I had a Black Day..

sometimes, it takes a little more to spark up your life and wake you up from a monotonous living dream...of going to school and coming home after that.. everyday... i should know.. it makes one appreciate life a little more....

the feeling of fear and unreal coiled and collided together... not knowing whether it was a dream or not.. when my car swerved out of control... i couldn't control it.. i grabbed the steering tightly trying to make it go straight again.. but the wheels seemed to be possessed with its own thoughts and swerved left and right down the slope from Mid Valley Mega Mall heading to Bangsar... all i could think about at the moment was not hitting the high railing on my left and i turned my steering as hard as i could to the right.. luck was on my side and the spirit left my wheels alone to obey me and with a loud thump.. i hit the rather high divider and landed 90 degrees off the initial direction... my car was hanging in between the divider and there was no way i could reverse or move my car.. i was stunned for a second or two... i realised then that it was not a dream... i am in an accident.. i thank God for not involving anyone else.. and not being hurt myself...

trying hard not to panic and to control my emotions, i called my mum and AAM insurance for help... after awhile, a few men stopped their cars nearby and approached me.. one of them showed genuine interest to help me while others just wanted to sell me their insurance...

trapped in my own insecurities and uncertainties about these men.. i saw Ken walking towards me.. it was the biggest relief of my life... i couldn't control my emotions any longer and hugged him staining his shirt with my tears.. he was really nice... he was only a few cars behind me when he saw the incident and turned back to help me.... my dizziness slowly seeped away as i know that at least, i am not alone..

by that time, a policeman had appeared ready to issue me with a summon.. but fortunately or unfortunately, another accident even more severe than mine occurred... two cars.. i don't know how, just like me swerved uncontrollably... (the police forgot about me after that)

one of them like me, hit the curb but ran over it ending up on the other side of the road meters away from me... it swerved towards my direction.. all i could think of then was " sheets.. why am i standing here on the divider??? i could die!"

luckily there were not many cars on the other side.. preventing further accidents.. however, the other car involved was not so lucky.. it hit the railing and the entire front was smashed....

i expected some screams at my direction and i had mentally prepared myself for any terrible ordeals.. because i kinda induced their accident... but the other victims were very nice to me.. they told me that it was not my fault and that they had seen my misfortune from a distance but.. unfortunately.. they ended up with my fate as well...

it took 3 strong men to help carry my car while Ken sat in my car and helped me reverse it back onto the road.. the exterior of my car was alright.. but.. i found out later that my car had been badly damaged below...

one of the victims, a woman was very very helpful and protected me from fiendish insurance sales people who tried to manipulate and take advantage of me.. it was like this. i called AAM and told them about the incident. they dispatched a tow truck estimated to reach about an hours time.. a man later came.. claiming to be from AAM and made me sign a form so that my car would be towed to his workshop.. i was still blur from shock.. i read it.. it contained no unreasonable clause and i signed it believing the fact that he was from AAM insurance.

later however, my uncle called me and asked me not to sign anything whatsoever.. but it was already too late... the genuine AAM tow truck did come.. ( the man who approached me previously was indeed an agent for AAM.. there was no scam) but i tried to revoke the contract anyway when he refused to tow it to the workshop of my choice.. he had also told me that he would help me make a report to the police... the woman defended me and told me that i did not have to report because my accident did not involve anyone else.. and she told me to drive off a.s.a.p but my car was in no position to move..
i had a hard time negotiating with them to revoke it.. all they wanted was money.. but since there was no clause stating that i cannot revoke the contract.. and after giving them duit kopi.. they dropped it.. and received my RM 20 as a settlement.. the reason for this was that.. the workshops under such insurance companies usually overcharge and they will " kill you" (in Cantonese) and you have no idea whether or not the workshop is truly reliable... the kind woman i mentioned earlier helped me with the negotiations as well.. demanding a revocation of the agreement..

after a traumatically long and tiring ordeal, everything was settled.....
it was one of the most terrifying things that had happened in my life...
until know.. i have no idea how it happened.. everything was but a fluffy white blur..
it was not at a curve, and the road was not wet or slippery... i just did what i usually do..

i called my mum after school... and found out that i was not the only one who was having a big black day.. my mother's day wasn't very much gayer... after hearing my horrible news, her BMW had a flat tyre after sending my sister to school.. and she could not drive her Volvo because it was emitted to the workshop just that morning due to some leakage thingy...

its a Black day for my family... i should start praying... seriously...
but i am glad that my car is still in one piece.. and not broken into many pieces beyond recognition......

i am still a little shaken from the accident.. but that will not stop me from driving.... fast..

if i learned a lesson today.. it would probably be STOP SPEEDING.. but since i don't really think that i did anything out of my ordinary..
it would be
DO NOT CALL AAM AFTER AN ACCIDENT
but YOUR OWN RELIABLE MECHANIC!
and
DO NOT SIGN ANY FORMS FROM RANDOM PEOPLE!

Overall, i am glad that Ken was there.. without him.. i would have... i dunno....
and besides, it pumped my blog back to life.. and that's hard!



thanks Ken!! i owe you one!! ^^

and i am really glad that my uncle came all the way and helped me with the rest of my car problems... thank yoouuuuuuu........................

WARNING to those who wants to go to HELP !

HELP INSTITUTE...

what can i say about it??

firstly, the Ground Floor.. the entrance to Wisma Help which somehow smells like toilet despite the presence of one.. is just sick.. especially if you have just eaten.. LOL!

Next, the Library! its rather pathetic.. less than half a floor.. with outdated books and hardly enough tables and chairs for the students... despite the poor condition.. and the inability to purchase newer books.. the library is .. umm.. lets just say that.. you'll be transported back into your childhood days when library cards were essential.. however.. in HELP, you dont even get plastic library cards.. you get 3 pink manila card thingies which are too big to fit into your wallet.. you have to apply to get the manila card thingies.. and it takes one whole day to process because it has to be verified by the HEAD first.. o.0 not like there is anything worth that much in the library.. the LAW BOOKS are OUTDATED.. so.. its pretty much useless.. ( i didnt bother applying for them )

the strange thing is that you cant use your student card to apply for the library pockets as they so proudly call it.. you have you use your uni fee receipt to apply for the pink thing.. then what in the world is the student card for??? sheesh..

lol.. i know what its for.. its for showing who we really are... orange skinned people from some orange planet.. (ask to see my student card.. and you'll understand)

the computer lab in Wisma Help.. is a tiny tiny room.. with really old computers.. the library in Taylors College Subang Jaya (TCSJ) has more computers in its library than HELP has in its lab!

in order to use the computers, once again.. you cant use your student card.. you have to activate it first at the main block.. and you have to pay like.. i cant remember how much a month in order to use the computers..

and the parking is a nightmare.. you'll need to purchase these booklets of coupons in which you can park in the car park for 3 bucks a day.. its always sold out.. and you'll have to go around begging for some kind soul to sell you some when you run out of it.. because.. you'll probably go broke if you don't have them.. its probably like 3 bucks for the first 2 hours then.. 1.5 bucks every subsequent hour or something like that..

well.. it'll be nice if they can at least tell you when they will have the stock for the coupons.. but they cant .. because they dont know themselves.. so.. you'll have to go everyday to check in the Bursary to see if the annoying white paper which tells you that the parking coupon is sold out is there or not.. if its not there... BUY AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!!


the photostat shop nearby Wisma Help.. " The Illegal Shop".. as we call it.. is hidden in a little corner.. well.. its not really a shop.. but more of.. a space... in between a locked door containing some chemical thingy.. and the gray metal sliding up and down door thingies on shops

there is a warning sign if you look in.. something which tells you put on proper safety breathing gear when you enter the premises... lol..
i had a terrible headache the last time i was there.. it was very hard to breathe and i felt like puking while waiting for the woman to get my photostatting done..

my first week there was sad... really sad... the condition of the place.. the lack of healthy food.. the massive traffic in the mornings.. some of us really wanted to run back to TCSJ!! or Inti Nilai.. LOL!


However,.. im getting used to it now.. im used to the toilet smelling ground floor.. the annoying bus rides from the main campus to Wisma Help, the tiny table and chair thingies which reminds you of a baby chair, during tutorials.. and the frequent consumption of mamak at Ali Maju...........

Maybe.. just maybe ..with time.. i may learn to like this dumpy place...

NOT!

MY ADDICTION

PEOPLE get addicted to drugs, caffeine, chocolate or cigarettes..





but the moment i signed up on http://www.facebook.com/ i knew that i had found my addiction...

this strong memorising effect has captured me and had managed to lure me into its sticky web.. in which lies many already trapped souls which would now be joined by one more... mine...

this strong spell which had me so entangled in its existence had managed to break me free from my previous addiction of Ragnarok Online.. i don't know how this tiny website works exactly but.. its powers are exceedingly strong.. i am so afraid of it.. afraid that it will suck up all of my soul leaving me with but an empty shell... wandering around the world... with a blank expression plastered on my face.. like the many zombies u see in those old classic horror films...





honestly.. i have no idea why i am writing about my addiction.. maybe its because .. people have to know.. they have to.. you have to.. because.. if anything happens to me.. if you suddenly see me spread.. my limbs in weird angles.. in a pool of my own crimson blood.. on the newly laid brick floor in front of Taylors College Subang Jaya.. you will know why...




[ picture removed for being too gruesome]








at least my death can be explained... you can explain it for me... for i will leave no note and perhaps it may be spontaneous.. a sudden urge to take my own life..


so help me...




and help yourself.. listen to me when i warn you now... do not register into facebook .. or.. you'll end up with a fate as hideous like mine..

its been awhile since anything worth writing has happened in my life... not like there is anything exciting happening now or anything...


i was gonna rant and be a little emo about my A2 results which had just chosen the perfect time to come and ruin whats left of my holidays.. but i am gonna spare anyone who cares enough to read my blog the gruesome and tiresome details...
though i do hope that somehow this could happen... but if only the information could actually stick in my brain instead of killing me... lolz



then i also wanted to write about my overall boring and meaningless holiday that seem to last forever.. with every minute crawling slower inch by inch like a semi-paralysed snail... but right now.. when im just getting used to the holiday thingy... its ending soon... and i was just getting used to staying up late to the wee hours of the mornings, indulged in my all time favourite game.. Ragnarok Online with the Baby of PL1.. Su Cheng... hee hee...
without her.. my " few a.m s' " would be dull and meaningless...

oh well.. life is dull now..
i hope that some excitement will come along before i actually rott...

My Pet Page

got bored during the holidays.. and so.. decided to take pictures of my pets that i have...



PUPPY

my first dog that i own which is still alive.. she is a mongrel like SzeYin.. (dun kill me!)
she used to live in the forest on top of the hill where my house is.. and we just picked her up and brought her home... lol..

we had so many dogs before this (don't ask me what happened to the previous ones.. ) we kinda gave up naming our dogs properly... well.. she was a puppy when we got her.. and so.. we named her Puppy... >.<








EDO
after awhile.. we bought a miniture schnauzer to cure my sister's depression at that time.. so.. he belongs to her...he was about the size of my pencil box when we first got him.. but then.. he just became fat...



we are too lazy to groom him.. so his fur is longer than it is supposed to be..
he is supposed to look like this..

we were nuts about Full Metal Alchemist the anime at that time.. and so.. we decided to name him after one of the characters in that anime.. Edward Elric.. lolz... i just call him Edo-kun..

BoyBoy

ahem.. i told you about the lack of more imaginative names for my dogs.. ahem... the next dog is BoyBoy.. cause.. can you guess... he is a boy dog.. hahaha...

we didn't buy or pick him up or anything.. Puppy got raped.. sniff.. twice.. by entirely different dogs... don't ask me how.. i have no idea... and so.. she got pregnant.. and gave birth to three puppies.. 2 female and 1 male.. we gave away the other 2 and decided to keep one...i dont know why i dont have any pictures of them when they were young... but here is BoyBoy now.. all grown up..





Gumdrop

after that... i got myself a hamster... its a Pearl White Dwarf... i named her Gumdrop cause her eyes looked to me like gumdrops... but in the end.. i just call her nezumi-chan



apart from that, i also have fishes and tortoises.... well.. we didn't name any of them.... though i think that my maids have named the tortoises...






i used to have 9 Indian Stars.. but.. dunno what happened.. they died one by one.. now.. only 4 left... T.T


Mittens



i also have a cat.. it was as easy as pie to name her.. i firstly saw her outside my Vocal Lession Place and she looked really tiny and cute... and i told her.. " if you're still here when i come back, i'll take you home with me.." well.. she was there after the lesson.. and i took her home.. hahaha


i couldn't get a nicer pic of her.. cause she's very.. scary and bitchy.. she'll scratch you and bite you.. because she thinks that she is only playing.. she kinda thinks that she's a dog too... she always fights with my schauzer and wins most of the time.. and she wants to eat my hamster and my newest dog...

finally.. the newest addition to the family..

Socks

this is a recent picture.. she is about 6 months old now...she is really really tiny...

about 9-10 inches in length..

we had a tough time trying to name her.. Clinton came up with names like Tofu or Ganmo or something... and i came up with Socks and Mouse ( because she looks like one).. we finally decided on Socks.. but in the end.. we just call her Baby..

she is supposed to be a Pomeranian.. but she doesn't look like one.. dunno why.. maybe we got cheated... hahahahaha...
because.. she is supposed to look like this..


i wonder what happened to all her fur... >.<

Oh! i used to have birds too... but they flew away... hahaha...

Transformers and Shopping

26th July 2007 (Thursday)



today, Jonathan and I, the two most outdated people in the world went to cure our deprivation by watching TRANSFORMERS in KLCC...


it turned out really REALLY GOOD...
at first, i thought that Transformers may be a little lame considering its about a bunch of alien robots who can transform into cars... but it turned out awesome... hee hee...
it was really cool.. the graphics and stuff... it had a nice plot and everything.. the only thing was that Megatron had died a little too fast.. i thought that it would have abit more action or drama before he actually dies....

after the movie, we went to makan at the FoodCourt again.. (Jon was being a dear and teman-ed me makan breakfast before the movie and THANKYOU for the movie ticket ya!! ^^ )

we headed to Kinokuniya Book Store after that.. after much debate, i bought a book called Voices by Ursula LeGuin.



after that, i headed over to MidValley to meet with ChoyLing for dinner. she was working there part time, as a survey officer with her boyfriend.. i felt like such a lamp post there.... >.<>


i reached MidValley about an hour earlier and decided to go shopping...


my shopping spree started the moment i entered Zara... it was awesome.. i had probally turned the shop upside down looking for clothes.. and in the end.. i bought..








then at MNG..






at GUESS... the bags were at 40% discount.. so i got this one..





finally.. at Vinci, i was already feeling bad after exiting Guess... so i just got this...





all together i think i spent about RM400++... c=










i bought all these in one hour... hahahaha.... father's should never give their daughter's credit cards... super dangerous..... lolz
