Interesting little thing, isn't it? You can read more about it through wikipedia .. Now it's called as a Carver, when it was previously known as a Vandenbrink. I know that there were cars that has only 3 wheels and all, but this is seriously interesting. The whole thing tilts sideways up to 45 degrees depending on how aggressive you are behind the wheel. If you're soft and relaxed, it wouldn't even tilt at all.
And.. my, this makes me miss the times on the bike.. XD
When we start driving, we wouldn't know how oversteer and understeer works, and how it is eventually applied to drifting and all that car component wrecking stunts.
Therefore, I was watching Top Gear, and they have simplified on how oversteer and understeer really works!
When we mention the name Clarkson, there can only be one Brit-petrol head in this world. In fact, he's well known to some Malaysian because he smashed, tore, and literally, burnt the Perodua Kelisa to ashes.
But then again, why bother with all that when Perodua is a great car manufacturer?
.. Not.
I found out at low gears with an extremely high torque, the Perodua Kancil tends to understeer a lot. In fact, when I was driving past Burma Road towards Gurney Drive/Ali mamak shop, I braked, lifted off the brakes, then pulled off a turn.
Not the sort of turn you would yank the steering wheel to hear tyres screeching, but a very smoothturn, but it resulted to a non assisted power steering Kancil to feel like as if the steering was light as a feather. The feeling was somewhat great for the hands - but the mind noted it as danger.
Quickly, I counter steered or centre-lised the steering wheel to prevent the small little bitch from sliding even more..
I was rather.. fascinated through what I went through. Although the ride wasn't as spiffy as a Camry, or let alone, a Wiralution, but the experience was unexplainable..
Then again, it went in a few rounds, noticed that the Kancil tends to understeer at the most stupidest situations. Especially during low gears and high-torque based situations -_-
Oh.. Did you know driving a car without ABS is so much fun? XD XD XD XD XD
So sue me. I'm bored to death -.-.. And Top Gear is a very very bad addiction XD
Now, as we heard and know of, Paul is currently studying Chemistry in Wangsa Maju in a local university, and I think I might know that he'll get bored in the middle of the nights mainly because, well, he's not in Penang, and I think there's no nice stuff to eat in KL too.
In fact, he wanted to take me to a place that serves smelly tofu?
I wouldn't give a shit.
But anyways, since the above is happening, I decided to share my Valentine's gold, joy, glory and .. Gold. I decided to copy everything that I've copied from Say Leng's whole collection (So far.. Too many to copy X_X... And this is just part one of his whole car junkie collection.. another 40 x 700mbs to copy when he gets back to PG..) into his super cool external HDD..
.. and I just found out that I've been copying all these files into my HDD, without realising that I've already reached a total of 19gbs.. And I'm not even done yet..
so fun wans x)
Anyways, I checked out and scanned through his HDD for anything valuable to trade.. and unfortunately, he has something that grabs my attention..
So dope wans. 616mbs of Asterix XD <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 .. and it's complete too X)
Okay lah. Last night, Panic Overdrive had a jamming session without Moe, but it was progressive unlike when a band member goes missing. Like either when the bassist, drummer or either me or Ying Kit goes missing, everything's not okay. But when Moe goes missing, we still carry on. With this chance of not screwing up and no interruptions, we completed our new song - Go, Johnny, Go.. not to be mistaken with Chuck Berry's super dope country blues Johnny B. Goode..
Wooooooo.. and I became the vocalist for last night.. Puki. LOL. Kena throat bleeding instantly.. Muahahahahahaahahahaha...
6 minutes to go until all files are transferred from my HDD to his. .X).. Super valuable lah..
THANK YOU SAY LENG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oooo.. Paul also has MTV videos.. So nice wans.. Wait.. I just came across this group called "Pussycat Dolls"..??.. Never seen them in flesh before, and I only heard of Sway.. Which was really good, by the way!
Oo... ooo.. wow... I see.. wimmin..
...... I think I just got an orgasm... ooooooooooooooooooo....
Mood:Blur Listening To:Schizzow feat YonLynn - Love Letter
It's been a week since my brother changed the rear motorcycle tyres. Somehow, it affected the alignment in a way. I think he used thicker tube tyres? I don't know. I've experienced understeer on a car, but I've never experienced such things on a bike. I tend to over or understeer during some corners..
And I can't believe it.. I can actually feel the grip being present after the new tyres are fitted.. Hmmm.. Guess I've been riding around on a botak rear tyre way too long. 2 years perhaps? Causing me to skid during gear downshifts.. Especially if I downshift by 2 gears.. Wheee...
But besides that, I managed to use the RM20 horse condom.. Which is actually a full set of 0.09 guitar strings by D'Addario.. For those who really believed it was a horse condom, why the hell do you think I would want to collect horse condoms? And if we need to reproduce more horses, why bother using a condom? Lol
The sounds a little bit tight.. Like all new strings, it sounds sharper than the old strings, therefore I needed to re-configure my settings all over again to match the new strings. Now it sounds even better - thanks to the new strings, it's really warm. But if I want it to be warmer, the pickups will have to go and I don't have the heart to do so.. x(
During the string stretching session last night, something came over me, and I ended up playing a whole great number of Metallica hits. Master of Puppets, Enter Sandman, Nothing Else Matters, etc.. Since I was in the mood and I had the passion to play the parts originally without adding more melodic feels through scales, it sounded... superb.. For the first time, I felt I was one with the guitar and melody..
The wonders of music.. It's like meditation..
But then again, not many would understand what I'm talking about.. But this is my blog..so.. jeah. Lol
I might be recording some snippets of Metallica's stuff just to re-practice on recording and metronome, though.. I doubt I'll have the time X_X
First up, Panic Overdrive performed at the SXI Red Cresent Campfire and bagged The Best Performance trophy. Muahahahahaha.. After one month of no jamming sessions, our drummer forgot his parts to some songs, Ying Kit decided to become a serious rockstar by not playing his parts - leaving all of the rhythm work to me while he works on getting my friend's sister's mobile number -_-, Moe tends to sing on my planned harmonies instead of his usual stuff and I.. still stay the same. Lol
Besides that, Panic Overdrive will soon be changing its name to Six Stringed Samurai. Also, Moe seeked C. Loco for .. Well, advice and being a manager of the band currently.
Blah blah blah.. recording label sorta talk..
Problem is; what's the point of a recording label when you have no material to record? Hahaha.. Whatever lah.
Anyways, nothing much happened today.. Managed to have fun on the highways once again with the Camry..but forgetting to turn on the ECT.. So fun wans.. Was vroom vrooming around in Simpang Ampat.. And then I heard a loudass engine coming from the back. I wanted to say "stupid Merz SLK" because it was as low as one, and it looked like one. But I shut up instantly and slowed down the Camry when I realised it was a Ferrari. Wooooooooooooooo
Fellali XD
Then I saw an Alfa 164.. ooo lala.. and it wasn't edmund's one..
Hmmm. Firstly, it doesn't sound local. Check Schizzow out not only at his Multiply page, but on a much more serious side @ Schizzow's Amp Page.
I admit that I don't pull off street races or illegal races. Maybe for those who tend to send me a signal or a hidden sign, then they're asking for it. But yesterday, was a different experience for me.
I had no idea that this ex5 biker beside me wanted to pick a race with me. He dragged his 1st gear right after the lights became green and I was already in 2nd.
The fair part would be that our bikes have the same engine displacement, only at a 100cc, and they're both original without any engine/carbo modification. Carborator timing and air intake tuning for mine would be standard, and his would be a little bit tweaked.. Was a little bit quicker, I guess? But the unfair part would be that the head/handle area for my bike weighs more than his ex5. And on an overall basis, the ex5 is lighter than the wave100 by.. I don't know.
Went off at the 2nd gear, but showed no mercy. Was a little bit too late to drop back to the first gear due to the short notice. Had to go "flat out" to make up for that minor mistake. Because of him hitting the maximum rev for at least a second on his first gear without changing his gears, I had a the opportunity to cut him although my speed was lower, but gear ratio higher than his..
Passed the Maybank HQ in P.Tikus and the lights were green. Needed the balls of steel again.. Had to pull off a corner at a quick speed.. Had to sacrifice some metal bits of the brake pedal by scraping it towards the tarmac.. Damn.. At least cars are different...you tend to get over/understeer.. As for bikes.. you scrape your pedals, or you just end up in the hospital..
And thank goodness.. The Wave100 decided to be nice with its mysterious ways.. Managed to hit about 90 on the straight roads, riding on the centre line.. Crap.. Cars coming in from both sides..left and right.. towards and opposition, and I noticed he used the safer lane, following traffic, but still going flat out.
Then again, who doesn't use the safer lane? I lost sight of him most probably because of some ah pek riding a c70 or something.. puut puut puut..
Now, I'm sure some of you might know Top Gear, and most of you don't know Top Gear.
But I'm sure all of you know Simon Cowell, and I never knew he was featured on Top Gear until I saw his name right on top of the Best Lap Times chart that's featured in the show most of the time. During this episode of Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson invited Simon Cowell into Top Gear to place his best time on the track, and well, he did it.

Mood:Quite.. Awake. Listening To:3 Doors Down - Here Without You
Well, I'm pretty much awake at this moment although I was supposed to sleep back after dropping my dad off at the airport before 6.30am today. Buh.
But today, was just plain fun.. Fun.. And more fun XD
Once again, the usual Satria came around.. When I mean the usual Satria, I mean the usual Satria. The ones which has large exhaust pipes, and when you stuff a 1 feet (in diametre) banana into the exhaust, it still moves without the problem of the pipe being overclogged. I suppose Proton cars might have their pros and cons after all.
... Not.
Good riddance. These people are just plain rubbish, but one thing's for sure. For a racer, his gear transmission was uberly horrible. It would've given his future sleeping kids horrific nightmares about Godzilla having the voice of Oprah sqealing about New York.
And his attitude was even worse than Andy Dick and Simon Cowell combined due to the fact that he wanted to pick on a P-sticker driver this morning.
But after my dad got both of his feet on the ground on Airport grounds, all hell broke loose. When I meant all hell broke loose, I meant it. Right in front of my eyes, I saw Satan. Satan who only knew how to go on the 5th/6th gear while running a diesel engine. In fact, he was driving a school bus going at 30kmph for more than 5 minutes on the way back from the airport. That ulu stretch which is 12 o'clock from the roundabout if you take the proper exit from the Penang International Airport.
I swear that he knew nuts about moving a little bit faster uphill and braking for no obvious reason, behind him were 3 other cars. A calm Wira, a very cautious Vios, and well.. Me.
Right after it was nearly safe to overtake, I already made up my mind. And like what Lionel Ritchie said on Top Gear when he drove incredibly well; Well, after the first practice lap when the front right tyre came running off the track..
"After today, nothing beats whatever I have experienced. Not even singing for the Olympics."
For the first time, I felt the adrenaline rush of overtaking 2 cars and 1 bus in a stretch, risking myself knocking into a motorcyclist - if only I was going at 30kmph like that bloody school bus driver.
Traveling at 5.6k rev on the 3rd gear made the whole trip back to my house rather worth it. Having the ECT power on increases the pleasure of feeling the power - only on the 1st gear when you're about to shoot off from traffic lights. Other than that, I think Toyota rips everybody off with this button which would cost probably RM5,000.00
But then again, if you're missing of a clutch pedal, shooting off from traffic lights would be better explained as crawling away from the lights.
Then came a taxi driver who was probably blind. Firstly, he didn't see an enormous car zooming in from the back coming from Tesco, heading to the Jelutong Express highway at 175 - 180kmph. Although highlighting drivers from far away is an essential when it comes to signals, but he needed a good smash on his rear bumper to realise that I wanted to say: "Get out of the way, you baffoonic pig-brained numb nut!". Had to cut down to.. I don't know..90kmph.. And where's the fun in that? Especially if that asshole's driving at that speed, hogging up 2 lanes like a typical Malaysian Mercedez Benz driver, just that he was a taxi driver.
Yeah. Everybody being written in the above are idiots. Just plain idiots. Ranging from the 30kmph Satanic bus driver to the speeding Camry. Idiots who pisses off other idiots. Especially those typical Penangnite middle lane hogger motorcyclists.
All's well, ends well. I still can't get over the fact that this car provides a lot of screeching understeers. But then again, having tyres that sings high notes makes it up. In fact, those screeching understeers are still the best chords I've ever heard. Not as painful as a high octave soprano opera singer, and not as horrible as the worst grindcore artist.
Thanks a lot for making me enjoy driving a little bit more, you Top Gear dimbwits.
Now, I went through one of Top Gear's episodes, reviewing on this Dutch made car just about 3 years ago? I'd say that it has one of the best looking authentic interiors out there. But for the fact that it's lack of serious metal materials to cover up and make the car a little bit more stable (and also the serious understeers), literally, it'd only look good, parked outside high class restaurants.
The Spyker C8:
Very very sweet.
On Malaysian newspapers, saying something about Bahasa Malaysia being the national language in companies' legal documents and all that junk - Yeah, do whatever you want you Malaysian peanuts. Just as long as the headlines doesn't mislead and misinterpret where the current Malaysian education system should be changed back to BM. If all the politicians in Malaysia are smart enough, they would not change what Dr. Mahatir done before Badawi took over. But through today's The Star, I think they're hinting for a change.
Well, don't ruin our future for us, Malaysia. Because of you bastards, we've got people like Wormy migrating elsewhere because it's a lot better than wherever we are.
Well, maybe not New Zealand, but maybe America for him, no?
I'll go take a half an hour powernap now. I just remembered I have classes now. LOL
Then again, having the thought of driving a car that slid 2 times in town junctions due to understeering and weight shifting due to unconscious heavy braking tend to make driving a little bit more pleasurable.. Hitting more than 2.5x than the proposed town driving speed limit to avoid accidents and unsuspected accidents..
Of course, going through all this would be the result of lack of concentration. Everybody knows that no matter what sort of drive you're planning to take, concentration's the top priority.
Having overloaded thoughts on this mind can be either a good thing; or a bad thing.
I never knew that the smell of burnt rubber could last from the drive until you park the car in the parking lot. Smells horrible.. But listening to the tyres screech.. If it was a series of chord progression that took place in a song, I'd say that tyres screeching would be the heaviest sounding diminished chord in Death Metal, the most soulful chord in Blues, and the jazziest in Jazz.
But one thing that bothers me with all of these Japanese junkyards. Having motorboats like the Camry pisses me off. Revving the engine to 5.999k rpm just to hear the voice of the engine.. wanting to enjoy that sweet sound, and before you know it, it hits 6k rev and you're in the next gear -_-.
Destroying the gearbox was fun. Finally got to feel that wonderful knockback response.. that response that you can never ever get unless your car comes with a manual gearbox with a clutch. That response whenever you tap on the acceleration pedal, you move with an instant without waiting for at least 2 seconds to catch up to that required speed.
Someone get me into the Sepang race track! I want space..........................
Also, not forgetting that the instant brakes for the Camry makes the ride a less pleasurable one. One slight tap, and Jesus.. You'll feel like as if Penang Island got struck a meteor with the size of Russia. Funny how the 2.0e and 2.4v varies when it comes to braking power.. 2.4v is less jerkier..
Or maybe it's the stretching of the gear ratio per gear when you let off the gas pedal?
Varieties..
The urge of that instant response..The foot on this automated gearbox with no bloody acceleration brings a yawn.. Look at Jeremy Clarkson in Top Gear.. Most of the cars he likes brings a.. kiddish smile XD
Also, what really makes me miss a manual vehicle (this includes bikes, yes) would be that smooth ride you're able to control. Because I never liked feeling a car that jerks back and gives you a prancing blast of power around a corner when you're taking a town drive even if you have the best gas control.. for an automatic. And hearing all of that petrol being consumed in a car which is known to be fuel efficient by the Japanese, no? Hmmm. After all, God gave us a pair of hands and a pair of legs to invent and work things out. For humans, they have invented the car where the right hand works the steering, left for the gear shift and hand brake, right leg for gas and brake pedal, and the left leg for the clutch. Not a sleeping left leg doing nothing where the other three still controls the car. Or make that 2 since the gears doesn't need to be controled.
Talk about fuel efficiency. Who needs all that when you're going to be burning the same amount of petrol for a distance your car is going to prance..? This is when the best manufacturers of driving passion kicks in. No, not Germans, but Italians. You see them in movies, they're white, wearing black suits, a.k.a Mafia, and they're just scary when you see them.
Other than that, you see them driving cars that makes everybody feel alive with all of that horsepower. Ferraris.. Lamborginies (before Audi bought them over, I suppose?) and well, the Italian trademark - Alfa Romeos.
Oooo.. The thought of it makes me want to steal one and just waste petrol.. The sweet sound of the engine revs.. The driving passion..The feel.. The idiots you can shut up when they boast about their ride and how big their exhaust pipes are..
TEH POWAH!!!!!!!
Sweet joy!
But then again, motorsports or vehicles isn't my thing. Although the urge of mindless driving inside and outside of Penang past midnights, music still speaks the soul.
How I wish that cars didn't ruin my life in music. Boo hoo.. Give me my talent back, you demonic machines!
Vroom vroom.
Now, let us see how well a Mazda performs in the hands of British nutheads - Top Gear. XD
Mood:Tired Listening To:Glacius - Giant Golden Spermatoonz
Well, this is my first time seeing a bike's gear box x).
The little crackling sound was a loose item. But it wasn't an ordinary loose screw on the exterior compartment of any sort. As I guess, it came from the gearbox itself.
There were 2 - 3 big ass screws that were crooked. And one of the gears were bent/spoilt, so it had to be replaced.
Even the mechanic could tell that it was a problem that existed since a few weeks/months ago.. So it's not my fault! I also heard this problem, but I didn't know what it was.. Couldn't diagnose it properly.
I know I'm pretty much lucky for my first and second semester as it had nothing to do with accounts (and now I shall add what I hate - Business Statistics). This semester is the real test to see if I'm worthy to continue and major out in whatever I have in mind, and it isn't easy as I don't have an accounting background!
Gah.
Anyways, I tried to study for my Business Statistics last night, but it didn't work. I suffered from a mild case of food poisoning. I went into the toilet, lau sai-ed, then realised that I had consumed the tree of life during my lunch as I saw the vegetable leaves in the toilet bowl with that awful stench.
I never vomited in quite a while, come to think of it. Lol
After that, I suffered a series of stomach aches.. Couldn't study, so I gave up and slept from 12am to 7.30am.. Thank goodness that the ache was reduced.. At least I could concentrate on my Mid Terms, or I'd screw everything up.
Well, at least Business Statistics wasn't as hard as I expected.. It was like.. Add Maths repeated in a very simple manner..
Oh. And this morning, Paul's Jaguh couldn't start. Spark plugs were okay. Starter was functioning, but diagnosed that the starter springs couldn't nudge the gears in the gear box, which would mean that the gears were out of place, or..well, spoilt. And gearboxes aren't cheap..
I suppose that explains the odd crackling sound that I keep on hearing even if I don't over-rev the engine.. I knew it had something to do with either the chain or the gears..
But confirmed to be the gears when the crackling sound still existed when the engine was idle.. Hmmm...
Who cares lah. The bike's in the shop now, I'm riding the mini bicycle Honda Wave 100 again. Feels so bloody different..
Oh. And here's most probably the best news for this semester..
I PASSED MY PENGAJIAN MALAYSIA SUBJECT!!
MUAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! XD XD XD XD XD XD XD
:').. I'm so happy.
Then again, it's no Merit or Distinction..but who cares?!?!? I passed!!! MUahahahahahaahaha.. I failed my SPM but I did it in college.. xD
XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
And yeah, my Sejarah and Moral were equally weak..but my sejarah was proven to be weaker during SPM.. XD
Oh well..since the jaguh's down..I suppose that'll leave me to adjusting more gear ratios and comparing engine parts in Tokyo Xtreme Racer Drift 2.. x)
Just as you think that settling down with either a Japanese produced car or a locally produced car, you tend to meet up with an Italian mafia and well, get influenced all over again -_-
It's been a year since I last sat in the Giuletta, and God.. Listening to its voice.. Its screaming revs..
Unexplainable <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
So fun wans XD
Roaaaar <3
Ahh. Tomorrow's the day for my microeconomics. And well, I'm starting to get worried. I mean, I do bitch about her in my blog because she's got a temper worse than anybody else, but my mum has been missing for a total of 2 days starting yesterday.
I wasn't home last night until my exams this morning, and my brother asked me where she was. I have no clue.
But her, going off for work with the car and not coming back for 2 days is definitely.. Abnormal. In fact, the car always stays in its parking lot every night when either one of my parents are in Penang. When the car is not there and when they're not in Penang, it would be..well, around lah XD
Hmmm.
I wonder where is she? She's not even picking up her handphone..
I hate it when my mum tries to brief me on something. Out of 20 sentences, her main point lies somewhere in that whole passage which gives me a semi-headache all the time.
Anyways, have some of you heard the Penang World Music Festival?
It's the music festival that's going to take place in Penang, near Botanical Gardens. The performers would be similar as the ones who are performing in the Rainforest World Music Festival in Sarawak.
And this year, it's their 10th year!
So, I suppose the organisational board decided to try something new to promote this event. Instead of having it far away (since we don't live anywhere near Sarawak), they're bringing the event to Penang.
Now, I heard from my mother that the organiser are looking for people who are willing to help out the sound engineer. A crew of 40, I assume?
I just contacted the organiser via e-mail, so I don't have full details with me. But if you want to work along with a very good sound engineer and learn a little bit more regarding the musicians personally, you might as well be part of the crew, right?
Also, for those who have been dying to attend the Rainforest World Music Festival in Sarawak, but are financially challenged, well, you're in luck as they're pulling it off in Penang!
The Penang World Music Festival is going to take place on the 20th, 21st and the 22nd.
Now, I don't have the details regarding work hours, requirements and all that, but if you all are interested and if Ms. Yeoh would seek me to recommend a crew, let me know?
And yes, the world is not free. You all would be paid, but as I said, I do not have full details.
I will post updates if anybody is interested. Do let me know.
Besides that, riding the Jaguh once again is pretty much fun. Had to ride on a front flat tyre before I could really enjoy riding the big bike. Gah.
Thank goodness that the front flat is just a tube puncture, or the tyre would've costed me..well, a bomb. Lol.
But sad. I ruined the bike through the accident and the suspection is imbalanced, causing the steering to weigh more onto the right.
Of course, the information above is irrelevant to this journal, but hey, Paul might want to take down some notes regarding the Jaguh.
Problem with Discbrake too. Not that sensitive anymore. I suppose discbrake oil/grip on brakes not tightened?
Mood:Well Listening To:Some Japanese Anime My Brother's Watching
Here's an early warning. This entry is going to be about me bitching about my mother who nagged at me over and over again on this glorious day that we should celebrate for mothers.
.. Actually, no. For this entry, I don't intend to write anything horrific about my mother since it is Mother's Day today. As today's the day for mothers, respect is at hand.
Today's a beautiful day, anyways. It rained heavily and it killed off the humidity that Penang has been facing. I don't know, but I can finally feel the horrible heat in Penang.
Then again, the heavy rain brought a headache to a mother who owns this Kia Spectra in my apartment compound.
Crazy. Thank goodness nobody has been hurt. I think the damage to the car was minor as I the car moved lots. I think the bonet's damaged, so.. Yeah.
Anyways, to all the mothers out there in the world, Happy Mother's Day. Treat your children well as what goes around comes around. Please do not treat them like punching bags when you're facing stress over your own business 8-)
You know. People who are constantly emo over the net isn't really a problem for me. I don't mind reading their blogs, or chatting with them.
But having a mother who wakes up on an emo spree isn't my cup of tea. In fact, it pisses me off when she screams, whines, and then screams more regarding vague problems.
What a way to start off the morning. I think I achieved a record of pissing a lot of drivers on the road when I decided to be.. safe. Besides pissing off the drivers, I have pissed my mum off because I drove too slow.
Then again, she's the one who's always asking me to slow down when I'm driving at 50kmph in town area. Now it's wrong to drive at a lower speed which was at 30kmph? Lol
What happened to all that "Take care of the car. Always drive slowly. Precaution must be at hand. Be prepared for the unexpected. Don't get into an accident." junk? If driving at 30kmph is too slow, then what am I supposed to do? Speed up and eventually getting screwed for it?
Fuck you.
Besides that, having a mother that fucking screams at a high pitched voice due to some old hag dragging her trolley on the roads, isn't my cup of tea either.
In fact, with that scream of hers, it pierced my musical ears and broken all barriers of sound, which wanted to make me swirve out of the road to ram straight into a nice looking BMW 5-Series on the road to teach her a lesson to shut up when there's nothing to be afraid of.
The old lady was dragging her trolley on the road, yes. Dangerous? Definitely. But at least she didn't come running towards the Camry and eventually getting banged down by.. Well, me.
Talk about trusting the driver. The least and the most she can do is just to say "Whoa, watch it", "be careful", "slow down" (in a proper and a mannerly way without stressing those glorious vocal chords, bitch), or "kannineh eh lau ah ee". I'm cool with anything but an AHHHHHHHHH is intolerable.
These series of unfortunate events made me drive the car in a semi-manual way where the gear transmission is controlled by the driver. From L --- > 2 --- > O/D off ---> O/D on.
What fun taking it out on a bloody car. Slowly bringing up the rev metre to 6k on the low gears.
If the Camry happens to screw up, eat shit bitch. You deserve it anyways.
What pisses me off even more is for her to rudely tell me to not make any plans today as I will be in the office as I am right now, and will be heading to Simpang Ampat.
Let's see what happened later when she lets a person who only had 4 hours of sleep for 2 days.. Drive on the highways :)
I swear. Today's the first time I ever slept for so damn long. Slept at 12am, woke up at 7.30am naturally, went for class at 9, came back at 12.30pm, slept through until 9pm because of my bloody flu!
I feel like dying now T.T
But then again, the main point of this journal is to celebrate my happiness in seeing an Alfa Romeo 75 in the flesh behind Giant Supermarket today <3
Mmmmm.......................
So sexy............................
I can't eblieve I skipped my English class because of this damn flu.. T.T
Mood:Moodless Listening To:Some Spanish/Mexican group
A couple of nights ago, Edmund picked me up with his dad's Alfa.. The 164/168 3.0 v6. Can pretty much say that I learnt a few more things through that night. Suprisingly, he let me test drive the car. Sweet x)..
So much power, yet I didn't dare handle all that........ powah..
I also learnt that not all clutches are sissy clutches. I suppose that not only the Italians were heavy smokers, but high powered cars comes with different clutches compared to Kancils, Wiras, Sagas, etc. I don't know. The harder clutch nearly made the engine stall on me since my last encounter with a manual car (Moe-bile). Of course, the same theories still applied. Half clutch makes the car move, and around that range, the gas needs to be stomped upon to gain more speed at a faster rate.
I still can feel the clutch snapping back towards my leg if I didn't apply enough pressure on it.. Yummy..
The torque per gear ratio is.. I don't know.. somewhat unexplainable in a very horrifying sense. 3.0cc what.. 1000cc more powerful than a stupid Camry. Besides, my right leg acted up upon me so that none of us got killed on the roads due to acceleration power. x)
Now I see what Yin Liang meant that the Alfa's clutch was so bloody hard.. I suppose he was talking about the 164 instead of the Giuletta.. The other one still can tahan.. But the 164.. I don't know. Just learnt that clutches in different cars doesn't have the same pressure. Mmmm.
Makes you wonder how does those Japanese dudes on Best Motoring gain all that leg muscle..
But personally, I prefer the Giuletta compared to the 164 although the 164 reigns in power. Why Giuletta? It just has this..magical steering touch that makes you gain the spirit of driving .. :).. Or maybe because it's a RWD :) :) :) XD XD XD XD XD
Thanks Edmund! Hohohohoho XD XD XD XD XD.. Next time, I'm heading to your place to test your amps.. Nyohohohohohohoho.. Wanna do it on Sunday?
Oh well. That's about it. The next part would be my shitty morning about how my mum went into a ballistic mode and took everything out on me.
So I remember that I heard her screaming at me in the car..
.. Then I went blank until I arrived at my destination. So fun.
And I remember somewhere during the whole bombarding, she said that if she's staying alone, things would be better as she can take care of the house herself. That would mean that if my dad talks to her about me going off to KL to continue my studies, there shouldn't be a problem at all! Hohoho.
I think through whatever she had just said this morning, she's actually hinting for all of us to leave her alone. Wahahahahahahahahaha..
.. Okay, so I'm just being optimistically sarcastic, but hey, sunshine or rain, we gotta live our lives until the day we die with.. extreme happiness?
Back to work.. After a quick round of multiply. Nyohohohohoho..
And today, I'm going to cut off my hair. Screw the whole long hair rockstar image. I'll just stick to my form 3/4 short spikey hair for the moment.. I practically screwed up my hair because I layered it once every 2 weeks since last month.. I look like.. I don't know.. A blazing sun..
Besides.. My long hair is kind of messy.. So.. Yeah.
