Hawaii sandwich....
didn't do much today. max got up at 6am to finish his work; i woke up at the same time, had a big breakfast and went back to sleep right afterwards. got up at 11:30am and stayed in front of computer until 12:30pm and ran out to catch the train at 1pm to get to school.

came back and had a sandwich for lunch and continue surfing until NOW!!!

keyword: often and change

it seems like i have visited max so often that whenever i said that i was going to visit him, the reaction i generally received normally was, "again? didn't you just visit him?"

i thought so too. I thought i have visited him so often that i should cut back the number of visits i will pay to him in future. but i was wrong. it is not SO OFTEN. last time i visited him was exactly a year ago. Since last year, he is the one coming to visit me often. anyways, we see each other pretty often consider the long distant relationship we are having.

the point is, things have changed. a year ago, i almost turned myself into a housewife here; but now, at least by now, max's being doing the major cook and i only help with preparing vegetables; and he cooks well!



so when i saw the dinner he fixed last night, i was once again feeling the change! heihei~~

we went for a walk after dinner.

fixing bikes and rolling

, originally uploaded by thepooler.

max has two old bikes that need to be fixed. When he mentioned about fixing bikes, i immediately suggested that since I can't help much with fixing bikes, i would like to show him my rolling skills.

i assumed we would be just downstairs. but he said he would take me somewhere else; he always fixes his bikes there.

..... i think i am not creative enough to anticipate why there must be a specific place to fix bikes. it would be a lot of work: carrying my rollerblades, my gear, his tool box, and other equipments, food, water and then two old bikes; we can't even ride them; we had to push them to the destination.

It took us 15 minutes to walk under the sun to arrived at his secret bike fixing place. it was just the same park we went yesterday!!! Just a different location of the park where some benches sit along the path, and he can work while sitting on the bench, enjoying the breeze and getting his hand dirty.....


i was a bit of speechless, but the long path there made me really happy. there weren't too many people around, so when i practiced i don't need to be afraid that i will crash into someone.

so i was practising, an old man sat on another bench with his dog laying next to his feet watched me rolling. i rolled pass him, he didn't say a word, passed him the second time, third time, forth time... he got up and left.

later, i went back to max to check out how he was doing. He said that that gentleman came to talk to him about my skill....he said i should soften my knees, low my upper body and lean forward more when i roll...

.$$^&*)_(^&^$$#!.
i took his advice and i was much better. but i fell once.. on my pigu..

at the end, max couldn't fix bikes completely; inner tire and chain of one bike need to be changed. so we packed everything, shoes, gears, bikes, tool box, other equipments, food, water and went home.
