Life cycle

As I grow up, things I will experience (in order):

* Which technique of throwing a guli (marble) is best
* How to impress girls
* Cars and cellphones
* Buying homes and getting married
* The best baby food, diapers
* Best school for your kids
* Hypertension/cholesterol-lowering medications
* Adult diapers
I saw a TV3 car near the train station just now.

I know I am famous and deserve all that attention. They didnt have to do that tho.

不必急

在情场上我又遇上了错折.第四次了.

下定决心不要再爱上别人.

在爱情路上我跌了好多次. 伤痕累累.

我不想再被伤害了..

还是专心继续为学业和事业打拚吧!

还是等到我能够经济独立,成熟稳定时才考虑这些吧!

我想这样才对我,对我的她,负责任. 这样才不会浪费彼此的时间..

如果拍拖最后的结局并不是结为夫妻那不是在浪费彼此的青春,时间,金钱,和无端端限制了两人的自由吗?

其是,这些东西,都是众所周知的吧..

更何况,真爱的起中之一特征是不含妒嫉,我本人还没本事做到这点,若先在突然有了g友,一定不会有好的结果..

想必一定会有些人觉得我的想法好极端,甚至老套,但为我和我伴,想得再多也是值得的!

i got Ferrari-ed

*clicks on the pause button on windows media player.*

Pindrop....

...Silence.

Ah thats so much better.

These 2 days only me and my bro at home. Both parents went to KL. Mum accompnying dad for eyes check-up. Decision whether to undergo operation isnt finalised until everything is confirmed first. It isnt anything serious though. Naturally I had to stay back because bro had classes, tuitions and also guitar exam. The whole house is filled with an air of emptiness these few days. Seconds seem like minutes and days seem like months. Watched all on Youtube. Watched most of the shows on TV (no more Premier League anymore makes boredom an active monster). Watched V for Vendetta on DVD. Watched 3 movies at MBO cinema already. Countless yamcha sessions.

This holiday is starting to get stale.

Watched a documentary of the Ferrari factory in Maranello which shot the whole process of making a Ferrari 599 GTB, the newest model to hit the market, which IMO one of the most gorgeous cars. Apparently they use all the best stuff for the car. The paintwork is simply fab. The metal frame of the car is sprayed on by a special paint sprayer which sprays paint at very very fine particles. After that, a layer of ceramic coating is applied on the frame, also by spraying. CERAMIC! On your cars' body! Imagine that. After that,the paintwork is checked by an electronic detector that swoops over every inch of the exterior, detecting defects of 1/10 of an mm! If any defects are found, the frame is sent back for respraying. My favourite colour is of course, the signature Ferrari chilli red. Other colors looks damn cool too. That goes without saying. Because that car proudly wears the prancing horse badge.

The interior is handcrafted by seamstresses specially trained by Ferrari. Yes, every piece of leather in the cockpit is stitched together by hand, including the dashboard, seats and side panels. Ferrari can meet the customers' demand for leather in every colour imaginable; they dye premium quality leather (used in European furniture) specially mixed to the clients' liking. They also do colour combinations for the interior. This also means that...in a Ferrari, there can be unlimited number of customisations..just for the interior alone. I personally prefer white leather. I must admit..natural brown and grey looks good too.

The suspension is also sophisticated, albeit very. Instead of normal oil used in shock absorbers, electronically charged fluids are used in thie Ferrari's absorbers. Even the slightest bumpiness is detected by a computer connected to the suspension and it readjusts itself suit the situation. These absorbers are specially developed in the USA for Ferrari; no other car company comes close to matching it. I suppose at well over 200k Euros for a car, customers demand the very best...and thus a lot of RND is needed.

The car is fixed together by hand...imagine the man hours poured into making one car. I shall skip this...

To the track. Every Ferrari rolled out of the assembly line is tested by Ferrari's own test drivers at their racetrack. Any discrepancies from the claimed performance figures are detected by computer. Any defects are quickly put right so that every car is the same performance wise. The car is later driven in Maranello (a small tiwn the birthplace of Ferrari) so that it undergoes the same procedure in real life conditions. Again, feedback is transmitted via computers for the car to be improved,so that Ferrari's customers get nothing but the best.

The Italins really love their cars. The styling is simply amazing, breathtaking and wonderful. All thanks to their artsy creativity and aesthetic sense. They take great pride and slog to produce Ferraris. I have utmost respect for them all the while, but even more so after this episode.

After watching this documentary I feel that if I had the money, a Ferrari is definitely well worth every penny spent on it. The detail, man power, handcraft, expertise, technology, beauty are incorporated into one lean, mean machine.

Simply stunning.

random Ryan motion

-sprained toe hasnt completely healed yet. cannot go futsalling, jogging or jungle trekking yet. so boring at home. might try swimming tomorrow morning (swimming puts less pressure on the joints) and get a tan. the colour of my skin is like steamed chicken. zzz

-had kfc and steamed chicken for dinner yesterday. so much protein, the colour of my urine was a deep yellowish. at least it wasnt orange, which is still not too bad.

-have been dieting a lot with my main meals recently. the serving of the rice i am currently having is less than the size of my fist after flattening the rice out. it gets so sien when you cant eat the food you like. rewards? a scant 1 kilogram decrease in my weight. 1KG ONLY! i am wondering is this all worthwhile. =.=

-been feeling lazy these days..always sleep during the afternoon but sleep very late at night. never seem to wake up early also.

-watched oceans thirteen with frens just now. the cinema was damn cold. regretted that i didnt bring my sweater along. took some candid shots in the toilet. it is in my friendster for all to see now.

-left eye itchy, dunno why, might be eyelashes fallen into my eyes. cant seem to shrug the itchiness off. how to sleep lidat?
