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 Head units there are mostly months outdated.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?!

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. ...
