Days like these...

Makes a person wonder a lot.

Got into an accident the other day, well it was Tuesday. Since then I was so busy, that I didnt even have time to sent my poor Myvi for repairs. Thank goodness the damage is only the exterior, so i can still safely drive it around. Was so busy that sometimes I didn't have time to catch a breath. And what's even worse is that sometimes people around you just don't know how busy you've been and they think you are just plain lazy.

I finally have sometime to breathe today. I'll send my car for repairs tomorrow morning. And looks like I'll be without a car for a few weeks then.

Random thoughts that came to my mind when i was driving back today.

- Why did MACC investigate the misappropriation of funds (which is like thousands of ringgit only) among Selangor Exco members but did not investigate the Balkis Fund or even the case where a senior politician was quoted to have owned a house worth RM24 million when his salary wouldn't have allowed him to own such an extravagant property?

- During the Man Utd match, well both of them, I dont understand how some of the suppoerters can heckle Malaysian players everytime they made a mistake, then the next minute, when Malaysian team executes a good move, the very same people will chant and sings Malaysia praises. 1 minute is " Oi! Balik Kampung lah! Tukar pemain!!", the next moment, "Malaysia Boleh!!" WTF??!!? If you got nothing better to say then don't say it lah. Its already hard enough for them to play in front of such a huge crowd against a big team. The least they need is the home supporters turning against them.

- Sometimes when something happens to some1 or they need help, you show concern or help them or just stand by them because you are close to them. But when the something happens to you, do not automatically assume people will treat you the same way you treat them. If you do, then you are seriously going to disappoint yourself. And not only that, that may get you into trouble with your friends or family because you did not manage your own expectations. Not all people react or behave the same way as we do. Every1 has their own way of helping or showing concern (or the lack of it! esp. when u have inrealistic assumptions) towards others. If you don't like it, what can you do? Tell the person off ah? How many people here are actually appreciate or like it when you try to tell them what to do? Humans are defensive in nature, so just let it be.

- Thinking of what i really should do with my life at this point in time. It seems like i've been living it aimlessly once again. What should I do with my money? Buy property, shares or learn to invest in other things? Move out? My friends? Too many or too little? Or not enough quality friends? My job, am I happy where I am at the moment?

Sigh... just very tiring to think of so many things.



Boodyboy, out!!

P.S. Just FYI, after collecting my police report in Shah Alam, i decided to drive past th very same spot where i got into an accident that day. Wrong move. That place was very jammed. Then when i slowly jammed to the same traffic light, I noticed that an accident had occured there. It seemed that a car had ran over a motorcyclist at that very same traffic light. The car hit the road divider and was badly damaged. I could see blood all over the road. Not a pretty sight. Its just weird that the accident happened around the same time mine occured, at the same spot. Should I count myself lucky that mine was just a minor fender bender? On the positive side, yes.

Drive safely guys and girls!

First time I'm in the wrong

In an accident,that is.

Yes, finally i've been in an accident in which I'm at fault. At least in the eyes of the law.

Got into a fender bender today on the bridge after Batu Tiga toll off the Federal Highway. What happened? I was driving when the car in front of me braked suddenly at the traffic light. He didn't notice the lights had turned red and so did I. He braked, I braked. But the accident cannot be avoided. Was I speeding? I was going at less than 60kmph as i was moving from 1 traffic light to another. Was I too close to the car in front of me? I was about 3 cars length away from him when i braked. But thanks to the slippery road condition, I could see my self slowly sliding all the way to give the front guy a bump.

Car couldn't stop. Knocked into the back of another car. Whose fault? Mine. Simple as that.
Went to make a police report abou the accident. Drove to the nearest pondok polis to report but was told that only the bigger stations accept accident reports. Was told to go to the police station in USJ to make police report. We (the banger and the bang-ee) had to find our around USJ to find the police station. Then we were told that we could not report the accident there as that bridge where the accident occurred is not in their jurisdiction.

We were then told to go to the police station in Shah Alam to make the report. Sigh, it was more driving and finding our way. Managed to find our way and arrived at about 5.45pm. Luckily the servicde in this station was prompt as well as friendly. No doubt it was my fault, but this people made the ordeal much better after we were being led on a wild goose chase earlier.

Everything was settled. I was slapped with a summons (i'm already very broke...) and then both of us; banger and bang-ee; went our seperate ways back home. It was a long day indeed.

Looking on the bright side, i'm lucky i was onl involved in a minor accident. At the police station, i saw some pretty bad car wrecks whcih made me lose my appetite. I think those people were involved in that accident was definitely having a worse day than me.

Sigh, can't complain. But isn't that what I'm doing here? Whining and grumbling.
Thats all I can do. But at least I'm safe.

To all of you readers, have a safe trip where ever you may heading in bad weather,
