Teenage angst has paid off well. Now I'm bored and old.

It's a fucking shame we have to be raised , to fear and mistrust.

When your best is still not enough

Another work review, another poor grade. Are my standards dropping or am I a victim?

Why can’t people just sit and read books and be nice to each other?

Obi-Wan Kenobi originally specialized in Form IV, trained in the form by Qui-Gon Jinn. However, upon witnessing his master’s death due to Ataru’s lack of defensive capabilities, Kenobi decided to switch his focus to Soresu in order to eliminate this weakness in his own technique. Kenobi’s resulting skill in Form III stood him in good stead against masterful gunslingers such as Jango Fett, or during the chaotic firefight on Geonosis. His tight defense and energy-efficient moves enabled him to pull through and survive where most of the Jedi strike team could not.

With the high cost of COE for vehicles these days, it’s financially impractical to get a new car or bike. Adding to the fact that it’s not even yours completely makes it even more discouraging.

My options are not that great even in the secondhand/used market. With the budget that I am willing to fork out, it’s really limited.

So I cast my eyes to an old forgotten love. An evergreen nostalgic machine that was a huge part of my childhood. Friends discouraged me but nostalgia has a powerful pull. Yes, I bought it rather impulsively but I am loving every moment of it. The unmistakeable sputtering of the engine and the unique sound of the horn never fail to have me smiling.

It’s not perfect but no love is. It need lots of works. One that I am happy to indulge.

Here we go again.

Another new set. Because sometimes you need some order amidst all the the chaos.

After 4 straight nights and about 20 hours, it's finally done!

4 hours gone by and I managed to build up only up to this. Can anyone guess what set is this?

Quiet satisfaction

Non-readers can’t comprehend the joy of not putting the book down anytime soon in the midst of a good plot.
