i was just thinking. what if, one day, i stop updating this space, stop going online on msn messenger, will anyone even notice? i could easily die suddenly, disappear from the world without interrupting much.

that, is how important i am.

the fast and the furious - tokyo drift

this evo look ugly. to be frank. haha. but i still love evo.


silvia. a few weeks ago i was seriously considering buying a 2nd hand silvia. design look very old school but it fits perfectly into the location, japan.

same thing. meant to fit into the location


same as well. haha

the fast and the furious - tokyo drift

among all the cars, i love this the most. 350Z fairlady is a well-designed car i realised. i love the paintworks on this! the only sad thing is that the bodykit look plastic. that's probably for the sake of the carpark drift scene.

i love mustang too! american muscles they called it. this car still look so nice after so many generations.


another 350Z. pretty nice too. the spoiler fits well into the design.

i love the paintworks on this 350Z too!!! reminds me of the supra from "the fast and the furious"


yes, another american icon. the corvette. only realised the wonder of this car after a documentary on discovery channel.

a few things on my mind lately.

isn't it amazing that as we grow up, we trust our eyes more and more? when a small kid see something, his/her reaction will be to touch it and then lick the finger. the sense of taste. then as we grow older, we began to smell unknown thing. then when we are matured, we began to try to shake the thing to hear sounds or just plain observing it by sight. the reverse is also the same. think about it. then when we are blindfolded, we are very afraid to smell it. not to say taste it. however, we still trust our ears. we still shake and try to use the sense of hearing to figure it out.

why?

do you know that all of us human was born with only 2 fears. the fear to fall and the fear of loud sudden noises. as an normal adult, we have over 2000 fears. over the years, we have acquire so much fear. that's what we are.

maybe it's only in our local context. say if i were to open a food stall, the best signboard is to have it printed with some other location. for example, if i open a chicken rice stall in hougang, i will just have it printed "famous ang mo kio chicken rice". i'm sure business will be great for the first few months. how funny.

operation flying balloon

it was a success. not an easy feat i must said. btw, this is the brainchild from me during a chicken rice lunch over the weekend. a friend was troubling over what to do for his gf's bday and i suggested raising a bunch of balloon all the way to the girl's window to send her the present. we managed to accomplish our mission after struggling with the wind for about an hour.

btw, this shit is the one the spark me off going serious into events. i realised i've alot of cracky ideas and i'm rather good at facilitating.

anyway, the lessons for the FSAE is good. it's my only motivation to study engineering real hard now. building a car is seriously not easy.

today i'm just thinking about how i always lose steam so fast. at the start of each semester i always tell myself to do better. but halfway through, i will just drop everything and sloth will take over my drive. how how how? what to do? school is starting and i'm really scared that it will happen again. the only difference is i will be stepping into this semester with a very hard lesson learnt. one that some of you might not even encounter once in your life.

we'll see.

nothing to talk abt.

i have been damn weak. 2 total weeks of absolute inactivity. the mizuno run today sucks big time. practically we walked through the whole thing. must start catching up.

school is starting. i'm rather excited. first i get to live alone again. then it's time for a new start. and also to get away from the boring vacation attachment.

my classes for the FSAE has started. i love it totally. if you have seen "American Choppers" on discovery channel, you will know what i meant.

i spent the weekend thinking what kind of things i wanna do. i realised i'm rather good at events. so i shall explore tt area. i shall try to get some simple jobs from OBS for a start.

alright. that's for now. i'm feeling so tired after my sunday morning walk.

i'm feeling good.

the taper has been working out well. last week and early this week, i was feeling all tired every single day due to all the training. right now, 14 hours before the triathlon, i'm feeling damn good. muscles feel relaxed yet not "soft". energy level is high and not bloated. concentration is good. i've never felt this good and ready for anything. it was a well executed plan.

talking about concentration, i realised how important concentration is for running and cycling and swimming. to maintain the correct posture etc. and most importantly, not to let thoughts run wild and allow sub-concious to make ur physical body tired. do you know that you sub-concious can make you tired as much as you want to go harder? this is what happen on a hot hot day if you are not used to it. you brain will tell your body that it's hot and force it to shut down as much as you think you can go harder.

oh well, hope i will enjoy myself tmr. gotta wait 3hours before my wave start. wanted to catch the pros in action but that will mean that i have to reach there earlier. so i rather rest more.

osim singapore triathlon.
