Sime Darby Gedung Model Rice Farm - Taiping

*waves from Taiping*

Stayed the nite at the Legend Inn. Nothing much to shout about although the rooms were really spacious and reasonably priced and clean!
Rates are between Rm 80 -120.
I didnt take any photos of the hotel,
but did take photos of this really nice Kopitiam. The food tasted so good although I drove for 3 hours before and was simply famished.

Bits and bobs

HAHAHAHAH WTF???!!!!

Sunderland, Middlesboro and Newcastle threaten to sue united if they play a weaker side against Hull this weekend.
(source: The Star newspaper)

Why are these teams being sore losers? If the whole season you've been playing like crap, dont take it out on the big guns. Man united are just 6 days away from the Champions League final, they cannot afford to injure rooney, ronaldo and gang.

who are they to judge who are Man U's weaker side? If Rooney and Ronaldo play upfront but still lose? You still go down.

In other news

there is a really fat cat hanging around my house lately. It sleeps under the cars huhuhuhu and if you awaken it, it'll run as quick as its legs can carry its fat ass. heheheh so cute.

I have decided not to change cars as not many cars are as good as my Satria Neo. You read that properly. Give me a new car (same category) thats better than the Satria Neo and I can tell you you chose a Mini Cooper (base line model). Sure it costs Rm 140 000. Go ahead and buy one if you have the money.

To change or not to change....

...that is the question.

Some of you may know that I detail cars part time. Click here for some of my work.

Detailing cars require that I travel with a lot of tools and solutions to carry out the job. I use to detail by riding my bike to the customers house. This worked to a certain extent as I didnt need much equipment for the task I was carrying out.

However a full detail job requires lots more tools and a motorbike simply would not suffice. So in the weekends I load up either my mom's car or my own with all the bits and bobs of the trade.

Something doesnt add up.

You see, I am a automobile enthusiast and car detailer therefore I try to keep my car and moms car as clean as possible. Unless of course the weather has been a bitch therefore I simply do not have the time to be detailing both our cars AND customers cars.

Carrying bottles, buckets, brushes, pressure washers is not easy when you have small cars. They also get dirty from being outdoors therefore, I would need some kind of large vehicle to suit the purpose.

Hence I have been thinking of getting a larger vehicle such as a Mitsubishi Triton, Toyota Hilux or a Isuzu D-Max.


Honestly I cannot afford those cars. They come with a 5 person seating capacity AND a flat bed at the back capable of carrying all my equipment needed for detailing sans an electric generator.
To afford one, I will need to get a used version. In Malaysia, Japanese vehicles depreciate really slowly, and to buy one thats close to my budget, I would need to get one close to 6-7 years old. On top of that, the miles on the car would be about 50-60 000 km.

I dont want to dish out Rm 50k, just for a 6 year old car with thousands of kilometers on the clock.

Come to think of it,
I dont really want to part with my car. For as long as I'm still in the country, she belongs to me and no other.

*O_O*

What am I having for lunch today?

Begitu banyak cerita
Ada suka ada duka
Cinta yang inginku tulis
Bukanlah cinta biasa
Dua keyakinan beza
Masalah pun tak sama
Ku tak ingin dia ragu
Mengapa mereka selalu bertanya
Cintaku bukan diatas kertas
Cintaku getaran yang sama
Tak perlu dipaksa
Tak perlu dicari
Kerna kuyakin ada jawabnya
oh...Andai ku bisa merubah semua
Hingga tiada orang terluka
Tapi tak mungkinKu tak berdaya
Hanya yakin menunggu jawapnya
Janji terikat setia
Masa merubah segala
Mungkin dia kan berlalu
Ku tak mahu mereka tertawa
Diriku hanya insan biasa
Miliki naluri yang sama
Tak ingin berpaling
Tak ingin berganti
Jiwa ku sering saja berkata
Andai ku mampu ulang semula
Ku pasti tiada yang curiga
Kasih kan hadir tiada terduga
Hanya yakin menunggu jawapan
