"The day i lost my Wisdom..... tooth" ![]() It took me a few weeks to finally realise that i actually had a decay in my nicely grown wisdom tooth on the right side. The days when i couldnot sleep at night while feeling the pain in my jaws and the severe headche that comes along with it. Eating has never been a problem though coz i just gobbled any food down. I guess it only aggravate the problem further. This ridiculous on-off toothache happens most frequently at night which make me assume that it might be a nightly battle between my gums and my tooth. But when yesterday the sufferings continue in the day at work, i knew something is wrong. The battle should have ended. But i guess my jaw/gum have failed. (the days spartans falled) Coupled with the fact that i have so little sleep from watching 2 days of Champions League matches, the headache set in. Then my work became dishevelled and i kept holding my jaw to minimise the pain. So...... i guess its time to visit the dentist which i havent gone to for a year plus already... or maybe 2 years? hmm..... I asked my supervior to allow me to leave early. Booked an appointment with a dentist surgery clinic in Tampines Telepark as Bedok ones are fully booked. When i reached the small, air-conditioned, neat clinic just beside 7 eleven at Telepark, i realised that i never saw this clinic before even though i passed by that area lot of times... The initial query on "whats wrong?" by the dentist itself and a peak into my mouth startled the dentist. Decay, he says and the options he gave me were 2.
I definitely wanted a quicker solution plus a lower cost of operation so number 2 was the obvious one. The surgery was a quick one. Started with a few jabs of anaesthetic in my gums which even numbed my right ear and then covering my eyes with a towel as he performed an extraction process. No pain no gain. So i endured. ![]() Friends have been telling me yesterday about how painful it would be after the numbness have subsided. But thank god, right now, i dont feel that. the numbness have subsided and i can even sleep well. I guess the amount i pay to the dentist and his assistance was well worth it. The dentist gave a good review of what is going to happen, what i can expect to happen and all the precaution i should take. So here, im recommending Blog readers to consider this place if u want to visit one.
Though i knew i couldnt chew well, i can speak normally already. So next stop is to remove the stitches on saturday. Right now, im enjoying my day at home as i have MC till the weekend!!! wrote on 10:58 am. Tuesday, April 10, 2007
The Bike that i will most probably get if i "have" a 2B licence ![]() Aprilia RS 125 2006 125 cc only. Furthermore, i came across this article written by BikerBoy, New Paper: By Zaihan Mohd Yusof - 23 July 2006 The New Paper Don't mistake this 125cc for a commuter bike. Because it isn't one. "The 2006 Aprilia RS 125 is potent as it has features you'd expect to see on bigger bikes. Blame its racing heritage. For starters, this pocket rocket has radial-mount brake calipers, full-floating brake rotors and steel-braided brake hoses. Expensive and stylish stuff. No other 125cc has such a sexy and powerful front brake. Radial brakes are usually reserved for superbikes or prototypes commonly seen in MotoGP. The RS 125 wants to keep up with its bigger rivals. Some of you would remember that the early generation of RS 125s were hot in the '90s. Everybody here wanted one. Maybe it has to do with champions like Valentino Rossi and Loris Capirossi, who took Aprilia to victory, many times over. This year's version looks refreshing. Gone are the bulbous fairings and bumble-bee tail section. If the RS 125 looked like a bumble bee in the past, it now looks like a hornet with armour plating - one that's poised to sting. It has sharper lines, similar to its bigger sibling, the Aprilia RSV 1000 Mille R. Don't worry, the 2006 Aprilia doesn't come with the 'milk powder can' exhaust pipe. Its exhaust pipe now looks sleek. Biker Boy approached motorcycle company Mah Pte Ltd, and got hold of an RS 125 for a test ride. You know you're on a focused machine when you look at this bike's clocks. Some of the serious components on the RS 125 include: a digital speedometer, lap timer, temperature gauge, and a 2T sensor. It also has multi-spoked wheels. The tachometer needle does a 'sweep' when you turn the ignition key on. Only then is the electric-start RS 125 ready to be fired up. Like most two-stroke motorcycles, the RS 125 is a high-revving bike for the committed. Ride the Aprilia as though it's a lazy Sunday cruise and you will be disappointed. You need to keep the revs in the powerband. Something magical happens when you hit about 8,000rpm. The bike charges forward and just wants you to shift gears until you run out of them. But remember the speed limit. The six-speed Aprilia is agile too. It's designed for the twisties. It's light, and with its 9.7kg frame, flickable. If things get out of hand due to your enthusiastic throttle hand, you can count on the first-rate brakes. The only complaint riders might have is that there is no brake lever adjuster. Some would prefer the brake lever to be nearer to the clip-on handle bar. The pillion seat, while looking avant-garde, offers little comfort. It's just too small. But I don't really care. This motorcycle is made with one purpose in mind: To be ridden hard by one rider, minus pillion. So what's the damage? The machine price for the RS 125 is $10,600 without COE. Too expensive for your taste? Maybe. But there's a difference between riding a donkey and being on a stallion on steroids. " wrote on 9:03 am.
