One of my use to be close friend just had a heart stabbing moment when her bf told her the cruel sentence... Really pity her, for once in her life she decide to believe in a relationship and got so deep in and now she is so hurted until she can no longer sleep, eat, talk normally. Everything she does is being haunted by past thoughts of the things they does together. Guess my time is gonna be stuck with her for the next few days unless she manage to get tixs to go genting with her family... At least last nite I manage to make her happy and at least she manage to have a good nite sleep. Quite tiring actually to try to cheer a super depress person to smile and be back herself... This is draining for me sia... got friends once tell me that I can choose to do it or not.. but think again.. if a friend were to come to you with her problems, that means he/she needed a friend to be around or even trust that you will be able to help her... so how can I possibly leave her in a lurch.

Btw to answer the question being asked by my friend about who is the gal I mention about in the previous post. Oh well, it is actually nothing, just a gal I met in another lab which I never even have a proper conversation with before. So it is actually nothing. haha..




Recently I just like to do things my way... Don't feel like compromising. Busy with a lot of things, sleeping, playing games and rushing my research. Now my research is really giving me worries, enough to give me sleepless nite.. maybe that account for my impatient behavior recently.. or maybe that is just an excuse for my tyrant behavior recently.. anyway, let's hope things change for the better.




Its been a week since I last blog because I was really too busy... I have been starting work at 830am and ending something like 7pm.. too many things to do and also decided to buck up a little.. been too slack recently.. I got so many things to say.. So pardon me if the entries are disorganised..

Firstly, I was busy coating samples with materials like titanium, copper, aluminum, nickel and lastly Gold !!. So I decided to try something funny and coated my whole handphone cover with gold ! Looks uncle I know.. But then again, the coated gold layer was not good and until now, the gold has all fallen off.

The ammonia gas that I am dealing with has leaked again... Kaoz.. !! It is back to ammonia smelling again.. And even heard a story before that a Phd person got his eyes blinded for 3 days when exposed to ammonia... Look on the bright side, three days only... not forever blind so it is still safe. haha.. Then knew this new technical by the name of Wunly, at first everyone was scared of her, in chinese ppl say "newbies, san1 ba2 huo3" very garang and 'law' abidding... A bit pity her though, made to come back in the middle of the night due to the ammonia gas leakage hence I try to help her as much as I can. Ended become good friends... Well, she was about the same age as me, i guess.. maybe I am older... (-_-) whatever... Had a hearty chat with her... found out something, everyone's dream of studying university is in the hope of finding a well paid job, doing something he/she like but always ends up getting underpaid and does not get the job scope he/she wants or gets con into doing now... So that is life ? work for money so as to enjoy and when got enough money, too much work, no time to enjoy ? There was once I talked to my neighbor, he said, I don't earn much, but why do I need to earn so much, I don't spend that much also.. but then again, he change car every three yrs.... talk about not spending much....

How do you feel when a gal with a voice very cute but like to fuss over things and use that 'cartoon' sound to make some exclaimation.. to me, a little sounds cute and adorable.. too much and it sure sounds like some really irritating cartoon shows that I will just shut it off on tv. Well, lucky I don't need to interact with her that much, but then again... she got the kind of looks I am looking for..... single eye lid.... a bit of oriental jap or chi look. Guess this must be the first time you all hearing me talk about gals... yay... I am normal...

now back to my favourite cars... for those not interested can just stop reading le.. haha... recently been driving my brother's honda jazz around cuz he was overseas, I realised one thing about that car, it has a cosy interior, my ex-fyp partner sat inside refusing to come out.. haha.. not so cold air con.. yesh... i dun really like artic air con.. nice sound system even with no modifications... other than that, it is slow... noisy... and.. oh well, just take the ride at an easy pace... today just drove back my car... wow.... what is knowing you have horse power and using it as and when you want... haha... at last I am back on the fast lane.. haha...

2nd Dec Mitsubishi Turbo-charged event !!!! Yay... going for that...
3rd Dec SMSA Rally !!! Yesh.... At last it is back after half year of waiting...

Really look forward to these two events.. Yeah !! This time I am going to bring a good camera... Don't wanna use my handphone camera le.. haha.. anyway handphone dying really soon.. it is really starting to throw tantrums every now and then le.. that's all for now.. (^_^) tata




New Song in my blog =)




Hmmm woke up really early today at about 5.30am.. Why ? Because I got a nightmare.. I used to remember that I start having this nightmare from the time I first failed two modules and I was retaking them hence overload myself to 8 modules instead of 6. Again I had the feeling when I took 10 modules in year 3, the maximum that a person can take. The nightmare is simple, I would just jump out of my bed thinking that I have not finish studying for my paper and panic all over for a while before realising that I have already graduated... Stupid right.. I have already got myself well prepared for the papers for year 4 and of course my masters course modules. Scored quite well, but just wondering how come it is 2 years since then and now I am still having such dreams.. And coincidentally, today is the first day of exam period for ntu, my biological clock sure is accurate sia...

Anyway, all the best for those who are taking exams from today onwards until end of 3 weeks time.

Recently been busy bidding for some stuffs in the ntu student sale, basically these are stuffs that obsolete and no longer used in ntu, but then again, it is not cheap stuffs, take for example, HP jornada 720 handheld PC, visual presenter, 20inch monitor.. Just hope I get most of them, then I can start making some money.. Wish me luck in these sales and bidding sia...

Lastly, I was on board a ship name Douglas with one of my bao bei.. Here are the photos. haha... Yeah... Cruise ship... (^_^)

Year end is approaching and everyone is talking about going on tours, overseas to enjoy, relax and use finish their annual leaves.. It is just so nice... For me, I can only envy them... First, I got no money to spare and I will be more than happy if I got no debts than to even think of having money to spend... Second, I got no leave at all, so how to go on holiday... Both things are working against me, no leave, try to go on weekends but then weekends rate are so much more ex that I could not afford... Of course I am not in any mood to talk about any holiday... At most, I shall just go my favourite sembawang park to look at the sea if I want to see one...

Time to cut all my entertainments again le... Going into a financial crisis again.. Sucks...




Went to the motorshow yesterday... what a disappointment it was... Boring I dare to say.... All the cars there are not really that special.. only 1 out of like 20 is unique.. the rest being common cars you can find on the road... nonetheless I manage to buy the engine oil I wanted at discounted price...

Oh yah... first time since don't know how many century years that I went to vivo city by TRAIN !!! Yeah !! Train.. haha... not bad lah... just feel that eveything is very slow and takes much longer time. haha.. but then again... okay lah.. cannot expect too much... went to watch flushed away... I like the slugs a lot... So nice.. haha.. Thanks to nic for sending us home.. Yeah !!

Attend my friend's wedding ceremony today at city harvest... First time step into city harvest church... boy do they really have lots of money sia... whole place is well done up... go wedding ceremony like going concert like that sia... power... but then again.. wish them happily everafter.. (^_^)




Well, went one big round and back with the my car's suspension... Decided to throw away the stiffer GAB front absorber.. So now at least it is more comfortable although looks wise not that nice...

oh yah, the important part is at last I have done a dyno run for my vios.. Had wanted to do it in malaysia cause it is cheap but I have decided to do it today... impulse... but then at least I get what I wanted..

Think it is too small for you all to read the values... anyway a stock vios will have horsepower rating of 109bhp and torque rating of 142Nm, now I have 118.50bhp and 165.53Nm.

Do a bit of math and I am getting 8.7% more horses and 16.57% more torque. So the power to weight ratio of my car is now 126bhp per ton.

Enough of technical stuffs le. haha.. quite surprise that the boss of the dynopack is very friendly to me, normally you know, those kind of shops only entertain people who drives Evo, WRX, RX8, AirTrek Turbo... bla bla... At least now I know what my mods has done for me... Although they keep telling me that i got a restrictive cat converter and muffler... Guess that will be all for now... He even ask me to turbo charge my car.. haha.. Quite cheap... but then again... it is not that good to go against the law... besides... why would i want more power when my car now have enough power to overwhelm the current suspension settings and cause my car to wobble on hard acceleration...

Final thing... MotorShow 2006 is coming to suntec !!! 10-19Nov. Anyone interested to go ? Entrance Tixs at $10, think I can get it at $8.20 or $8.60 in the forum. Decide to go on 10Nov since it is a friday hence I guess much lesser people.. haha.. Who knows... I may go there twice.. haha.. First is on my own, and second time is with my friends who drives.. haha.. So anyone wanna pei me go on the first time round ?

Hmm... just had a random thought so I decided to jot it down.

When do people going into a relationship? When they have feelings for one another.
Why need feelings for one another? Because in that way, things get multiplier effect, more excitement.
So I now do not feel that any thing can make me excited unless maybe I one person strike toto first prize... Then I got money.. So I got money le what should I do? Let's trace... I want to order a spoon civic type R that got a engine that can be rev to 12,000rpm, why ? cause shiok loh.. I like high revving the engine... So car make me excited.. Also not really leh... So I got the car.. then... that means I can travel around with it... = freedom... freedom => no work => no money => cannot buy toto => no prize... unable to accomplish dream ! Talking nonsense now. haha.. shall stop here.




At last my vios feels like a car again.. before that was something like a go-khart (= no suspension=bumpy ride) I have went to the workshop today to raise the ride height to three fingers instead of two, you may think one finger difference is not much diff, but then I can tell you, my vios now feels like a 'merc' as compared to the previous settings.. haha.. What I did was switch to higher stiffer springs and a stiffer shock absorbers and tada... problem sort of solved halfway le. Yeah...




Lowering the car was just agony and beyond. Decided to take my bao bei's advice. It is not practical to tune the car in such a way that I will only be utilising it for less than 10% of the road. Hence tomorrow, I am going to raise the car height to 3 1/2 fingers.. That should solve most of the problems.. (hopefully).... That's all for now.

Latest car lowered to 2 finger front and back.

Overall can only say now the car is better than me le. It can tahan corners that I run out of guts to try. So far only tried 60km/h left corner turns and 90km/h right corner turns. Ke lian baby Blaz... but now Baby Blaz is sitting on the seat than on the dashboard more often le, don't want baby Blaz to fly out when I doing cornering. haha.. that's all for now. Oh yah.. the bad news is haha... I am restricted to at most 3 passenger theory again. haha..
