U turns in GPS

Dear readers, if you happen to have a GPS device, using M*pKi*g as your GPS OS, becareful.

Don't be surprised that you will receive lots "letters" from the traffic police, if you use the routing system, and always miss the turnings.

Coz, in that software, all intersection are able to do U turns, while in reality, not all juctions can do U turns.

So, well, think about that...

NIght Cycling

Last friday nite. 3 crazy guys got together to do some crazy stuffs. Something that i had never imagined myself doing. First time doing it somemore...

Night cycling. Whole night cycling.

Though the distance is not that great, (as compared to NTU round island cycling) from East Coast to Changi Village and back, it still seems a great distance to covered, especially for old ppl like me.

Especially when the 3 crazy guys (ZX, AB and me) did not have sufficient rest and was quite tired even before the cycling, and it's been ages since i last touch a bicycle.

Crazy, ain't it?

Here's the photos.

KT, which mastermind us to go for the night cycling...

The bicycles, which was rental, and not in a so-good condition. KT's bike got problem from the beginning...

A group photo taken while waiting for the "late comers"...

A group photo, minus the photographer...

And so we go...

Taking a break while waiting for the others to catch up. That was when KT's bike got problems...


No flash, long shutter speed of the scenery. It's totally dark... This was taken while we played our first game...

Our bikes...

Taking a breather...
















Playing games...

The jokers...



Having much fun...

Reached halfway point, Changi Village!!!

Nasir Lemak, here i come!!!

And after supper, basically i was not in the mood to cycle. A late night and a full stomach makes anyone tired and sleepy.

I wanna sleep.

But we still have to cycle back. The process of a long long journey... The Changi Airport perimeter fence area was the killer. A long long journey, with spiders to be seen...

Yep.. spiders...

Spotted by KT, and while the rest are taking a break,


we shot macro.




Basically, i was not in the mood to shoot. Super tired and sleepy, slowly made my way back to the finish line. My ass bore the blunt of the pain, the fats did nothing to cushion the seat.

Finally, FINISH LIAO!!!

It's so tiring that almost everyone wanna just lie down and sleep...




While AB looks like the bicycle seller... :p




So tired that someone can even sleep while sitting down...


And finally, a group photo after the whole tiring event, minue ZX, who went to shit. :P



Yep.

And i had learnt 4 lessons that night.

1) Changi beach is dominated by Malays at night.

2) JC students like to do stupid stuffs in the middle of the night.

3) When your ass is feeling pain from cycling, you might want to ease the pain by standing up on your bike, when you sit down again, it's gonna pain a lot more worse. When you are bua tahan, just get off the bike and push.

4) I managed to survive the night cycling after all.

And i was asking myself the same old questions that night...

WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WHEN I CAN BE AT HOME SLEEPING COMFORTABLY?!?!?!?!

But i am a sense of satisfaction, knowing that i can survive the event, when i myself doubt my ability to cover the whole distance before the cycling started. At least, i know my fitness level had improved.

Quarantine at Chalet

Was chatting with JM on MSN earlier, chatting about motivation, getting motivation by sleeping when the topic was changed to the swine flu, H1N1 virus, and the Singapore's goverment method on fighting against the outbreak by quarantine, using the aloha chalets.

And i got an inspiration, and thanks to JM for refining the words...

Here goes...


Got an Home Quarantine Order
An order which you must roger
An area you can't anyhow loiter
A Chalet you must enter
Go in with a fever
BBQ everynight with other HQO fellowers
come out 7 days later
end up getting cancer
It doesn't make things better


Perhaps some song can come out of this...

Go ahead, have a good laugh...

Delaying in announcement

So, it seems like Mas Selamat, the most dangerous terrorist in Singapore, some say South East Asia is being caught.

Once again.

And it seems like the Malaysia ISD had captured him on the 1st April.

And it seems like the ISD has waited for 6 weeks to make public his capture.

Might as well... If the goverment announced his capture on that day itself, i cannot imagine the outcome and the consequences...

"April fool's joke??" would be the questions of the public.
