lol. i've actually been so lazy/busy that i haven't been updating for like around a month or so i guess. i've been riding AND STUDYING. lol. please note the words in caps. its like the 1st time i'm actually beginning to study seriously in my entire life after realising i'm screwing my life up by not studying and kill myself in the O's. my prelims are like shit. like 31 pts for L1R4. and i shan't mention the L1R5. i'm afraid to count it. x)
i'm getting headaches from doing too much math. my brain cells are dying. lol. riding keeps my brain alive. barely though. and i'm suffering from a severe lack of sleep. i'm like sleeping at 12-1 and waking at 6 in the morning on school days. ride till like 2 on friday nights. then i get more sleep than usual till around 1. go for tuition. and continue studying like a mad scientist on sundays. damn. how i hate this life. lol. i wish the O's would pass quickly. then i'll be like living "the life of a rockstar"! :D lols. i know i know. over-exaggerated. but yea, i do wish to live "the life of a rockstar". it'll be like so cool can. lol.
and i rode yesterday. having not ride for a whole week, i was getting rusty. i couldn't even 180 properly for a good 15-30 mins. lol. until i got my flow back. phew. luckily i didn't lose it. and i was sweating shitloads by the time i landed one. leon, jeremy and i later went to fix up chun hao's brakes nearby his house. han wei came by later on and helped fix the brakes too. lol. sean then came by. kinda surprised to see him come out alone. so yep, we watched him ride. he was still as amazing as ever. he 360'ed this gap over a patch of grass even after not having ridden in months and in slippers. respect. lol. han wei killed himself on a 180 up a curb. his rear tire slipped and he hugged the floor, injuring himself. sway lah. lol. he sat on the injury bench for the rest of the session.
we then had some trouble with some malays guys playing soccer. sherman had managed to provoke them to the extent where one of them nearly punched han wei in the face. he then went home after the incident, leaving us to clear up his mess. fucking shit. i shall not elaborate further. go figure. ~!@#$%^&*
the session later on session was a nice one. we went exploring, riding whatever we could find. there was this curb to curb. i managed to 180 down the 1st and half cab the second after a few scary attempts of endoing down the 2nd curb. lol. changing spots, there was the relatively big gap. i managed to 180 it 1st try. (: leon managed to pull it off too. errol was unlucky enough to get some pins stuck in his rear tire causing a slow leak. we then went to tm for a break while errol got a lift home from his bro.
we sessioned the starf**ks spot. i went too high up on my 1st wallride attempt and overshot the wallride causing me to bail. lol. and some random lady at starf**ks screamed when i bailed. lol. i was laughing crap when i bailed. i figured that if i tried again and overshot, the guys at the same table as the girl would probably beat me up so i went th play with the vertical wall. i did my wall taps to 180 off. yay. pulled off a few. but i couldn't pull off my wall taps to fakie. o well. i was tired anyway.
the rest of the night was pretty much a blur. i only remembered us going to shell to pump our tires up, went to have a look at the quarter pipe inside some caged court and then got drinks at the budget shop. then home sweet home.
