Failed ICE Plan

Lately, I am so in In Car Entertainment craze. Went to ask around several shops for quotation. In brief, those shops sell their stuff kinda expensive, if compared to online price. Finally, there is one shop that sells (only) their speakers competitively. Head units there are mostly months outdated.

So. this is my plan.. head unit Pioneer 7150; a pair of Sony 6" mid bass woofer (with tweeters) in the front and a pair of 6"x9" medium end woofer at the back. 6 speakers set up...

Alas, one salesperson, assuming that he's an ICE pro, advised me that this set up in Myvi would not produce much bass as I expect. The car interior design is such way that it's not as easy to set up a decent system like those in sedan cars.

One solution: add subwoofer. Okay, an alpine active subs there waiting for me. Costing almost RM800. I straight away bo mood (no mood)... and given that the factory Myvi sound insulation is bad, I was not as enthusiastic as before in Myvi ICE...

Sounds great but over the budget...


So that's my story... wanna insulate car but failed; reason: cost... wanna upgrade ICE but failed; reason: same...

Money rules everything...

Office in Weekend= Library in Unim

Spend some of my weekend hours in the office. Nostalgically, this scenario reminds me back at the days when I visited the library. Spent the 1st 30 mins fiddling books, and the remaining hours chatting with friend, surfing internet while waiting for friends call to go for a short (like 40 mins) tea break outside the university. And now, I'm waiting for colleagues' call to head for cinema.. tickets bought already anyway. Life in Miri is much more easy going than in KL. Office is just 5 minutes away from my home, cinema/ town 15 minutes from office. No jam, more time, but lack of crazy funny stuff to do. Hope my boss don't see this... ahaha..just kidding but hey, isn't today Saturday?!

Rediscovering Hobby

Just arrived hotel room, I decided to blog. 1 hour earlier, I felt so sleepy in my suite. no nice movie, no happenings. I had a simple dinner earlier due to uneasy stomach. So, I am bored and a little hungry and grabbed my car key and headed down to basement. I drove up to Hilltop area and down to town and then up to Luak and down to Pelita where I ended up with Char Kuey Teow in my stomach. It's fun to drive here at night. Empty, twisty roads, hilly slopes and smooth pavements and most importantly, I see no traffic police. That doesn't mean I'm speeding. I'm no speeder now. I'm more into appreciating conners and twists. I'm in a 1.3 Myvi and I was enjoying the ride. It could be better if the handling is more precise and encouraging. Power is not the priority for my ride now, it's the handling. I figured what I need to have in my Myvi. -A rear strut bar (I have one in front already) - GAB/ Eibach sports spring -15" light weight wheels - All round diffus...

Infactuation

Somehow, I grew fond of her. I wanted to see her everyday, be with her. Today, I spent 3 hours washing her on the inside. Finally she's clean. I bet previously her master does not take care of her that well, can see from misalignment, poor hygiene etc. Then, in the evening I took her to an accessory shop and present her an arm rest. It suited her rather well. I've just kick started my career so hope she will bear with me. I promised to get her something nicer when I'm better off with my job. demure looking Man, I can't wait to see her in skirts. Her 'future' skirts... Don't swt...
