You know what happens when you decide to spend quite a bit of money on new toys, cos you have a bit of extra money?  Murphy’s Law dictates that you will also end up spending on something else that you can’t run away from.  You see i bought some new toys for my camera, including a battery grip for my 30D, flash diffuser and another battery, all for 422 dollars.  Felt damn shiok after that..

Of cos there’s always the “but”, and it came with my bike suddenly deciding to smoke and end up exhausting coolant water as steam.  So the repairs cost me 250 bucks, and since my bike is in the shop, I putting in another 250 bucks to change both my brakelines to steel ones (more effective braking and faster response) and change my engine oil (it’s time to do so anyway).  Total damage is 500

This is in view of a car coming soon in early september and I am going to loan my bike to my fren to ride.  She claims that it’s dumb to spend so much money on a bike that i wun be riding soon.. I sometimes think so too, but what to do… expensive hobbies, riding and photography…
