Finally finished Angels & Demons by Dan Brown just over the span of a day inclusive of sleep, mahjong, and playing around with Henry’s new Logitech Wingman Pro GP wheel.
More amazing, is that my lil bro finished it earlier than I did, while I rigorously tried to win back my chips into the wee hours of the morning.
On another note, seems like there’s a sharp rise in dengue cases lately. Perhaps mosquitoes have evolved another level? Based on my itchy feet, I can tell that their numbers are definitely asphyxiating.
I wonder if I spelt that correctly.

Yay! No more squeaky squeaks. My car shall no longer attract attention in ways that are funny and hilarious.
Chatting with the foreman after having him tighten a tyre arm bolt, it’d probably cost me another 1K+ to get my carb fixed (it idles at 2K rpm). Suddenly a transplant doesn’t sound so bad after all.

1 a : a spare tire
b : a duplicate (as a key or a machine part) kept in reserve
A spare car key kept in a another car which is usually away from home: bad idea, demonstrated by how I was driving my nuts off hoping to pick up my old Accord from the workshop tonight instead of tomorrow morning.
In the end, the car is still parked near Dharoos.
What’s it doing there? Just listened to a gut feeling that something bad might happen soon if I don’t replace the squeaky parts with new steel and rubber. Actually, it was everyone’s gut feeling.
So by tomorrow, I’ll be 1K poorer.
Indeed, I was supposed to have taken the entire day off today, looks like it’ll only be half, since I came in to work 2 hours in the morning, and 2 hours at night. Despite only being 4 hours in total, it wasn’t very comfortable.
Anyway… gotta cave in early to send the kid bro to school. Sigh~
Aaaaanyway… caught a few clips from the FFX soundtrack playing on the TV. On RTM. On a Malay drama series.
It’s weird. It’s creepy. But if I worked for RTM, I prolly might’ve done the same.

At my age, you start wondering how to go about the rest of your life:
- religious, or delinquent.
- GLC, or private, or freelance.
- bachelor for life, or marriage.
- humble, moderate, or lavish lifestyle.
Tough decisions. The gang ain’t helping.
Also wondering bout the rules of inter-religious marriage in Islam. The general rule is that both need to be Muslim, but there are some who say that it’s ok between ‘children of the book(s)’. Enlighten me.
Wonder if there are any such rules within the other mainstream faiths.
