After a nice job done, I left the office at 3.00pm and proceed to Public Bank to renew my road tax. To my surprise, that god damn car insurer makes a mistake! Instead of giving me 12-months duration, he gave me 11-months. I end up unable to renew my road tax after wasting my precious 45 minutes.
Out of options, I was advised by the officer to extend my car insurance immediately and to return by tomorrow afternoon to collect my road tax. Feeling pissed, I left the bank and directed that stupid insurer to extend the duration accordingly.
It was 4.00pm that time, going back to office is not an option. I decided to head back to my home. I use the Seremban highway and en route to Besraya highway. I saw almost everyone walking out from their car and stand beside the big wide waterway. Out of curiosity, I wind down my window and look to the same direction. I saw some Bomba officers trying to take someone out of the drain. Oops, is he/she dead or trying to be a swimmer?
Feeling a bit silly, I decided to move on ahead. I noticed a civic 2.0s tailing me from behind. He is getting closer and closer to my civic 1.8s. Feeling a bit pissed, I stepped on the pedal and race with him. Hehehe … I guess every boys will do the same.
In front of me is a straight stretch, I stepped the pedal even more but I am losing the pace. The civic 2.0s went pass me like a speed demon; it makes me feel like my 1.8s were standing still.
In front of me is the super-sharp left hand turn follow by an immediate right-hand turn. I took the far right hand lane while the civic 2.0s took the middle lane. I know that is my only chance I have to win back the lost distance, I accelerate till 102kmh and release the gas pedal without hitting on the brakes and make an immediate left-hand turn. I can hear the squeaking sound of my tire and began to make another immediate right-hand turn with some breaking. I finally passed that demon 2.0s.
Feel with joy, I slow down my car waiting for the 2.0s to go pass me. I smile at him with a V shape on my finger! Hohoho … my ani lives up to its name, the Car of The Year for 2006/2007 with 5 stars in JNCAP.

kyuujin (job offer) ...
Yesterday was a bad start. I am sick, my body is aching and I sort of sprain my neck. I don’t feel like going to work but the amount of outstanding jobs are piling up and it need to be done by this week. My clients are waiting for me to send them quality candidates. With the remaining sense of responsibility in me, I decided to wake up and start working.
In office, I hardly move, it’s like I am out of battery. I need a recharge ASAP. So I have decided to invest all my time just to call all the shortlisted candidates for a phone interview. To my surprise, I managed to shortlist 20 less fortunate candidates (they are so pitiful, earning less than a thousand every month, some even earn $600 a month). I realized how fortunate I am, to be able to live a good life.
And so, I have decided to give them a chance to work for my client, a mega-size corporation as a Data Entry Clerk. Although it is not a good position to begin with, at least it offers better remuneration package. Guess this is how I contribute back to the society by helping the poor and needy!
Those who’re seeing this, please pray for them. May the god bless them with happiness.

kaze no machi e (to the city of wind) ...
Kaze no Machi e is a beautiful song performed in real life by FictionJunction Keiko. The song is appropriately quiet, sad, and soft. It has always sort of reminded me of rain, especially the parts where the chorus sings. The piano and violin bits are lovely touches, and the background music is just beautiful. I just love the song!

mikka (third day of the month) ...
The first 2 days have been a successful chapter. It surprises me that I can walk that extra mile to keep moving on. Like my wonderful imoto and buta chan said, what is life without good food? Although it pains me much for skipping my mom’s daily wonderful cooking, I am content. I am looking forward for a healthier and more standardized kamisama in front of the mirror. I wonder how much more I have to wait. A couple of month’s maybe? I wonder.
Some people said The Chinese is the best race ever created by the Gods because they can adapt to different culture and diverse situation at any given time. Look at those Hongkies, they survive the economic turmoil and become stronger by days. Like them, I managed to get used to the 5 liters water requirements everyday. Although you won’t call that as an achievement, I am happy I can finally do that. Even my admin executive asks me “Alex, don’t you feel tired walking in and out of the toilet?” I smiled and say “hmm, not really”.
Much have changed since I went for the diet program, I felt I am more attached to the water like the fish needed water to survive. That’s for now, wish me luck!

hajimete (for the first time) …
Last week, I went to Larry’s house for barbecue. The food is great and the atmosphere is wonderful. Cool breeze surrounds the gathering; it reminds me of Genting. The only turn off is the “playing fire” session. It took us 90 minutes to light-up the charcoal. What surprises me is Larry’s girlfriend who has toned down so much. She told me she went for a diet program.
Oh yes! The brand is Herbalife! Sounds natural and full of promises. Since I have decided earlier to wage one last war, I have chosen Herbalife as my front-forward cavalries and mild-exercise as my backup infantry. Yesterday is my first and for the first time, I noticed it is a pain in the ass to drink 5 liters of waters in a day!
My brother tempted me with a plate of nicely done chicken yesterday, I nearly fall for it! Luckily my PS2 saves me; I spend all my night time yesterday playing with Magna Carta, a wonderful game with nice plot and graphics.
That concludes my first time with Herbalife! A painful yet promising experience. I manage to survive a day without meat! Yes! That’s a miracle by itself and it is true.

daietto o shimasu (go on a diet) ...
Like many others, I have tried various methods and products in slashing down those unwanted extra kilos and like many other victims, I fail. All the money and effort jump into the sea without getting any positive results. Not only that, I gain extra kilos after ending the entire diet program. I fail for numerous times until I decided to leave it as it is. After all, this is a curse that I can’t get rid off.
Recently I went to my cousin sister’s wedding. The groom is one my best friend. I knew him since primary school when I was in standard one. I have not seen them for the past 3 months until the recent wedding ceremony. You’ll be surprise on how much he and my cousin have toned down. It furthers reinforce my belief on the curse that have hunted me for years.
To add salt to the wound, those who attended the ceremony, mainly my friends and relatives give me a harsh comment which I should have expected but in a more acceptable way. Comments like “Wah! What happen to you? How come suddenly become so fat?”. The same phrase keeps on repeating by those who I am close with. I felt something is piercing my heart. It is so painful until I couldn’t stand anymore. No blood coming out from the wound except all my self-esteem going to ashes.
I couldn’t eat that night nor could I stand tall. I have decided to wage one last holy war against those unwanted extra kilos. May the gods bless me with perseverance and success!!

haruka mukashi (long time ago) ...
Ever since when I was in secondary school, I wanted to be famous among schoolmates. It is so great to be in the center of attention. People know me for my outgoing and humorous personality. I have lots of friends and some secret admirers too! Without noticing, time passes by so fast. I have started to miss the olden days. I regretted not having enough spice in my life when I was still eligible to fool around.
It has been 10 years since my secondary school graduation; the golden age of mine has just been registered as history. Case closed and that’s it! Much have change for the betterment of my life except my physical appearance. I have grown out of shape and register a double digit growth in weight. I seriously need a change in the way I eat and workout everyday.
