officially broke -_-

as some of you all know already, i langgar kereta again -_- haihhhhh. why la always like this, macam annual ritual. it was a stupid accident, even more stupid than my previous two accidents, which were already very stupid to begin with.

damn bei.

anyway it happened on thursday morning as i was on my way to uni. was very minor, no one was hurt in any way -_-

so after class on that day i dropped by this workshop near my uni, to get a rough idea of the damage, as well as time and cost required for repair. this lady, presumably the workshop boss punya wife, came over as i stepped out of my car. i explained what i was there for, and popped the bonnet open for her to inspect. so here's a snippet of the conversation, originally in a mixture of cantonese and mandarin:

lady: hmm slight impact, some of the stuff pushed in slightly, bla bla bla

me: *listens*

lady: see here, pushed out of place by impact bla bla bla... EH your car langgar before many times hor!

me: er... ya, it's an old car, see...

lady: wah ya lor you see, aiyo hit before so many times...

me: yes it's erm, a second-hand car... perhaps the previous owner...

lady: aiyo must be langgar quite serious before! see, the last time they had to take out everything and then put them back!

me: *feebly* well erm...

lady: *surveying* tsk tsk, hit so many times...

me: *gives up trying to defend myself*


for some reason, my face took on a verY sheepish expression as she tsk-ed and aiyo-ed over my car.

anyway, everything's been settled, lesson learnt (hopefully!!), wallet emptied (can't say i didn't deserve it). and i should get back on my thesis - supervisor's expecting the first few chapters bright and early this coming tuesday. yes, roughly about 30 pages, of which i have done a grand total of... 1 and a half page. i am AWESOME!

and not like i actually have sufficient information currently to whack out the 30 pages... did i say i am awesome? yes! i am. totally awesome.


so DON'T PANIC. in said large, friendly letters.

2 tortoises in a row!:

u hit your car again? -_______- nvm.. hope dad didn't marah you. or he prolly gave up lol.

don't worry, if you just keep at it the 30 pages will churn out.. but better concentrate on the material first since it seems you don't have enough yet. jia you!

some ppl work better under stress~!

felicia: haha no i still kena marah -_- not so much because of the accident, for another related reason la. and until today 30 pages not churned out yet. the information gathering takes up so much time T_T churning out words no problem but need material T__T
