the day before had lunch at adam road. nasi lemak. followed by ice cream at island cremery.
yesterday had lunch at this particular kopitiam next to mustafa.

a few weeks ago, Law said something interesting.
when you have a girlfriend who is really young, she'll get really excited and full of awe if you pick her up in a car. any car. but as she gets older, she becomes more sophisticated. she learns to look at the value of the car you're driving. she'll probably want to be picked up by a BMW, a Mercedes-Benz, or a Volvo. not jsut some ordinary Jap-made sedan, or especially the worse, you show up with a pick-up truck, lorry or a van. according to Law, if you were driving any of the last three type of vehicles, you might as well jus hire a cab. or maybe dont even show up.

cant believe that i actually believe a little of his nonsense. since had some experience of that myself.
just taking a look at my bank account, two more months and i'll be able to comfortably afford a Kia Picanto. a Proton Gen.2 CamPro would be better, but the whole emphasis here is COMFORTABLY afford.
i told my father that i'm thinking of buying a car in around two months time. he told me he's fine with anything as long as i dont get in (financial) trouble.

or maby i should save a LOT more money by buying a second-hand car at maybe around $10,000.
nah.
second-hand cars might not be reliable.

all those people standing around mrt stations and bus interchanges. they would stop you and ask you to help in a survey or buy something from them. i have developed a way to go around it. i'll purposely walk into and bump hard into one of those folks then say, "watch where you're walking!"
