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 Head units there are mostly months outdated.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...

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...

golf..

I had the chance to try golf yesterday. My colleague offered to teach me some of the basics so we off to Miri Golf Club for a few 'noob' hit at the driving range. Golf ain't easy eh.. We paid 5 bucks for 50 balls... that's 10 cents for a ball. Ok, I think it worth. If I make a bad hit, it's equivalent to throwing a 10 cents coin into the river. Hahah. It's gonna be a while for me to train myself to hit the ball most of the time. Currently, I'm already feeling the after effect of swinging the golf club. Muscle aches... Anyway, lets not stop halfway here...
