Driver of the day

im finally blogging! heh. kg made me move my ass to blog. hmmm. lemme see. work's fine, just that the temps ended work already and i miss their presence at work. getting more and more boring at work.

hmm after i passed i've drove like 2 times? haha. yup. last saturday i drove kg and yan from ritz carlton to beak's hse at s'goon gardens. and being a lost sheep at the east area of sg i got lost and we ended up passing by geylang and finally made our way there with the help of sher's colleague. we then went to heartland mall's Xin Wang for supper. nice catching up with them. drove them home after that.

yest, i drove to waterloo street with kg to pray at the temple. then we came back to gek poh to have fish slice soup before fetching my family to hyundai's lengkee showroom. heh. my aunt introduced us a SE and my family bought a 1.4a getz opc, in that hot hot red colour. heh. drove my family home after that. then we went to kg's grandma hse for a nap. i dreamt that i got booked for not displaying parking coupon! so scary. cos i cheated by putting only half an hr but parked for 3 hrs instead. ha. then i fetched kg's grandma to go clementi to fetch kg's mum home. hah.

brought kg's sister out for a spin after that. we decided to go IMM, and called meiyan down too. in the end imm's carpark is full and we went boonlay mkt instead. had dinner there and called jx and cy and see if they are free to go chill. went back to fetch jx and then went NUH to fetch cy and we headed to west coast park macs. my first time there. quite a nice place to chill. lots of ppl there too. chatted till 12am+ and we went off and i fetched them all home. and yup that's abt it. my weekends. lol. sometimes i think driving is very tiring, yet i love to cruise down the expressway alone in the car, singing to the songs on the radio. ha. cant wait for my car to arrive :D

class 3 graduate

I PASSED MY DRIVING TEST!!! wooohooo. like finally! 3rd attempt, spending almost $1.3k $2k on it. im now a Class 3 Graduate! hehehehehehe.

woke up at 8 in the morning. had kimchi ramen for breakfast and HL milk. i cant drive without eating. haha. bathed and took a cab there so that i wun be in a rush. finally got the chance to take the new hyundai cab! ha. but i prefer the silvercab kia lah. hmm. reached and instructor let me drive one round outside as it's still early. went into circuit at 10am to practice. wasn't in the perfect condition as i keep forgetting to check, and driving was baddd. was quite worried as there were too many tp cars inside and i only practiced vertical parking once. that was my weakest point. waited outside the room with my heart thumping and tried to calm myself down. ahhh was too familiar with the whole procedure of balloting. lol. now they got sofas for us to sit while waiting! lol.

alamak. i tio a tp tester who's very stern. didnt chat at all. but quite charming lah. haha. this time round i took a deep deep breath b4 i start. and although my legs are sour i try hard not to let it tremble. cleared all the stations without any demerit points. haha. deducted some minor mistakes on the road and i passed! with 10 demerit points. heh. he didnt even want to debrief me. just gave me my paper and ask me to go see video. -__________- oh and im lucky i got the easy route. route 7. not teck whye luckily. phew... ahhh anyway, pass liao! dun need to waste time waste money go lessons again! yeyeyeyeyeyeyey!

Live Earth

it's 07/07/07 today! Earth day. so cool. i started being aware of being eco-friendly only until recently. seated beside a printer at office, i often felt so heart pain when my colleagues print wrong stuff on wrong paper. everyday we shred abt 10 over pieces of paper as there's customers' info in it and we cant recycle. but im very guilty of the styrofoam im using everyday. for my tea, for my breakfast. all the vendors use styrofoam. hmm. im watching Live Earth now and i think its very cool. although like wad FD said over at class 95, its ironic to have us all switch on the TV to watch this event on conserving energy. ha. imagine the waste of power having to set up the concert halls at 7 different countries. but i still think its cool. we shld be constantly reminded to conserve energy.

Here's a few things i can pledge:

-try not to on aircon whenever possible. Do u know that u can save 900kg or $300 a year if u set the temp at 25deg? that's alotttt.

-not to on the tv when im not watching it.

-not to on the fan when im not using it too. im guilty of this. but now i off it when im not in the room alrd. heh.

-TRY not to buy tea so often. i'll buy a tumbler and make my own 3-in-1 milk tea every morning.

-off the switches in my house. this is very impt cos its not a tradition of my family to off it. so guilty. heh.

-bath cold water as far as possible. im guilty of on-ing water heater for a very long time. not goood.

-recycle! i always give Today and My Paper to the cleaner auntie every fri to recycle it. and i want to get the 'I am not a plastic bag' bag when sg sells it! so nice. heh.

okiee i think thats abt it for now. off to watch the concert already!
