I found my dreamcar

What is my dream car you ask? Something small, safe, sporty, a lot of space for people and a lot of fun.

At first I could not see anything I wanted in the market along these lines. In my financial range at the moment I could afford the Toyota Avanza. So that was what I was aiming for initially. Now. Hmmm I would say it was love at first sight. I can not get this car out of my mind. I will now have to really work hard for it. It is miles more expensive than the Avanza but I really do not like the van look. :( What a pity because on the money view it is perfect.

However I have a chance to increase my pay within the next month. There is a government exam which I can take. If I score top marks for that. I would surely be able to get an increment. That brings me well into the range of being able to afford the car. This is such a happy moment for me. Just have to work harder in getting that extra pay and maybe do more part time jobs.

Hah. A little voice is warning me of the dangers of going for something which pushes the budget. hmmm. Not another dilemma. Just look at this baby. Hmmmm. I don't have to ask you if you think the Avanza can compete with this.

VERY nice!! definitely blows away the avanza by kilometers! hehe..Good luck with the exams...so good la you, rajin mau sit for the exams..me, i was a total rebel!
hahahah.. mana rajin... tamak duit ada la.. hahha.. thanks lina.. the Rush Rush song keeps on playing in my head.. hahah

According to laws of attraction. I need to imagine myself driving the car already. So been doing that for two days already. The self aligning is by getting the right pay. hahah.. I hate exams as well. I promised that I will never have to sit for any exam again back in UMIST after the last paper. Then I did masters. Then I promised again that was the last exam ever. Never again.

Lesson to learn here is Never say Never.

hi, just found your blog, interesting. I think better think back b4 u want to buy that car, why dont you save up more and go for the new suzuki 4wd, more stylish, at first i am so excited when toyota launch 'rush' but after doing some surveys and comparison i think u better wait for the next upgrade model.

:) just my opinion.

Dear Faine
Your advice is well appreciated. I also like suzuki's. The very first car I drove around long distant was a suzuki. The first car which I had an accident in was a Suzuki. However, the new suzuki car will take ages to come, the parts are not as widely available in Sabah as Toyota, and the second hand value of a Toyota keeps all over the world. Maybe in the future, I can still afford another car if I wanted to sell this one after 3 years. No problem I will look into Suzukis.

Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

Yesterday was a wonderful day. My Kiddo had a wonderful birthday with his cousins and girlfriend. hahah not a girlfriend at 3 years old per Se but a friend's daughter. Sigh.. I can smile and I survived. It is six months now.. and we are still living. Thank you God for watching me and my family. Today I am working as I have to meet a deadline. I miss my kids but it is going to be like this for the rest of their lives and my life. There will be times I can spend all day with them and days that they do not see me at all. Tomorrow I know I will have them to myself all day long. So I hope it will be good. In the future I hope to be a better mother to them. I hope that they will have a bright future and have a lot of laughs along the way. Peace to the World.

change is constant

I like the title of my blog. It just wraps up life so well. Everything constantly changes. Everyone grows. It is amazing.. The wonderful thing that I have realized is that when you feel down, it means one day you will be happy. If you are happy.. no one knows it will turn bad or worst or better. But that is life. It changes. Hence you have to change with it. Otherwise you get blocked or frozen.. I love life.. I love the way it changes.. because something nice just happened and I feel sooo very happy..

Hey lady.. you lady!

Ha ha gotcha... I am not cursing at my life. I am just cursing at my bloody persistent headache. I have been to the specialist and Dr ENT said I had a sinusitis. Uwaaaaa... never heard of that.. Why now Why me.. I need my health to be tip top. That is why I have my headaches, my sinus is infected. Nevermind. That just means I have to work even with this bloody awful headache. Had popped to panadols this morning. Maybe it is past it's due date. I do not notice any relieve of headache. Hmmm... Plus I have to meet the BIG guns today at five. Maybe I should sleep first and rest my poor head. Okay this panadol popping preggy lady will in a nutshell still want to talk about American Idol.. I just can not wait for tonight. Last week I got too busy to mention my lady favourites.. I really like that teeny tiny Filipino girl, Ramiele Malubay, That Asia’h Epperson... her performance was joyful, Carly Smithson really dissappointed me ... I really hope she improves... Syesha was good too.. Com...
