Talking about road of a thousand deathwishes.
Saturday, i went out with Tuan (a.k.a. silversnow/eat/showtime) and Richard (a.k.a. richard/nomes) to Pyramid. Since Tuan had gotten his Satria not too long from his brother, we decided to take it out for a spin.
Tuan, who has not been driving for the whole of last year and got himself into accidents with walls and drains when he did (try to park in totally vacant car park... imagine that.), kindly offered the opportunity to Richard.
The last Richard came with a diesel-eating manual Hilux.
Now he comes with a modified-for-racing manual Satria.
Suddenly, the Hilux idea didn't seem as bad after all...
Tuan. Empty car park also scratch his own car.
Richard. Driver in question.
Now... Pyramid has a parking system where you spiral up the floors first, then only to come down floor by floor to get parking lots.
traffic jammed at the spiraling slopes + manual car + modified exhaust = NOT FUN
R: "traffic jam here..?" (balances car)
(car grunts: VROOOOMMMMMMMMM...)
(silence)
Me: "eh, i think we're dropping down."
R: "Nevermind, we got handbrake."

Ho ho ho... but anyways, we managed to park safely and in time to catch Happy Feet. It's quite a waste of time and the storyline sucks. All it did was to bring lip-synching to a new level. Okie la, the CGI weren't bad and the story had some truth to it, eg the penguin's survival. Imho, if you haven't watched in, don't bother. Might as well spend the money to watch Cicakman. Lagi Shiok.
Cicakman!
And guess what's next local blockbuster? The Roti-canai Strikes Back.
"Where is my roti CANAI?"

The Manchester United - Chelsea match ended with a 1-1 draw. Kinda disappointing thou, ManU dominated for the whole of first half before Chelsea actually "woke up" and many chances in front of the goalpost was wasted. 6 points lead mah. Amusingly, my championship manager played the same match this afternoon, ended up with a 1-1 draw too. Hehe.. so ngam eh?
cheers~
