Lay low, arrogance and ego not needed here.
The lazy bug sets in, lazy to move a muscle....anyways, my eyes, I need to do something bout it....it gets tired easily....
I'm anxious bout 14th December, I wonder if I am able to at least get a placement somewhere in the middle, at least that would justify for me to participate in the next race and probably in the novice category if I have added goodies to my Suzie.
If I get enough bonus, I'm going to buy myself some more track stuffs and probably do new decals as a treat for myself.
I'm now contemplating, to buy a pair of good running shoes or just go to e-mart and get those army issued one. The last pair died on me during the last run last week.

Hi-Octane
Octane's in my blood....I still haven't perfected my lines, my yarbles still have not been upgraded to stainless steel....my stamina in that scorching sun...sigh...but at least I gain a little more confidence being with the fast boys....and at least im not the last....LoL just need that balls of steel and stamina...
Gonna condition myself to the scorching sun, gonna run in the late afternoon rather than the cool morning.....
Gotta go to work....Ain's right, it's becoming an obsession, I am a Supermoto Junkie.

56secs
My cousin timed my lap, my average was 56secs.....not good enough....Aliyun's timing was 46sec, my cousin Alif also around there.....I'm like 10sec slow....
I need balls upgrade....to steel yarbles.
I'm waiting for Rhea to upload the photos...
I'm set on participating.....I know probably it'll cost my bonus but what the heck, for the experience, and I'm not going for a holiday or anything, this is just a way of rewarding myself...
Right now, I'm determined to loose more weight for the race and to loose that 10secs, so that at least I can achieve the average timing....

breathe sumo
My concern now, bike in condition to race and not to finish last on December 14th. If I finish not last at least, I'll participate in next year's series.
My 2nd concern is getting confirmed and getting recognized for my involvement in 2 research projects.
My 3rd concern, will I be still staying alone or will my cousin's grandparents shift in? Which I do not want the latter to happen.
My 4th concern, will I finally decide to settle down? LoL
Come support #166 on 14th December at Tuas Circuit.

im loving the sea breeze
We decided to run today, I woke up a little late but we still ran. It was nice running by the beach, the sea breeze and all. Surprisingly I was still able to run, probably cos I had company and the beach and the breeze and the environment and the many runners around. I can foresee more mornings of runs. Targeting to go further next week and probably up to the optimal heart rate or a minimal of 45minutes, whichever is earlier. :)
I need to loose a couple of kgs for the race if I want to participate, if not I'm already loosing some time due to my weight, cos more weight=more power needed, less pick up, slower time.
I'm gonna get my track buddies to time me my next track day. I wouldn't wanna participate if I'm going to finish last. I'll be wasting my 100bucks only.

#166
#166. Yeah thats wats going to be my race number. Ain suggested 33 but that was taken. i'll HOPEFULLY be competing in the stock bikes race in December whereby all the bikes do not have any modifications made to the engines. I think it's great opportunity to discover my potential and to gain confidence in future competitions.
But it will only be possible if #1 I get leave or off that day. #2 If my lap time is at least satisfactory, I don't wanna be finishing last, 2nd last is ok but not last.....LoL
Today Uncle Raptor(Angelo) became my track guru...he thought me lines. Lines are path that you line before you in order for a smooth run thru the circuit and today I was alot smoother...and I managed to lap 2 newbies....isn't that great!!! Woots...I am improving though a little minor mishap as I became complacent, and panicked. I can be there'd be more track days for me. Woots!
Do come and give me support should everything fall in place deeming it possible for me to compete on 14th December in the 'Stockie SM race' at Tuas Circuit.

im not meeting ain today, she have to work late. 2moro it is, dvd night. i think im beginning to feel something, i think.
i need to give myself a kick on the butt, work is not very fun but i have been lucky that god has decide to lay a comfortable path ahead of me. im only 3 months young in imh and i've already been nominated into 2 research groups, i hope the hard work will be fruitful and i still hope that advance dip will come true in 2009. dr prema make it happen yeah!

Monsoon
The weather does not allow we junkies to practice. With downpours at the times we usually hit the tracks and even in the early evenings before dark, it's pretty impossible for us to train. Being positive, I guess its a good time to build up my fitness and also hopefully my right ring finger will function normally again, its like super stiff, I guess the tendons in there have scar tissues that caused the stiffness.
Why fitness you say? It plays a big part in racing, believe me, it can be tiring, under the second skin which is the leather suit, you sweat like nobody's business. Poor arm strength also means your arms becomes numb sooner than someone who's fit. Physical fitness is also very necessary for me at work, pinning down disturbed, aggressive and violent patients whereby sometimes the strength of 4 is not even sufficient to pin down one.
I am still worried bout my finger, I don't wanna go for a check up cos I know the intervention would either be day-surgery or cast, meaning I can't ride for at least weeks....sigh....I'll get it massaged, I'd go hunt for traditional ones, I still remembered there's one opposite Queensway.

abnormal

bended
-SuMo
Rain....no track session....good also let my right ring finger recover fully, the joint still a little swollen and stiff.I wouldn't wanna go to the doctor cos it will probably get a cast...LoL
I hope to participate next year but at the rate I am going, I don't think I can be able to beat the clocks or let alone qualify. Whatever it is, I will give it a shot.
-------------------------------
-Work
As I head to the canteen yest at work, I bumped into NC-Tri, he's leading one of the research projects I am involved with. What he said was very encouraging and I hope it will be and I hope I remain focus and not screw up. I am aiming for that advance diploma and I hope the DN recognize my efforts in the 2 research projects I am already involved in.
I will be on night duty alone pretty soon. My colleagues some how was not really happy about one of my NMs decision not to let me do in-charge or 3rd shift while I am on probation. I being a natural slacker kinda liked his decision except I get less moolahs at payday. Being me, I went to my SNM and asked him to grant me permission to be put on 3rd shift......permission granted. :)
-------------------------------
-Life
Got a chill out buddy now....just hang around, watch dvds, dinner....:) I think I will put on weight if I carry on eating all those rich food....LoL....It's been quite some time since I really go out just purposely to eat real food. Last week alone, I had satay, fish and co and ben & jerry's... gotta exercise to counter all those.
What Fan(my colleague) told me has got me a little paranoid. That's me, I get paranoid at times.
Speaking of paranoid, I'm paranoid about Cancer and osteomyelitis....LoL.....sometimes too much knowledge gets you a little at the edge....LoL
I don't think I can save much this month but I took into consideration that I spent 200bucks on that forma boots and replacing the rubber killers which cost me around $50. Then now I need to change my engine oil, 2 bottles and oil filter, which will cost me another 50 odd....
-------------------------------
Okla gotta shower. See ya around.....

Complacent?
I'm pretty much comfortable but that does not mean I can lay back. I have to always be on alert, ready to strike, defend or attack. Being alone, in practically bout almost everything, I need to be always prepared.
Comfortable yes but I do not have back up(savings). Which I seriously need to build up. I am now wondering should I continue my t-printing, decals and mlm. I think I should, the only problem is I have to seriously create time for those, I just worry of burn out. But nows the time, my network growing bigger, its a great time to take advantage of this. The market for my tees and decals is bigger....I need ideas for something different. You can bet it'll be supermoto related. First one already in mind, 'I Love SuMo!" LoL
Check out hallucinate clothings site in the near future. I'll start sourcing for quality vinyl. And I'll start ebay trading again, supermoto parts, I only need to do calculations if its worth the effort....
Yes money isn't everything but without money, my dreams/vision is like a car without petrol.

junkie
I'm anal bout certain things...especially with my bike...no not outlook but the comfort and performance...if I had SPARE cash, my bike I guess would be the monsters of all Zees.
Today I tried to rectify the slightly off handle bars...I am not really sure if its bent, I tried loosening the clamps but my frail right hand had no strength to do so, I need a proper tool like a ratchet probably...
So I went down the few bike shops that's open on Sundays. Auntie-shop mechanic said it's my clamps that's bent probably, I thought so, cos renthal-fatbars are pretty sturdy and strong. Jack(the king of endos) told me its probably the rubbers, I agreed with him as being from an engineering background, the cast iron clamps bent? abit odd. So I narrowed down to the rubber mounts, the bolts, the clamps and lastly the bars. Tumoro if the lazy bug doesn't struck me, I'd head to Ideal motors and get that Zeta-rubber killers. If that doesn't work, I hope vanturas doesn't get Ryan's pro-taper bars so I can get it instead and of course the clamps.
I'm waiting for the meters to come in...right now, I'm riding without a speedometer. It's not worrying if it isn't Singapore. The thing is I can't gauge my speed accurately when there's speed cameras...what I can do is follow the speed of other vehicles. Ah boy said the meters (up to 180km/h) will arrive in a couple of weeks time.
Right now I guess I'll do up the performance, I don't give a fuck bout outlook, I'm a track junkie and on the tarmac, it's not how good you look but how fast & smooth you can go. Looks is secondary but that doesn't mean I'm neglecting it totally, I'm thinking of building up spare plastics and 'blings' so that I can look good off track and change to the beat up plastics only on track....
I need a full face helmet for daily use. On the last track day, the full face helmet saved me from being chinless...LoL....
But top priority get my handlebar-problem fixed, long gloves, new set of replacement handguards, that tail-light bracket fixed.
--------------------
My passion aside, I wanna settle down when the time is right, I wanna have boys so I can teach them skateboarding, photography and racing...LoL.....I'm taking my grandma's advice and somehow it just falls in place. I'm praying nothing goes wrong, I'm praying other distractions to be far away. I got almost all that I had asked for, I'm not perfect either, I guess I have to be fair, I can't be choosy...
--------------------
I'm getting along with life fine, I haven't got a chance to talk to my cuzzen bout my proposal but then again, it might be a blessing in disguise. I'd be patient, patience is the key to many things and many a times it's the rushing in that caused most problems...I'd wait and consider properly, it will fall into place, decisions will be natural, God will help me, InsyahAllah
---------------------
Wings concert postponed!!! Sad....but a good excuse to hang out with Ain...LoL
---------------------
Lastly to Loloq, it's never too late to change...As a friend, I'll help with whatever I can.
----------------------
K good night peepz.....love you all out there....
