Let's Bike It! (Велопарад)

This was a project launched to draw attention to ecological problems and to demonstrate the convenience of cycling. It is the 3rd time this event is held in Moscow. 

Cycling event is a first for me. I have not joined any cycling events back in Singapore before. It turned out pretty fun but super exhausting! I think it got to do with the bike too. The rental bikes in Moscow are very heavy. Renting a bike in Moscow cost 900 rubles for 4-6 hours. 

We were greeted by a massive crowd of bikers at the start line at 10.30am in the morning. People played dressed up, music was booming, nice bikes all around.. it was a great crowd :)
All ready at the start line...
The roads were closed for half a day just for this event. Cars on the opposite side of the road that was not closed were honking, waving and cheering whenever we cycled passed.
The group of Singaporeans that attended the cycling event. We cycled a total of about 20km. 
I look forward to more such events! :)

The Orange Timber

Today was a pretty chill day, walking around, eating and reading my book! It has been a long time since I walked along Blk 85 market.

Since I had breakfast there with my grandma today, I showed der the old sch cake shop where Cham and I bought a huge cream cake (not those fanciful ones we get these days) and finished it all by ourselves under the void deck! Der and I couldn't resist the temptation to buy a slice each :) Strawberry vs blueberry...Only $1.10 each. Those miniture ones that are sold at toast box cost $1.20 and they are only 1/3 the size of this! What a rip off for something nostalgia... Later in the evening, we decided to chill at The Orange Timber @ Tiong Bahru The Orange Timber is a cafe cum art gallery. The plates are bowl used were also meant to be something nostalgia once again... hah However, I use those cutlery at home too. There are like 3 sections to this small cafe...

Having the Chills

If you, Derrick is ever reading this, I would suggest you close this page. It's my right to type whatever I want. I won't mince my words because this is my space. I hardly feel unwell and this not the best time to fall sick. Yet I'm having the chills. Whenever my boob hurts, I will start to get the chills and a little temperature. It had to come at the time when i'm feeling totally not in the mood to do anything. I think I should swallow a few more pills. What I had isn't enough. Guess feeling down really brings down one's immune system. We just got news that we will be moving back to Singapore and the first thing that came to my mind is F*** I've to face her. That fake face (literally fake. No amount of make up helps la. old means old. draw what draw) who pretends she doesn't care or even when we talk face to face she says no no it's ok. PUI! Der will be unhappy reading this but i blame it on him for making the situation like this. No amount of ...
