how fragile is a relationship?

Today i woke up quite early.. think about 10am.. yeah, it's consider early as almost everyday, i'd wake up only when the sun is directly under my head.. hehe.. went out with my mum and had lunch with her.. while i was with my mum, my friend, han called me.. he asked me if i'm interested to check out some cars with him as he's planning to get another car.. so i agreed..

I've known my friend, han for about 2 years now.. think he's older than me a year or 2.. he's one of the share holders for a car accessories workshop which is just nearby my place.. i've worked with him before.. i was just a cashier.. hehe.. at that time it was just a part time job for me til i find another job.. anyways, han is a good friend of mine.. even after i stopped working there, i'd some times drop by his place to say hi or i'd intro some customers to him.. i helped him to advertise his viper alarm on zth forum where i met my hubby.. i've even brought my hubby to his shop before to install a strobe light and han tested my hubby's 'monster'.. hehe..

So, han came over to pick me up at about 1.45pm.. today is his off day.. i asked him which car he's planning to get.. he told me he got few choices.. it's either a Honda City or a Honda Jazz or even an old Nissan Sentra 1.8L.. we went to Ampang as it's the nearest from my place for the Honda showroom.. Honda is having some promotion now.. i left han and the sales person to talk about the purchase while i talked to my hubby on the phone..

After that, han drove to cheras.. to take a look at the 2nd hand cars.. we stopped by a few car dealers shop but there were no nice cars.. we went to selayang then.. still no cars that he likes.. the Sentra were all 1.6L *sigh*.. we stopped by for a meal at some mamak and we spent some time chatting.. i just found out that he broke up recently.. i was SHOCK! it was like a 4 years relationship.. how fragile could it be? he told me his ex gf broke it up as she said she doesn't have anymore feelings for him.. but still they're friends.. why friends? coz according to him, it's none of anyone's fault.. it's both sides.. no one is right or wrong in a relationship.. that IS sooooooooooo true.. er... right? he doesn't have much time for his ex gf due to his work and i think his ex gf must've been complaining as well.. of course he was heartbroken but what can he do? he can't asked his ex gf to stay as she might stay for the relationship sake but her heart won't be with him.. so he told me might as well they break up and take some time off.. he said if it's meant to be, they'd be back together again.. i agree.. all he'd be doing now is to focus on his career and have a stable good income..

He told me also that most of his relationships went wrong after 3 years.. so i suggested to him to get married after 2 years of dating! lol! i told him it's not the matter of time.. it's a matter if you've found the right one or not.. your true soulmate.. like how i found mine :) i took the opportunity to ask him what he thinks of my hubby.. he said he likes my bb! heehee.. not as in like like.. my friend isn't gay, ok? :p he likes my bb coz my bb is friendly and nice.. yea, my bb is *grinning*

I got home quite late.. i think about 5pm ish or maybe 6pm.. it was cloudy and i could hear the thunder even in the afternoon.. it's been a rainy season lately.. could've been the ghost festival is coming soon.. that's what us, chinese believe.. stuck in a jam and was raining.. i just got out from the shower and feeling a lil hungry as i didn't finish my food earlier on with my friend..

I gotta go now and grab a bite.. then i'd head to bed.. so sleepy..

ps: don't take your relationship for granted.. try to spice up your love life and don't make it a routine.. if not, it'd be bad eventually..

my own 350z?

With ALL the excitement of getting the GTR back home after the major modding, makes me start to think about MY future ride :p~ to plan out what to do to make it a show car.. haha!

At first i couldn't believe it when my hubby said 'i'll get you the 350z'.. i was like 'OMIGOSH!!!! are you for real?'.. 'not the tamiya model set, you know?'.. 'it's the one i could drive in it?'.. ever since Nissan launched the 5th generation of the Z, i just fell immediately in love with it.. and i'm STILL in love with it after all these years.. it IS truly a beauty..


Don't you think so?







The Z is using 2 types of engines.. first when they launched it (2003 - 2006), it was using the 3.5L VQ35DE V6 engine which can produce 287hp and in 2007, they moderately revised it and the VQ35DE V6 was replaced with a new 3.5L VQ35HR V6 which can produce 306hp @ 6800rpm.. it comes with 5-speed auto and 6-speed manual.. Top Gear voted the Z as "Car of The Year" in 2004.. it was driven around the test track in a time of 1:31.8 putting it level to the BMW M3 and Mazda RX8..

The Z comes with 4 different type of specs.. the 350Z, enthusiast, touring and grand touring.. click here for the specifications on those 4 types which i just mentioned.. not long ago, Nissan just released the roadster version.. which i don't like coz it's soft top instead of a hard top..

Anyways, even though the Z seems like the perfect car BUT to a car freak like me and my hubby.. we think that there's room for improvement.. haha.. we've decided to add a bodykit (either a Nismo or a Veilside), get a carbon fibre hood, do some graphics, re-paint the whole car and of course, change the rims and tires..

As for me, i've always like the speed.. yea, although it has a 3.5L engine i still want it to be faster.. my hubby knows about that and he suggested that i should get used to the 'power' first before upgrading it coz right now i'm just driving around with a 1.6L engine car :p~ i'd want to turbo charged it or just super charged it.. hmmmm.. what do you think, bb? or maybe just changed the air filter and ECU.. hehe.. better air intake?

Besides being fast, the suspension and braking system are equally important as well.. most people say that the Z's suspension is good enough, so i thought of changing the coils only.. to the Tein super flex coilovers.. bring the car down for an inch maybe.. for the braking system, only the grand touring is fitted with a Brembo® braking system.. sigh.. it comes with a 4-piston caliper with 12.8" x 1.18" vented front discs and 2-piston caliper with 12.7" x 0.87" vented rear discs.. hopefully i could change to Brembo® brakes.. hehe..

As for the ICE (In Car Entertainment), i think with the Bose® system is enough for me.. for the interior, i think i'd just leave it stock standard.. haha.. hopefully my dream car would be more or less looking something this! :-


Not exactly the same.. duh~ i'd want a vector graphic like that! :)



So, for the time being i'd just wait patiently for the time to arrive when my hubby do actually get me the car.. can't wait to do it up and take it for competitions.. haha! oh oh, my hubby's GTR is still my fav car as he first picked me up for our first dinner in that 'monster' :)

~ Happy April Fools' Day ~

Today is indeed 1st of April.. no.. it's not a joke.. haha.. *lame* anyways, i'd like to wish EVERYBODY Happy April Fools' Day!! did you just get pranked? haha!

Have a good day! :)

movies anyone?

It's been erm.. not long ago i went to the cinema BUT it's been ages (at least that's how i feel) since i went to the cinema with my hubby.. i miss watching movie, feeding him cheezels, leaning against him, kissing him, hugging him and holding his hand in the cinema.. we usually would go for couple's seat.. hehe.. i can just put my legs on the seat and lean against my well-built hubby :)

Right, talking about movies.. am gonna watch 'Meet the Robinsons' at 4.45pm, Times Square with alice.. made a reservation 2 days ago.. so, i've to get ready soon! i think she'd be there to meet me after she's done doing her hair at the salon.. hmmm.. i wonder if she'd perm it or straighten it.. hehe.. probably will post a picture of her and will do a review for the movie when i come back home after dinner later :p

And bb, i LOVE you.. i'm the luckiest girl in the world :) *muacks*

ps: can't wait for you to come back and watch 'Spiderman 3', 'Transformers' and 'Shrek 3' together with you


Finally i'm back home!! together with alice.. the movie was awesome!! it's really funny and the storyline is good.. anyways, when i arrived at Times Square the queue to buy tickets were EXTREMELY long! luckily i have made a reservation earlier on like 2 days ago.. i went to the counter to get my tickets AND when i gave her my reservation number, it appeared that there's no data! so i gave her my phone number instead and VOILA! 2 tickets reserved *phew*

The movie was supposed to be 4.45pm but it only started at 5.15pm.. i gave alice the side seat.. a few mins later, a guy came with a full bag of food and he sat right next to me.. well, i thought he came to watch the movie alone.. gosh i was wrong! he came with another guy! haha.. yeap, the guy next to me is gay.. i got nothing against gay and i'm quite happy that a gay guy sat next to me.. at least i won't get molest or anything, right? :p~

Okay, i think i gotta go and eat now.. coz i just had 2 pieces of nuggets as my lunch.. i AM fungry (farking hungry) NOW *sigh*


I'd personally recommend this movie :) ratings? *thumbs up*









ps: ratatouille will be the next animation movie that i'd be looking forward to watch after Shrek 3.. hehe..

are ALL girls the same?

Define what a girl means to you.. are ALL girls the same? being :-

- emotional
- unpredictable
- naive
- attention seeker
- bossy
- biatch / slut
- throwing tantrums / upset / angry easily
- materialistic and etc..

I just hope i'd be somehow different from that.. but i guess somehow i'm the same as the rest of them *sigh*

ps: okay.. i think it's time to close the girls AND cars topic.. coz i think some girls would be REALLY pissed off at me :p~

requirements?

Since i've blogged about cars and girls, might as well i continue the topic.. hehe.. how many of you guys attended a motorshow? did you go there for the cars OR the girls? oh yea, i see a smirk on your face.. don't deny it that most guys would go there for the girls..

Jesz was right.. she told me that most of the girls in the motor industry know nuts about cars.. especially those car's models.. i mean, come on.. you're posing for a CAR! modelling is a very professional job.. take a look at the 'The America's Next Top Model' hosted by tyra banks.. i remember i watched an episode where the girls were in Japan and they had to make a TVC for some food brand.. they were being briefed and they had to actually taste the food! so that they'd know what's the product like..

So as a car's model, they have to at least arm with minimum or basic knowledge about cars.. not just your pretty face or body! but then NOT many girls are pretty tho! LOL.. yea i'm bad.. but it makes sense right? okay, let me remind you.. when you want to have your dream job, you'd study for it right? take up a course so that you'd learn what's it about.. and when you actually apply for that job, they have some requirements where you at least have to HAVE knowledge on what you're doing! so why can't when they take in car's models, they set those requirements? not just requirements to be at least 5 feet tall and above, fair complexion, thin/slim and etc.. those models have to know what they are posing!

Whenever i attended motorshows, i'd actually wait for those models to shoo off before i take the pictures.. i mean, i do not want them to spoil those 'real beauties' they're posing for! come on, with half the car in sight and the rest of it cover by those models, aren't a pretty picture! for me at least.. i do come across girls who are REALLY into cars.. girls who can drift as well.. i guess those girls are just not interested to pose/model..

Being a motorshow girl, it's just a glamorous job.. you get to take pictures with cars AND if they're lucky enough, probably they might get a date or two or even more! and also they get to appear in car mags.. guys would start drooling over them on BIG HUGE pin ups *sigh*

Anyways, i'd like to try to experiment this theory.. that motorshow girls know nuts about cars.. the next time when i attend a motorshow/car launching, i'd ask them about the cars they are posing/giving out flyers! and it'd be fun to see their reaction :) muahahahaha *evil laugh*

ps: ok, i gotta go to the mechanic shop now.. my hubby's car parts (pistons, conrods & oil pump) are here already! yay! ~toodles~

vector graphics?

What is vector graphics?
Vector graphics (also called geometric modeling or object-oriented graphics) is the use of geometrical primitives such as points, lines, curves, and polygons, which are all based upon mathematical equations to represent images in computer graphics. It is used by contrast to the term raster graphics, which is the representation of images as a collection of pixels.

Look what i found when i was browsing some vector graphics :-


It's your car, bb! :)

why aren't girls not interested in cars?

It's quite funny though.. could say mostly girls do not really like cars.. yea they do like to be seen IN a nice car or a sports car or even a super car, but they know nuts about cars! hmmmm... eg: a friend told me that his friend picked a girl up from a club and she thought the guy's car is a 'ferrari' just coz it was a RED car! lol..

Well, i'm a car freak myself but i'm not a pro when it comes to cars.. i too knew nuts about cars and i'm still learning.. from car mags and from my hubby OR even the mechanic i went to! haha.. just why aren't girls not interested in cars? is it becoz guys would go crazy over a car and you'd have lack of attention from them? oh no, i doubt that coz some guys would attend motorshow just to see the girls! *wink*

Like when i read an article about the 600bhp GT-R from UK on the banzai mag i bought, i found out that the owner (Chris Hayes) of this 'beauty' was dumped by his gf just coz he wanted to get it.. but before that he told her that he's going to own one AND his gf said "over my dead body!".. oh dear, that's a wrong thing to say.. at least to me..

I think no matter what your guy has passion for, as his partner you should try to support him.. am sure the guy would REALLY appreciate it.. try it and see it for yourself :)

jealousy, do you have it?

Am very sure that each and everyone of you do somehow are a green eyed monster.. you would be lying if you said you're not..

So, what is jealousy?
The word stems from the French jalousie, formed from jaloux. Jealousy typically refers to the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that occur when a person believes a valued relationship is being threatened by a rival. This rival may have no knowledge of threatening the relationship. Jealousy is a familiar experience in human relationships. It has been reported in every culture and in many forms where researchers have looked. The word "jealousy" is frequently used to describe what is more properly fixation on what someone else has.

I took the test and this is my result :-

Your Envy Quotient: 25%

You are an occasionally envious person, but jealousy doesn't usually get the better of you. You're wise enough to know that envy feels horrible - and does nothing to improve your life. A little jealousy is normal: so go ahead and let yourself feel it. But don't let it bum you out!

How Much Envy Do You Have?

cheap car mags?

Hmmm... do you think a RM9.90 for a car magazine is cheap?

Today when i went for lunch with my ex-colleagues, i dropped by a book store and bought a few car magazines.. 2 banzai mags and 1 autosalon.. the actual price for the banzai mag is ₤3.99 each and the autosalon is $8.99.. so er... i guess after the conversion, it's still cheap right? :p hehe..

Anyways, 3 of the magazines have something in common.. hehe.. all 3 of it has an article of a GTR! (a Monster Blitz Drift Skyline, a 600bhp GTR and a Bee Racing track R33 GTR) :) and there's a list of the top 10 greatest engines on the autosalon mag! i can't wait to read it..

Here's the mags that i bought :-


Bb, when you come back you can read it too :)

hate it or love it?

I found this skin last night and i modified it a lil to suit my own taste.. had to copy some html from my old template to the new one.. making sure all the font fits.. and also i had to find a way to enable the comments.. it took me a couple of hours.. and i finally slept at 5am.. yea, this morning.. i hope you'd like my new blog skin as much as i do! :)

ps: if you think the green is too bright for your eyes, adjust your monitor brightness then.. hahaha.. just jk.. will debug it when i have the time.. it's either you hate it or you love it.. so i need as many feedback as possible.. thanks but at the meantime, enjoy!~

do you have that look?

The Look of Love - Diana Krall

The look of love is in your eyes
A look your smile can't disguise
The look of love is saying so much more than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard, well it takes my breath away

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you, now that I have found you

You've got the
Look of love, it's on your face
A look that time can't erase
Be mine tonight, let this be just the start of so many nights like this
Let's take a lover's vow and then seal it with a kiss

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you, now that I have found you
Don't ever go
Don't ever go


My hubby definately has the look of love.. fell instantly in love with him when i first met him in person :) there's just something about him and he's drop DEAD gorgeous

is it malaysians or...?

*phew!*

I just got back home from dinner at a typical chinese restaurant.. it's my grandma's birthday today.. she was born in 24th March 1930.. yeap.. 1930.. which makes her 77 years old.. i know she secretly hope that she'd be able to see her great grandchild before she leaves the world but i guess she has to wait for 2 more years :)

Anyways, as we entered the restaurant i was almost DEAF! why? coz of the people there.. OMG, the noise they made could really make me dizzy and pass out.. it's worse than the wet market.. it's more like a stadium full with people.. people were talking non-stop even if their mouth was stuffed with food.. darn.. people are trying to outdo one and another coz when they tried to talk to another person, that someone couldn't hear them! thus it worsen the whole situation! i tried to ignore the noise but i felt like there's a point when i couldn't take it anymore and end up running out from the restaurant yelling.. haha.. it was THAT bad.. can really turn someone perfectly sane into INsane! and we had to wait for our food for almost half an hour.. bb, i think you can't go there coz when you're hungry, you'd be impatient and loose 'it'.. hehe.. right? :p~

So, is this situation only happens in Malaysia, Asian countries OR just anywhere in this world? can anyone please enlighten me?

home?

Bb, i think this song suits you alot..

Home - Michael Buble

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm

Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
“I’m fine baby, how are you?”
Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another aeroplane
Another sunny place
I’m lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I’ve got to go home

Let me go home
I’m just too far from where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel just like I’m living someone else’s life
It’s like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
'Cause this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day has come
And gone away
In even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home

And I’m surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I’ve had my run
Baby, I’m done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It will all be all right
I’ll be home tonight
I’m coming back home

try outs?

For almost 2 weeks since my hubby went offshore, i've been staying at home or just went out to eat with my friends.. but today i went out with my high school friend, alice.. since it's her off today coz she's been working alot lately throughout the weekends..

Anyways, i was supposed to pick alice up at about 12.15pm but when i went to start my car, i couldn't! wth.. so i called my friend, han who owns a car accessories just nearby my place to come over.. i knew it that my car batt died.. han came over and got me a new batt.. it costed me RM180.. he said that i do not have to fill batt water for this batt.. oh right.. wohooo!

So after managed to start my car, i went to pump my car petrol.. i went to the Esso nearby my place and after paying, the car petrol attendant took the petrol cap out and helped me to pump petrol.. i was like 'er, i can do that myself' but then i let him do his job.. he then chatted me up.. asked me where i'm going, have i eaten yet, am i working or still studying and then asked me if i'm married *sigh* he was trying to pick me up! no? hmmmmm...

I left after my car petrol tank is full.. went to pick up alice and went to hartamas as i made lunch date with my ex colleagues.. it's been like almost 6 months that i haven't met them.. nurul was like 'i thought since you're married and all, i'd expect you to gain weight'.. i was like 'no way'.. hahaha..

About 2pm, i drove to 1U with alice.. we went to book a movie and we watched Mr Bean's Holiday..


Mr. Bean travels to the South of France on holiday, causing the usual mayhem and ending with an unscheduled screening of his video diary at the Cannes Film Festival.







After the movie, we went shopping! as usual, i took some pictures of me trying out on clothes.. this time i took it while we were in Forever 21


I bought this top for RM89.. what do you think? worth it?







Actually this piece is bare back.. totally bare at the back.. you won't be able to see it coz my hand is blocking 'the' view.. haha..









And oh, did i mention that it's not a 2 piece? it's 1 piece.. should i get it? hmmmmm...









ps: sorry for the crappy pictures.. bb, can i get a phone with better camera? hehe...

~ Condolences ~

Dear Alvern @ Zewt,

Words could not express how sorry i am to hear of your mum's passing. I know that it is hard to let go of those we love and spend so much of our lives with. I'm sorry. My heart aches for you and your family. Please accept my deepest condolences and may you find peace with time.

all over again?

Is it possible to fall in love All Over Again?

All Over Again - Ronan Keating ft Kate Rusby

(Ronan Keating)
Turn down the light,
Turn up the radio,
There’s a fire in your eyes, and its keeping me warm
Hold on to me like it was yesterday,
When we both felt our spirits collide

(Kate Rusby)
I remember the moment, being struck down by lightning
Since the first time I saw your face, and you smiled
Come and lay down with me
Fill the space that’s between us
Feel the magic that keeps love alive

This time, can be like the first time
Close your eyes and soon you’ll be there
No man could ever guess what you’re feeling
Turn a spark to a flame,
Make a wish, close your eyes, won’t you start all over again.

(Ronan Keating)
Just like the first time that you touched my skin,
All over again
I tasted heaven take me there again,
All over again

Your smile
Your touch,
Your taste,
It turns me on and on and on,
That I fall in love with you,
All over again

(Kate Rusby)
Come and step through the stars,
Take a ride though the universe.
As long as we’re here, lets take this whole thing in

(Ronan Keating)
What I’m trying to say,
Is that you are so beautiful
Let me say it, all over again.

Coz this time can be like the first time,
Close your eyes, but you’ll soon will be there
No man could ever guess what you're feeling,
Turn a spark to a flame,
Make a wish, close your eyes, won’t you start all over again.

Just like the first time you touched my skin,
All over again
I tasted heaven take me there again,
All over again

Your smile,
Your touch,
Your taste,
It turns me on and on and on.
That I fall in love with you,
I keep falling in love, with you.
All over again

All over again
All over again.

ps: i keep on falling in love with you, bb.. all over again.. each time whenever i look into your eyes or hear your voice

what is commitment?

What does commitment means to you? okay okay, i know there are many type of commitments in life BUT what i'd like to talk about is commitment to your spouse..

To tell you honestly, i've never had any serious commitment with anyone i dated.. i have work commitment, family commitment but not a spouse commitment.. the most i've done in a relationship was to meet the parents.. that's all.. ok ok, maybe that's NOT a big deal but it is to me.. and also, hmmmm... opening a joint account? that's a commitment too..

I've to say that i'm still new in this whole commitment thingy.. i felt uneasy or weird when my hubby gives me his atm card and leaves his cheque book with me when he's away working OR when he brought me to meet his family members.. okay, let's not say 'uneasy' n 'weird'.. i'm just not used to it and in a short time, i do not know how to react to it.. i never had anyone giving me money to spend nor having anyone to stay/live with me.. to be fully committed to me!

As i was cleaning up my room today, i've came across many of the stuff my hubby left here with me.. ALMOST everything.. his insurance, his house S&P (Sales & Purchase), his car registration card, his bank statements, his house loan, his cheque book and most importantly a couple of his authorization letters.. it really struck me that my hubby REALLY trust me alot and he's committing his whole life to me.. i never had a guy doing that to me before..

But sadly, i do not have those things to offer to my hubby.. all i can do to show him my commitment is that i'm married to him.. i'm there to take care of his needs, to be there when he's down, to give him the perfect family of our own, to stay loyal to him, never give up on him, be understanding and etc..

Seeing the ring which is on my finger now, i know that i've already committed to this man whom i've married.. so for better or worse, health or sickness, rich or poor, i'd ALWAYS by his side.. i've devoted my time, my love, my effort, my emotion to my hubby..

Bb, i just want to say that i'm totally committed to you and i'd NEVER EVER leave you.. i give you my promise.. i LOVE you :)
