CAUTION:

The murderer is still at large. This victim is not the first and will not be the last. The murderer's other victims consist of cockroaches,grasshoppers,snails,mosquitoes,rats and any form of pest. The murderer shows a preference towards rolled-up newspapers and shock-rackets as weapon choices. Pests..YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

This is specially for Bavanee!!!!!
Who turned 22 on the 20th of January...

Bavang...
as promised...watch n enjoy!!!!

Firstly, Congrats to CHRYS and MICHELLE for passing their driving tests.. on their FIRST attempt too. Great work. *winks* (The congratulations may be a little late because Chrys passed on the14th while Michelle passed on the 21st...Nevertheless...)

Two new driving license holders on the road...WATCH OUT!!!
This time of the year seems to be the most popular time for people to take their driving lessons and subsequently; THE test. SPM leavers and college students on break I guess..

WARNING:Since there's a bit of a mania about getting behind the wheel;I shall take this opportunity to launch into a long,boring story about my driving experiences (yes..I got my license last March;I'm legal on the road OK). Just kidding.

There's nothing much to tell anyway.
I remember what my instructor said on the first lesson,

"Ive been teaching driving for over 11 years. Don't show me any new tricks."

I didn't.
The occasional near-misses,went into the wrong lane once,near crash,sudden braking,engine dying at the traffic lights,toppling those black-and-white striped poles. None of them were new to him apparently. So,when I passed on my first attempt,he must have been bored...until I asked him to give me those "P" stickers for my car.
Actually,I didn't ask.It went something like this (in Cantonese):-

Me,"Mister,are you gonna give me those "P" stickers?"
Him,"You have to buy them from the shops."
Me,"I thought they gave them to us after we pass."
Him,"Hmph,you're the first person who've ever thought of such a thing."
Me,".....So we don't get anything for passing?"
Him,"OK then,I actually have some. Here.(passes them to me) Take them."

I still don't get why they don't just give them to us for free after we pass. I mean,they have those "approved sizes" thing about the stickers in the manual right??? Besides,we paid a bundle for the lessons plus the test(s).

Anyway,those 'free' stickers are residing on the left sides of my front and rear windows of my manual car. Yes,I drive what some people call 'shift sticks',auto cars are more preferred. Whatever..so long I can move around on my own,I don't give a damn.

Watch until the ending where they add really funny graphics on Simon...
HILARIOUS!!!!

I was bored. No other reason.

Have you ever woken up one morning and HATE everything about your life??Everything just seems against you.

The first thing I heard this morning was;not my alarm,but the ANNOYING drilling sounds that were coming from the area behind my house,where a construction of a new house is taking place. Imagine it,the SHRILL zzZZzzzzzZZZ of metal on metal piercing through your head at 8:30 in the morning.
8:30 a.m!!!!

Like some giant,demented bee!!!!!It gave me an instant headache.
"Great,JUST what I need when I've got two boring classes to attend today."
Now,I know that those construction workers were just doing their jobs;but couldn't they time their noisy works for a later part of the day where the sounds won't give people murderous thoughts about the source??

Class wasn't until 11a.m. (I'd plan to sleep in today because I've been feeling extra tired recently but THEN..you know what happened..)but since I was awake,I decided to get ready and go to college early and settle in the library where,hopefully,no drills are present. Hoping to subdue the headache (I was NOT hungover,trust me...) I washed my face and looked for my spectacles..but I couldn't see them. I distinctly remember putting them on my table before bed but my blurred vision made my frameless specs invisible against the dark wood. Squinting,I bent till my nose was almost touching my table,I tried to detect my specs;at the same time groping among the stationery and books there. Nothing. And the squinting didn't help my headache.

Lets skip the details of me breathing in whatever bacteria that was on my table until I actually found my specs. By the time I restored my vision,got dressed and had everything I needed for the day's classes,it was already 10 a.m. That was the longest I've EVER took to get ready. I would have been impressed;if it wasn't for the construction noises STILL echoing from the site right through my brain. Accompanied with loud hammering too. I seriously do not know why the noises were so particularly annoying today since the construction has been going on since last year.

Anyway,I just wanted to escape;so I threw everything into the car and whizzed to college. I didn't even get my customary morning dose of hot caffeine. Which made the classes seem everlasting. Now I'm considering sleeping with ear plugs until the construction is over. But then;I won't be able to hear my alarm. Talk about caught between two devils. The thing is,I don't know which is the lesser of the two evils.

*SIGH*
