It's been almost a week now that I'm here in Vanderbilt after a not-so-long home trip. Unfortunately today, our car broke down, again.. Haha. Apparently the air-conditioner was left on while the engine is ignited, which probably the main reason the alternator broke. Insufficient lub is another supporting factor. I think.... It's alright, I'm glad that we managed to pull back into the parking space, (50% of the car) before it actually broke down. Somehow my language sucks this week, probably I haven't been speaking English for quite a while during the summer. But, we'll fix that soon. Kih3
Now that I've manage to completely settle in my new room, I get to hang out with the rest of the gang today. Well, I still miss the previous Japanese Hall members, probably because I'm the only one left now. We have a set of new Japanese members now, making me a senpai. Hihi, a senpai with poor Japanese skills(日本語は上手じゃないです). We need to fix this one too, Syaf.. Hihi.. It's not 4.16am in the morning and I'm waiting my dad to get off work... Come home quickly pa, I've got stories to tell. :p

Spare time for some thoughts
It's been almost a month and a half now ever since I first arrived home from Vanderbilt. I was fishing this morning, when my mom called and asked if I would like to drop by at her workplace. They have a bit of a mini-convoy exhibition of big bikes over there. Of course, I can't resist such temptation. :p
So, there is one FZ1 that I laid my eyes on. It's sexy, and it's nasty. It's a little monster that according to the owner, could be tamed in a short amount of time. So, we had a little chit chat over the bike, he seemed a little surprised that I know Fazer quite well, at least that's what he said to me. Haha. So, that guy spent well 70,000 on that ride. Inside, I thought he must have a pretty darn well-paid job to be able to afford that thing as soon as I learned that it had been purchased here in Malaysia.
How I wished I could afford one of this. But something came out to my mind, I knew countless people who managed to secure PhD credentials, but most of them, live solely on constant paychecks, and everyday save a bit of money to spend on something nice every once in a while. There is nothing wrong to this regulation, but I think such method limits your potential in life. There are many opportunities that are waiting to be discovered out there, and they lie all over the world. If combined, there will be enough supply of things for everybody and there will be unlimited funds of cash waiting for you everyday. Owh, and I just love how uncertainties lead my life.
Another random subject of the day
Honestly, I don't care about the locals, whether you chinese, indian or malays as Malaysia should rise as 1 nationality. In order to reach exponential improvement, changes should be made, and a nation must fall to rise. The citizens must be freed from the subsidy-mentality. Some should fall so that others could rise, and the process is ongoing. Bottomline, there should be no uneven excuses. Period.
