when enough is enough
Im now in the lowest point of my life. When i thought that after completing my NS, life would be great, but no! It was to begin with, but things start to change. My dad treats me like an atm machine, my work is no longer fun. I no longer come to work with a positive mindset. I use to be the guy who looks forward to come to work. But thats all over. Look at me now, Im now in a clinic to get an MC. My superior starts giving me bullcrap shifts working from 6pm-12am and reaching home only at 3am and then expecting me ti start working the next day at 8am-4pm. Why do they do that? Cause they know I can do it and even if I cant, I dont have a choice. Im loosing my energy, loosing the inner fun of me. Tell me people, what do I need to regain every aspect of my life???!!!

Lost & not Found
If notfor my sister forgetting her office keys, I would be happily lazing at home. If not not her carelessness, I wouldn't have need to go down to her office to pass her the key. If not for that, I wouldn't have dropped my pouch containing an Ipod Touch, Earpiece & newly bought pack of cigaretes. OMG!! Hard earn money to buy gadgets all gone in a matter of seconds!!

A Blog Just For You And Me
Letting it go wasn't easy but something I had to do. I cant hold on to it and just keep on hoping that a miracle will happen. I shall put it as my past and look ahead of life.

When Friends @ Work Go Crazy
I miss all this crazy people since I've been sent over to Privé for training. Since I've been gone, many things has happened. My Barista has resigned and gone M.I.A ever since. My manager (the skinny botak mouse in the pic eating pizza) has left. Yoko, the milkshake ghost, is serving her notice and will be leaving me in a few days time. I seriously will miss every single one of them.

Sleep Wake Up & Off To Work
day by day, my life is getting sad. Work starts at 4pm, finish at 12am, wait for transport till 2am, get home by 3am. click here and there on the computer till 5-6am. Sleep till 1.30pm, and it all happens again the next day.

New Buy
New shoes and pedals for me, means a new biking experience. Locking the shoe into the pedals is not that simple for me, especially when going of on a traffic light with tones of cars behind waiting for you.

Its Just Wrong
What has happened to the mindset of every local Singaporean? Are we becoming dependable to every aspects of life. This has come to my mind recently after reading a book written by Neil Humphreys named "Even a Smaller Island". The book is about Singapore in the eyes of a foreigner who has the right to speak his mind as he has stayed here for 5 years during the time the book was published in 2003.
One thing he mentioned in the book was about Senior Citizens here. Why do we let them work till the age of 200 so that they can earn just enough to eat only a plate of rice with maybe nothing but soy sauce and a piece of fried egg. We people eat in fast food restaurants and leave the table without clearing the tray but instead let the poor old aunty come from one end of the restaurant staggering to the table that we once sat on just to clear that tray full of burger wrapping and a paper cup. How much effort does it take to do that ourselves? For some, maybe walking towards the rubbish bin is like doing a 400m sprint. I cant blame some, as living here in Singapore has become a luxury. You can have about just anything that you want with just a snap of the fingers. If you dont get it, COMPLAIN! What else is there to do?
Complaining is every Singaporean's fauvorite hobby. I swear, people here feed on complains. It just makes them happy. And the purpose of complaining to them is not for getting the better service, but in hope of getting freebies from the poor company. We have to live past this mindset as it really creates a bad image for us. Encouraging this behavior also is not healthy for the younger ones. Kids start complaining to get the things they want.
For example, they start using their maids to do chores for them. If poor Fatimah, the maid do not do as little 9 year old Jim says, they will just complain to mummy. Of course Fatimah does not want this to happen as this may result in being deported back and end up owing a pile of cash to the agency. So this means Fatimah has to treat Jim, only a 9 year old, as if he is the king. Its just plain disgusting if you picture it. Forget about relying on the older ones to set the example as most of them are to proud of themselves or some just cant be bothered. To them, they paid an amount of money to the agency and they deserve what they have paid for and forgetting all the aspects of morals and ettiquetes.

Plan For The Weekend
Tonight, will be Jasmin's b'day, she is holding some kind of party/gathering at sentosa. Will be going down with Kota in the evening. Im in a dilemma in weather to bring her something or not. 1st of all, im bad at buying someone presents. 2nd of all, I think she is very picky about this things. So to be on the safe side, I better not buy anything. Well, maybe get her a bottle of non-alcoholic red wine a.k.a. carbonated grapefruit juice stuffed in an expensive looking bottle and you have to open it like a champagne. My Goodness, the world is full of pretentious shit. Its just grapefruit juice damn it!
Saturday evening, a 100 k/m ride with Kenny. All around Singapore together with other bikers from SMBF. Honestly, I have not been getting ready for this. I wanted to train this past few days, but Im down with the flu/fever. Lack of motivation together with my lazy body, its just not goign anywhere. I just hope that on Saturday the ride will be a slow and steady one. If not, trust me, I will bail!

Pouring Rain
What's more interesting in a bike ride than heavy pouring of the rain? Seriously. It just HAD to be right when I wanted to try and do a 100 km. Only at the 1st km, it started to rain already. Lightning and thunder was playing like a song that you hate that keeps on repeating itself.
*Fun Fact about me: I'm scared of lighting. really scared. really REALLY scared! You want to know why? Because, the fact is that lightning strikes the tallest object on the area that it strikes. If you have an open field, it will go for the lonely tree stuck in the corner, right? Right, so the problem now is that, I'm always the tallest amongst my buddies or whoever I go out with. So yeah, this is stupid, I always thought that I'll be the one who is going to be nature's next victim :D I know it's silly, but it has never grown out of me.
Back to my attempt on 100km, it didn't happen. I was drenched under pouring rain with thunder and lightning right on top of me and not forgetting the one that stroke on a forested area nearby. A couple of traffic lights stopped functioning and I'm still cycling. I passed by Kranji MRT and decided to make a pit-stop. At this point of time, I have already cycled about 15km. Its still so far away from my goal. After about an hour waiting for the rain to stop and of course it did not, I decided to just go for it and head for Tiong Bahru and meet up with the guys. Upon reaching there, I didnt feel that I had enough, so I went ahead and cycled somemore going to Dempsey Rd to visit the guys at Hacienda.
It total that night, 61km + soaked up socks + broken back light worth $40 + hella of an experience.

Cycling Again
Recently Ive been back to my hobby, cycling. The feeling is awesome. The intense feeling I get trying to complete the hill Im going up. The wind blowing in my face going over 40km/h downhill. The places I get to visit after each completed ride. And the good times I get to spent with my cycling buddy. Each completed ride is an experience, some good, some bad. Some are worth laughing about, most are worth having my middle finger up in the air. *Bloody taxi and bus drivers!
On The Way Back To Kenny's, Pit Stop at Bugis *Notice My Jersey and the Bank
The Next Day @ Kenny's Place. Had a Nice Swim Before Heading Back Home. About 25km ride Back to Woodlands. I Was Dragging Myself To Do It. The Hot Sun Was Crazy.
Ready For a Ride to Tiong Bahru
At East Coast Park With Kenny, Clocked In at a Total of 45km

Dan Sebernarnya
Oh bulan
enggan melayan diriku lagi
pabila
airmata membasahi pipi
dah lagu lagu di radio
seolah olah memerli aku
pabila
kau bersama yang lain
dan sebenarnya
aku rindu
dan sebenarnya
dan sebenarnya
aku tak mampu
tanpamu.
enggan melayan diriku lagi
pabila
airmata membasahi pipi
dah lagu lagu di radio
seolah olah memerli aku
pabila
kau bersama yang lain
adakah perasaan benci ini
sebenarnya cinta
yang masih
bersemadi untukmu
dan sebenarnya ku mengharapkan
disebalik senyuman mu itu
kau juga
merindui aku
ku enggan
berpura pura ku bahagia
ku enggan
melihat kau bersama si dia
oh ku akui cemburu
mula menular dalam diri
pabila
kau bersama yang lain
pabila kau merenung matanya
ku rebah
jatuh ke bumi
disaat kau benar benar mahu pergi
seperti
ku bernafas dalam air
dan sebenarnya
aku rindu
dan sebenarnya
dan sebenarnya
aku tak mampu
tanpamu.

I was eating it happily at home and she had to open her mouth, "Mama, adik stole that kropok from the shop just now". Walau eh! It was her plan to begin with. And plus, cant she at least let me finish it?? Yeah, I got a hell of a spanking from my mum. She used laundry hanger to whack me.
