New Year's Day 2011

I didn't do any bike stuff and it was raining so all I have are these pics from NTUC :-P

It's the first day of 2011. I think I may have to wax lyrical

about life in general and my hobbies in particular... uhhh that will be

boring ;-)

So today, me and my family went out to Orchard Road (yay!).

It has been quite some time since we last went there... and

guess what? The Christmas lights are already gone!

It was raining quite heavily today... So all the people were

all cooped up in the malls. Good thing that in Singapore,

the mall 'network' is such that you may spend as little

time as possible out of the sun (or in this case, the rain) and
still get from one mall to another.

We were able to make our pilgrimage from ION to Takashimaya.

Speaking of Takashimaya, I went to Books Kinokuniya to browse

for a while and look what I found!

All households need one... really.

I browsed the above book and it, indeed, teaches the reader

what to do in the event that the world gets run over by zombies! 

This means I can write a book about totally bogus stuff

and pass it for the genuine article? Something like :

10 Rules to Survive a Martian Attack.

Apparently, the book is a best seller ... which

means the author is now rich ?!?!

Sigh, some guys have all the luck...

Anyway, I was rummaging thru my backup CDs and found

a clip of me (in blue singlet) climbing a rockwall @Climb Asia near

RaceCourse Rd.

Now, that is one thing that I miss. Rock Climbing is a fantastic

workout. I used to do that as a cross training for my

dragonboat training. The logic was it helps me stretch all

those muscles that are heavily used in dragonboat

paddling. However, the exercise is very bad for the wallet

as one session costs 8SGD! ... maybe I'll do it again

and limit myself to 1 session per week ?

Ok, enough rumbling from me. Happy New Year, people.

Tomorrow, hopefully, I'll be able to ride with my buddies.
