I know i been too lazy to update, (more like sleepy and tired).

Past 11 days, been to 2 days which last 8 days and 6 nights... That's why tired.

Anyway, that's not the aim of this post. This post is about what happened this morning in the whole bloody part of Singapore.

This morning, it rained. Heavily. Super heavily. Super duper heavily. And singapore flooded. Nah, not the whole of singapore, but more on the central singapore, like Orchard Road, Bukit Timah Road.

And i was one of the suay driver that got caught in the flood at bukit timah. The huge canal was almost to the brink, and the flow rate of the water in the canel can allow white water rafting to be done in the cancal.

It's that bad.

And the whole road was flooded, only one lane passable, as the water level ain't that high.

Yep. My car is flood proof. Proven this morning.

I never regretted never listening to my friend to adjust the cold air intake to the bumper, otherwise, my ride would die of dihydrogen oxide poisoning.

And i heard that Orchard Road was flooded very badly... prob the only way of transportation is by this...



Who says dragonboating is not good?

But i am wondering if that dragonboat got an IU unit with a cashcard inserted.

Or did the rain cause any short circuit to the ERP system?

HOT weather

Weather been trying to murder me nowadays. There's so much snow in Europe, and there's so much sun in Singapore. Can we do a partial exhange with the poor fellows who wish there's ain't so much snow fall?

"Oh shit.. it's really global warming" we said...

"What global warming?" they ask.

See the effects of the sun!!









Don't you feel hot by just looking at the photos??

ArgHHHHHHHH!!!! WHERE'S THE AIR CON REMOTE??

Tuesday nightly affair

Just received some good news yesterday with regards to myself... Hahaha.. But that good news come with some bad news, i reckon...

And did something shitty today, something which i wish i could never do, yet, i feel it's necessary to do... And hope that shitty thing would not turn to be something more shitty that needs me to clear.

It's an extremely busy week for me... more so from the past few week, which i was busy enough. Why?? boss come back from overseas trip... hahaha

And every Tuesday, it's becoming a normal routine for the 4 of us... CN, HT, TB and me... A night of driving, which requires super intense concentration, with a super high risk of getting invloved in RTA, and it involves some jam, followed by some cheap buys and a night of relaxation, eating, chatting, singing, and perhaps, some "come find trouble" on the forehead...

It's the relaxation and the food that draws the 4 of us to go back there every week. A intense day of slogging out either physically, mentally or both at work, we really need a night of relaxation. I keep looking forward to Tue day, even it means sometimes, i am going to miss my myth buster show.

And Tue has just past. Am looking forward to next Tue.

Sleepy at work

It's funny, i know...

My world has turn upside down...

But couldn't be help... Is there anything that i can do to resolve this problem??

It's something like this statement... "How come a kid who is afraid of the dark grows up to be a teenager who hangs out every whole night?"

Yep...

Night is the time when cockroaches come out and people sleep. Morning is the time when ppl rushes to work and ERP starts.

But i am feeling very sleepy in the day!! Especially when i am in the office. And after work, while driving home, i will be yawning non stop, wishing for my dear warm bed to lie in and my soft pillow to cuddle with.

But once i reach home, all signs and syndromes of sleepiness went "poof!!!" just like when a naughty kid burst a balloon with a needle.

I became wide awake. No more thoughts of my warm bed and my soft super cuddle-friendly pillow. my thoughts turn to TV, Internet and mafia wars, and more recently, BF2.

And all those thoughts will keep my mind occupied till my eyelids cannot take it anymore... that's when i will faint.

And the cycle starts again when i woke up the next day.

Beautiful Sunset

Funny weather nowadays... Bukit timah have not been flooding for a super duper long time. And yet, recently it became a swimming pool. And i think the basement carpark can be a scuba diving training center.

Singapore cars might need another feature or insurance... Flood proof. Or perhaps a miniature submarine.

But it's with the funny weather that i can capture these photos...



And a very beautiful sunset...







Don't you simply agree??

Yesterday

Ever had a sunday where you had no appointments, no plans, and absoluting nothing to do?

Just had one yesterday.

Just spend the whole day, lying down, sleeping and watching TV... Oh yes... indeed... Watching TV movies. A marathon. Movies marathon. 4, to be exact...

First is "Seabiscuit" which is a really inspirational show. One that can move ppl to tears.

Second is Jackie Chan's action movie, "Police Story III, Super Cop".

Actually, after watching the second movie, i felt like taking a nap, and out of habit, i channel surfed, and to my horror, the other channel was showing "Seoul Raider".

Decisions, decisions. Continue watching or nap??

And i hate making such decisions on such a decision-less day. Ended up deciding to watch till i sleep.

And i did not sleep. Finished watching the third movie, and the sun is getting ready to "extingiush" itself in the sea, i channel surf again, and "Finding Nemo" caught my eye.

So, i continue watching.

And after the movie end, another show captured my attention.

"Crimewatch".

So, yesterday, on such a lazy and totally unplanned day, a long which i had not enjoyed for a long long time, i spend a totally of 8.5 hours in front of the telly.

Almost the same as my working hours.

Somehow, my working hours seems much longer then yesterday.

Haiz~~~

Yesterday, all my troubles seem so far away
Now it seems they are now here to stay
Oh i believe, in yesterday.

Yesterday. Where is yesterday?

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.
