Seriously, I am so pissed off now. I woke up on Saturday to find that I cannot switch on the computer, it refuses to enter the windows and keep having this 'NTLDR is missing. Press CRTL + ALT and DEL'. So stupid. I was wondering if I can bring it over to some computer shop to get it fixed as quickly as possible. I need to do my assignment. Then, I thought, at least my work is saved into my thumbdrive so it's ok. I can use Emma's laptop for the time being. So, I think I will bring the laptop to 'clinic' on Tuesday. I found the place already, it is on Blenheim Road, have to change buses in Riccarton Mall to get there. Unless, I can get someone to drive me there. Not to forget, I need to bring in my specs for them to change my lens. Sigh... so many things to do, I haven't finish my assignment yet. I am editting it and Plut(Peter) is doing the rest of the questions.
Went to watch Pirates of the Carribean on Thursday night with Daniel, Ailers and Emma. Before that, I went to dinner with Ailers, Daniel and Yani (from ICF, friends). Emma wasn't with us because she had a test. We went to Osaka to eat. It is a Japanese restaurant and the food are really nice. Love it.
Anu got her car on Saturday. Good for her. I want one too. Emma and I were seriously thinking of getting one, as in sharing all the cost and we have to tell our parents first. I knew the answer I would get from mum is no. I was dreading to ask but Liyana and Emma asked me to ask anyhow. So, I asked and the answer is the same. I know the consequences also but still, I asked anyway.
Yea.. I guess I will just have to wait. And my goal now is to save money to buy a car, this time, I am not going to aim for just convienient car. I am going to look at Celica Toyota. Yea.. you may think it's too flashy but since mum said I can buy my own car when I graduate, I am going to buy my dream car. Muahaha!
I am thinking of taking up internship or whatever job in the next summer. It's good for me as I, at least, have something to do. I won't be bored. I am doing something for myself as in getting work experience. I am earning my own money. Yay!!
Er.. this is only a plan, it's not confirmed yet. I have not even told my parents directly. I was just thinking.
Sometimes I feel that I ask too much from my parents and I feel guilty. I am 20 already and I should get a job if I wanted something. I know I have almost everything. I am just greedy. I shouldn't be.
But I know I will have those times of saying, 'I want a car.' Then I get so excited of looking and got upset later, thinking, I won't be able to get it with the big sigh. And tell myself, never mind, I bdon't NEED a car. I can manage without one. I have been since last year.
But you know what? I must sound crazy (to myself early 2006) to tell Mum to sell off the car. Why did I not think about the future that I might move out and need it? I feel guilty asking my friends to help me to move my stuff every year. So, I asked diffrent friends. I have got a lot of stuff. I bought some pans this year. I brought back rice cooker and steamer from London. Plus, I have even more stuff from London. Wow.. a lot eh.. Don't think about the stuff I brought back and bought this year, it practicaly filled up the whole car. Don't believe? You can ask Anu or Raymond (Lynn Xuan's friend and also mine now). Crazy and I hate moving my stuff. It's tiring but I have no choice. So yea..
Emma and I have times of saying, I wish I got a car when we missed the bus or bought a lot of stuff from the supermarket.
At least Anu is willing to help out. I asked her if she can take us to warehouse to buy the big containers, Emma and I need those to put some of our stuff.
Guess what? I am going to miss my freedom when we moved into Uncle Marvin's house. It's homestay and we have curfews then. It's not like we go out every night. It's just that when we watched movies at night, it finishes at 11 sth and since we take the bus, we only reach home about 12 sth. Or if we decide to go for supper outside, we may reach home about 1 sth. Also, we don't have to walk Liyana back home. Anu can drop her at her flat. Anu was telling us on Friday night when we went to Ancestral, that was probably the last time we took the bus out together. Cos after that? CAR!!!! Hahaha..

wah.. such a long post.. i think u can go ahead with wat u planned la but first u must seek advice and opinions from ur parents and frens. don't just go ahead with ideas u have esp if they are big ones. i know u can't always depend on ppl all the time but u must at least talk to them about it and see wat they say. don't just jump into wat u want to do.
yes CAR!!! =)
Ya.. long post, i just sort of babble on, i was doing my math assignment on emma's laptop. my laptop has gone dead on me and i need to get it to the clinic soon.
Your advice? Ok la.. I will have to talk to ppl la. That was why I asked mum. But I know what she will say. So no point in asking for a car, rite? I keep delaying the asking till now. But ya.. come to think about it, I dun need a car. I can manage without one la. Just when there are times of saying, argh.. i want a car.. rite, em?
Jas, don't dwell in it anymore. Respect your parents' decision. They have their own reasons. Some more, I also don't have car in KL... Osbert better still. No driving license!! You 'teman' us lah.. ahhahah
ooi!! don't rub it in la.. next time u all would have to drive me then... hahha :P
O.. Yala.. i'm not thinking about it. i know it's a hassle having one as well.
I am more worried about my laptop and how to get there.
I do not mind driving ppl around if I have a car. =)
I love driving around anyway.
Are they cabs to take to go there, Jas? I take cabs nowadays. One may think it's pricey, but count the parking fee, ever-increasing petrol price, road tax, car insurance, car maintainence etc.. can justify the cost, I suppose?
Btw, Os.. when are you planning to take your driving test?
Cabs are even more expensive. I'll take the bus la. Cheaper. Dun worry la.. Kan I am the map person? I won't get lost. Do I ever get lost?
I am dragging Emma with me.
yeah pity me :( if i fail my test its all because of u. muahahahha!
I think if you order a cab to move your things the next time when you move house, it will be cheaper or maybe look for those shuttle cars. consider Xuan's analysis, it is really troublesome to own a car, that's the reason why you stay in the uni, for convenience, right? I can also see that Emma is STRONG and KIND enough to help you to carry the shopping!! hehehe......
Erm.. which one are we talking about?
Mum is talking about the moving house? I think Uncle Marvin is helping us to move our stuff, he got a van. See first la. No need to worry about that.
I assume Lynn Xuan is talking about me taking a cab to the computer shop? I am taking the bus. Hehe! I need teman ma.. and emma!! u're not supposed to be commenting in classes. Pay attention to ur lecturer la.
exactly! thank you aunty :)
