Me vs Cat

Posted by vampire at 09:32 AM on September 12, 2005.

Yesterday, on my way home from dinner/supper, I was driving at about 60km/h on the Pantai Hospital road, when I spotted a cat on the walking on the roadside. There were no cars behind mine, but there was another car just beside mine on the right.

Then, whilst looking at me/my car, it suddenly sprinted across the road. Stupid cat. I know my car isn't able to brake in time, since it's so near, so I accelerated instead. Somewhere in my thoughts, I was quickly assessing the rough probabilty it would be run over.

The length of a cat is about twice the breadth of my car tyre. I have four tyres. From that distance, it couldnt be run over by my left tyres, so the probability might be low.

But as I drove, there was a crunching sound from beneath my right front tyre. Seems that the cat is nearer than I thought. Too bad then, stupid cat. U lose!

Anyway, I am quite sure that if I hadn't run over it, the car on my right would have. This is the first time I ran over a cat/dog/animal.

Bad Memory

Posted by vampire at 03:05 PM on September 22, 2005.

In primary school, I used to go for a tuition...

The class comprises of students of various ages.

I remembered there were siblings - 2 brothers, 1 sister - who attended the same class as I do.

I lost my pencil one day. I still remembered how it looked like. It was a purple 'mechanical pencil' (that's what we called it last time, don't know what it is called now). On top of the pencil, where a small eraser is supposed to be, lies a purple whistle. Yes, the one which u blow into, and will create sound waves.

Guess wat? I saw the gal using that pencil for her work! Dammit! (of cos, I didnt know this word back then)

I reported the theft to my tuition teacher. I remembered the lines along "Teacher, I think she stole my pencil." Then she gathered a few of us around - me, the accused, and her siblings. In the end, she got away with it. Her brothers said their parents bought it for her. Argh.

Fast forward a few hours/a day(s), I found my pencil lying in between the pages of my English workbook. Yes, I remembered it that well. I had the courage to announce it to everyone. Such an embarassing moment, which I will remember almost forever!

Now, I lost/misplaced my Pilot G3 pen. Dammit!

Nightmare

Posted by vampire at 01:29 PM on September 23, 2005.

Was trying to find a place to park my car to get to join the rest to play badminton. Couldn't find any.

Finally, when one of my friends came out to help, I found a spot to park my car.

Then came this policewoman. She immediately handed me a summons for Rm20. Offence: Something to do with driving the previous day. I told her I didnt drive the previous day. I passed back the piece of paper to her. She scribbled something on it, and pass it back to me. Another Rm40 added to the fine, something to do with talking back. Rm20 for some aircon problem, Rm20 for some car clinic thingy. Argh...

She then asked me again, "Wanna deny more?"

Feel like punching her... Then I woke up...

Dream again

Posted by vampire at 07:18 PM on September 26, 2005.

Few nights ago, I had this dream whereby, I was with PYeong...

I think I was in the car. I'm driving. It was at night. We were going to get food around Jln Dato Keramat.

When we reached there, found out the place is being renovated or sth. Then the road narrowed. My car suddenly became a motorbike or a bicycle.

Then at the end of the road, there was a pasar malam. Yes, there were food there, but they were all about to close stalls. Anyway, we were hungry and decide to eat anything left.

I could only remember one stall selling waffles. A Malay lady was selling it. The waffles were special. They had Char Siew toppings, or Ham, or Sio Bak on top. Yummy...

Then the lady said you can mix them up, and they had special names. I remembered her saying the one with all ingredients/toppings is called "Fauziah Lapis".

Return of the Pen

My 'lost' pen is back in the stationery cup on my office desk.

I do not know who put it back.
