woke up at 12.30 today! hung around the house doing nothing till about 2 when my mum came back with lunch.. then just spent my time at home.. felt pissed of for the good part of the day because of my wheelset.. brooding over how much i've spent on the damn thing..

75 bucks for the marzocchi fork
70 bucks for the maxxis Larson TTs
36 bucks for the lights (both of which mounts broke in the crash)

and now i'll have to fork out a minimum of 90 bucks for the cheapest wheelset.. so that got me thinking.. why not just get a whole new bike? i know i want a full suspension system.. but that would set me back at least 2k for a decent one.. but will this be a worthwhile investment? will i keep up this interest?

anyway, moving on, went for dinner at a fine dining restaurant at bukit timah called riders cafe.. had their grilled chilean codfish for $28.. dad had their rack of lamb ($32) and bro had their ribeye ($28).. coupled my main dish with a vanilla milkshake and a 'death-by-chocolate cake'.. the food was great, but it took ages to arrive.. they served us bread sticks 3 times during our wait.. haha.. at least it was free..

went to giant to walk around before heading home
