When is the sale coming?
I'm thinking of a (artier, but I'm afraid it would not happen, at least in the next 5years.
Retail shops are hungry for sales. Chri5tmas trees and decors are up. And people are writing their wishlists, this time round, with budget in mind.
Me? I just have one simple wish.
Let everyone around me be happy.
Yes, that simple.
I was thinking hard on how I could achieve that goal.
Then I remember this phrase, "Love yourself before you love others."
BINGO!
In the same perspective, in order to make people happy, I need to make myself happy.
What would make me happy is a LT@-approved Remus/Supersprint/HKS/Fujitsubo exhaust.
Maybe a DVD player, with GPS and reverse camera would be nice. I heard JVC has this model.
Then throw in some more LEDs to make the interior nicer.
Light up the roads with PIAA. Put in Denzo spark plugs. Paste more stickers.
Ahh... these thoughts are making me happy. =)

Weird Happenings
What was weird was the caller. He spoke very slowly with much pauses in between, as if he was deep in thoughts. He couldn't differentiate $10k and $100k in Chinese, even though he was Mandarin-speaking. Over the phone, he said he wanted to invest the latter sum.
He told me to go to his place at a specific time, and so I did. I kept knocking the door but no one answered. His phone was engaged. Then his neighbour looked at me and said that I needed to knock harder and that he is lazy to answer the door.
I knocked for an hour before I decided to give up. I left my name card and went to meet another customer.
After my appt, I called that same guy again. After 3 phone calls, he picked up and said he didn't know it was me and he called the cops. One of the cops answered the phone and the misunderstanding was cleared.
-.-
I went back to the place and his neighbour started to shout that he was crazy. Haiz. I am not going to disclose any further, lest I breach any act. I have also decided not to do any trade for him.
What a bummer!
In any case, I was driving along Bkt Panjang Road when the corner of my eye saw someone trying to attract my attention. I wound down the windows and he asked, "Do you want speakers?"
I said no.
"Free one. Don't need to buy."
I wound up and didn't care about him.
At Tea Party this evening, I picked up Wheels Asia Oct issue and would like to share with WK the Cerato Variant model.
Time to change.

Our Road Trip
On Sunday, we met at a Shell petrol station. That was when Richard's gf realised her passport has expired, thus the couple couldn't go with us.
That didn't stop the rest of the 4 cars.
It wasn't smooth-sailing at the Tu@s checkpoint, but it would also be unfair to say there was a jam. But what was different from it from the W00dl@nd's is the cost, as well as some procedures.
After clearing the cust0ms, we headed for our first rest point for breakfast, as well as for the conversion of currencies.
After a simple breakfast, we headed for our destination at Klu@ng. We didn't go as fast as we did for our Melacca trip. But it took us awhile only before we stopped at one of the plantations there, the place where Richard and his gf had planned to go.
The view was a treat itself, with dragonfruit plants everywhere. Not that I fancy that fruit alot.
After walking up-slope,we reached a small two-storey high hut, where the view gave us an introduction to the plantation.
This view overlooks the road we took to reach this place.
And so... we continued our walk, admiring different types of plants.
By the time we finished our walk, we were dehydrated. We proceeded to the nearest cafe for a quick fix. Fresh juices!
We took another drive to... well, don't ask me. I have no idea where we went. All we did was to follow Gus'.
Anyway.... introducing WK's new ride. A Cerato.
A new addition to our collection...
After lunch, we spent some time at Kluang Parade shopping center. Dinner came very quickly after a drive through a very fun terrain with magnificient scenary.
At 7ish, we bade farewell to Kluang and hurried ourselves to the infamous causew@y jam.
Watch the video below. Amazing.

End of Week
How I wish it's rest time. But still got another Saturday to go.
Just met up with the Sub guys. Nice lot of people, though I only mixed around with the MY08 owners. Lotsa WRxes.
Coincidentally, Lancer guys are there too.
This world is getting madder. Milk from China... And now even Nissin cup noodles are being recalled.
Lotsa bargains found in W@ll Street and 5TI. Lack of funds. Sigh.
Random tots. Going to sleep.

Wash
I admit I'm lazy. I had mine cleaned after work.
Damn, I hate the jam.

Yes
Updates on Bangkok trip has to be delayed for awhile. Lotsa pictures.
TX and I organised a dinner for our group tonight and I suggested Tea Party, where we could order set meals and be able to play board games there at the same time. Games are free, and the food is value for money. Set meals are about $10. Colleagues and I frequented there, whenever mood is down. Fine, that's an excuse. But we usually overspend there, cus the scones and cakes are really good.
L0sers at the game Taboo were made to down a horrid drink.
Nights. I have to work tomorrow. There goes my Sunday. =)
Edit: I had a bad night. My shoulders are aching so much, I wish I could just remove them. Haiz. Time to get ready for work.

Party
Our cluster came in full force, dressed up as M0ng0lians. We even won the best cheer. Good fun, good food and plenty of drinks to go about.
What a start to my holiday!
See you guys soon!
