SGD390

the initial plan was just to change oil and front tyres....and consider changing transmission belt...that would cost maybe around 300?

ok so front tyres....70bucks....then decided to do the whole servicing, oil filter, etc and all and my belt theres crack already...so better change...plug still good but changed anyway, rollers new...then wham...spotted a nail on the back tyre...fuckaroo had to fork out another 75buckx..in the end i spent a total of sgd390 in that few hours, im dead....

followed hairi for his bike inspection and followed by lunch at al-ameen...his treat, phew...saw my uncle on his loud harley...he's living life, that should be it... having a family doesnt mean you have to ditch ur hobbies....or what u like to do provided its nothing rude or indecent la....uncle, you gotta add my name to ur harley man...hahaha neh i doubt uncle taha would do so.....but anyway his ride, rad...awesome...

rain was ubber boring and the b-quatret gig at arthouse was given a pass bcos of the pricey ticket and birdman and me was kinda broke oredi...harharhar...ive yet to pay ranon for the polaroid films and the monthly rent and not mentioning bills....so stay home saturday it is.....next wednesday...todd sweeney, today till wednesday try not to spend so much....

ouh...ive added another bike to the list of might & will haves ktm690sm fucken sexy, fucken rad.....but after seeing uncle taha, harleys still on my mind...

adios, gotta rest my eyes, cos it tires easily.....heh....precious gift from god.

ol skool


Awesome

as a muslim, first of all, Alhamdullilah....
i tot id be dead broke but again, online auctions save my ass.....
someone is bidding on my vintage helmet, as this is of no use cos im no longer riding vintage bikes, i tot i sell it off to fund my hobby + bike servicing this month, not totally but does help.
i dont mind paying subscriptions to broadband monthly partly bcos of this, it does save my ass when i need to....but i guess after july, itll be the one draining my wallet...hahahahaha...

one of the rare occasion that i ride a bicycle....and the seat being hard and small plus my butt being big is no fun at all....butt cheeks cramp after about 4hours of cycling...but was a fun trip. it was like not in singapore....somewhere different from the bustling city life, away from the books, work and heavy traffic & people.....once in awhile you need this kinda trips, healthy for the mind & body...

so fast i reached the limit for free members....so tempting to subscribe to flickr, my fotos are growing....so its either i pick the lousier one and remove off flickr or subscribe.....sigh.... i guess i will subscribe in july....heh.......

collected 3 rolls of processed films....

and these 2 are my fav shots of all the 3 rolls.....
the laughing buddha

guardian lions

Golden rules...

i guess i have to tampal a reminder at the back of my cams with settings....
"have u set everything?" bcos for 20 shots i forgot to set the ASA to 400, cos previously i was using an ASA200 film....so...now just wait for the outcome...praying very hard....LoL...

anyways was a tiring trip to ubin for shots..... next where?

dont care

ive reached to the point of shooting, where i dont fucken care whether ppl look at me, ridicule, criticize, comment or made rude remarks...it was me by myself when the rest had gigs to go, had deals to attend to and was still at work....after sending to mike for developing, i roam the bugis area unloaded before i just felt the urge, sat one corner and loaded another roll, snapping pictures of devotees hugging the huge buddha, the idols on top of the temples, passer-by, trishaw apeks....its just the joy of snapping away....im obsessed? well, wats your definition of obsession? well i would think if it disrupts daily routine...but nah, havent reach that stage....

it is just providing the joy, macam skateboarding, u'll have the joy for days if u landed a trick you've practiced for many many days, its just the same with cameras....the joy it provides me. and like ratnor said, its like an external hard-drive.....when u look back at the fotos, you recall wat a fun day it was or just look at the details that a 35mm frame can capture. it tells a story. when i have enough funds, im going to print selected prints, the ones thats not out of focus and looking good. and keep it for memories.....i still have alot of albums at bukit batok awaiting to be organized, memories of my trips, my vespa days and many more....life, sigh....sometimes u look back at the good times and it just makes u ahh.....

im up early, im sleepy, eye bags, cos the coffee made me sleepy only at 3am+.......but why im awake, the joy, the excitement makes me give a second thought going to ubin to shoot with the rest.....so here i am....still contemplating...looking at my time-table and all......i think i can. and so i will.
