A busy weekend...

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....

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...

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???

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

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

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

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~!
