NEVER MESS WITH A CHEENA BOY ON A RED INDIA BIKE April 27, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — bennycan @ 8:56 pm

I was riding home as usual after finishing my morning shift at work.

 

  Feeling a little tired and bored I decided to check out farmway 3 fishing pond. Actually I was there to recky and evedrop on the regular patrons to learn where the hottest spot in the pond were. Saw a cute dalmatian(dog) walking around…hmmm maybe he was just a white dog with oil stain. Anway this tues night I’ll be down there again with nick and a old kaki to fish!! will bring along some oil busting detergent to clean some pirated doggy… 

 

Took  mental note of all the productive spots, techniques and types of bait used and boy was I ready to be on my way back home.Turned the airconditioning unit from my bike up to relive myself from the scorching heat. OOoo correction, throttle hard and travel above 90km/hr on the expressway to enjoy the “coolness” of sitting in front a industrial fan without actually sitting infront of one.

 

While negotiating my turn into Jalan Kayu via  TPE/PIE  this badass of a bike probably doing 110-120km/h  zoomed past me and a few other cars.  Looked to be a yamaha YZF-R6(top speed in the range of 250-270km/h)

After making my turn in and nearing a traffic light I saw the same  bloke waiting for the red light to turn green. I stopped behind him and admired this beauty of  a machine. He looked to his side mirror and I saw a smirk on his face behind his  fugly sunglasses.

light turned green and all i heard was the distinct sound of  clutch engaging,reving engine and screaming exhaust , he was gone leaving the  traffic behind.

 

While me on my erhem! humble bajaj pulsar(made in india)  just happily rolled along “insert fly me to the moon in slow melodius piano tune”

 

Rolling to a stop at the next traffic light, mr big bad biker was in front of me waiting for the lights to turn red again.  This time he saw me in the mirror and again gave that smirk. I minded my own business and again he sped off when the lights turned  green.

He took the left lane and was block by a van while I signal right and overtook them both, then suddenly crazy man swerve, overtook the van and sped past me again. I was thinking if I had a car I would have ran him down  

Being the patient person I am, I eased the throttle and again “insert fly me to the moon music”

Arriving at the third traffic light, there he was, the same biker who since exiting the expressway had been trying so hard to shake me off his tail and there he was being stopped by the same sets of traffic light!! I was thinking”omg omg so fun no matter how fast he is I am forever kissing his tail” 

 

This kept repeating for the next few traffic light, he  would speed off when the lights turned green and at the next traffic light I would see him again.

 

moral of the story: NEVER MESS WITH THE CHINESE GUY WITH A RED INDIA BIKE! FUYOOO!!! WATAA!!!

I had packed everything into my lagguage. Locks, passport, shampoos,facial wash, camera, clothing, and another 101 things to bring to thailand.

I was suppose to fly into the land of thousand smiles

I was suppose to be caught in a riot.

I was suppose to be where I have no absolute power .

I was suppose to be oggling at chicks with dicks.

I was suppose to snap pictures of army tank running over defiant protesters.

I was suppose to laugh at Huda haggling with aunties at chatuchak market.

I was prepared to get food poisoning from road side food hawker.

I WAS PREPARED FOR A GETAWAY, A TWISTED ADVENTURE WITH RIOTS! GUNS AND BOOZE BUT!!!!

The only thing  I was not prepared for was for a state of emergency.

:( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(

Went through “international” hell trying to settle the air tickets and insurance for Huda and me.

why international? The people who man these hotlines are from all over the world. I spoke to an American, an Australian, a Phillipino and a  Japanese on seperate calls just to make changes to airline refund, cancellation and postponing the dates.

At least I got to speak to a authetic thai girl

While calling the thai agency to cancel my hotel stay…..

 

stalemate April 6, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — bennycan @ 2:20 am

Ever since towards the end of  my poly life, My adventures and misadventures has been in a stalemate.

My life has totally no deadlines except for signing in on time for work. No test to study for, no gila friends to run silly aroud the school, no class politics and gossip. No chasing club member or being chased to be more productive and efficient.

That was what life was about and what I enjoyed the most. My faithful girlfriend(hehe angkat bolah abit lah), club mates, hobbies, friends and school work all mixed  into one hell of a sinful and mind blowing concoction.

On one hand I really want to work  full time and start my career but I guess I have 3 – 4 more months before I get enlisted so whats the point.

Part time work provide my monetary needs but the satisfaction from doing  somthing I love is no longer there.

I did the next best thing.

Satisfy myself!

Volunteered myself as a  guide to Npark  nature reserve. Has always been one in touch with nature,

Regretted not enrolling into the horticulture & landscape management course in NP.  Blame me and my ambitions with a bit of brainwashing by the media and relatives on thriving aviation sector.Fast forward few year, thriving my ass. Large airlines grounding planes and forcing staff to take no pay leaves, maintainence and overhaul sides seemed sluggish. knn even ground handler Swissport are ceasing operation.

Should have gone with my heart and not what I though would be good. Ah the irony, with that kinda though it just becomes a double edge sword.

Just a matter of which side cuts deeper.

Knn better let me through my love..
