So it's been awhile since I last posted something 'round here. Thought it should be time for the first post of the sparkling not-so-new 2009. 10 days down, 355 more to go~ Nah, pardon me; I shouldn't be counting the days, I should be making the days count. This could possibly be my final year in pursuing my education, my final year in Australia. Then again, who could predict what our future holds. I could land a job, work between play for the next 40 years or so, retire, and enjoy life for whatever its worth left then. Or I could work and play between my pursuit for an academic degree of a higher level, and settle down at a much later age. Ah, if only one could foresee the future. Hold on, scratch that; I take it back. All fun, surprises, and excitement would be lost if we just anticipated a known future. It's like watching a film twice.
Resolutions. Always made, rarely fulfilled. Hence why I made mine much simpler this year. It's mostly about being polite & courteous, like holding doors for ladies and such. It's not difficult, just often neglected. I believe that there's a fantastic reason the word "gentle" is placed before "men", apart from referring to the male gender at the washrooms.
I'm glad that my bruises from rafting have mostly faded. The bruise on my thigh was the worst. It expanded to a width of around 7 inches and 11 inches lengthwise. It was so horrendous I didn't even want to take a picture of it then, which I now regret. You know how things work these days; no picture, no proof - it never happened!
I got into a minor car accident last night. It's really minor, really. I'm fine. I know that heaps of people say this, but it really wasn't my fault! I was calmly driving along the street in front of my secondary school when this gold coloured Benz maneuvered into my lane without prior indication. While swearing with the S-word, I blared the car horns and depressed the brake pedal. Goldie hit my right side mirror, which shattered. I bought the parts for the repairs this morning and claimed compensation from Goldie's owner. See? It really wasn't my fault! Hella expensive though. I didn't know that a bloomin' side mirror costs 280 bucks! Seriously.
1 Strikes:
OMG! 280 bucks?
That other night when we were at Maybank mamak we saw these bunch of workers unloading (I think) chicken into the Sea Park market and they roughly pushed again this Myvi's side mirror and it broke! Left hanging there and they didn't do anything about it. Just left like that. Guess you don't expect them to do anything, but still! 280 bucks. Whoa.
