Ok, igobblog has a new home. Hit me at www.gbumr.tumblr.com

Peace out!

Since iphone blogpress giving me shit, I'm changing to blogwriter Lite..

In a completely irrelevant new note, I kinda lazy to run. It was pouring like mad shit jus now..Should I? Earghh!

Go la! Go laaaa!!

What?! Now this message "Failed. Seems your network is not ready for posting" appears.

Not meant to be?

Aiyo crap la my blog is rustic and growing fungus! Thinking of migrating to tumblr. What say u?
Now finding a way on how to transfer my blog content but seems like getting nowhere..
Ok, from now on, I'll try to publish one post per day. ROIGHT!! fingers crossed!

The morning after the race. Lazying in bed, feeling perfectly fine, a lil bit tired. Went to bed at 3

Finished the race in 59 mins. Something that I should be proud of considering the hours of training I clocked in. Running event organisation is someting Malaysia can never quite get it right. Like last night race, getting from car park to the starting line is confusing, there's no distance marker and I don't understand why oh why running event organizer loves to make us walk at least half a km after the finishing line to get water, medal n food. DUMB!

Lordy, my legs are fine but right arm is still sore from the Wii on Friday night. I was on it for just 15 mins. Man, definitely need to work the upper body area...

Laters.

Last night was my first ever racing at night. Putrajaya night race 7.7km. It was a great turn out. 8000 over participants I heard.
Flagged off was at 9p.m. It was really warm considering it rained earlier. I was quite consistent for the first 3km, then the usual bowel syndrome attacked. Iv already gone to the John earlier...time to focus on the other stuff. I'm glad it went away, was thinking of pulling away from the race if the "sakit perutness" won't stop.
Fatique started hitting me at 5km. And as usual I half walk n run. Saw Amir passed me n I cut him after. Then he passed me n I couldn't be bothered to run after him. I finished it in 50 mins, which is quite bad since iv bn running for quite a few.
Overall great turn out, organisation can be improved and I prefer racing at nite than in the morning now. Next, energizer night race, putrajaya, 10km.

Oh my lord..just came back from work. I'm all sticky n tired. Was at a property shoot in Bukit jelutong. Today is actually a part 2 of 2 days shoot. We covered mostly interior shot pretty much yesterday. It's scorching hot. They have like at least 10 a.c units in there but none of em work. Hahahahaah.






Today was supposed to be an exterior shot but man oh man as we prepped to shoot outdoor, it's raining. We waited for at least for an hour for the rain to stop but naaaah..it's not stopping...
AND AS A RESULT, TOMORROW CALL TIME IS AT 6 a freaking m! Meaning at the location by 6! Whoopedoo!

Whoa..what a great run I had today. It's been while. 6.5km around Damansara heights. Those hills are a killer. I need new running shoes..

Just came back from watching LEGION. Don't quite like it. Those 2 angels are pretty gay. Shoulder pads and wings? Need I say more?

The long awaited apple tablet is finally here and it's called iPad! Hahahah. I know what a name. For a person who's been working on pad account, I have like 20 over jokes regarding the name. One of them is; apple is launching smaller version of iPad later this year. It's called iTampon! Hehe

But it's one amazing gadget I must say. Something that u have to have to snuggle with before bedtime. And don't think gonna change my iPhone for an iPad, unless it comes with wings. Hahahah!

Adios

M I fickle? Don't think so but I do admit I'm easily convinced!

As you guys know I booked a new Honda city last month, grade S. And after a lot (half an hour, that's quite a lot of sec in it) of consideration, I'm changing to grade E which is the premium spec. Price wise is rm5k difference but since I spread it to 108 months, monthly repayment difference is about rm58. So, called up my sa today n was told I have to wait till July now. Aiyaiyai! It's better late than never I guess. Shouldve thought this thing over even before I book it. I thot I did, k never mind. Better sakit hati now than later. Well the difference between s and e spec are mainly the accessories like paddle shift which I stil don't know what the hell for, steering audio control, speakers, fold over n reclining backseat, retractable side mirror etc. I just don't want to regret it later and think by adding another rm58 monthly I could get the stuff mentioned earlier. Billy bob, ur staying with me till july. Wait.. It's the other way around. Be kind to me billy!

My previous post has somewhat sparkd me to blog about this. It's true what they say that idea comes when u least expect it. Heh? True-ISH.

Anyway..when I was growing up where money is limited; iv bn told so many times if I want something I have to earn it. Like I remember when I really wanted to get my hands on the new smash hit magazine which cost about RM11 back then, I helpd my aunt selling "kuih" and save like whatever she gave me at the end of the day. I was kinda embarassed when my classmate saw me and stuff but nothing beats the joy of getting my hands on the mags! woohoo! I remember letting it wrapped in the plastic bag and only opened it after I cleaned up. I guess it's the process of how u get it is the highlight of everything.

Why I want to blog about this is because kids nowadays got it easy! I'm not blogging about this just because I had a rough time growing up and not because I'm comparing the life of the rich and poor. It's simply because IMHO they don't earn anything they got. Most kids in town nowadays carry a handphone (and not just any handphone) which I only have when I first started working. And partly I'm blaming the parents for this. I know a lot of ppl don't agree with me on this. Handphone is a necesity nowadays, I bet they'r gonna say that but that's not the point of this matter. It's how rather than what. It's really hard for the kids to be independant when parents are acting like the genie in a bottle. And I'm also not denying the fact that the time now is different than when I was a 10 y.o. The pace of life is rapidly changing and we are fed with what we could have on tvc every single day!

Well, Im not done with stressing my point here yet. Il be visiting this post sometime soon

Good nite people. (I'm wondering what happen to that smash hit magazine now?)

There's an old saying of never mentioning about getting a new car
or selling it off while ur driving, cz it might just stoppd on u. I guess it's true cz that's what happening to me now! What happened was the odometer (is that the right spelling?) broke, rpm stays at 4 and it's jerky all the way
home jus now. This is not the first time it happened!

Man I love my Billy Bob, I do but enough is enough! I just spent almost 1k on maintenance alone in January. And I don't know how much tomorrow gonna cost me; sending it to workshop first thing in the morning. But looking back it was a good 7 years! and Billy Bob please get it through till I get my new ride...

I'm gonna have a proper good bye to Billy Bob when the time comes. Nothing in mind yet what m I gonna do. Hahahahha listen to me...m I a loser? I guess that's normal, feeling blue letting something go after 7 years. My first car which I bought with my own money! Hold on a sec...I bought everything with my own money. There u go! I guess growing up the hard way has taught me a lot of thing; to be satisfy with what u have, live within ur needs and know how to pick urself up when u fall!

Isn't technology supposed to make us live better and make it easier in this fast pace current life?

I just found out today I have to go back all the way to usj to make a bank draft. HOW STUPID IS THAT? Y usj? Cz that's where I opened the goddamn account. I was told the security is tighter now. Uh huh! Yeah right! So i'm thinking should I just close the one in usj and open up a new account near the office? But what about my current S.I? Jeezz! Isn't there any other easier like just punch this number, swipe that card n tick that box and everything will be settled and transfered? Isn't banking supposed to be easy? Y do I have to go back to freakin usj? Man, looks like there's no other way than to brave myself thru the usj jam. And they should be opened on Saturday and Sunday cz that's the day wr not working. They can close the other days for all I care! Well maybe not. Or maybe they can have staff that's working on shift. Like weekly shift Yeah! It should be like that. So normal ppl like us who's slaving away and not seeing daylight can do our banking in the weekend. And my problem will be solved, and I can blog about other stuff LOL!

It's been awhile..not that long, 2 weeks to be exact..

I'm waiting patiently stil for my new ride. Just bought the car reg. No the other day, it's gonna be awesome n quite personal. Can't believe it I can be so bloody excited over car reg. no. Hahahah. How old am I? 5? Yeah i'm acting that age mostly. Ask my mum. She would say yes wout missing a heartbeat. Well, first thing first i'm gonna pimpin and lickin my ride good. Gettin a locktech (brake paddle lock), coil mat with Honda emblem (sweet!), tint (whatever ken ken uptown got in store for me) and pps (paint protection spray). Been following this useful new Honda city forum over lowyatt.net forum under the fast n furious section. Really neat! And friendly ppl...All I gotta do now is wait. Zul, my honda sa said il get it next month or early may. Oh well...

Me been running vigorously (or trying to) but rain has been intervening in my routine lately. It's kinda sucks! and I have my first 11km run since iv stopped running in 2 weeks time. Must push myself harder. Stil can't run up them hills. That's crap! n smoking is not helping.

Laters. Gotta wake up early for morning run

The search for my Billy bob has finally come to an end when I paid booking fees for the sexy the-all-new Honda city yesterday. I'm stil excited! Let's cross fingers, hoping loan process etc runs smoothly. This will be my sec biggest purchase after my Parkville (I refuse to call it park villa).

I'm getting the 's' grade, the lower end model. And polished metal metallic color a.k.a dark grey. Probably have to wait til end April/early May.

And now the question is, should I tint the car now or should I wait? Hmmmm...

Just came back from test drive sx4 n Honda city. Il let u guys know my experience test driving this 2 sexy beast! And if u guys expecting review of the engines n shit, FORGETIT! Me know shit bout engines

3 o'clock when I arrived at Suzuki Bangsar showroom. The girl that I made an appointment with wasn't there. She's on leave, I was told later. While waiting for tash I went to snoop around sx4. It's like Monet, only nice from far. Well in my humble opinion at least. Exterior is sturdy, impressive and CUTE. Interior is a different case altogether. It looks very plasticky and toy like. It's quite compact. I was told by the girl I made appointment with that sx4 is iPod compatible but guess what? IT'S NOT! Well, not iPod ready at least. That's quite misleading. And all this while I was snooping around, the sa was behind me n din say anything. He doesn't know how to sell! Tash came n we went for a test drive. She drove. I was quite takut to drive at first. Helooo! Only driving my own car for 8 years n never anything els. It's quite a smooth ride. Then I took over the steering wheel. NERVOUS! First thing I saw was the side mirror. It's huge! Hehe. Which is good I suppose. Wow this piece of machine was beginning to impress me. It's really light! Drove around Bangsar for at least 10 mins. All in all i'd give 3 out of 5 for smooth ride and 0.5 for interior styling.

Then wr off to Honda showroom which is just a block away. The sa called me before wr arrived just like he said. Man, I think they need to to sumthing with the parking space at this area. Thank god, there's not many ppl. We were greeted by the sa. Very friendly chap. The new Honda city is parked impressively in front of the showroom. Black in colour. First look I thot it was a civic. WOW! It's bold, classy and defo looks sturdy. Sporty too!. N he showed me the interior. And that's when I made up my decision. It certainly carries that Honda classiness. Black carpet mat, dark blue-ish seat (water repellant). AND ITS IPOD READY. I brought my iPod along just for this purpose. The sa told me to test it out. He pretty much said to treat it like my own car. There's a lot of compartment to put ur knick knacks. I'm luvin the velvety seat stil. The backseat is really spacious. Ample headroom and comfortable leg space. We went inside the showroom to talk $$! Meanwhile tash is impressed by the new jazz. Luvin the turqoise colour on jazz stil, tash! The sa showed me the new interest loan rate from the bank. It's even lower now. Outside it started to rain. They offered me extra rm500 discount and smart tag with rm50 top up. NOICE! What sx4 sa offered me was tshirt n umbrella. Haha. It's time for a test drive. My heart was thumping. The rain made me even more nervous. But the sa guy was really accommodating and made sure i'm comfortable for the ride. It's not as light as sx4s but defo sturdier. It's really smooth and can't hear the engine whirring or whatsoever. Oh anyway, I test drove grade e which is the higher spec with paddle shift and audio control on the steering wheel. And tevin Campbell is blasting away from my iPod. Tasha said the backseat is so spacious, she had to move forward to hear me n the sa spoke. I did tekan minyak for a bit around hartamas area for testing purposes. Vroooooommm! Great! No jerky, nuthin! Unlike my billy bob! (luvin u stil billy bob). Eh wait, one thing I noticed there's no wiper at the back. Should I be worried? And I think I adjusted the seat too high, at one point my feet was dangling! Hahaha. All in all i'd give 2.5 out of 5 for smooth driving and 3.5 for interior styling.

Tasha later decided to give it a go at the jazz. It's really a cute n nice car but waaay out of my budget.

So I guess pretty much, u guys know now which sexy beast i'm gonna get.

I guess it's time for me to change my Billy Bob (that's what I call my car). I try not to change car by all means with starting to pay house loan instalment next year and what not but jeeeezz...can't go up Damansara hills every morning to work is pretty bad!

Did a little research, sx4 price is a bit on the steep side but the design is amazing and kinda cute. But one thing that concern me tho is the boot space. That's gonna be a major problem when going back to BP. My beloved mum LUVESSSS to angkut all the thing she couldv when at going travelling. Ok that's one. Two, it's 1.6, so I guess fuel consumption won't be as hot as city.

The new Honda city is kinda ok with the design bit even tho I'm not too sure with the grille design. It looks too much like optimus prime. Side profile is devilishly looking good, the back ... ERKKK! Economic fuel consumption would probably what sell me the car and oh the boot space. Oh have I mentioned both cars are compatible with iPod. WOOHOO!

Ok I guess I'm gonna have to make a lil visit to Honda showroom after test driving sx4...

Il post a picture of what car il b buying. Stay tune!
