Hi all,
It's been a while since i last updated this blog...
basically, things happened, but nothing big that is life-altering whatsoever...
it's just that my life has been... pretty routine...
going to work, coming back from work,
going out for movies, lunch, dinner... watchamacallit things that you do with your girlfriend when you go out dating... blablabla...
but over these months i'm getting much more involved in rides...
i rode more often, i rode further, and i rode longer.
it's calming. it's enjoyable. it's challenging and it's enlightening.
it's a getaway from all this routine. it's my escape.
and i enjoyed every KM and every minute of it...
it's just that my rides had made my girl to think i abandoned her...
that i dont spend enough quality time with her....
that i dont bring her along with my rides...
that i spend more on my hobby than on "US"
well, i do admit that, i'm abit carried away with this...
but this is not mere simple hobby.
this is my passion,
but one that i am ill-afford to.
how about my (current) savings?
how about my (coming) marriage?
how about my (future) kids?
how about my plan in life?
i have enough to get by every month,
but i have none for the rainy days...
i have no safety net to fall back on...
why am i so into riding?
i have no clear idea...
i cant provide a convincing argument
to justify me dumping in my time and money into this...
perhaps the thought that i'm no longer young,
and time is running out for me to do things that i wanted,
before i commit myself to marriage and raising a family...
perhaps i am afraid. afraid of losing my freedom. afraid of losing my wings.
or perhaps i'm just directionless in my life,
and riding is like abusing drugs.
an easy (but costly) way to achieve some sense of escapism.
to avoid, to hide from answering ppl's call and expectations.
tired of having to act, to put on masks.
tired of harbouring the thought that
i'll return back to the same monotone of working life
everytime the nite falls on Sunday.
i guess, i need to take something everyone else wanted the same.
I NEED TO TAKE A BREAK!!!
*p.s. : i'll be away for a 2 days, round-trip ride to southern malaysia (KL - JB- KUANTAN - KL) on 26th-27th Jan 2008.
