Long while away...

It has been a long while since I last updated this blog. Working in my day job as well as my second job to make ends meet have left me with little time for my family, my friends and myself.

As I am trapped in this mad struggle to make ends meet. I wonder all so frequently about the simpler life back when I was younger. Not much worrying about bills. Not much worrying about health either. Just a simple life of trying to learn and experience life as much as I can.

Happiness have always being an elusive matter for me.  Given that the troubles of yesteryears paled in comparison to the troubles of today. I really wondered why I didn't smile more in the past. Maybe I should smile more today as maybe the troubles of tomorrow are even more daunting. I know, I am really being negative.


I really hope things will get better. It has been rough going long enough already.

Much bloggable moments have passed in the months since my last entry. There were good times and bad times. But they were all not recorded.

Running have also taken a backseat in the past few month. I was averaging only 1-2 runs a week. Though, I still managed to finish a half marathon in September. I am definitely not in the fit condition as I was.

God, I really need help to make my life better. Please help me.

    I for one don't have any knowledge of html. So I guess you won't need much of that?

A friend lost...

It was a lazy afternoon at a coffeeshop in Bt Gombak. A brief look at the iPhone as my friend Leonard read through the alleged blog of a beligerent friend. A shrug and a smile later. "I know why you are feeling so this way. You are all grieving for the loss of a friend." "We all did what we can to convince him. But it will come to a point where you just had to let go." "He made his choice, and for better or worse, he will face the consequences of his actions. He should know that by doing all this he will lose his old friends. Yet he did it. You can't control another person man. Let him be...We probably don't mean anything to him now. So why bother getting angry over it." I nodded and remembered his words. For a long while, I toyed with the idea of replying to Asingaporean's loaded and aggressive reply to me on the public web. It was full of accusations and with no sense of guilt on his end. He has allowed his friends to be slained online and ev

I fell in love today..... With a Suzuki Swift Sport...

My Mrs has been making some noise about the budget and my car Marchie lately, and we are contemplating selling it. Obviously, I couldn't bear to sell my first wife, Marchie. Nevertheless, I being visiting some used car dealers and trying to run up some numbers,like how much Marchie can fetch. Also if possible to find a newer car and hopefully not to pay so much. I came across a blue gray Suzuki Swift Sport, a bit older for my contemplation. I have being looking for cars that are from 2008 or younger. The Sport is from December 2007 and cost SGD$46,800. The price is cheaper than most other cars I being considering. For the benefit of overseas readers, cars in Singapore are ridiculously expensive and still getting more ridiculous. A normal new Suzuki Swift now cost almost $100,000. A new Sport will cost about $120,000. While Mrs has been asking me to consider living without a car. I have being having sleepless nights about losing Marchie. Back to the Sport, after some haggling

Running as a form of transportation

Its being busy days for me as a newly wed couple going through their first Chinese New Year together. Despite being on holidays for the past four days, my running schedule have fallen behind. Today, after ending my new year visits early. I sent wifey home to rest while I prepared to sneak off for a run. I was preparing for a coastal run as usual till her cousin CT called and asked if we wanted dinner. Wifey turned down the offer as she wasn't keen to travel out. I offered to make the trip down by foot. I was at Geylang East Central. Her aunt's place was at Chuan Place. Usually it would take a 20 minutes drive down to the place. Wifey told CT that I am running down. CT replied in disbelief, not expecting that I will actually do that. I changed into my running gear. Did my warm up and check Google Maps for the distance to destination. 6.1km. Should be an easy run. I started my GPS tracker,Endomondo and the heart rate monitor. One foot in front of the other, I commenced my run. Ru
