I only game when I have friends with me. Now I can't feel the impact more severe than ever before.
After MIA-ing for like, a couple of months, I lost touch of some other gaming "ka ki's". And then, Vin went to Indonesia, almost devoid of any internet connections.
Blardy hell.
I was so bored I nearly went mad.
I ought to get more life, and go work longer hours instead -.-
Hehs. Just joking.

The 17" rims sure know how to go "boing" over road humps. :D Happy issues aside, there's one incident that bugged me terribly today. And go "tsk, tsk" over some motor shop dealers. I wonder how long are they going to survive.
Due to poor workmaship problems that caused unslightly scratches where the tyre screws were, Dad complained to Komoco Motors and they referred him to the original workshop that did his 17" rims. However, some unpleasant incident occurred there.
They originally offered to change the whole set of rims for $120 to a new set. The new set was more expensive, hence the extra charges.
But after their calculations showed them that well, they were making terrible losses due to the scratched rims, and replacing ours for $120, they decided to up to price.
They apparently sabotaged my dad by scratching the old rims furthur, (how clever) and hoping dad will pay an additional $100 for them to spray paint the old rims.
They said that it was due to dad's driving and he somehow scratched both the tyres at the back of the car. Dad felt that it was ridiculous, and decided to tell them to stop replacing the new ones, and put the old ones back. He also offered $50 for their troubles.
It is also funny, and suspicious, is that those were the back tyres they were complaining about. Firstly, the first 2 tyres they removed, and had problems with were the first 2 that they replaced.
My brother and I, being the newbies we were, didn't know how tyres are changed, so we stood there, looking at them work at the 2 back tyres, also the tyres in question, until both of it were done. Then while they were starting work on the front set of tyres, dad decided to get them drinks and all. So we went to Shell to get them drinks for the trouble and all.
Little did we know of the troubles that ensued after that. They started to complain about the tyres, the back ones.
Here are my questions.
- Why didn't they complain of the scratches while they started work on it? Afterall, we were there THE ENTIRE TIME. Those were the FIRST 2 they removed. Why not complain IMMEDIATELY when they sensed that there were problems?
- I washed the tyre rims the night before. And didn't note any scratches on the back tyres, except at the screw area. Ironically, the 2 tyre rims in problem, was the ones I washed. Unless I'm blind, even so, I can feel.
I don't think the scratches were there before, and my dad thinks that it might have been done by them on intention, which was also what I was thinking about.
Then, someone stepped in and offered a price. Dad paid another $60 for something he did not do.
I was very mad initially and wanted to post this entire thing on STomp forums, which will, marr their reputation for abit. But I relented eventually. No point. What will I gain from it. Besides, what goes around comes around. They'll get what they deserve eventually. Dad was okay with it and said it was common practice, and he was not surprised.
On account that they lost quite a couple of hundreds due to the scratches their workers made, I'll let it rest. It's not like they wanted it or gained alot from the transaction anyways.
Plus, if I am really out to wreck them, say if I'm dad. I'd insist on replacing the old ones back, drive immediately to Komoco Motors to complain, and call the newspapers and post it on the forums, and maybe complain to CASE.
In that way, good game man.
Anyway, I'm tired and deadbeat now, else this might be on STomp already. Afterall, I can be quite hot headed.

Today, I went to MOS, and DID NOT ORDER A LARGE ICED MILKTEA.
241108
Dad got the new car yesterday. And he liked it alot. The boot was larger, the sound system better, the car ride smoother and quieter, and he liked the 17" sports rims. He tested them out and felt that the turning radius is better.
Hell. I don't give a damn but the car's audio system has so much better bass than the old one!
And that's what I'm concerned about.
I didn't get anything at Taka, despite the $100 voucher. I saw this handcarry luggage thingy that's Hello Kitty, but it costs like, $95.95. D:
Seriously I don't think it's worth it, despite it being cute, Hello Kitty and large. ):
Oh well, shall go shop for things like uhh. T-shirts or what.
My brother got this Lego set! :D Blardy expensive. I didn't know Legoes can cost like, a couple of hundreds. -.-" His was almost $90. My other brother had his eye on the $200+ one!
Oh wow. o.o

I want a haircut and a hair dye :D
I just can't wait to go to Takashimaya after we get the car tomorrow.

Actually, I feel priviledged that I know there'll be somebody's who's going to take special care of me during the Japan trip.
Special care, meaning you know, additional attention.
I realised that, these few days, I've been doing a lot of face-palming and wanting-to-bang-head-on-keyboard.
Is it me, or is it that everyone is more or less doing the same thing?
I don't want to be mental!
On a positive note, I'm feeling much much better than yesterday, and I hope I can guarantee you not running around with a bitchy attitude like yesterday's.
For that I apologise to anyone who's been inconvenienced by me. Rest assured that it's the first and the last time o.o
I've never met anything like myself until yesterday either D:

I THINK I AM HAVING A REALLY BAD DAY TODAY.
But I'm trying to keep it under control.
It's my hobby to kill crabs?
Monday, November 17, 2008
My dad nearly tried to kill me by coming along on one of the high elements and stretching the ropes so far I had to tip-toe and turning my legs into jelly.
But when he finally helped me by staying backward abit and holding the top wire down, and when I finished and he said
"That's my girl."I felt I accomplished something great, and was never happier.
I'm not a fan of blogging alot since I changed my style eons ago. So I'll simplify everything.
Trip there - Saw a car flipped onto its side. Dad deduced that car braked suddenly when it was going around the bend, thus it flipped. My guess is that that's a drifter wanna-be and the driver wasn't pro enough, so he/she lost control of the car and it flipped over. It's leaning 180 degrees against a lamp post. Go figure.
Arrival - Bro realised that was the camp place, while I wondered the reasons for heavy rain whenever we went to Kota Tinggi. Chilled out at the resort while the rest made plans for the day.
Boring time - Dad drove around. I love the roads in Malaysia.
Dinner time - The food was not bad.
After dinner - Fireflies time. For the first time, I took the school bus. Bas Sekolah. Seats were more inclined and was more comfy than I imagined. Long bus ride.
Fireflies time - Took a boat to look at the fireflies. Was disappointed when I saw nothing initially. Thinking might be a waste of RM20 for the trip when I realised that the fireflies were Christmas decos wanna-bes when I saw them slacking on the trees. Fly fireflies! Lazy asses.
Some did fly by. Dad caught a few when they flew in front of him. The kids on board sitting behind was simply delighted. Dad asks if we want to keep the ones he caught. I just told him to let them go before the boat goes too far. The flies won't survive if we keep them anyway.
He let them fly home. We saw some monkeys too!
Bedtime - Showered and slept. Didn't sleep well. The air-con was freezing.
Morning - Polished and waxed the car. Other people who saw me waxing the car alone probably thought I was mad. But dad was there earlier polishing the car. Mosquitoes and houseflies bug me.
There was alot of houseflies. No kidding. -.-" We had like, close to 15 houseflies
(14 corpses, to be exact, Dad smacked them dead. Tell me how do you chill when you've got houseflies sharing a bed with you/ even irritating you?!) sharing the air-con with us, while my cousin's room had a frog sharing the air-con with them.
Bro was harrasing the geese which made a nest in the parking lot. Tell me, which sane bird will do that? It needs to go to Woodbridge.
After check-out - We went out for lunch. Saw a lizard. Dad drove. 145km/hr. Pwnt.
Heavy rain when we came back.
From now onwards, I'm going to asscociate Kota Tinggi with heavy heavy rain. Seriously.
And maybe, with houseflies too.
Houseflies Specials: Houseflies bugged us from the food tables to the rooms to the outside. It's our fault, since we left the door open for them into the rooms. But I didn't invite them into the car, so I chased them all out.

I will be unfortunately dragged to Kota Tinggi. Will be back on Monday.

My MSN is finally working again.
Tuesday, November 11, 2008
My dad's going to change the family's Sonata Gold (3rd Generation of the Sonata series) into the newer 4th Generation one.
It is touted as the updated version for 2009. But I'm not sure. Seems to me they just gave the car a facelift, inside and out.
But I like the car's door handles. They're pretty.
And I like the car salesperson too. She likes Hello Kitty too (:
Heheh.
No more papers.
No more mugging.
No more brain-dead zombies cramming information into my head.
No more books.
No more fear.
Its just....
More fun, and more life. :D
For now.

Out of my character now to do such stuff. But well. I spy
Ju and
Xy throwing me the same stuff. Not really feel good that I owe them these things per
se. But I'll do it for leisure too.
I'm a lazy sheep. So I'm going to shortcut everything. Plus,
Xy missed out on
Novemeber!
Hehs. Whatever. So I'm going to:
"Pick your birth month →Strike out anything that doesn't apply to you →Bold the five-ten that best apply to you →Copy to your blog,
livejournal,
xanga,
wordpress →Tag 10 people from your friends list →"
MARCH: Attractive personality. Sexy. Affectionate. Shy and
reserved. Secretive. Naturally honest, generous and sympathetic. Loves peace and
serenity. Sensitive to others. Loves to serve others. Easily angered.
Trustworthy. Appreciative and returns kindness.
Observant and assesses others. Revengeful. Loves to dream and
fantasize. Loves traveling. Loves attention. Hasty decisions in choosing
partners. Loves home decors. Musically
talented. Loves special things. Moody.
It all depends on how you look at me. I return kindness, often. I don't like to owe people anything. Except when things are really beyond my control.
Definitely not revengeful, but I do bear a grudge sometimes. And for quite a long time too. Just don't remind me, and I won't hold anything against you for long.
You can say, I used to have an extremely short-tempered person. But experiences over the years, mellowed me. Kind of.
Now. It's that Letter Meme thing.
-> How you do the Letter Meme:
Dear Xy:
I don’t really know how to tell you this, but
our romance is over. I think I realized it
when your dwarf bit me in women's clothing, and I saw you
sit on my best friend. I’m sure you’re
middle-class enough to understand that
Santa doesn't exist. I’m returning our
matching Snoopy bibs to you, but I’ll keep your
mom as a memory. You should also know that I
never openly mocked to hate the Boston Celtics.
Greetings to your freaky family,
Mehs

Just when I somehow, and I have no idea how, I managed to adjust the game displays back in order, MSN goes out of whack.
Not even re-downloading the fricking thing is working now.
And I seriously need to get that file from a friend now. Like seriously serious.
Never so serious when MSN dies on me before.

2 days left.
P.S My MSN won't work.
Audi is fucked up. I'm dead sure.
After like
re downloading for like, 5 times, and it didn't work.
Plus. Looking at the various guides, they have like, a million on
PPF (
exaggerating), it only made me more blur.
Especially those aimed at sacarsm. What for?Doesn't seem to me some really want to help. (: Not in their mentality to help a person til they're through.
But I get it, some people are real bitches sometimes. (Both the helper and the helped)
I want to go to Japan! (:
I'm really
not looking forward to homestay.

It's time for us to know that Os are nearly over, save for one last (okay make it 2) subjects left.
I survived! And I hope I won't die when I see the results next year.
Pretty please no.

I want to get a PSP.
No really, after saying no since that blardy thing was released, I actually want it. Lol
