Life has always been thoguh to be a bitch, but from that bitch there are some hidden gem to be found. These gems however requires alot of effort before it can be found. Well i know up to a certain extent on how to look for these gems of course, but it definitely takes some time for me to do so. Life has certainly been a bitch to me, but i have to make do with what i got in hand i suppose. First off, my Touch n Go card expired~! Which then lead me to the banging of the bar, as i didnt had much time to stop. I had to reverse my car to pay the toll. I did not want to avoid paying 50 cents. I was told that my Touch n Go card has expired by the staff and that i had to get it replaced. I didnt believe it, so i tried at the next toll booth which i then had to reverse and drove to the cash toll booth. That wasted about 5 minutes because the toll booth was built in a weird manner that i had to reverse maybe about 50-100 metres back. Well no worries, i reached hartamas 5 minutes before 12 which allowed me to enjoy my lunch at Sugimoto as their 1st customer of the day (i think)~! I didnt really enjoy my lunch this time around, maybe because of the exam that afternoon itself. Straight after lunch, i headed to the exam hall.
My mind has been quite off lately. I am not sure why, but because of this, i accidentally left my pencil case in my car and i only realise this when i was at my seat for the exam. I had to rely on the 2B pencil to complete my exam paper. I even asked for a second pencil as my first pencil was blunt and i had trouble writing with it. A sharp pencil definitely helped me thru the exam. I hope they accept my writing in pencil~! After the exam, i was totally care free and could not be bothered about the exam any longer. Of course i had a good chat with miss SC and her beloved mister Er. Had a good laugh at miss SC’s expense and also discussed about mange and anime with mister Er. Kinda had an early dinner in Hartamas of Maggi goreng with egg and that cost me RM4.80~!!!! I was extremely shocked by the price~! I do not want to ever patronise those mamak ever again~!!!! Shit expensive sial~!! Mamak in Hartamas should be banned~!! Well, i saw mister RJ with his wife and brother and had a chat with them to find out that the last remaining apprentice quit. That was pretty big news for me, so i went over to hear about it only to enter the shop with the discussion about an insane customer. Well at least i got some news about him (the apprentice).
On Saturday, i kinda experienced a horrible lack of sleep, but did not suffer much on the short temper but rather a quite severe headache. But i had to stay awake and not take any naps as i had to wait for the guy who would fix my house autogate. Other than that, my day was pretty dull. Dinner with Sue Lin as well as miss HS and miss R at Pizza Uno in Centre Point was pretty alright. Had some good catching up but the drinks were very pricey and so was the food, but the food was pretty good. A lil sad that the portion was a little small.
Going onto Sunday, i skipped my breakfast, which was a huge mistake. Suffered pretty much almost the entire day, but not that much i guess. Food is generally getting pretty expensive~! Whats wrong damn it. Next on my mind is my is the fucking retarded neighbour with an ugly whore witch wife. They are totally retarded and stupid and also show offs. They are truly retarded with no brains. Burning money for the dead, but then, never have a lid to cover the burning stuff, end up all the debris flew into my house, and my house was just cleaned~! And the ugly whore wife say, not her fault its the wind. If you have cover then wont fly la, means its your FUCKING FAULT~! Are you that retarded to not be able to use a cover? Indeed a true retard to the core. Haihz, i feel like slapping them with COW SHIT~! I hope they rest in pieces in the next hour or so. This is to allow the peace and tranquility back into the neighbourhood~! Ever since they left their so called “bungalow” to stay in terrace house, i harbour a deep hatred towards them which continues to grow every time they do something that pisses me off.
Alright, back to Sunday. I was busy surfing the net in the morning which later i went to office to check my email if there is any work for me to do during the coming week. Unfortunately there were no work, but hell of alot of emails. After which i headed to Hartamas for lunch at Old Town. I must say that their food is declining in quality significantly while the drinks either maintain or gotten a little better. Then i head up to Borneo Ink to lepak there while i wait for my mother to return from Penang. There, i thought i could lepak there like a fool, but i ended up helping alot at the front desk with the sudden huge number of clients coming in as the back up front man as Boy was pretty busy piercing. There were alot of customers that day. Pretty busy in the shop that day. Then went off to fetch my mother from my aunt’s place, while being a delivery guy, delivering a table and chairs that were brought over to my house for CNY which has to be returned to my aunt.
Sunday night was spent by having dinner with my usualy gang especially since mister SH just got his brand new car, a Mazda6 2.5l. It kinda make me wanna get a new car too. Haha, he is fortunate that his car is actually a company car. His car is bloody high tech~! The car engine is started at a push of a button. Isnt that fucking cool~! But the car is pretty pricey (by my standards of course). The 2.5 litre Mazda is also bolstered with an enhanced Bose audio system and this car is pretty cheap comparing against other cars of the similar high tech functionality. Mister M was pretty shocked to see the car because he never expected that mister SH would ever get that car. But now since he has it, we can now resort to using his car as a mode of transportation when we want to go out for yamcha. Wahahaha, we chat alot bu the chat lead to mister M wanting to leave early. So we headed back not long after. So thats how my Sunday was.
My Monday however was pretty mundane without much work during the day. I ended checking out cars online. I was quite caught up by the Mitsubishi Lancer. Probably a future family car i guess. But when i wanted to head back, i certainly had some “excitement”. My car could not start~!!! It certainly made me panic. I rushed to open my bonnet and called my mother. Luckily the security huard saw this and came over offering jumper cables. I only had to find a car to assist me in the jumpstart of my car. Luckily i was able to call miss CC before she left the car park. It all happened so fast that i was in a very blur state of mind. I was suppose to fetch 2 other colleagues but ended up 1 of them helping me in jumpstarting my car successfully when i had trouble trying to jumpstart my damn car~! But it was certainly a hot trip to the mechanic, which ended up with denting my wallet by RM250 for a new battery~! I was expecting to burn a bigger hole to change the alternator, but a turn of events helped in reducing the amount from an estimate of about RM500-RM600 to a total of RM125. This will all be explained later on. Well, this certainly is an irony as i was looking for a new car to buy in maybe 4-5 years time. I guess my car got jealous and decided to act up on me.
Tuesday was another boring day of nothingness. Or rather i totally had nothing to do at all for that day. Kinda disappointing i suppose. There is work for me to do, but i cant proceed without the advance money from the company. So i just waited till i was able to get my hands on the money before proceeding. Nothing much, dull dull day. Really nothing much to do except a few minutes here and there helping the others which was no help to my chargeability.
Moving on Wednesday and Thursday, i had training for those 2 full days. Of course the training ended early on Thursday and i already gotten another staff to collect the information i need for me to do work. I did some part of the work while reserving the rest for Sunday as i had to head back to celebrate an early mother’s day dinner with my mom. Ohhh, by now i forgot to mention that another staff in my department told me that her brother was selling the alternator i needed for my car at a pretty cheap price. I cannot believe it, and quickly i consulted my mother and also requested for a quotation on the labour charges from my mechanic for installing the alternator. After settling all the others, i informed that i wanted the part and asked whether i can get it the next day (note that our company was on holiday on Friday to replace Wesak Day holiday on Saturday). She informed me it is possible. I am pretty lucky indeed. The dinner with my mom, as usual, my mom ate very little by ordering only a few different sushi. Oh i brought her to a sushi shop nearby my house (in Cheras), as it was nearby and it was my mom who choose to eat there (it is also my favourite place to eat sushi for certain reasons). The rest was pretty much just me at home surfing the internet.
On Friday, i read a little facebook status about the passing of a primary school mate of mine which was later confirmed by a call from another primary school mate of mine who i still constantly contact. That morning was a pretty quiet morning as i had roti canai and milo ice for breakfast at a mamak which has really good dhall and really kow milo ice~! Later in the afternoon i proceeded to get my alternator from my colleague and quickly make my way to my mechanic to fix the alternator. The waiting time was really long as apparently a cooling time is required before the changing of the alternator could be done. Even after a long almost one and a half hours of waiting finally the change could be made. Even then it took some time.
After changing the alternator, i rushed home to fetch my mother to KL Sentral as she was going off for a holiday. After fetching her, my primary school friend called me up about the wake of our schoolmate who passed away. I agreed on going for the wake. It really was a great catching up session with a few other primary schoolmates whom i haven seen in a long time. Like my schoolmate WW said, this brought us back together. There was quite alot of gossip talk among ourselves as we indulge in each other’s secrets as well. It was a good getting together session. But it was a depressing atmosphere towards the end of the night as some felt the lost greater than others.
The following morning (Saturday morning) my friends and myself went for the cremation ceremony. The atmosphere was truly depressing. But isnt that how death is suppose to be? Well, after the funeral in the afternoon, we had a short lunch gathering together. Which wasnt all too bad seeing as some had not slept at all clubbing. Wonderful isnt it? Hehehe, the evening and night well, again it was pretty dull i guess. I cant really remember it. Sunday morning well, had my dimsum breakfast with Sue Lin of course. From noon onwards, I kinda forgot what i did. Then near midnight i went to fetch my mother from KL Sentral. Long long day.
Now its back to work. 2 days with no work to do is getting a little too boring. Sad but true. Anywayz, i gotta go. Till next time ciaozuu~!
