I’m at work, with the Waja in a workshop in Bangsar Utama. When I collect it, I’ll be 300 ringgit poorer.
Why? Because Proton Edar’s service crew failed to diagnose the problem properly when the car was still in service. As a matter of fact, they even made things worse.
Their lack of compassion in their work, even giving excuses as to how they cannot rectify the problems they themselves created by either poor manufacturing or shallow knowledge of their products, leads me to lose all confidence in our local brand. Never again shall I purchase another Proton car, unless I’m freaking desperate.
VTEC all the way.

I know I had a lot of things I wanna put here right now, but I just can’t remember what exactly. Must’ve been the food.
Speaking of food, consultants treated us to break fast at Tropicana. The spread wasn’t bad, but I’m pretty sure it was much smaller than last year.
Suddenly, there’s a huge pile of clothes in the laundry basket, contrary to what I expected earlier. Seems that my sister saved up all those clothes, waiting for us to either get a new washing machine or fix the old one. College students, sheesh!
Well, both my sibs aren’t around now. Left for JB with my dad this afternoon. Finally, I have the PS2 all to myself! Boogers to those Dynasty Warriors addicts. It’s Lovage time!

Looking for someone to fix your home appliance? Look no further.
Kedai Elektrik Cheah, just delivered our 8-year old Indesit washing machine after taking only 1 day to fix it. Yep, it’s 11pm.
Their people skills are also top-notch; they’re still smiling after a long day of deliveries and pickups. They’re also concerned whether they could park right up the front porch, or wear shoes along the rear balcony.
Cost: RM 260 all inclusive of parts, labor, and transportation.
A totally far cry from the previous 2 repair people who either overquoted the cost or tried to con me, I’d definitely go back to Cheah for any further repairs.
Now, if only they could fix my car.

Ugh… staring at screen and tiles all day is awfully tiring.
The rewards for queueing up for 20 minutes for a good nasi briyani is worth it. 
I need bonus.
myuucon, my web-based thingie mentioned in my Tech section, is underway. I’ve just managed to get the initial login process done. Then I have to work on the actual panels. And the taiko face is somewhat distracting.
For non-Jap speakers, if you truly want to enjoy GITS: Innocence, then I suggest you play it back at about 75% its original speed. Too many subs. @_@ It’s tough being a fan of a very philosophical universe.

Um, no, not me.
Two of my favorite mangas have finally hit the motion screen. BECK, whose theme song is as the title of this post, and Yakitate! Ja-pan!
One, about a great band in the making, and second, about a great baker in the making. Both are great stories at the opposite ends of the manga spectrum.
Went washing-machine shopping today at SS2. Leaning towards a top-load 10kg Panasonic one for about 1.3K. Or we might risk getting American-made Whirlpool, which has hot water.
