Its been quite a period since the last time I updated. Wasn’t depressed though. It seems like the last week at school really cheered me up after that terrible and heart-breaking weekend. The last whole week was very packed with lots of outings and stuff so I didn’t update. Was too tired and didn’t have the mood. Imagine a person who normally sleeps after midnight even on school days suddenly sleeping before 11pm daily. You get the idea. Anyway life has been rocking. Or at least most of it. I don’t think I can still remember everything so I'll just write about the weekend. The daily recounts as well as the usual updates on random topics.
I know I talk about a certain Graham Whiteley very often. Some of you don't know how he looks like. So I decided to get a close-up picture of him last Monday. By the way, he stays near me too! Haha. Oh man, forgot to snap whats at the back of his head-nothing. Hope you get what I mean lol.
On last week
Went out on Monday and Wednesday. Can't remember we I went but can only remember that
Monday went Great world with Julian and Ben then headed to his house by taxi. The taxi Driver was interesting and cool!
Wednesday
Julian's house with Leon. We played hide and seek haha. It was fun!
Thursday
Micah and Jensen came to my house for a swim. They broke my boat. But never mind at least they didn't mean it.
Friday
Each of us got a free class picture. Click on the picture for actual size. I don't know why I wasn't smiling in the picture but I was considerably happy. And all of us signed on each other's photo! It was so fun. The year seems to have gone by so quickly. Really. I still can remember what happened last year. Seems like now is only mid-year. I don't know if the last day of school is happy or sad. Is it better to continue being in 2A3? Or move on?
After school, Ezra, Andrew Chang, Marc Ooi and Joshua Teo came to my house to play soccer. After that my leg sort of went numb. And by the way, Ezra's kick is like so strong.
Saturday
I ate this at Jack's Place 27 Oct '07. New Zealand T-Bone Steak! Yummy. Please either get a plastic bag to contain your saliva or hurry up run to the toilet basin if you can't control your salivary glands.
This was made in malaysia when on the way to Yong Peng. And the pic is MY LOVE!!!! Speed is just so cool and fun! But not always especially when your driver is a bit crazy. Taking a long but gradual bend at 200kmh.
P.S. Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. 230kmh!!! Still missing the 250kmh mark though. But that was because we ran out of road!
A closer look if your short-sighted :D Thats the cool thing about Malaysia, and why I love to go there. The highlight is always the North-South Expressway. Imagine going to Yong Peng (100km away from entry of expressway) in just 20 minutes! But this is counted record time. Was trying to get the top speed of E500 but traffic was not light enough. And thats not the limit of what an E500 can do. It can do more than that!
Its done by this thing here. Unbelievable? If you thought it was the yellow one, I just want to say that it is impossible for it to even reach 185. Model matters. Not looks. And please don't start saying merc is fast after you read this post. Julian will be very noisy. Cos it only depends on the model. 5 Litre V8. Thats what matters.
Now the video. I got a video while in the car returning to Permas Jaya, cruising around 160-200kmh. Somewhere around there. For best quality, please turn off the volume COMPLETELY to avoid hearing my voice talking to my dad about some personal matters. Its going to sound quite lame. But I'm thankful that you won't be watching this video beside me. So I don't have to cover my face. And I know most of you will turn it on even louder after reading this. But if you do, take note of the sound of wind. It's noisy alright. This video lets you know what the scenery is like at decent speeds. Singapore's traffic speeds may cause your car to spoil cos it doesn't allow fast cars to stretch legs. Cos the one below is blur, You can always refer to the meter above to get an idea of the speed. Just look out for the marker and see where it is. And oh yes, watch out for that lorry which we just zooms past. Thats fast. Its like a flash!
And then, finally reached Permas Jaya. Not going to describe anything. I'll just use pictures. According to somebody who looks like a professional racer to me and is very pro, he says i'm quick for the kind of slow kart im using. Maybe cos i looked like 10 as well.
Monday-Outing with Shawn and Zhong Han. When I arrived at Orchard I walked the underpass and obviously had to pass by the MRT station. There, I saw Yue ming and Bryan. They were going to Junction 8.
After that I met shawn and zhong. We walked around the shops in Wisma and Taka. Then to paragon toys r us and then slowly walked down the street to lucky plaza where we entered bossini, giordano and hang ten. They've got 3 hang tens in lucky plaza?! Then we went to Tangs and shawn and i bought some chicken sticks which proved to be addictive.
Then we went to outside Tangs and saw this. I mean, these.
I want one of these!!! :(
Then Shawn's friend and her friend finally came and we went for lunch at Sushi Tei, the one at Taka. Niku Udon is nice, never get sick of it. After that went to World of Sports at Wisma where we just slacked while shawn and friends walked around. Zhong and I got bored so... haha
Then when going home I happened to bump into Bryan again. So coincidental.
At Jurong East MRT station waiting for the train at the centre platform. It was so packed that not everybody could get on the train and some people where literally being pressed against the doors when it was closed.
Today, went out with Julian to great world for the race we've been waiting for. I was totally OFF. And he improved alot. So he totally thrashed me this time. Like very badly. OUCH. I think Go-karting is killing my sense of steering for arcade games. Different steering ratio you see. But to Desiree: Daytona has about the same steering ratio as go-kart so we'll see :D
