Last post of 2007!

The last sunrise of 2007, it's a pretty one.

Kallang MRT cat, damn shiok~!

Eh... don't kachiao me~! I am shy, and I want to sleep!

Fleeting sunshine ride

Saw blue sky and sunshine in the afternoon for the first time in weeks, I immediately grabbed my bike out to the trails. But in my haste I must have brought boobs instead of my usual marbles, because I discovered that I had no balls when faced with all those muddy, slippery up and downslopes, must be the severe lack of training... Instead I got to notice all the nice little details on the trail. Until the thunder and lightning stole my attention and forced me out of the forest, with me praying that my plastic-and-Styrofoam helmeted head doesn't suit the taste of lightning clouds above, waiting to cook anything that it liked...

I was wondering how the bicycle magazines manage to photograph bicycles standing up on their own, seemingly with some invisible supports... After flipping through Photoshop for Dummies, I present my very own floating bicycle photo~

Rain me crazy~

The constant rainy weather has been getting on my nerves... Every morning I'll wake up to nice blue skies only to see the storm clouds move in just as lunchtime approaches... It's depressing to see the blue skies and sunshine fade into dull grey clouds and un-abating rain. Especially so when it's been affecting my day-to-day activities... Let's listen to some nice sunshine to warm up the atmosphere~ 静茹's 三吋日光~!

Questioning your's truly...

Does sincerity really exist? What is sincerity? What does it embody? What does it include? Does sincerity equate to honesty? Does sincerity really pay off? Is it worth it? Is sincerity really still relevant in today's society? I don't know man... Just be quiet, like my shadow, and act blur...

I'm 1st~!

I think the Compare People voting thingy in Facebook is rigged, controlled by some unknown dark force lurking in some dark evil place... Man, I'm 1st in singing? I have good hair? That turf of lallang grass on my head? Yeah let's sing in celebration tonight! I'll join my choir of froggies in the field... *croak*

Miss Froggy

Found this fabulously fat froggy on the pavement in the light rain on the way home after work... She was almost run over by a bicycle when she refused to bulge out of the way~! Was thinking of keeping her in that disused fish tank in my balcony, so I cupped her in my hands and carried her home. But after seeing her scratching at the glass trying to get out, looking at me with those eyes, making little squeaky sounds, my heart started getting soft... she belongs to the wild wild outdoors, since she grew up out there... Brought her to the patch of field downstairs, where many many frogs and toads can be heard croaking, and kissed her goodbye (french kiss...)... Disappointingly she didn't turn into a beautiful princess... Man... Enchanted really is only a fairytale~

Worst Case Scenario

What's worse than getting flipped over the handlebar of a bike?
Peeling the plaster off a wound in an area full of leg hair... Hell~!

My Char Siew Bao!

Never knew a lonkang can look this spectacular! This is a feed drain into Lower Pierce Reservior, and it looks like those white-water rapids machiam seen in New Zealand tourist brochures haha! Nice to sit on the side listening to the sounds of gushing water. When leaving the place, the transition from the ferocity of the water noise to peaceful forest sounds of crickets and birds seemed surreal, such is the contrast. Quite special~

Crashed twice at BT trail today, a record number of crashes in one day in a long long time. Really lacked exercise, been lazy these couple of weeks, lack of sleep is another excuse... my second crash was pretty spectacular! I was getting over-confident after managing to go through a twisty and rough downhill section without braking, following some techniques that I saw in a biking video, until I tried to repeat it on the next section. I hit some loose rocks while turning and got thrown over my handlebars; sprained my right hand and brazed my left arm while trying to break my fall, and banged my shin on the same rocks which downed me in the first place. Quite funny to see this aunty who saw me crash in front of her, and continued to pluck her leaves, while I laid down to groan for a couple of minutes... I limped home with this little char siew pao on my shin. Definitely not my first though... Nice to crash once in a while, it's Nature's way of showing who's the big boss~ This crash made me late for ZW's and Marshal's birthday dinner, luckily those old boys didn't get mad at all... I discovered how nice HK ice yuan yang is! Not too late at all~!
