another ordinary week....

i noticed a rise in the number of pple checking this out every sunday..man, have i become so predictable? lets recap, i got a heineken on my table, just came back from a run and am bloggin. holy fark. soon, i'll have a belly and start farting for fun.

monday was spent at rosli's again...my mechanic if ur in the dark. spent the whole night locating and fixing up the reason for my vara's choking. and worse still, one of the spark plug is misfiring. anyway, fixed it up temporarily and round two of public transport is coming up tmr. i miss the bike b4 i even lose it.

striking viking is in town too! he's one of my online idols in the motorcycling world. He's in a round the world (RTW) trip with a BMW 650 Dakar fitted for a round the world ordeal. he's just finished rounding up Borneo and is the first person to do it in a motorcycle..Congrats! I hope i can see him tmr. My frens are already in touch with him and one of them is stripping his bike for servicing tmr. i hope i can make it there b4 i go to rosli's.

he really writes very darn well and notes, with wide eyed curiousity and comprehension of an american out for the truth, all the social and political commentary of lands he visited. The described the smells and and sights of India so well that i can imagine myself vividly there. his understanding of the jews and palestinians locked in battle during his visits also showed why the media at large are greatly exaggerating and pulling opinions of the americans towards a dangerously patriotic display of power over the region. and hilariously describing smiling and overtly curious pakistanis poring over his bike in the villages and cities as militants mauling him and his beast.
in short, he's one of the reasons why i yearn to be a motorcycle adventure travel writer. looking at my past blogs, i think i might have a better chance in my next life.

...home is where the front of my wheel is - Striking Viking

if ur really interested in his journals, his webbie is www.strikingviking.net. or check out the rides section in www.adventurerider.com.

another major event is the SAJC alumni dinner yesterday. i initially didn't wanna go cos it's really expensive but im glad i did. it's great to see all the past teachers again. some change, some become hipper, some became principals but all are still as dedicated to teaching as they were 7 years back. wats more, it great to see old pals and the bloody goondus we spent 2 years of our transitional adulthood times with. and oh, the food sucks.

the clowns in us were wondering if the drink stall auntie and the black bra auntie were also there and where the hell marimuthu was. we wanted to see if the hair coming out his ears reached the ground by now. and boo, winny, ashtray and yh went to fulfil their teenage dream by smoking at the jacob ballast area..muahahaha...

a pity stefanie sun and JJ lin wasn't there although i saw junyang from the superstar show. man, one heineken really has no effect at all...mabbe it's time for another......
