She Bangs-Ricky Martin

Ricky is GAY!!!Tell me what's new!!!




Wanted Dead Or Alive-Bon Jovi

yesterday,

we had the time of our lives,with my fellow colleagues,my dear bosses included,who took time,effort to join us and also chipped in more than 3quarter of the actual day pass tickets,and honestly,we sure had a fun loving time.

although the main attraction ride-the outdoor killer roller coaster-battlestar galactica human & cyclone rides were down,but we made sure we had the money worth-we tried every single damn rides and shows and my personal faves-the Revenge of the Mummies indoor roller coaster and Shrek's interactive 4D show.
one whole day-from morning all the way till closing time,with beryani combo meal break in between,we really went all out!even the rain didn't stopped us!and we were soaked in sweat and water splashed onto us during the jurassic water ride and wet or not we still continued,plucking enough courage to brave the steel rails and adrenaline rush rides.even the innocent looking rides made my stomach curl at times.

i screamed a lot,hell lot.i screamed so much my head was throbbing,but it all went away quick,i had real good time,and i am looking forward to the next trip to Universal Studios Sentosa!

Battlestar Galactica,someday real soon i'll ride those badboys,Fo Shizzle!

Pride-U2


first timers!

it was a perfect sunday morning,the usually quiet sleepy bedok reservoir was awoken by the chants and beatings of the drums of the racing dragon boats on its murkish dark green water.
it was my first time rowing,and i somehow could not fit into the already seasoned crowd of fit paddlers,i felt odd,i have no experience whatsoever in dragon boating and already i'm participating this race.but i wasn't alone,Nazir was just like me too.

we had a warm up session before the race,a briefing and last minute crash course for me and nazir,listening attentively and tried absorbing all that they taught.

and when it's time for us to race,i was already in high spirits,trying to execute the methods i was earlier given.when the airhorn was sounded,i didn't looked elsewhere,i just paddled,as hard and as fast as i could,trying to follow the beat and momentum,the boat moved gradually from stationary position to fast gliding movement,water was splashing,the mixed confusion rhythm and it all happened so quick that we finally crossed the finishing line.
yes we didn't win,but more importantly it was a good experience for us,especially me.
now i'm all burnout,but it was hella fun!

Three Lil Birds-Bob Marley & The Wailers




i took the advantage of my 'fitter,happier' Debbie Gibson & went somehow insanely fast & furious on the highway all the way to downtown Orchard & upon arrival i noticed that we were early.wow!
met up with my wife's colleagues,exchanging fake smiles & firm gentleman handshakes,we then switched into the earth hour tees,waited for the rest and soon once everybody gather together,the troops of young & old,which made up of about 30 odd folks marched slowly towards Esplanade.

the route,was a series of twists,turns and long winding path lead by folks in front who obviously have no idea which way they were going,but i actually enjoyed the walk,though i could have reached the destination faster if to pick my own route.

we chat and laugh,poked fun and once we reached the place,we took pictures and they told us to go and have a walkabout and to come back before 8.30pm to witness the power shutdown.
but it didn't happened.hmm what i meant was we walked all the way to city hall,bought some stuffs during window shopping.and after a long time searching,my wife was jumping with joy she finally got a Megatron for her collection.and we just stopped midway and decided NOT to return back and watch the entire thing.

so that's it,we took the train back,alighted at Dhoby ghaut,a short stroll and back to the carpark,jumped onto the scoot and made a quick dash to the skateshop in bukit timah;helped myself to a nice tee,pair of berms & a wallet,got free stuffs and hop back onto the scoot and got back home.
yes,just like that,we abandoned the Earth Hour idea and gone AWOL.but hey c'mon if we wanna save the earth,we should consider of NOT harming it every single time,not just an hour!
sounds 'cheapo' but at least i got my Earth hour tee!and those free stuffs in the pix!Word!

gotta rest now,dragon boat race tomorrow!WHOA!

Welcome To The Jungle-Guns & Roses

i was awoken by the sound of the irritating alarm at 6am this morning,and while the rest of the world still embracing their bolsters and hiding faces underneath their pillows,i had to force myself up & stagger my way to the washroom.

i reported to work at 7am,performed my duty well today,executing tasks & handling difficult and very demanding guests today,and although i was enraged deep within,i was tolerant and kept my cool and when it's all over,i left the workplace.

preparing myself now,with the wardrobe sliding door ajar,looking at my colorful,nicely arranged clothes,and the problem that i'm tackling;hey which one to wear now?and that is what i always face each time i draw the wardrobe.

we're participating the Earth hour community effort with Minerva's Bodyshop gang later,and they gonna kicked off the whole thing from their office at Winsland house and march all the way to Padang,where we all gonna witness the an-hour-long power shutdown at 8.30pm,and since i don't have much to do today,i might just join this fun thing,and it's not everyday we see the skyscrapers in the city without those funky lights.

Earth Hour with the Saturday Heroes!

Shine On-The Tunics

it's really a,very sleepy thursday,we were all blessed with heavy downpour but it made me difficult to travel on road on the two wheelin' scoot so i think i'm not gonna ride Bella to work tomorrow & choose Debbie Gibson instead as it's more reliable on wet roads.

Bella is all good now,but i just need to get a anti rust heatspray as rusts building up on the exhaust areas,but other than that it's looking awesome.and it costs $135 for the tow,repair,and a new mudguard swap,it really look so much better now.

got myself a cool vespa mod emblem from a dude that sold it online but i hooked it up from his place at yio chu kang road earlier.looked too cool to stick it on Bella.hmm contemplating on this interesting lil thingy...

Funkytown-Lipps Inc


the rain deterred me from sending my lovely wife to work earlier this morning,it was raining real heavy that i had to quit my intention of riding in the rain,got back home,made meself comfortable on the floor and dozed off for about two hours.
by then it was perfectly alright,the pour subsided,put on my globe jacket and hit the road,feeling the after rain taste together with the cold wind blowing in my face and reached my destination where i filled up the application form for renewal of passport,stuck my recent photo onto it,stapled together the receipt and slot in the box,oh how easy,no more long queues,no hassle,just straightforward method and boom baam i'm done,and another 3 working days till they send me a snail mail,and time for collection soon.

i got to the workshop a lil while,just to check my vespa,and i got back ebok's place for lunch with valencia vs almeria re run on the tube.dashed to work and only to find out that my mudguard is all painted and ready for installation,so i jumped onto Debbie my X9 scooter and rushed back to the workshop,only this time round the old tech had this stunned looked on his face,i had to apologised but he was too quick to smile,so i left it all to him,and as i glanced Bella was good to go,only some dark oil patches smearing the body,hey it's alright!

tomorrow my day off,i'm going back to the workshop to claim what is mine,and ride the city streets once again!

Let It Buck!

Time-Pink Floyd

i woke up late this morning,an hour and half late but good thing everything was ran good by colleagues at work,got all our things done quickly and we watched the day went by and by the time we knew it was already time for us to leave and i've already made plans with my wife at home,to fetch her quick and made a dash down to serangoon north for a cat show,and as i left in a haste i looked over my shoulders,dark clouds were already forming but i just moved on and started the vespa,the need for speed has already racing in me,and by the time i hit the main road,it was already drizzling which developed into a heavier drizzle and i have no shield on my face except for my shades,the rain piercing the flesh,i was drenched in cold hard rain,it was pouring heavily,i revved the throttle after a junction turning into tampines town,and that's when i felt something was odd,i was speeding but i felt drifting,i could not feel the brakes,Bella was dangerously uncontrollable,i could not see anything on the rear view mirror,the rain impaired my visual,PANIC!it struck me,i was unsure whether i was thinking straight,my mind could not coordinate with my senses,i was swaying,wobbling,i was real sure i was gonna crash and then knocked down & rolled by the vehicles behind me,i could not feel a thing,i thought i was goin' down,until...i put a grip on myself,tried to pull the brakes but still it was swaying,cars and trucks zoomed past me,mixture of raindrops and coldsweat running down my face,gotta do something!stop this quick!focus!FOCUS!FOCUS!!!
if it wasn't divine intervention then it was simply incredible,i should have been someplace i never intend to be,at high speed,in split seconds,on totally wet slippery road,and the brakes insupportive,with quick reaction but was quite reluctant and unsure i placed both foot on the hard tar,trying to control the machine,bringing it back to balance pressurizing and sacrificing my white adidas stan smith and ignoring all the fast vehicles behind me.and by the sweet name of God,i managed to stop the italian,and due to shock i was still revving the throttle as i stood up and turned around and watched all impending danger avoiding me as i pushed the scooter from the center of the road to the side,put it on stand and inspecting and saw my rear tyre was flat.for moments,i stood in the rain,with no shelter and the rain poured over me,i was in a miserable state,even the mobile phone was wet and my Armani Exchange shades was broken.
i was still in disbelieve and in total state of shock.those folks in the cars all turned around to look at me,in the rain,with a flat tyre in front of a big field and no shelter except for a tiny tree beside me.i dial up a friend for a lift but he was occupied with stuffs which gave me no choice but to push the scooter all the way to a gas station which was about 500 metres away,i can't call the tow truck they charge crazy charges on sundays and holidays,had no choice,oh boy it was real heavy,i was panting and it really drained down my energy,and i had to stop numerous times,reload some power and push it slowly to the gas station and when i got there i tried to fill her up with air,but after countless times i was convinced that there's a punctured hole somewhere.the weather by then turned from wet to pure sizzling heat.i pushed Bella to a carpark opposite the station,emptied all my stuffs into the helmet carrier,peeled an overnighter coupon and left the place,left me no choice but to call the tow truck tomorrow.after about 10 minutes walk,the loving wife then came along fetching me on her cute green Picanto.

but still,i'm a very fortunate guy.
Phew,Thank God i was alright!

Jailbreak-Thin Lizzy

i woke up to a perfect setting,cool room temperature but i'm snugged to the warmth of the bed,pillows spread comfortably around,my other half in total snooze mode & outside it was dim,with clattering of raindrops on the hard ground.it must have been raining for awhile now as the air con unit is switched off & i felt shivers right to the bones.

happy.i'm humming.
'Go Shawty,It's Your Birthday!'

yeah the big 33 today-big smile on the big boy.i took the liberty to take the day off ,and there's pretty much nothing much to do back at work,and ever since i stepped out of the office,colleagues already wishing me 'Happy Birthday Sam!'and even part timers who were rushing to their stations waved and screamed the same..yes it's hard to keep it a secret nowadays,yeah facebook really connects us all i must say.


yeah now that's my cool birthday gift my beloved angel hid underneath the bed.it's an Adidas Ransom.i love it!white,canvas,hi-top killer!can't wait to slip into those pairs and hit the wet pavements,monnwalkin' all the way to ang mo kio,yo!thank you my love for this beautiful pair of three stripes!whoa!

Fight The Power-Public Enemy

Wild Thing-Tone Loc


it was blazing hot earlier & suddenly the weather turned maniacal-raining cats & dogs as i type this,and halting my intention of riding on my beautiful Bella home,and in this kind of weather it's best to stay warm and dry and not to be on the wet slippery roads,i'll hang a lil longer..

and there's the Carrefour consumer sale at my workplace and i've been eyeing the $6.90 'convoluted' pillow..oh yes it said 'convoluted',and nevertheless among the rest that particular pillow that i like was neither too hard nor too soft,it got spikes like foams and sure feel comfortable,i'm gonna get it later,only thing,the wife will disagree as we already owned lotsa pillows on the bed,and each time we hitting the sack,we only use one pillow and a bolster each and kick the rest down onto the floor.and the price is right too,too cheap & good.

we had a family day event that we run yesterday and earlier this morning too,and all my colleague already murmuring complains that the weather is burning us all and we are all so dark now due to the prolong heat working under the sun,even soaking ourselves in the pool doesn't really help that much.


me on the mike with the guys from the army.

the crew,from left-my boss Wai fong and colleague ah hui who also double up as Djs,myself,Larry and Fadli.

oh yeah,we had amazing fun....

Poison-Alice Cooper



feel good.
i was given a pair of movie tickets,was treated to a free drink by a good colleague & another good soul gave away a brand new bicycle tire tube and friends fixed & replaced it for me.i sat for two hours at the meeting room,only to realise at the end of it that boss has forgotten me for my weekly submission report.maybe i'm invisible..
if only every single monday is like this,life would be so much better.
thankful,yes i'm proud to say that out loud,that i'm grateful to all those people who's been so nice to me today.you folks really brighten up the day.

less than a week and i'm in for my big 33 suprise,oh boy time really flies.
in the picture below 3 good friends with big smiles on scooters last thursday evening.although we met for mere 2 hours,and we had not met for quite some time,we still could enjoy each other's company-the bond-the force is strong among us still..poking fun at each other,laughing our heads and nuts off.but the meeting was short and God knows when we'll see each other again.

Paint It Black-Rolling Stones

waiting & waiting and each time i glanced at my wristwatch it seems not budging,day's real slow and we still have hours to go before we could leave the workplace,we had a massive setup yesterday & today's event the expected crowd which we all expected,however only a quarter turned up,but we're not bothered by that,only waiting for the time to come and we could keep and arrange the props back to the respective storage rooms,and return back to our nests and spend the rest of the remaining sunday with our loved ones.



dude.
i just got the itch & already i'm feeling anxious and all excited each time i thought of surfing the concrete streets again.the new skatepark at east coast,it looked so desirable and i really wanna be in those skateshoes and ride the board again.but time is an issue to me,half of the time i'm occupied with work & the other half trying every single bit with the wifey.
but i gotta do this..quickly mate!even if i gotta do this alone-i'll do it!

C'mon Let's Get Inspired!

Radio Gaga-Queen

it's way past midnite & the keyboard clatter each time i run & hit my fingers on it;
my eyes real tired but i could not sleep and i was real uncomfortable to try to read a book at this state,my mind could not coordinate properly-i need a rest,desperately-but my body still in active restless mode,oh boy here we go again..

water is dripping from the air con unit again as i'm doing this,but let's pretend that never happen and i continue to compose this.

tomorrow is the starting of a week school holiday,hmm...again and yes i'm back in business-it's that busy period again with lotsa events and shows to run-in fact,we have plenty of things to do,we can't even confirm what time can we knock off from work tomorrow,i do hope we won't overrun trying to complete our tasks till night,and seriously i don't plan to.and also due to all this mad rush at work-i will miss 2 separate birthday parties & a wedding.

and sunday i gotta be at work by 7.30am i heard-and most of the roads leading to my workplace is closed due to some Run or something and i might be late due to this,i really don't want any of that too.



ohh glam rock so cool

Bad Romance-Lady Gaga

my i'm all tanned,bad to certain folks but personally i don't really give a hoot coz i enjoyed every lil bit of sun at the sea just by my workplace yesterday we were having a swell time,riding and paddling,the sun and whatever beneath the murky dark green waters below didn't really bothered us,the 6 of us on 3 separate canoes battled the course of tidal waves and currents all the way to coney island which was quite an achievement among some of us,who were first timers to that abandoned island littered with countless garbage along the coastline.

we hope we could canoe more often,and already i'm making plans out of our busy schedule,and it's way easier as we are all belong to the same department,but it couldn't be sometime next 2 weeks as the busy period,bloody school holidays are just around the corner again.

it's sunday again,and already the wifey told me she's reluctant to go out if i'm heading to the flea mart again,oh man!where else to go if not the flea mart on sundays?

the sneaky part of me already checking out bukit timah nature reserve on the web and i thought it'll be sweet if i could check out the old quarry there later,and a quick jump or two won't hurt,i suppose..heee..just a rough plan since we have no plans anywhere today.but i got that strong feeling the plan will be rejected by the all-conservative queen.
hmmmmm.......

5 Minutes Alone-Pantera

i've been brainwashed by the missus of the daily dosage of 'Police Academy' and at times when i was idling i kept whistling the theme tune on my lips.
my lips,talking about it i was elbowed accidentally by her yesterday morning,and blood soon foamed in my mouth,ohh what a breakfast,and now it felt weird,there was a lump and my tongue kept running back and forth on it,but it's healing quick,oh yes.



we just got back from our monday Sirah session with bro bani,and i must say there's already a strong followers of different creed and gen attending the class,and as always,his methods of delivering is as wonderful as ever.

and right after the session,we rode on Bella to Boon Keng for the delicious 'soup kambeng' supper which cost us $10.a bit too pricey isn't it?

Bella.
Oh yes,i kept forgetting,and only this afternoon i managed to take a picture of her after our lunch @ Simpang Bedok.& not too nice background but here it is..

Tadaa!
