officially sold

We managed to sell off the Kelisa. I liked that car and we only kept it for a year. It has a new paint job and we changed the suspensions and it has an awesome pair of windshield wipers. I am gonna miss that car :'(

Anywho,hopefully all goes well after this.

P.S.:- My aunt is getting married in December and I am super psyched about it! ^_^

to-do list

We sent my car to the workshop this morning.Shu knows this guy in Kajang/Semenyih so we drove there after work today.Shu drove my car with the broken front bumper and I drove his car.When we got there,the shop was still closed so he parked my car and we drove off for a bit looking for breakfast.We ended up in Nasi Ulam.Been a fan of that place in the last couple of weeks.Got back to the shop and decided on what to do with my car.Got a quotation and we agreed with whatever.

Left for home.Got home and cleaned up for a bit.Fell asleep at about noon.Got up about 12 hours later.I have no idea why we were so damn tired but we were.Got ready and headed out to get some food.We ended up in Kampung Baru again this week.After that,we drove over to BK in Mutiara Damansara coz I wanted them yummilicious Hershey's Sundae Pie.Hung out around The Curve area for a bit.It was passed midnight at the time.

Got home at about 2am-ish.Now,we're trying to find a good movie to download ^_^

Need to follow up on what's happening with our house coz as far as we are concerned,we've done all the paperwork we needed to do.Will have to call up that real estate agent first thing Monday morning.Shit,we've got loads to do on Monday! -_-*

insured

My car is insured now.Paid almost a thousand bucks for it coz I wanted to get my wind screen insured as well ;) Still...........I haven't gotten around to getting the damn road tax renewed coz it is such a hassle to get all the paperwork done so I've been pretty much driving around with a dead road tax :p I know......it's been a month already.

If I ain't so busy working,I'll be sick.I was on MC for so long and eventually,my mum and Shu threatened to get me hospitalized coz my cough went on for more than a week.I am so sick of cough mixtures.I hate gargling the stupid throat medicine coz I tend to choke on it.I hate pee-ing coz it smells aweful from all those antibiotics I've been taking.It's been a pretty miserable week.My throat still have not recovered but I'm trying to ignore it.

House cleaning and laundry are still my favorite weekend past time ^_^

bleeding tonsil and dying fishes

It started with a minor flu.........I was sneezing every now and then.Weird.I usually don't have a sensitive issue when it comes to allergies.Maybe it was the aircond right above my head at my cubicle.Since I start work at midnight,I'd usually bring along and wear a hoodie.I guess this time the hoodie wasn't good enough.I was sneezing and then I had a minor case of runny nose and then I started coughing.Just a little bit.My throat got worse.I asked my SME for some time off coz I needed to get myself checked.Now,I'm grounded at home with bad fever every now and again.My sleeping time is off and I can hardly fall asleep when I am supposed to.

My throat itches which causes bad coughs would keep me up all day.Sometimes,I can't even breathe and sometimes it hurts so much that my whole body aches.I really want to get better soon coz I can't seem to get much done in this condition.It's gonna be the weekend and I really don't want to be the reason my husband has to stay home coz our usual weekends consists of a 10-hour outing.This is not looking good.

I left my car at my workplace the way I usually would during emergencies like last month when I started throwing up so much within 4 hours of working time.My husband rushed me to the hospital and I left my car at the office.I think I left it there for almost 2 days.Well,I left my car on Wednesday morning at about 4am coz that's usually my lunch break.I only went to get it some time in the afternoon today.

Oh yeah,we are very concerned about sudden many deaths of our guppies.WTF went wrong?!

takoyakified!

Wah.........so nice lor to be able to just kick back a little and know that I don't really have to get up in the mornings as a routine anymore.I was beginning to feel a little sick of the semester halfway through coz I seriously hate routines and it's hard to get up when you haven't really slept properly the night before.Not to mention the backdated assignments and my health not being at its best.It sorta became suckier as the semester ended.I just hope I've learned enough to make it all worth the time and energy I've spent.

Foxburr-san belanja-ed me takoyaki a while ago.He's been wanting to take me there for weeks but we haven't actually had time to go.Finally we did and them takos are ever so yummy!

Oh yeah,the Panda's gear box jammed up AGAIN.It just got back from the workshop a few days ago.Luckily,we were already in TTDI when that happened.Still,it sucks to know that most of the time I spend with that car usually ends up with Shu and I waiting for my folks and a tow truck.

The presentation yesterday morning was funny.Before my groupmates arrived at the class,I was talking to Yunus.He said his groupmates ditched him so he did some analysis on his own.He didn't wanna present coz he said it would be embarassing to go up front and talk about something completely alien from the research carried out by groupmates.His turn finally came and he presented coz his groupmates gave him a paper with the parts he had to present.

Something funnier happened later after the class was over.My groupmates told me that Yunus was arguing with a girl outside the class.What happened was that he got offended by that girl coz she was laughing and talking to her friends as he was presenting.Of course it's rude but I didn't think he'd take it that far.Seriously,I think it sucks even more to be performing with my band on stage and there's absolutely not respond from the crowd.

Anywho,that wasn't really the event of the day.Shu found some stuff on the cellphone he's currently using (which is not his coz he lost his cellphone) that turned out to be quite disturbing.So disturbing that I didn't bother to see.He ended up deleting them all since it was such a disturbing experience to have seen such things.I shall not mention names but I'd like to ask this-WHY?! And of course........eeeeuwie!

Sorry,sir.Traffic was horrible.......

It didn't help that I had to drive a different car today (one that is slightly underpowered) and very basic.It didn't matter.It got me to class safely (but late) and it got me home through the rain and the traffic which was caused by idiots who have no idea how to drive in the rain.

*sigh*

Was gonna talk about my band instead.We went jamming last weekend.Rashid was late coz he was stuck in a traffic jam on his way back from the movies with my mum and my other brothers.Shu and I met up with Ayie and Kamal at the studio about 10 minutes before jamming.

The first thing Kamal asked Shu was "do you know how to play the drums?" Nope.Shu is very much a bassist and a guitarist and he doesn't play the drums.I do but I can't play coz I had to sing and having the rythm guitar is important (for me) for timing purposes.

While waiting for Rashid-san,Ayie and Kamal took turns at the drums.Ayie couldn't keep a consistant tempo while Kamal couldn't play along with the high hat.Also,the song was cut short coz Kamal wasn't at his guitar to fill up the guitar solos.

Rashid arrived half and hour later and was slightly pissed off with the movie.He went straight at the drumset and started jamming our playlist.Shu then took pictures with Ayie's DSLR to be posted at our site.We have yet to schedule a proper photoshoot.

Next meeting,4pm,Saturday at Ayie's workplace........makan free???Maybe?

gearbox failure

Nothing scares the shit outta me more than reading "gearbox failure" on the indicator screen while driving!Yes,yes.....it's hard to go about with machines which are smarter than you even when they're not designed in such ways.

*sigh*

Was on my way to class this morning.Shu drove while Ash was in the back seat.We got to the toll house at about 9:35am-ish and just as we passed the booth,the indicator beeped and read out "gearbox failure".That meant that the car wouldn't let us shift into any other gears including setting it to neutral.

*double sigh*

Shu managed to pull over on 2nd gear.There was no way (IN HELL) that we would be able to reset the gearbox (coz Fiat would lose their customers otherwise) and even if we do know how to do it,we might risk resetting the entire system.

So there we were stranded on the roadside from 9:45am all the way to 11:30am.Called my mum coz I didn't wanna risk damaging the car.She was trying to get our mechanic to get a tow truck.Since the car is a regular front wheel drive and it's locked in 2nd gear,we had to wait for a tow truck that could pull the car up instead of having to push it up onto the platform.

Amin Reza decided to cover for me for the quiz this morning.I owe him one.Missed my EAP class at 2pm coz I was getting sick from my empty stomach and the heat and all.Shu was sick and Ash decided to ditch his 2pm class since everyone else voted to have brunch and rest at home till about 2:30pm.

I didn't get much sleep coz I promised my lecturer I'd present my project today.Got a pretty good bashing for about an hour of class time.I worked my ass off (with Shu's help) for that project and it still wasn't good enough.Maybe I failed to cover all the flaws.Maybe I just didn't see the whole thing the way my lecturer did.Oh well.......

Hung around with Shu for a bit.We saw some pretty awesome mini guns which loads on ballbearings!I'd opt for the 0.25mg ballbearings over the 0.12mg!To be fair,both Shu and I shall have to use the same gun.We opted for the AK-47 mini!Yey!New toys to be added to our wishlist!And who are we planning to shoot?.........hehehe.........

P.S.:I think Kecik is still a bit upset with what I did to him this morning.Hopefully,he'll get over it and start hanging out like always again ;)
