Some more vids

Here's a few shot of me on the track.




This is a vid of how it looks like in the car.


For those who have motion sickness, please avoid watching. Then the next one is the money shot where I was being aggressive and it was a nice vid... guess which car I am.

A Day at the trackssssss

No silly, it wasn't the race course tack, but the car track.... And oh yea... for those who think of the F1 and so on, it is also not the same. I love speed and driving the car to its limits, but I am also an old man who does not see any importance in showing off and or bragging about things. If I am good, people will surely say it... So no need to brag about it... For me, I like to drive on the track because it allows me to explore the car and how I can drive it. Here is a shot of me coing out of the pits... The vids may not be in sequence, but I will try my best.

I must be getting old

You know you are getting old when you do not enjoy a lot of things that you used to.... or maybe u are getting wiser??? I would rather call it old lah...

Anyway, I will be going to Sepang for a race because there is an invitation for all Evo 10's to do a few rounds there.... Wooohoooo.... But unlike previous times and episodes, I did nothing much this time.... In fact.... I did nothing... hehehehe... While the others were setting their cars up, changing their tires, programming and so on, I am just sitting by... Why? Because I am old... no lah... there is nothing much to set up if you are not going to be aggressive and not going to attack the track like a maniac... I will just drive at my own pace and enjoy myself lor....

In fact.... yesterday, I tried to drive at high boost, which is supposed to give my car around 380 horses... I chickened out very soon.( ai serious... I heard round objects drop on the road when I was stepping hard on the accelerator and I am pretty sure they came from me....)... Why do I need so much power and why do I want it? So I am happy with my car as it is and even on the track, I have nothing to prove.... I must be getting old....

It is just like womanising and gambling... I have not bought 4D in a jolly long time... Not just weeks, but months... It is only when the inspiration strikes me that I will buy and if I do not hit... I will curse at myself for being mis-inspired.... hehehehehe... And I have not bought Toto for years... I think gambling is really not worth it, though some people may think that it is their chance out of the sh*t that they are in.

Womanising is also the same... I wud rather spend time and money in my car or family than a lady.... Of course the 2 ladies, wife and Tina will be having all they want and need. But when it comes to having an affair or another girl... I also feel that it is not worth it... Some guys may want to have some form of thrill and or a feeling of a girl loving them in both emotional and physical way... However, perhaps I am getting old.... Man I must be old... I am repeating myself... hahahahaha..But seriously, why do men do it??? My wife gives me everything I need and my daughter takes away everything I have... so why need another girl to do the same things? hahahahaha.

Some guys have ego, but being short and plump all my life, I do not have any ego.... Nothing to be egotistical about lah.. hahahaha.... Drive a hot car?? So what... I am paying through the nose for it.... Have a hot wife... she is not so hot in bed..... Earn a lot of money... man... you have not seen me spend my money.... So nothing great lah...

Anyway, back to the race... Many say that it is dangerous and or exciting... depending on who says it lah.... But the good thing is that there will be very few cars and i will be among the last ones.... A long long way away from the rest.... In case the front cars collide and then I am unable to brake in time... and I do not want to be in front bcoz I do not want any pressure from young hot blooded kids.....I am an old man who has a weak heart... hahahahahaha....

But seriously though, I am feeling my age... But do not wori, I will not be enjoying second childhood and so on anytime soon.... my first childhood has not even finished yet.

Anyway.... I was realy lucky in the sense that I have added some things to my car, but... But... BUT they were all free..... yess freeeeee..... why..... barter trade... heee heeee... I got a new set of brakes..... which are only slotted.... why??/ because my fren got his set and they were only slotted.... mine has holes in them some more... so it looks nicer... ok lor... changeeeeeee....Then I have a HKS painted on my intercooler... did I buy it? Nope... the garage painted it on for freeeee.... why bcoz I said it would be their advantage...Since they are the main distributor of HKS products... hehehehehe...

Then my friend gave me a set of exausht guards because I have been treating him for dinners and lunches and so on.... not bad hor???? Must be nice to be a nice old man... hahahahaha

Anyways... I am looking forward to having fun on Sat man....

A lemon or a Cherry?

Good question isn't it? My "ex" has so many recalls that I will become a regular at the dealer because the problems have to be fixed. My SST gearbox is also so hard to fix that only the dealer will be able to plonk in a new gearbox if mine blows up.... That is why I am biting the bullet and going to them for regular servicing. Thank god I am not driving a merc or beemer, but the servicing fee is still quite hefty!!! So did I get a lemon or is it still a cherry? The jury is still out on that because I myself do not know.

It is just like the recent controversy of the HDB, the HDB says that they are providing the bare necessities that we require and even Minister Mah says that in his time, a 3 room flat was a palace. Well, brother, I am from the same era.... Yes we did live in rather squalid conditions where water was taken from the kampung well and it was a scary adventure to go out in the middle of the night to pee or take a dump... Especially when you have a stupid mother who says "beware of the pontianak" when you go out!!! But brother, if you ask a kid how he shits now, he or she will say a toilet bowl.... Most of the post 1980's batch do not even know that a squatting toilet ever existed. Well, the 1980's batch is now the young new generation who are looking for houses. Of course they will want to have better facilities than what they had before. If they came through a childhood where they had to run all the way to the outhouse and be aware of the pontianak, then they would know what a palace is!!!.... Again, lemon or cherry???

And talking about pontianaks, we were really a simple bunch of goondoos back then. Being told that some ghost or ghoully would scare the heck out of us back then. Imagine, energizer rabbit told me one fine dark... scary morning before I walked through a slightly forested place, next to a river to school... "Be careful hor... people say a pontianak escaped from Malaysia hor"... Seriously I think her lack of brain power sorta was a long term sort of thing that came from when I was young... It may not be Alzheimer's dementia... But she is just plain stupid?

Haizzzzz. Lemons and cherry's... No matter how sweet something is in the beginning, it will still become sour in the end... heee heee....

And talking about sour, just a few days ago, I was really suspicious that my wife's milk..... The reason, we chinese have a saying... "on the 7th month, the baby will sit down, the 8th she will crawl and 9th she will start to sprout teeth". So Tina is beginning to sit and my father in law bought her a chair and she was trying it out. And it tickled her so pink that she was laughing out so loudly and for so long that I suspected that my wife's milk was fermented and Tina was drunk... Hee heee... I really miss my two darlings.....

This is stupid!!!!

I almost hate Nokia now... I lost all my contacts again!!!... sob sob sob... so pls everyone.... pls sms me yr numbers as soon as you read this... if not.. do not blame me for not contacting u... but of course for some of you who think that I will not be contacting you and disturbing you... I have my ways of finding out... so be a good boy or girl and sms me before I come and find you.......

Anyways, life is really interesting... I have been eating more packed food... most probably because I have been busy, but also perhaps because mom is not really feeling good and also the new maids are not real great cooks... So I buy food home and eat.... Man I wish my wife was here.... at least I will have properly cooked food.....

Anyway.... do you remember Homer Simpson and how he goes "Dope!!!" everytime he screws up??? I had a night full of "Dope!!!" a few nights ago... What happened was that I love my packed rice to be drowning in curry.... Perhaps I am getting old and do not like solid food or perhaps the fact that most cooked rice is not dat nice.... So I asked for extra curry to hide the flavour.... and while at home, I was trying to put it onto my tray to bring it into the room to eat... and I poked my finger through the base of the darned styrofoam box.... Curry came pouring out thru the bottom.... "Dope!!!!" and so I turned it over in the hopes that it would not run out... but "dope!!!" the whole pack, food, rice and stuff fell thru the top..... DOOM on me MIKEY!!!!! Luckily... I pride myself in having a clean kitchen top and floor... so like the satay bee hoon incident... it was scrape scape.. curse curse... mumble grumble and I had a pretty unhappy dinner.....

Hehehehehehe

Pure Madness???

I read with great sadness.... the news that our great MM now regrets having made a policy to force us, the children of the late 60's and 70's to learn a second language. It is ok to learn a second language but to be penalized for not being good at it???? How many of us had to run to overseas uni's because we were just not proficient enough in our second language to go to the next level?? How much did our parents sacrifice to enable us to go overseas? At that time there were also only 2 uni's in Sillypore, how many of us could get in? Night time and part time courses in Uni and other schools to enable us to get our degrees were also non existent... And to top it all off, what is this bloody obsession over degrees in the first place anyway??? Have a cert and you are smart??? Ooohhhhh... that is the biggest mistake one can make in life man... And he who assumes that because he has 7 "A" and is a superior being is an idiot!@!!!

But not knocking anyone or anything now... So now how??? Brown cow?? Will the gahmen pays our poor parents back for the money they spent on the lost generation? We are the lost generation for sure... Neither here nor there.... All results of social and educational experiments that in hindsight were wrong. 2 is enough is also another big gripe I have... now we do not have enough and have to import foreign talents. Our reliance on foreigners of all colours and races is amazing!!!

I was walking down the bottom of my block and I met PRC and Philippino.... Our heartland is not our heartland any more. I am not saying that it is wrong.... but hey... what about us who went through hell and back... in the educational system, in the army and now in society??? What do we get? But then like I have always said, I have no need or any want to ask for anything from anyone or anything.... I will survive on my own and earn my own keep.... I do not want to be called... "poor thing"

More Pics of my little baby

Here are some more pictures of my little baby... But u know wat? I will not spoil her. I am not like some of the parents here who will do everything for their children. My intention is to give her the basics and then allow her to grow from there.

Actually talking about that, I was just thinking about the law the gahmen will iniate making it a law for children to look after their parents... What happens when the parents become demented due to old age and are then like a child? Since we have a law to look after aged parents but not childish parents, then how?

Hehehe... for me, I will look after my family... period... Be they old or young, think old or think young, I will look after all of them. If not, then I will be a monkey's uncle.... Luckily there are no other people in my family, especially the children who are born in the year of the monkey... But then if there are, they will be 3 cycles away from me or more... scary man... each cycle is 12 years... so that is how old I am now... Man... It is scary!!!

As for the energizer rabbit, she is enjoying the attention given to her because of her medical status. But for me, I really hate it when someone says to me "Oh you are so poor thing".. Maybe I am just realistic, but to have someone say that I am poor thing will mean I need the sympathy of someone and that is what I do not want. Help or not, I will want to depend on my own. And I will want to do things on my own... not depend on others... So please hor dear readers... do not say "Poor thing" to me hor....

It is just like one of the old women who was mistakenly photographed by a newspaper going around collecting cardboard boxes. They thought that she was homeless because her children did not want her... But in fact, she chose her own life... Maybe I should point them to energizer.... Since she loves being the "poor thing", she will paint a picture of us abusing her and how she is in such a "poor" state. After all, she was angry that I asked her frens to tell her to be careful with her spending. Hey.... At least $150 a week on traditional medicine, $600 a month or more on chemo drugs, another 200-300 on consultation and another 500 on mahjong... Yeaps... we don print money, but we sure as hell have a heck of a lot of money man.... A normal person would be really really sorry for having cost so much to stay alive man....

But that is her and I am me... I will do what I can to make the last years... no matter how many for her to be as comfortable as possible.

In an airplane... wat would you do?

You know.... just before taking off, there is this really boring video about if in a "situation" what should you do... but have you ever wondered what you would do?

1) In the event of sudden depressurization, air masks will fall from the ceiling. Please put your own on before helping the children:

First of all, nowadays, bloody sillyporeans treat their children better than they treat themselves. My sis already said that she will put her children's on first before her own... She does not understand the basic rule that if you are not able to look after yourself, you cannot look after anyone else. So most of them will say "screw this!!! I gonna make sure my bloody investment lives on first!!!".

But lets face it, if there is a bang and air is being sucked out and air masks are dangling, I think my first action will be to check my seat belt... I am short and not sure if the bloody mask will reach me if I were just to grab it sitting down... If people are flying left and right out the airplane... I think I will risk hypoxia than to be a hero and release the seat belt and grab the mask. Only when everything is settled, then slowly grab the mask and take deep breaths... Hey... sudden depressurization... meaning air is being sucked out... just hold your bloody breath lah....

2) In the event of an emergency landing... Please assume the brace position:

Yea right.... I am about to die and I have to assume either the position with my arms outstretched or lean down and hug my legs??? I would rather find some pretty chick and hug her instead... after all, we are gonna die and why not die with a smile and happiness in the heart. Maybe grab the stewardess???

3) Please put on your life vests but do not inflate it inside the plane.
Uuuuuhhhhhh.... YOu know how kia su some idiots are... not only will they be inflating their vests inside, but they will also be grabbing whatever extras they can and wear 3 or 4 vests... Why not... can float better mah.... For me I will still grab a stewardess.... Why not float wif someone u can rabba at the same time. Don care lah... sink lor.... at least u go wif a smile..

4) The slides can become life rafts in the case of a water landing.
Yea... right.... If I am not mistaken, the ends should not have walls because if not, wen u are sliding, you will come to an adrupt stop!!! So won't water be seeping over the top and bottom part of the slides???? Not me man... I am grabbing a stewardess man.....

5) Please do not wear sharp or high heel shoes and slide down the slide.

Yeaaaaa ok... I am a guy... why the hell will I be wearing high heels.... oooooohhh... I forgot I am short... hehehehehe

6) Please leave everything behind and exit the aircraft....

Right... Then if picked up by some fishing boat and they cannot ascertain my citizenship, (being able to speak with a lah does not mean I am a Sillyporean... in as much as being able to speak with an American accent does not mean u are a better person) and what if I end up being a stateless person with no money and waiting in some camp or hospital??? Besides... even though being short and fat are pretty distinctive features... I would still like to be identified.... Hmmmm maybe better not grab a stewardess because if my body is found hugging a beautiful babe... wifey will curse me till the end of days........

7) If there is smoke, the cabin will have lights on the floor to lead you to the exits......

I wonder which genius came up with that thing? Kinda cool... but goondoos will not being following the instructions lah... They will be running on top of everyone trying to get out... Do not forget hor.... we are sillyporeans hor... Kia su can also equal kia see...

Screw this man... I will grab a stewardess and then run man.....

8) The nearest exit need not be the one in front of you.

Aba den??? But lets face it lah... in a panic situation, who will have such a clear mind as to coolly consider where the nearest exit will be.... front or back??? We will scream and run like headless chickens and then go for the exit we can see..... For me, I will be grabbing a stewardess....

As you can see, I have been really flying too much liao.

Hmmmmmm...

A wierd thing happened to me today. For the avid readers, they will ask, " so what else is new". However, it was wierd in the sense that I was clearly the wrong guy and yet, a Ang Moh couple walked up to me and asked me where a particular mosque was. I am not being racist or what, but you can ask me where a temple is and I may not be able to answer at all. So what happened was that I pointed out that I was not really the best guy for the job, but I do remember a mosque somewhere nearby and pointed the directions to it. I do hope that they got to where they wanted to go.

For me, I try to be helpful as much as I can. It is just me, but sometimes, I feel that it could be a bad thing if we are not suited for the task. For example, if someone wanted to go shopping, I would be the last person you should ask. Or if someone wanted to go somewhere, my sense of places is also really bad.... I need even a GPS sometimes just to get home... and Sg is so small, if you keep driving around, sooner or later you will get back to square one.Or at least close to where you started. All roads lead to Rome was the ancient saying... In our country, all roads lead almost to no where.... Hey we are only no more than 25km long and 15km high.... Its not a big country...

Anyways, at least my stupid old car is now on its final legs and will be really gone by this weekend and the next question will be how the hell am I gonna repay the money for getting rid of it. 36k is not a small sum by any standards and how to pay for it will be the question. It does not matter how I get the money or where, but I will have to repay it. My pride is way too big and I always pay my debts.

You know, it is a good thing I do not gamble or waste money on cars or women anymore. I just do not understand how some guys can do it. I think thst perhaps it is because I see the end and the goal and that is why I am able to "not" do it.

But in so saying, it will be interesting to see how life will be changed by the IR's because people will have an additional avenue of "spending" their money. Also, in my opinion, the darker side of life will rear its ugly head and a lot of people will be affected. How I mean by this is simple. Many still consider a windfall from gambling as the way out. If I am dirt poort and I need to get out of the rut, a win at the lottery is an opportunity out. But how much will they have to "invest" to stand a chance for the win is another problem all together. to spend a thousand to get a hundred thousand may seem like pretty good odds, but if you cannot even afford a hundred, then the odds are not good at all.

Then if you have spent your last hundred and are desperate, where will you turn to? Who will be there? The loan sharks and other elements. So I think that it is a vicious cycle. This is a cycle not many can get out of.

So I do hope that the people out there take care and not overspend what they do not. Cheers and peace out one and all.

She is going to be gone

Was what we had, just a dream? I spent a huge fortune on her and will spend another fortune on her, but was she ever to give me the satisfaction? How will I feel when she is truly gone? Will I be able to give her up? To feel her beneath me, it was heaven. But perhaps it was all not for me? Was I a fool? Was I just being too silly? Sob Sob sob sob sob.......

Now back to reality.... no it was not a girl hor.... It may sound like a girl.... but it is actually the old car that I had, the Ralliart Lancer that I gave my whole life to... heee heeeee.... I am now really borrowing the funds to get rid of her... But it is with a sentimental feeling and a bit of nostalgia. Hopefully I will be able to clear her by next week and finally be able to be free of her and have only one car. It is not that I don't like my new baby. I do love her very much, but I am a sentimental SOD.

I do not know but I cannot bring this sort of feeling to a human being. If I love someone, if she wants to go, then go lorrrrrrrr...... It may sting, but it will definitely not hurt as much as letting go of my toys. Even if my wife and baby say they do not want me anymore, then let them go lorrrrrrrrr.... Or even any love toy or extra marital affair. I can spend shagloads of money on them, but my emotional attachment will be not that great. If they wish to leave, then so be it. It is just like my ex, she wanted to chicken out of a 4 year relationship, I let her... In the end, I married the greatest woman I can find... And even if this woman wants to leave, I will allow her to do so too.... I can remember there was one time on our first year, it was April Fool's day and she wanted to play a joke on me.... She started the conversation by "Dear... I think we better call it quits... It is too difficult to have a long distance affair".... Well guess what??? No tears, no wails nothing.... I was cool and calm and told her that if she found someone new, she is free to choose him and that I knew it would be difficult and that is why I was willing to tough it out. If she were too chicken shit to tough it out with me, then too bad...... hehehehe.... It really pissed her off big time.

So that is why I am wierd in a way. Perhaps I am too old and or set in my ways... I am happy being alone and doing my own things. So even if I love someone, it is always only a matter of the degree or the depth of love. Man.... am I wierd.

Anyways, sorry for the false alarm... hehehehehehehehe

Happenings and comings and goings

First of all, any frens or relatives who changed their numbers within the last 2 years, 2007 and 2008, please send me an sms with your number because I lost all my previous data when I changed phones... so pls pls pls... sms me hor.

Anyway, I have been flying around like a dog without a home and am really quite tired out now. Like I said "I am getting too old for this shit". But other than that, my baby is driving my wife bonkers... I think it is because there is no one else to help care for the baby and of course being a new mother, she is also extra careful about a lot of things. I got the easy and lucky end of the stick I guess.But do not worry, I will do my best as a daddy when we are together again.

I only hope that my next child, will be a boy because like I mentioned before, having the youngest child being a girl will mean that daddy here will have to spoil her and that is really not what I want to do. But I have noticed that no matter what happens,most of the guy frens I know really do spoil their smallest kids especially if they are girls... Sori hor... I am not knocking girls down hor.

Anyway, so back to baby. Seems like she can now flip over multiple times and this is driving my wife crazy because she has to ensure that there is proper padding for little dynamo to do so... Also while she is dreaming (dynamo that is) she will whimper or cry out and then wifey will wake up and wonder wat is happening I guess that this is all part of growing up.

I am just wondering how some people cope with it. Because we have a friend who divorced her husband quite soon after having her daughter. The reason being that he had mother complex... But I do not think it is sexual, only thing is that he really listened to everything his mom said and so they had to divorce...

I know of another fren who is now in the midst of such a situation, but luckily they have not gotten married. It is sad lah... I mean that sometimes there is a need to listen to your parents, but if it is about your wife who you want to live the rest of your life with, I guess you have to be able to make the balance.

I also feel that parents should be able to let their children go. I mean... someone asked me if I would allow my daughter to live with a guy before they are married. And my answer is yess.... most definitely. The reason? Because you will never know a person truly unless you have lived with him or her. And if you do not live with him or her and get married, then find out you cannot stand the way he snores, or the way he pees everywhere but the bowl, and want to divorce, it will be too late.

Lets face it, a man being divorced is not a problem, as long as he has money, he can get divorced and re-married. A woman will find it a bit harder... As you may well know... I may be conservative, but I also try to think way ahead... But of course if my girl says she wants to live in with her boyfriend and she is only 18... she will get such an asse whooping, her nice young butt will not forget it.


K... gotta goes for nowsssssss.... Ciaossssss..
