 8 just passed away. I used to watch his shows when I was much younger. Its really shocking to know that he suddenly passed away just like that.

Recently, I got to read alot about people passing away suddenly. Just last week, before Christmas, a fellow rider passed away in an accident at Pasir Gudang Track. I don't know him at all, but he is a friend of a number of my friends. I read about the msgs his gf wrote in the bike forum and it really saddens me.... haiz... life is fragile... Cherish your loved one. Show it to them that you love them. Use action. Words and thoughts are useless. Its no use just knowing or saying you love someone. Show it with your action. You'll never know when your loved ones will just suddenly leave this world... so show them your love while you can.

R.I.P. Jimmy Nah (aka MC King) and Marcus (aka flowers)...

X'mas Celebration

2007-12-25T22:46:00.000+08:00

As the years get by one after another, Christmas celebration has become more and more dull. No more crazy partying, no more squeezing with people at Orchard Road... Those kind of things have simply lost its appeal on me. Perhaps its because I am getting old. For now, nothing beats hanging out together with a group of good friends, eating, drinking and chatting to our hearts' contend. This year's Christmas gathering was done at Francis's house.

The most interesting thing in his house is the Wii... okie I don't really know the full name of that gadget since I am not really into these gaming stuffs. Its basically some game console which requires you to move your hands and body to control the character inside the game. It might sound pretty simple. That's what I thought initially. But its really a very energy draining and body aching way of playing games~! I played boxing, tennis, baseball the whole of Christmas eve and I tell you, my body ache like crazy the next morning. I even have problem taking out my T-shirt~! Arms aching, back aching... my god.. can't believe play computer game can also play until like that. This is really a good game console for those lazy bums who don't like to get out of the house, cuz you can really sweat it out and exercise with it!

Me and Dean on guard~!
In action! Boxing each other... haha.. check out Francis's new LCD TV!

My Picture Personality from Facebook...

2007-12-13T17:20:00.000+08:00

Temperament

Flexible

Nothing seems to bother you - you sail through life crisis free. It's not that your life doesn't have its ups and downs, it's just that you handle everything without unnecessary drama and antics. You approach each day fresh, not worrying about yesterday or tomorrow. You are confident that you can handle anything that comes your way and experience has shown that you are absolutely right about this.

Interests

Simple

You are continually pursuing a simpler and less complicated life - you don't allow yourself to fall victim to all of the "should do's" that society continually bombards you with. You are thoughtful about your life choices and think in terms of yourself, others and the world in which we live. You have a great sense that we are part of something much bigger and we must be good to others, if we want others and the world to be good to us.

Amusement

Adventurous

It's a good thing that you are filled with energy and ambitions (that others sometimes find exhausting) because you're continually looking for a new adventure and exciting experience. You struggle with a continual feeling of restlessness which constantly pushes you to the next level of excitement. Once you have accomplished one thing, you are eager to accomplish something more exciting, riskier and distinguishable.

Passion

Physical

You are a cuddle bug - from a warm hug shared with your best friend to steamy sex with your partner, you enjoy every bit of human contact that you can get. You demonstrate your love for others most fluidly through physical one-on-one contact and you feel the most loved when you are being touched. You feel disconnected when you are physically isolated from others. You're a people person and a lover of all things human.

Finally~

After hesistating for so long, I finally fixed up my steel brake lines. Got it at $150 for 3 lines thanx to the SBF Anniversary promotion. I am a happy man now. The feeling of the better braking effect is damn shiok. Next up, Brembo Master Brake Pump~! But I guess I will be hesistating much more before forking out $560 for that.... haha...

Raining every day... super sian... wanna go Msia pump petrol also cannot... haiz.... =P

Life is fragile...

2007-11-26T15:59:00.000+08:00

This is a very sad period for the Dragonboat community in Singapore. The Nation has lost 5 of its best rowers. One of them is a fellow schoolmate from SIM. Though I know nothing about dragonboat and I know nothing about Jeremy Goh... I still felt very sad when I read about the news... Perhaps its because those guys were all about the same age as me.. that's why I can feel how much they've left behind and also the pain of their parents and relatives. There's still a very bright future ahead of them but now, without any warnings, they are gone. My heartfelt condolences goes to the friends and families of the 5 rowers... the 5 passionate rowers who dedicated their lifetime doing the thing they loved most... perhaps the only consolation comes in the knowledge that they died doing the things they loved... Rest in peace dear friends....

I received a SMS from Shao Wei... one of his ex-trainee passed away during a 2.4km run due to heat exhaustion. Another sad news that is hard to accept. It is hard to accept that a routine run can turned out to be a tragedy... Life is fragile and unpredictable... we can hardly know what is going to happen next. Cherish your life and cherish what you have.... for you'll never know when you are going to lost it all...

Spoiled~!

2007-11-13T22:59:00.000+08:00

My 2 weeks old voltmeter is giving me a blank look.... I was riding halfway just now when I took a glance at my voltmeter and noticed that it was totally blank! Reach home, straight away tried to press the buttons, took it out and give it a few shakes.... all in vain.... $50 leh... KNS...

Super sian lor... can anyone tell me why???? Damn heart pain now..... =(((

"Lucky" weekend...

2007-11-05T18:25:00.000+08:00

What an exciting weekend. I got into an accident~!!!!
Okie lah relax... no big deal. I'm not injured.... Here's what happen....
I was traveling along the super jammed Serangoon Road on Saturday with Andrew cuz we wanna go to Guan Hoe (Suzuki Agent). The road is full of both cars and people cuz of the upcoming Deepavali I guess. I was riding behind this super irritating Toyota Camry who is going too slowly even when the road starts to clear up with no other cars in front. And even when I try to change lane to over take him, he keep shifting from left to right, preventing me from overtaking... whether he did it on purpose or not I don't know and I don't care...

When I finally got an opening on my left, I accelerated and within a blink of the eyes, I was right in front of him. The unfortunate thing is that I can't open up and clear the road cuz the traffic light right in front of me turned red, so I gotta brake quickly to stop... I managed to stop right in front of the white stop line at the traffic light and the next thing I know.... BANG! That stupid mother fucker Toyota Camry banged into me from behind! I was lucky and did not fall, probably cuz my hand was still on my brakes, thus making the bike more stable at that stationary position. Both of us immediately got down to assess the damage... The driver was a stupid old man.
Driver: Why you brake suddenly!
Me: Red light I don't stop then what you want me to do?
Driver: But you cannot just brake like that mah...
(Na beh, stupid driver wanna teach a biker how to brake?)

By that time, I was busy looking at my bike, trying to find ways to claim until his pants drop.... But surprise surprise... there was no visible damage to my bike... not even a single scratch! Apparently, he banged into my rear tire.... -__-"""
Sianz.... thought can claim a new pair of aftermarket exhaust or maybe a new rim....
Then I look at his car.... Number plate brake into 2 and fell off.... Front bumper dent in, and front bumper a bit out of place.... kaoz.... Car bang bike, end up the car got more damage... -__-"""""
He can say whatever he wants, but ultimately he was the one at fault. Hit me from behind and right in front of a traffic light, simply means he can't stop in time. Stupid Camry, a supposedly better Toyota, with 4 wheels, can't stop in time whereas my 2 wheels bike can. Don't know which school he got his license from... never teach him ebrake.

Driver: So how now? You want to claim or settle privately?
(Seeing that there's nothing to claim...)
Me: No visible damage then settle privately lor.
Driver: Okie we write an agreement stating that you won't claim from me.

And he got busy writing down the car and bike details, place of accident etc, then got me to sign... At that point in time, I am still feeling uncomfortable about the bike and is worried that there might be internal damage... And I am quite reluctant to sign that stupid agreement. So when he was finally done and got me to sign... I signed... but not my name.... I signed "Will Claim" but in a very signature manner... hehehehe... Okie lah, just as an insurance in case I need to claim him for internal repair mah. I am not going to pay for damage caused by a stupid car driver. And before I ride off....

Driver: Next time must ride carefully hor.
Me: -____-"""""""""""""
(Too lazy to argue with him... )

Went to Clifford for a check on the rear wheel just now and luckily all is fine. Nothing breaks. Thank goodness..... =)

Updates for the week~!

2007-10-28T18:01:00.000+08:00

Okie... so it has been a busy week for me with loads of things to do... no time and energy to slowly blog about it day by day, so let's just do it all at once... =P

22 Oct (Mon)
Resident Evil 3 with Jacq. Its a damn nice show~! My all time favourite. This time round its as good as before and there is definitely going to be a Resident Evil 4. Looking forward to that... =)

23 Oct (Tue)
Dinner treat at The Rice Table at International Building by Caroline, for the Student Care and Services department. It's for the work we've contributed for the Student Week.. helping to organise Duet Superstar etc.

Full day lesson as usual. Went to HKL to check out the K&N Air Filter for my bike. Wah lao its damn expensive lor... $110... BMC is worse at $180... I need to change my air filter~!!! Okie lah... its not a need but I want~!!! Dinner with Jas at the Thomson Prata House after that.

25 Oct (Thur)
Went to Regina to check out the fuel tank cap sticker but there's none. So I went to the shop opposite Regina to get it. Damn sianz lor... spent $20 on a fuel tank cap sticker that can't stick... The surface of the outer ring of my fuel tank cap is very rough and needs very strong adhesive tape to stick well. Apparently the one I got is not of good quality.... =(
Hang out with Martin at Dean's store. Now not only are we casual labour for Dean's store, we are also Despatch Riders~!! KNS... he want us to help him send 8 sleeves of cups to the One Fullerton store... Smartass Martin agrees but when he reaches his bike, he realised that there's no way for him to carry that huge paperbag full of cups on his bike... Ended up I pillion him over to One Fullerton... sibeh gay lor... I hate to pillion guys... and he has to sit so close to me..... -__-""" Anyway, he finally get to feel the power of Hayabusa... I think he is more tempted to get his Class 2 bike already.... haha...
Pick Jacq up from her work place at Changi Airport to have supper at Bedok 85. Seriously, I think the bar chor mee there is really over-rated... quite normal what... don't know why everyone also say that its damn good... okie lah actually to me bar chor mee all taste the same... =P

26 Oct (Fri)
Dinner with Evelyn at Kim Gary's HK Cafe at Vivocity. Wah the queue was damn long when I reached lor... Luckily the food was not bad. Its nice to be catching up with her. I know Evelyn will be reading this (I just found out I got myself a blog fan~! hahahaha.... )... So, thank you for the company~!
Went to a pub at Clarke Quay to join Andrew and friends for some live band performance. Been a week since I catch up with Andrew. He is damn busy with work cuz he is preparing for a trip to Houston again.. Must ask him to help me buy some accessories for my busa~!!! The band was okie but the crowd is sucky. Got a bit sick looking at all those SPG trying to hit on those Ang Mos... *puke* The rest of them continued to party at Butter Factory, but I don't feel like clubbing, so Agnes and me went off for prata at Jalan Kayu. Still prefer the prata at Thomson but it was a bit out of the way. =P

Went to help out at dad's stall as usual. After work, on one of my secondary schoolmate, Andrew's invitation (okie... I have lots of friends name Andrew~!), I went over to join his club's Halloween Ride. His was a motorcycle club made up of mostly Harleys riders. But there are a few riders with other bike makes too. I was there with Lionel (Z1000) and its really quite fun.

Andrew's club... MRMC
At Carpenter's Street, preparing to move off...
We have Fazer1000 too~ Nice and friendly rider, though I forgot his name already...
Andrew, Lionel and Me.. friends since secondary school... We stopped over at Zouk to take photos with those party-goers who were all really dressed up in the weirdest costumes for the Halloween Party~! Everyone were in costumes and they made us look like the weird ones without any costumes... haha...
MRMC and the party-goers~
Me, Lionel, Andrew and Andrew.... haha... My buddy Andrew Ong came over and joined us too. Had a great chat, the bikers style.

28 Oct (Sun)
Freaking tired..... Time to take a good rest..... zzzzzz

2007-10-23T11:39:00.000+08:00

Every rose has its thorns,

just as everybody have their flaws.

loving someone isn't a constant pursue of trying to remove the thorns,

but to learn the acceptance of the pricks.

A thorn defends the rose,

harming only those who would steal the blossom.

A Day at Lakeside Fishing Village...

2007-10-20T22:07:00.000+08:00

On a nice stormy Saturday morning, I crawled out of bed and went prawn fishing at Lakeside Fishing Village~! OMG.... I still can't believe I actually managed to wake up. Went for breakfast at Taman Jurong Market. Wah that place is super ulu lor... the road names are weird and quite confusing. Luckily the sky began to clear when we reach the fishing village... not too bad after all... =)

Martin cutting up the cockles to be used as baits... looking professional as usual... haha... Okie lah, actually the rest of us were just too lazy to do the dirty work... hehe..

My first time fishing for prawn... hehehe.... trying to look pro... but damn... 2 whole hours and never catch a single thing~!!! -__-""

Patiently waiting.....

Still waiting.... look at Kelvin's fishing rod.... after 2 hours of waiting, can't hold straight anymore.... hahahaha....
And so we got bored and decided to watch people fish instead....

Fishing seems easier lor... this guy catch fish like nobody's business... the moment he throw his hook in, he will get a catch... he got at least 10 over fish, each one of them at least the size of the one in the photo...
We were all kinda demoralised, when Evelyn finally decided to use her beauty smile to charm that malay uncle who was fishing beside us. He was damn pro lah.. throw in the hook, less than a minute, confirm can catch a prawn... and he just kept catching one after another, making us look like 4 idiots staring blankly into the water, hoping that a prawn will just pop out of the water.... -_-"" Evelyn managed to get the uncle to reveal to us the secret trick. Shall not waste server space by elaborating the trick. Pay me and I will teach you... hehehe... Anyway, after we've learned the trick, the 4 of us managed to catch 10 prawns within the next 50 mins~!!! Kaoz... Evelyn should have used her charm earlier... we might just end up with 30 prawns... =P

Martin's first catch using the secret trick!!!

My first catch after 2 hours~! That's after using the secret trick for less than a minute... hehe... Its quite a big prawn lor... =P

Trying hard... last burst of fire to recover what we lost in the last 2 hours...
The final count... 10 prawns in the net, 1 dead, 1 escaped from Kelvin's hand!

Captain's Ball @ SIM

2007-10-19T21:57:00.000+08:00

Used to be the game I always play back in secondary school. I am damn lousy with soccer, that's why I always ended up playing captain's ball with the ladies. Ended up I pretty good at it... haha... Got to play it again today. A competition organised by the SIM Netball Club. We played 4 games but didn't managed to make it into the semi-finals. Its alright I guess... just for the fun of it..... =)
Guess I am really getting old... each game of 7mins is enough to make me totally shagged out... haha... time to train up the stamina again...

My team with Caroline... Gone Stale... That's our team name... haha...
Waiting for our turn.... zzzzz
The Game...
After the first game.... still feeling okie... hehe...
After the last game... haha... hours in the sun have no effect on my fair skin... -__-""
Good game guys and girls~!

SIM Bikers Outing

2007-10-16T23:43:00.000+08:00

After so many months of talking, finally it happened... haha... Met up with 6 other SIM Bikers today for dinner at Al Ameem. Made new friends and it was fun. Now I know the owners of the bikes I always park beside at the carpark. Luckily the rain stopped in time and we were able to make our way there from school without getting drenched.

The bad thing is that we all kena summon.... -__-"
Was eating halfway when one of us saw a traffic warden giving summon to the cars. We thought since he is at the cars side, that means we still got chance. All of us quickly run to our bikes. Got a big surprise when we saw 3 traffic wardens standing there issuing summons... sianz... kena already... all 6 of us... =P

Crazy leh... 3 wardens all at once... kns.... run so fast also no use.... luckily its only 8 bucks.... I think its a proven fact that it is a must to put coupons at the Al Ameem carpark... the traffic wardens are very siao on about that area.. dunno why also.... -_-""

It is always nice chatting with people who have common interest.... loads of experience sharing and tips. Daryl is getting more siao.... say wanna bring us go Ipoh eat donuts... *faint* or go Pagoh eat A&W *faint faint*..... Glenn suggest going to Port Dickson eat KFC.... SINGAPORE DON'T HAVE KFC MEH??? haha.... Chicken rice lunch at Malacca sounds great too.... wah crazy... as if Singapore really no food to eat... must go so far... But its not about the food... the food is just the bonus... its all about the ride.... =)

Two Days We Should Not Worry

2007-10-12T00:30:00.001+08:00

Two Days We Should Not Worry

There are two days in every week about which we should not worry,
two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension.

One of these days is Yesterday with all its mistakes and cares,
its faults and blunders, its aches and pains.

Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control.
All the money in the world cannot bring back Yesterday.

We cannot undo a single act we performed;
we cannot erase a single word we said.
Yesterday is gone forever.

The other day we should not worry about is Tomorrow
with all its possible adversities, its burdens,
its large promise and its poor performance;
Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control.

Tomorrow's sun will rise,
either in splendour or behind a mask of clouds, but it will rise.
Until it does, we have no stake in Tomorrow,
for it is yet to be born.

This leaves only one day, Today.
Any person can fight the battle of just one day.
It is when you and I add the burdens of those two awful eternities
Yesterday and Tomorrow that we break down.

It is not the experience of Today that drives a person mad,
it is the remorse or bitterness of something which happened Yesterday
and the dread of what Tomorrow may bring.

Let us, therefore, live but one day at a time.

Sianz...
