Driving (recklessly?)

I drove my mum back from the petrol station today and I guess being on the highway got to my head. I went faster than usual (although it was just a short distance really) and just before the turning up the hill leading to my house, I didn't brake fast enough. I turned the wheel and they went screeeeeeeeeeechhhhh!!!!!!! I kinda gave my mom a shock and yeah, I was pretty stunned myself... Well, you can guess the avalanche of words that followed right after my mom got over the initial shock. hee. Nope, I didn't crash or anything but the feeling of the car almost skidding is scary enough. Now I'm starting to wonder whether I should really let anyone into my car. hee hee. *grins* To add on to that, I was driving without a license. hehe. I haven't hot mine yet from my instructor although I'm fully 'qualified' to drive on the road. All I need is an accident plus a few policemen and I'm dead. Meat. I seriously thank God that we both were safe and yeah, I don't know what would happen if yeah...
 
 
 
Phew.
 
 
 
Glad that was over.
 
 
 
Now to wait patiently for my little pink card to come....
 
 
hee *grins*
 
 
 
p/s Anyone wants a ride?

Cheap Thrills

Pure exhiliration....
 
 
I just passed my driving test despite the pounding heartbeat and sweat rolling down one's forehead. Whooppee!!! All you drivers on the road!!! You better watch out! You better not cry! You better watch out cos I'm telling you why....Peklyn has the license to ddrrrrrrrrriiiiiiivvvvvvvvveeeeeeeee!!!!!!! hahaha. *grins*
 
Along with the happiness came the mundane-ness of sitting around doing nothing. I brought a book and the ipod along in case I got bored but I finshed the book with lots more time to wait. Sigh. Just sitting around there in the heat gave me a headache and yeah...I'm suffering from the side effects of getting the license to freedom in the Malaysian transportation system. Yay. There was one poor girl who failed her test though. She got into the car and tried to move but to not much avail. After dying a few times, she managed to get the car to inch up the hill and subsequently rolled down again. hehe. (I am sooo bad but I can't help it because it looked quite funny) She really tried and I think she didn't release the clutch because we could all hear the engine roaring and yet the car doesn't even move! hahaha... Then there was this Malay girl (I think) who, at the top of the hill...when about to go down, the car screeched and there was sand/smoke? flying at the wheels. hahahhaha...Like going car racing only. hee *grins*
 
Other than a very flat buttocks, I survived the entire thing which lasted 8 hours of which I only drove for about ten minutes. hehe. Right now, all I need is sleep for I got up at 6 something to start my day waiting for my instructor to come and fetch me.
 
 
 
Goodnight everyone. *hugs*

It's a rich man's world

Yesterday when I was in the taxi coming home with my mom, the taxi driver was telling us about the agressiveness of drivers on the road. Needless to say, my mom instantly engaged in a very long conversation with him while I busied myself with familiarising myself with the roads. Anyway, there was one thing he said that caught my attention. He was telling us how "mafan" it is to go to the police station to make a report when there's an accident. To quote him, "settle yourself easier....go police got a lot of things to do wan... must take photo la....blah blah blah" And to take the photo, you would have to pay the policeman before he takes it! As in, you would have to BRIBE him or else he'll just busy himself with other unnecessary stuff to do. What is the world coming to man? What happened to the pillar of justice? What happened to the good ol' values people used to have? Sigh *shakes head*
 
I got a call from a modelling agency in Singapore yesterday too. The person was doing some sort of a survey and informing me of an upcoming audition in Kuala Lumpur. While I was trying to figure out where in the freaking world did she get my msian number (I mean, she's from Singapore la!!! I DO NOT give away my MALAYSIAN number to people in SINGAPORE!) she asked me a question which made me raise my eyebrows.
 
Woman: Do you have a boyfriend?
 
Me: No
 
Woman: If you did, what is the furthest you would go with him??
 
Me: (What the....???) Erm....talk? hee *grins sheepishly*
 
Woman: I mean, you'll be around many cute guys if you worked with us. Who doesn't like cute guys right? Well, if we trained you, would you be able to? (I can't really remember what she said but the meaning was something like that la...I guess you can figure it out by yourself..hee)
 
Me:*gasps in disbelief* NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! I have my values! I'm a christian!!!!
 
Woman: (Calmly) OKay, do you have any friends that might be interested?
 
Me: (Any friends who want to do it to make a quick buck? NO WAY!) Erm...I don't think so...
 
Woman: Thank you
 
*hangs up phone*
 
This is crazy man. The woman told me I would earn a few thousands each job. I never knew the job included sex! It's a freaking MODELLING agency! Not a brothel!!!! My gosh.. I was in utter shock after that phone call. I certainly wasn't expecting any surprises early in the morning. Furthermore the woman was yawning as she asked me questions in a lazy and don't-carish tone. Wah lau... This world is seriously cuckoo already. I certainly DO NOT want to offer my friends up to those people even if they paid me big time. Money isn't everything. There are lots of people in this world with tons of money and they still do not feel contented. In fact, they might have more problems than those who have less money.
 
*in a preachy tone* Seriously, people who go seeking for material wealth would never find themselves fully whole. It's only through God that we can fill up the emptiness within us. He is the one that can carry us through every hurdle in life and give us precious life lessons that would build is as stronger individuals. Materialism, hedonism and narcissism... the 3 core temptations. Sighs.
 
 
 
 
I do hope I don't fall into any of those 3 pits...
 
 
 
 
 
Hang in there B

Barleyyyy!!!!!!!!!

haha....
 
I just came back from Bali a few hours ago and my brother has just left for NS a.k.a. Ulu camp! haha. *grins* and *sobs* Kinda sad that he's leaving though cos I'll really miss him. Hmmm....3 months at home without him would certainly be quite....interesting? heh
 
*scratches head*
 
My head is super duper itchy. Maybe braids wasn't such a good idea after all. hehe. Its not only itchy but it makes it difficult to sleep too. Plus my braids keep falling in front of my face. *blehh* To add insult to it all, my braids make me look fat!!!!! Okay, fine, I have a round face but the braids accentuate the round-ness of it!!! Argh! I kinda regreted it after I saw my eintire look. It didn't look too bad at first but now....haihz.
 
Bali was fun fun fun and I shall not bother to elaborate and drown people in the near boring-ness of it all. haha. Actually it's not so boring but yeah....lazy to type la. Anyway, from now on it'll just be work work work since applis were done long before Bali...hehe. *grins* Oh forgot to mention that Bali is super hot too!!!!! Panas!!!!! hahahha. Sweat like pigs there la...Maybe should have collected the sweat and sold it. heh. Could have made a fortune with the amount I produced. hee hee.
 
One more thing...I got lotsa new stuff so yyyyyyyyyaaaaaAAAAAAAAYyyYAYYYyYyYyyyY!!!!!!!!! hahhhah *jumps for joy*
 
OKay...

Jealousy presented to you on a plate

My bro took his SPM results today and naturally, being the ever so kay-poh sister that I am, I followed him along with my parents and another friend. Anyway, to cut the long story short, he got straight A's. I was so happy for him!!! In all his life, he has never gotten straight A's. This time he worked his ass off and I can say that he deserved it. I almost cried with happiness for him. God answered my prayers for my brother and I can say that I'm truly grateful for what God has given him. So yeah, after the initial excitment, I felt a twinge of jealousy. You know, the unwanted kind...I mean, he's my brother right? I was short of an A for my SPM and had a lot of A2s on my cert. I was kinda sad but got over it eventually (Please la, SPM only, it's not a matter of life and death). However, I am human and can't help feeling a pang of sadness and almost fell into the pits of self pity. My feelings of disappointment for my A level results came sweeping over me and I'm just thankful my parents were there. This is the first time my brother has done better than me and yeah, it kinda hurts. I guess I just gotta get used to it cos he certainly has brains...(just that he doesn't use them often..hee hee) He's growing up and I want only the best for him.
 
BUT I STILL FEEL BAD!
 
*bleah* To digress a little, there were reporters at his school and they caught me taking my brother's picture. So they rushed over (after hearing him yell) and took a picture of me taking his picture. hahahah. I was happy! hhahaha...Tomorrow I'm going to buy every single newspaper there is to see if my picture entered the paper!!!!! Whee~ hahahaha...I am such a prat...hee hee
 
I feel like talking to someone now but the people I usually talk to either took their results today as well, are working at the moment, studying or just being the busy bees that they are. Sigh.
 
I don't feel good.
 
To add on to that, I have problems at my work that is bothering me.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I need a break.

Hmmm...

"I wanna be a stone...I wanna sink to the bottom of the ocean...."
 
lalala...How nice that would be ya? Now I'm bogged down with not only work but Uni applis too. Its so disgusting that I keep procrasinating. Currently I have two essays to write by next week. Sigh. How la am I going to write in this state? To add on to that, I'm having my driving lessons and by the time I come home, I don't feel like doing anything but sleep but then again, the weather is darn HOT!!!!!!! I can't freaking sleep la. *bleah* And so, I have undone work,  undone essays and an unsettled mind especially when I know I have things to be done. Sighs. Oh lemme just rave on about my 'funny' instructor....
 
*ahem* My instructor is a typical chinese. You know, one of those chee-na types. hehe. Therefore, his english vocab is super limited. hahha. His most frequently used phrase is "Release the oooooooooiiiiiiiiiillllllllllllll" and he drags on the 'oil'. hahaha. You should hear it from him to get the hilarious-ness of it. Seriously, its darn funny. *smirks* Everytime he says that, I feel like bursting into laughter. Obviously I don't la, or else he would think that he is teaching some psycho from Tanjung Rambutan or something. haha. The phrase comes most often on the highway. Come on la, its a freaking highway!!!!! People are zooming past me at 80 or more km/h and I'm at 60km/h at most?!!! *bleargh*Everytime I past 60km/h the famous phrase would appear. haha. Darn funny. Heard from Anna and my bro that he does it to them too. Oh boy do we get good laughs from people like these. Stuff to brighten up our unusually dull lives. hehe.
 
On another note, I realise that I'm very blessed because of the poeple aorund me. My family, my senoirs and my friends. They are so supportive and encouraging and yeah....all those mushy mushy stuff la. hehe. *grins* I mean, they've been really great throughout this time and I just wanna thank everyone who has given me advice or just been there for me. You guys ROck!!! *hugggggggsssssssss all round* hhahhaha.
 
Okayyyy...back to work...

Disappointments and confusion...

Yeah, quite obvious from the title that I'm quite disappointed with my results. They weren't grand or anything but neither were they horribly bad. The lowdown of it all is that I can't get a scholarship. Not with such results. Sigh. I actually thought that my results would give me some direction on what to do but somehow it has still left me in the lurch. I'm still stuck in this dilemma. I wish this was over.
