The day i worked late

It was midweek and the entire day was focused on working on this Phantom. It was schduled for oil servicing and needed to replaced some valve cover gasket. Best part was it was to be done by the next day. The car also needed a reporgramming and update on its computer software.. which takes hours....



The latest I had worked so far was till around 10pm. It's was already 9 plus and the programming had only just start not long ago. Blarghhh....



You know, it's a wonder that this car hoist is able to lift that Phantom. It had stated that it takes a maximum load of 3000kg, but that car weighs about 3200kg.... hmm.



Programming in process.



Just some so-called abstract view from the computer station.



Of course it wasn't just me and Derrick working that night. CJ was installing the JCW kit on a Cooper... in record time of one day. That is provided that he works OT. Another guy stayed on... just to join us in doing OT. He had his fair share of work to be done.

Funny how we're gonna write for the OT claim form.

I did OT last night...

... till 11.30PM!!! wanted to do some photo blog entry but... really man cannot tahan now. Tomorrow tomorrow... zzzzzzzz *SNNOREEEEE*

iLazy

So lazy... that ima gonna cut everythin short. have fun reading :D

weekend me sick, first sneezed like mad sat night, couldn't sleep till next morning. watched Who's Line at around 4am felt better after laughing ass off. finally zzz at 6am, woke up at 9, felt worse. no mood to go out, talk or whatever, sat in was bz filling up me phone with junk ware. Me have a thing for.... nvm save this part for another time...

*interrupted by bro... walks past my room and ask me whether the weather is warm today. He was referring to the fan which was on in my room. OK.. so i answered, "Ya it's warm." Guess what he said? "Then why are you wearing a shirt? you think about ah... electricity is not free ok..." (goes back to his room)

Now i don't feel like continuing. Fuck that asswipe. Talks to me in all sorts of sarcastic remarks he could think of. Pissed... i'm fuming inside alright. Sheesh...

More pics :D

Haha yeah... today another entire day devoted to working on a Rolls Royce... not one but 2. In the morning was replacing some suspension compoments from the first Rolls Royce Phantom that was registered in Singapore... Royal Blue in colour. Then there was a last minute call up to do some pre-delievery check for a out-going car at Sungei Kadut showroom, oooh I tell ya if ya seen the behind of a typical RR Phantom, take a look at this >:D


This particular model has the total entertainment package. Individual seats, total adjustable, just like the ones in front. beneath that centre console lies the control wheel to switch whatever channel you wanna watch, whatever station you wanna hear, whatever scenes you wanna see on the DVD... oh yeah, surround sound all over... INSIDE.


Yep... a LCD screen for each passenger. Front passenger and driver don't get to see anything! Awww.


Also hidden beneath that sleek looking console, cup holders on the bottom, remote pad for easy tv/radio function with little compartment to hide your phone in... and as you can see, wine and liquor glasses and a cold box for the drinks as well.


So much... CLASSSS. LOL.

pics pics pics pics...

Today i feel like posting up some pics, just a few. So ya... here they are :D


Was at my brother's new house at Clementi today. A 4-roomm unit, sightly smaller than his current one but prime location. School and market nearby... no surprise he still have to top up even after selling his Jurong flat. So far the basic renovation's done.

This is supposedly to be the master bedroom, with the toilet inside... but instead one of the kids will stay here. Cos it's connected to the next room, which is...


... here! It's much more brighter here with full windows. The block has recently went through an upgrade so thus the addition space and the connecting door.


A view of the living room. Nothing much.


This is their kitchen. Pretty neat, going with the white theme.


View from kitchen sink.

Wide view from the living room if you stick your head out.


After that was at IMM for groceries and OMG, a chocolate fountain! *drool*


A sad nerdy kid comfortably trapped in a trolley full of stuff.


The night before was at Borders reading stuff, came across an article on the concept Rolls Royce 2-door sedan. New unveil, but still no news on production.


Obviously shorter, but wow still huge.


They said that this car will be more for the owner himself to drive than Mr Ahmad chauffeuring him around. It's 2-door duh. Seriously, tooting huge interior for a 2-door.


Finally, another lovely evening view from my house.

Rawr rawr rain!

What's done is done. No point fretting over it as it will lead you to nowhere. Realize what you have done, make a note to yourself and put it behind you. Just move on. You'll never know what will happen next.

Glad to know there are people who think the same way. :) Anyway, it's the seems to be like the raining season these days. For the past few evenings, it has been pouring at around the same time, either a passing shower or a short downpour. Nice and cool. This afternoon I was struggling to keep myself awake after lunch, almost literally swaying myself to and fro while standing... there wasn't much cars to do today, but for me... my work is never done with mopping wet oily puddles, clearing of replaced parts and being called to do the complicated task of plugging the battery booster pack to the accident car for less than a minute while I was in the midst of an assigned work. Did I mentioned that in a month's time, I am to be assessed on Mini repair work? It sounded like they want me to be, from total newbie to near-qualified technician status in record time. This is a challenge.... (scratches head)

Was just browsing through some auction sites and I was thinking to myself, since there is so much junk in my room, there's got to be some $$ worth in them :D Maybe this weekend I'll ransack... or rather rummage through my room to find anything that can bring in some extra $$$. For starters, amplifier speakers anyone? Made in UK ya know. :D

Another pic to end the day... ooooh this one's cool. I got this radical little program for my nokia 6600... yeah I bought a 2nd hand, just liked the design, and this one makes 360 degrees panorama view around! Not of highest quality of course.. but check it out!

Hahahaha... weeeee~

Enlightenment

This morning I woke up with mixed feelings. Apparently left-over blues from yesterday. I truly have a thing for making the already bad, go worse. It wasn't until much much later, that ahhh... I know why. Anyway, I couldn't believe that she blatantly said she is 10 years my senior. I find that quite mean and it was really a shock. Caught me there real good. The ball was in her court and I was desperately trying to find a solution/exit/whatever.





What the fuck was I doing. (Takes a rifle out and points barrel at self) Someone please shoot me? The trigger's too far and I can't reach it.... (stretches arm)




It seems that there are many things I have yet to know about women. Many many more, as I had learnt from my Sis Stef who I went to meet her after my class. She was intending to study for exams at H.V. So just nice, went to pick her. Yeah... I can't really totally blame myself, but yet I'm sure she has her reasons too. I guess I made one mistake way way too far... Hmm.

Not feeling much of any better after catching up with Stef who we haven't seen each other for months, I called up a random net friend Junee and wow... I see it more clearly now. Mmm... I should move on, but sigh she'll still be in my mind for a while. Haven't seen her in a week and this happens... How I wish I could tell her that I miss her and her cat... Oops.

Apart from this, went to settle some standing issues with someone. If you're reading this, yes I left your beloved phone at your office reception. It's now back safely in your hands, waiting to be traded off again. I could've told your brother that I know where you stay and what bike he rides when he threaten me, but I'm not that of a horrible person by nature. Sad to say goodbye, I wish you the best in everything you do. Take care. :)

Tomorrow is back to the workshop. Derrick my RR boss was away on holiday in Germany for the past week and so other supervisor took over. It seem that he took the responsibility a little too seriously. Even the other senior mechanic agreed with my point. Instead of learning what I'm supposed to be learning which is anything about cars, I was made to do domestic chores. Sweep, mop, arrange stuff, change the pail of water for him while he's applying decals to the car... gosh you name it. Thank goodness Derrick's returning in 2 days time to relief him of his 'stressed-out temp position'. And next week onwards no classes for the next 3 weeks. Should I not tell the boss? Hmm not worth the risk...

And finally, news about the Caddy... good news that is! But first one piece of bad news, my brother had recently got a new job and that would require him to drive to work... looks like he's taking over now. :( On the other hand, since he's bringing back the car to daily driven status, he'll need to get the car back to shape... and that means repairs... and that means he's willing to pay to get the power windows and speedometer working again! And new clutch and brakes too :D Phew.. just when I was about to spend a bomb to slowly start the repair campaign on the Caddy myself. :P

Dunno why but i just felt like it, here's a pic of a ride I created in the old old game Street Legal Redline Racing. Just one of many lol


I know there's something wrong with the upper part of the pic... gah I'm lazy ok.

What's with me???

In the morning I was at class, happily chatting on MSN and then... I said something real stupid. My emotions had taken the better of me at that moment when i said it. She was cheesed, pissed and obviously apparently, very upset.

Yes, it has happened again. Shot myself in the foot.... this time probably with a bigger gun with the trigger painted bright red and a sign saying, "DON'T PULL".

Why am I like this?! i ask myself. I certainly don't enjoy it, especially the results of it. I never meant to cause so much upset, I don't get a kick out of hurting other peoples' feelings intentionally. But why do i do it? The real answer lies within and, this the great part, I don't even know it myself. Ignorance built inside? An invisible growing sense of selfishness growing within me? Oh gosh.. if only someone or something or whatever can just tell me what the **** is wrong with me. I thought i could just brush this aside, tell myself it's just a setback, a slip of tongue or perhaps mind, don't ever repeat it again.... but no. This is much much much more serious than anything. I feel that i can't really face people anymore just being myself.... if i were to be myself, this is what happens.

Right after the bomb that i dropped onto myself, i was quite dazed. one of my classmates had asked me something and i was like simply... answering in short. The weight of this matter was so heavy that... i just couldn't describe. I had lunch at school... but once i was done eating, I left. I simply can't concentrate on anything else other than the sh*t that came out of me. I thought i had to do something, and i did.... i couldn't let it go just like that and do nothing. That guilty conscious was too strong...

Now I'm at home, wondering was it a good idea to do that in the first place. She replied, still pissed i can sense.

Sigh.
