played mahjong and cards til about 4plus in the morning.. and came back home sleep.. before heading out at 10am for meal at dad's stall and to future scootering to have my scooter done.. was there the whole afternoon from 11plus til 5plus and many many things done to my lovely 2 wheels.. from changing belts, rollers, u shoe, brake pads, tyres, bulbs, switch and bearing.. and also adding hella horn which now sounds super loud!!


mechanic in action!


front tyre gone..


rear tyre too..


taking out everything..


in front too..

and i am satisfied with the job done.. and the after service they offer.. which certainly makes me wanna go back to have my scooter done in future.. and thanks to the mechanic who spent his whole afternoon doing my vespa and also travelling out to source for my spare parts.. and also taking out the front cover for 3 times because of some wiring failure..

its new year eve and going to watch fireworks later.. and i have been so busy with my vespa these few days and i have yet to think of any resolution for 2008 and recaps for 2007.. but certainly a fruitful and enriching year with new experiences and encounter.. (;'

HAPPY NEW YR in advance! (((;'

Friday a great night after work as we went maxell to have dinner before heading down to Legend Pub for drinks and karaoke.. and some chit chat session with Jen, Javier and Kenny.. with the hand game of tortise tortise jump! and loser have to drink.. and all of us laughing at each other.. then went for supper with Javier before heading back home.. and siam-ed amk ave 5.. as there was road block.. as tipped off by kenny..

Saturday.. an eventful day.. with classmates coming to my house for vege steamboat in the afternoon.. and as usual.. many were late.. super late.. and had a great time bonding and singing and eating.. til about 3plus when all have to leave as i have to go for work.. hmmm.. all had fun with the gift exchange too.. and appreciate the boxers jasmin gave me.. ((;'

then chiong down to work in town and weather seems superbly good.. then it drizzle a bit in the expressway and i don't care as i am reaching soon.. but it got super heavy.. so stopped in the tunnel and gear myself in raincoat and continue the last short journey.. SIAN!

then work was pretty okay.. last 2nd day already.. and some pictures taken..


at the traffic light..


at shaw..


DBS sticker..

and the last stop was heeren.. and it was drizzling.. so i stopped my bike in the traffic light and keep my camera.. and my bike couldnt start.. so quickly push it to one side and the rest continue back.. and kenny came to rescue me.. and we manage to kick start after several tries.. and back to cine.. and the problem continues.. and my brakelight signal light and fuel meter could not work.. but still head down to Piaggio for the scooter newbie meet with the help of fern looking after me from the back..

then reached Piaggio and sent my bike to the back to charge the battery as we suspect is weak batt.. not much mood there at Piaggio liao.. so ate.. and mingle with fellow vesporeans.. and lucky draw prizes.. didnt have much luck.. but was nice catching up..

so after the event.. went to install the batt again.. but failed.. to the mechanics came down and check and it was the fuse which blow.. so they gave me new one.. and manage to start.. and thanks to Momo and fern.. has trouble them much.. and also VCS who waited for me before we head off to elsewhere.. and also the mechanics which resolve the issue..

then went jalan kayu for supper.. and my bike was alright.. then chiong back home take passport before heading to JB for petrol with Javier and Jen.. and at Spore customs.. i off the engine and slowly push as there was heavy slow traffic.. and realise i was unable to start.. so me and Javier kick start like hell but unable to start.. and we were sweating like hell.. so push to the bike lots in front.. and tried changing batt.. so concluded it was my battery failure.. so the custom pple lend us the quickstarter.. but failed too.. so borrowed power from a car there.. and manage to start my engine.. finally! we were at the customs for abt an hour or more cos of my faulty batt.. and thanks for the kind souls around me who were so helpful..

then went in JB and look for bike shop to replace a new dry cell.. and Jen went to pump petrol first.. hmmm.. then manage to find a shop with reasonable price so we decided to change batt there.. and waited for them to charge the new batt.. and everything was smooth.. and me and javier went to pump our petrol after that.. and it was about 2plus in the morning already.. so headed back to Spore and off to our home.. everyone was tired..

But saw Javier and Jen still online when i am home til 4plus in the morning when i was on the phone.. and buaytahan.. and went to sleep.. have to really thanks a lot of people for the help they gave me... owe them lots for this xmas! and i wonder if i didnt join vespa club.. i will be some muddlehead scooterist asking for tow truck everytime.. hahaha..

going to work later on and VCS bbq.. last day of the santarina job already.. and hope my bike will stay strong.. haha..

super cute movie suitable for everyone.. cute little squeeeky voice and songs they have.. and very touching storyline about how they caused trouble and sucess for a man.. and how strong the bond was between them.. and all about.. being together.. as a family.. a must watch! ((;'

have been eating and not exercising to scissor off the fats accumulating.. and also with the bad weathers nowadays.. not good for running..

hmmmm.. sometimes.. taking bus/MRT is a better thing than riding.. as you could spend more time together talking.. listening to mp3 and sleeping...

Final Year Presentation today.. and it was raining in the morning.. so i skipped morning classes.. and continue sleeping to make sure i look superb in the afternoon for the presentation.. hmmm.. went to packet lunch and i reached sch at 12plus.. and began preparing and changing.. and had our final rehearsing of our speech and stuffs..


me and regina! i am ready and she's not..


xinying.. keep on reciting her part..


gin confirming and browsing her part of the project..

and at 315pm.. capt savio and capt ashok came in shortly.. one after another and we began our presentation.. the ambience was quite tense.. and interuptted by ashok's phone call halfway.. and everything goes on smoothly.. with some of us leaving out some part and stumble when we speak.. and this was unavoidable.. as everyone was nervous.. then was the q n a.. and there was not much qn.. and managed to answer and convinced them.. the best part was to hear that it was a well done project and they will keep the report.. lol.. and they said they learn something from it too.. hahah.. was very very glad to hear that.. our efforts appreciated.. and also thanks for the wishes by many people before presentation..

after tt.. got changed and left school for town to meetup with my classmates.. and had sub-way and walked around town a while.. and i dunno what was i thinking that time when i didnt ride my vespa to town.. and followed them to take bus.. and taking bus back to sch to collect my scooter.. but nevermind.. its over..

hmmm.. though FYP is finally over at last.. dun feel much difference or relax.. there is still marketing project due in a few days time.. and school term is ending..

and one thing which really make me feel.. ARGHHH.. is about forgetting to buy 4D! i got 3 set of numbers generated by me and jw.. and we intend to buy today.. but i forgot to buy.. and if i buy.. usually i will buy ibet $1 each.. but i totally forgot to buy after the presentation.. and one number was the first prize.. and the other was starter! SIGH! no fate with luck and wealth this time.. but hope its a good sign for another thing..

was watching the last 20mins of soccer just now and singapore got whack 3-0 by thailand.. the stamina is still not there yet as far as i can see.. hmm.. and i switched channels and saw the highlights of the SEA games.. and some of them arrived in singapore.. and they began interviewing some of them.. watching watching and i heard MO YIN REN.. a very familiar name.. my primary school fren and when he was interviewed him.. i double confirm its him! Mok Ying Ren was same primary school as me and i still remember him.. a strong swimmer who rep our sch.. and also a very fast runner.. always came in 1st for our 1.6km run during PE lesson and nafa test.. he was quite intelligent too.. and never expect him to be part of team singapore.. then i went online and search for his info.. and realise he is trial-athon-ist.. running swimming and cycling and he clinched gold medal for the sea games.. well done pri-sch mate.. i maybe have photos when we were young but i am damn sure i have your info written that time in my autograph book.. hahha.. those were the days where its only 1.6km run and the autograph book craze..

tml's my Final Year Project Presentation.. like finally.. evryone's over except my group.. and we were busying rehearsing and preparing for it this few days in school.. and hopefully everything will go on smoothly tml.. i dun wish to flop it.. as we have work so hard for this day.. and after tml.. can RELAX already!! wheeeeee...

Completed my first Full Marathon in 8hours.. an acheivement for me! and i ran the like hell..

for this metal medal


and this tshirt..


hmmm.. woke up at 3am in the morning today.. and went to have my powerbar for breakfast.. and went to fetch leong.. and headed to city hall.. and we began preparing ourself for the run.. and we flagged off at 530pm.. and there is this super duper funny sight u can always see.. guys running to the bushed.. to PEE! and i find it damn funny.. hmm.. so i ran with xinying at a very slow and steady pace.. but her leg started to pain due to yesterday's injuries.. and we stopped a while before continue running.. then i ran without her at esplande area.. and began my run til east coast where i 'hit the wall' and my legs couldnt take it.. walking is also damn jialat as u feel ur muscle super tight.. stretching and applying deep heat is not very useful too.. but i manage to perserve.. and met xy again at the east coast u-turn and she ran without me at fort road.. so i walked quite a long distance hoping the distance will jump faster.. and jog a bit here and there.. and saw peixuan halfway and walked with her before i ran my last lap to the finishing point..

inspiring run.. where u see people from all walks of life.. old to young running for a different reason.. and inspired by different people.. and the runsparator.. cheering and giving it all out.. just to motivate the runners.. and the volunteers.. just to make sure we are quite safe.. and on the right track.. you see friends pushing each other.. couples motivating each other.. strangers encouraging each other.. that is the sporting sprit!

the first full marathon will lead to the next and so on..
