Dad, don't do that again.

My heart stopped for a while just now.

Found my dad asleep on the sofa downstairs with the TV still on. A common sight as he always falls asleep after 5-10 mins of lying on the sofa or bed.

Usually a slight shake would wake him and he'll just mutter something about him being tired and it's time for him to sleep.



Just now ... it took me quite a while for me to shake him up. I was holding his arm and tapping his leg initially. But when he showed no response ... that got me really frightened and had to really shake him a little harder before he really did woke up, eyes blinking sleepily.

It was a very heart stopping 10 seconds!!!!

The frightening thought of losing my dad ran through my head is still fresh in my mind.

Not now dad ... it's still too soon for you.

Why I prefer to ride when I go clubbing

Just compare simply.

If I don't ride to the club, I have to spend on the following :
- $20 cab fare to the club
- $30 drinks (average) since I'm not riding can drink more
- $30 cab fare home

If I ride to the club :
- $20 drink AT MOST cuz I will be less motivated to drink since I'm riding.

Imagine that $50 spent on cab fare can let me pump my bike FULL TANK at least 3 times!!!!
3 times full tank will last me at least 2 weeks!!!

Morever, riding gives me a damn good excuse to reject ridiculous tall drinks of fire and shots.

Sigh.

Rain or shine ... I'll be riding everywhere I go. Unglam but ... richer. Hee hee.
