Round Island Cycling - 20/03/2008




Today is my 2nd round Island trip. I have asked Linla to come along so that she can hit her first century ride (100km) and she did. She was so excited that she bought a cycling jersey at $109. Surprised, some of my swimming mates were also there, one of them is Shutetheup.

Wow what a night. After the ride, linla and I went to have roti prata for 'breakfast'. By the time we reached home it was almost like 4.30am. Maybe thats the time my friend, Jodan will start his Longhouse ride. Hehehe.

Welcome home!! 16-03-2008

At last, Linla is back at home!!! I woke up at 4.28am and start to prepare to head for the airport. But the arrival time is at 6.02pm. Nevermind lah, I was too happy liao. Kind of miss her so much.

Once landed, we went to have our breakfast, 2 bowls of 'ba choi mee' and 1 bowl of 'prawn noodle'. Went home to unpack those stuff and took a power nap. By noon, we are out of the house for our shopping trip at Vivocity, which I miss so much! We went for a movie "The Leap Year", starting Wong Li-Lin. Well not a bad show. The story content is good for a local production. Watch it!

Keeping the flame alive




Today, class ends at 9.00pm. Thought go through my mind, should I go riding with L&T. If they set out at 8.30pm, I should be able to catch them somewhere between east coast park or fort road. Or, should I just go to Rav4 expedition meeting?

After weighting, tossing and much consideration, I made up my mind to join the ride. By 9.15pm, I reached home and conducted a "change parade". By 9.30pm, I am reach in east coast park lagoon hawker centre. 15 minutes to drive myself from school campus (city) to home (east coast) 5 minutes to change and preparing my bike. 10 mins to reach lagoon. I am crazy!!!

Chief Raja waited for me at lagoon and we started pedalling to west coast hawker centre. It wasn't west coast park, but pretty close to Pandan reservoir. The ride was fun with a big group of riders which was hard to miss.

Are you lonesome tonight?

I am so bloody lonely. Linla will not at home for the whole of next week. She has gone to New Zealand for a paid trip by the ministry. I really envy her because out of the 8 days trip, she only needs to 'work' 2 days. The rest are Rest and Recreational activities.

I am so boring. Everyday, I locked myself inside the room. Suddenly, the room become so 'cold.'
Somehow, I miss her nagging...... When couples are seperated with a distance, they tend to think of the other party more often. Everyday, I will wait for her call back and that is when you see my face is busting with smile.

I am dying for her to come back asap. So sad!
