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 diffuser
- and if kena loteri, I'll change the suspension as well

and that is purely for handling.

Power wise, I'm quite satisfy with Myvi. You don't hit top speed here in Miri. So it's much nicer to hear the small engine revving to catch up speed than the light grunt of a big cc engine building speed effortlessly. In Miri, small engined cars but with higher low end torque will give a smile to spirited drivers.

(big dick or small dick, you still pee)

But I think I might do something to improve the low end torque like:
- installing CAI (cold air intake)

To give a better feel of the car, I will need to soundproof the car a little bit and harness the car with stuffs like autofoam.

And I mentioned about Char Kuey Teow. As Penang representative, I conducted a QC on today's batch. It costed RM4.00 and was way below Penang 'ok ok la .. can eat la' standard. I completed my report (habis makan lah makna nya) and went back.

I think I need to set up a committee on CKTsd ( Char Kuey Teow Sustainability Development). To develop and expand CKT without compromising the taste bud and stomach of customer.

Anyway, I better start saving for my project.

easier said than done..

A recent conversation with a friend made me realise there are so much things, when said is ideal, when done might turn out to be less pleasant. Well of course one cannot run away from continuously managing an activity or action so that it does not turn ugly at all. Continuous management is what human tend to call, commitment. And who the hell made that word up, I've missed an M the first time I wrote it! As far as I lived to write this post today, I am 'proud' to still not tied down by the human-termed 'commitment'. I can have all the 365 days for myself, all my earnings for myself (of course I voluntarily treat my family which made me happy, and that's what I do for myself too) and all the time for myself. I can safely assume that I have almost zero commitment. Probably as the level of maturity heightens with age, responsibility and commitment come into play naturally. Not sure if from zero to hero sounds great when it is about commitment to everyone but I gues...

Leisure Driving

I've just returned from driving around Miri. From Miri Airport bypass to Miri-Pujut road. I stopped by a bakery to ease my stomach after paying so much attention on the road. (maybe it's the brunch, not the drive..lol) When I returned home. I felt so wasted. The road is not twisty and I wasn't even in a fun hot hatch. I was doing a spirited driving in a TOWN CAR! Boring. If I were to be relocated back to KL someday, bet that I would get a car that I could appreciate the thrill of driving up to Genting once in a while for a short getaway from the city. Well, Miri aint city... there's no my claimed 'getaway' for me here. Nevertheless, my current car is a decent one, a nippy zippy town car. Just that sometimes it serves the wrong purpose. Tried hard to cope with my demand. lol. I'm not abusive of my car. I'm more of touge style that drag. I guess 2 more tyres are ready to go. In short, the car is here to stay although it did not really meet my expectation. ...

we asked for it..

I was surfing the internet for privileged banking criteria as I really hate queuing in the bank just to handle some small matter. Not that I am earning loads, but I am looking forward for the day. ... until I came across a forum where a person mentioned, with ebanking, transactions are done without even leaving your home. Ah, that's right. Most of the time now, I just manage transactions via online banking. Probably larger sum requires me to visit the branch but common people can just manage their account in front of their laptop. So, I thought, probably 10 years ahead, there will be only 2-3 frontline bankers in each branch rather than the sum we have now. Same to many industries, with expansive of specialization and automation, probably the world might need more maintenance technician rather than the person who once did the job before machines took over. Hahaha... sounds terminated? I'd rather say retrenched (similar terminated term in workforce hahah) Similar to LEAN. LEAN i...
