Sorry no time to blog ... so just going to upload some photos. :) Maybe cajole sweetie into doing it later *hint hint* It was quite nice (except for some stupid crowd incident which nearly killed me) ... costs $28 each. Sorry for the poor quality of the photos, no flash allowed!! & my camera's nightmode is not that fantastic ..

Cyfora race in Melaka
This post has long been overdue ... haha, only because I've been busy working. Well, life as a pupil has not been that bad as yet ... Slightly better than I expected. But then again, apparently it's because we only have a month and the lawyers can't really give us that much work because soon enough, we'll be gone for PLC again. And it's only been 3 days since I started. Killer period will be when we return for the next 5 mths :P
Nonetheless, I feel that I've so much less time left to do anything and I only have some free time today because it's a public holiday. Even then, I need to go shopping for more comfortable shoes and more working clothes ... Anyway, looking forward to many more public holidays in the future ..
On another note, went to Melaka last Sun to watch Sweetie race!! It was my 1st time watching and it was really interesting ... especially because I was able to sit in the support car which followed the cyclists around. Most interesting part of course, was the last part approaching the finishing line. 1st group in front that broke away had say ... about 10 pple? And because Sweetie was in that group, we followed it ... cheering all the way!!! He ultimately came in 4th ... but he should have been first!!! Poorly organised and marshalled race ... poor dear~ Started sprinting too early (i.e., going all out which they do sometime near the finishing line) because there was still a huge roundabout (unknown to him) to go around instead of going straight to the finishing line .. that's when the other 3 overtook him. :P But well done!!! *hugz* Proud of him.

Many thanks to JustinA for driving his car up. I drove them back in his car after the race *grinz*
Heh, and for all those who know how lazy I am ... surprise surprise, I got a new road bicycle. Haha, I'm going to take cycling up!!! Eh, but it's seriously scary .. I got horned once last night while TRYING to cycle at 10+ pm. I panicked and felt damn scared ... some huge truck/lorry/cement mixer whatever ... Heellllllo, it was a 3 lane road and sweetie and I were taking the left most lane .. WHY did he want to squeeze with us?? The road was empty!!! But the wind blowing against you is just great :)
Note: the elite/procyclists of course cycle mostly in single file close to the pavement so that cars can actually still share the same lane with them. But I am unstable and lousy so sweetie cycled BESIDE me on the right and we took up 1 lane so that no vehicle would knock me by "accident". We have a right to though, seeing that it's illegal to cycle on pavements. :|
Video of him in action coming up!! -

lonely days in singapore without my sidekick
think this is a little overdue... -sheepish smile-
spent the last 13 days without my ever faithful buddy, sidekick, confidant and partner in crime ms pinky since she was too busy strolling the streets of western US of A. (do it, just drawl it like a nasty fi-ty yeaaaar ol' texan from the depths of dusty bowled aal la bam ma!)
its been almost two weeks of lotsa of riding, and being a slave to the shop, but pizza nights, shit talk sessions and the occassional night out with some long lost friends were definately enough to keep me sated till ms pinky gets back to Singapore. ha! we're gonna plan to have a Tourism Singapore Week when she's back, the plan is to do as many things that we normally don't do being residents of the country, like walk the streets of our forefathers, go to the zoo, the night safari, watch the beach volleyball tournament at Sentosa, stay in a hotel, etc, it'll be a last blast of wanton carefreeness for ms pinky before she starts work on the 28th!!!!
ROOOOOOAAAR!!!!

WOOT! lotsa scantily clad babes running all over the sand...
you never do quite miss people, especially your loved ones as much as when you're actually apart from each other, i definately don't feel quite so complete these days... but like they say, absence makes the heart fonder, i'm definately gotta get me one of those bungy cords with a lock on her when she's back... ciao! andiamo domani! (till we next meet!)

dodgy day in hong kong
pssssssst....
-oi mai piu mo?-
ha, galavanting the streets of hong kong as a black market ticket broker might just be my calling i tell ya, the rush, the excitement, and of course the disappointment... it was quite a blast trying to buy tickets off dodgy looking people (8/10 of them were just waiting for friends though!) in a desperate attempt to get tickets to watch:

SHOW MI! SAMMI!

damn, such a groupie, but only for the night, apparently the black tickets were sold out by 5pm, we were there at 7pm and the show started at 830pm! man alive, black market trading is a booming trade!
we got over our disappointment though, we caught the MTR to the Avenue of the Stars, posed with ol' Bruce, strolled the esplanade, caught the ferry across the Channel to Central, then took the Peak Tram up to the Peak. dead tired by the end of the day, but it definately was fun...
lycra man... ouT!!

Last part of the trip
Am in HK now and the weather is soooo HOT ... Just ended my grad trip in USA and now just finishing the rest of the trip with the parents and bf. Haha, I can't believe this ... But parents sent Dan & I to camp outside the Coliseum hoping that some black market guy will be there selling tics for Sammi Cheng tonight ... Wish us luck :)
