^_^

well, the calder drag went ok,... not so good but ok... my best time was 15.6 @ 87mph... well, is close enough to my 15.5 prediction... but i think i could do better, around 15.4 coz i stuff up my 60feet launch (2.4sec)... i did 2.2 sec 60feet before... that 0.2 difference, so its possible to get 15.4 damn

and on the sunday, i did dyno days with toyota forum boys.... only did 95.5KW ATW... damn, but yeah, i forget that my tyre pressure was still 22psi (from the drag)... i think i need to service my car soon... sounded abit rough

then yesterday, hav a greet and meet with boys from OZmazdaclub.com...was fun... very friendly and nice ppl they were... then we had lunch at D'lish Fish, at pier, beaconsfield... soooooooooo yummy.... love the tar2


AWESOME BURGER
Oh, btw, i reckon my favorite burger now is 'grilld' - it a relatively new burger shop... one near swinburne prahran, one in hawthorn... very very very nice... yummy and addictive... the burger SO BIG man... but price is the down side... well i guess its no different with nandos...

Tomorrow is a big day

Please no rain please!!!! the wheather forecast said it gonna rain/shower tomorrow... hopefuly for this once they're wrong... well, finally the calder park drag nite is very near.... now i can't sleep... gotta work tomorrow, but still cant sleep... too excited... well, i guess i'll give my office's work to aswin tomorrow, and i'll sleep in the carpark... :P jk jk

at work this past 2 days is good, learning a lot of stuff... but also bad, coz i feel like 'information overload'... well, at least it better than doing the 'ethics' test... we learn software testing procedure... hmmmm interesting... but yeah, every time i ask my mate, aswin, to explain something to me, i feel like a small earth worm facing an anaconda (well, aswin does look like anaconda abit when he yawn)

well, cleaned my air filter tonite at my mate's place, paul. i havent been cleaning it since the sydney trip... when i pull my POD filter out, it was black! (u know, its supposed to be red) darker than my exhaust tip... :( so, rush to 'super cheap auto' in rowville - they're the only one that open till 8pm - and get the cleaning kit... feel better now...

met this 200sx on the way home... i swear to God, i saw this HUGE ASS flame come out from his exhaust, then i try to follow... then on the next traffic light, i was side by side with him... so i thought i'd give it a try, i know i know.... before u all say something, there is no way my Big Fat Ass 2.3lt L4 FWD NA gonna have a chance against sleek L4T 2lt RWD weigh 200kg lighter than my car... but hey! i just want to know how far i lose to him... :P

i know i'm crap at launching above 3000rpm... so i just try from 2000rpm... that guy smile at me, then turn green, i launch first, jump around 1 car length ahead... i was thinking "hey i could win! yeah!!!! wooohooo..." but fuck!! as soon as he put 1st gear, VROOOOOOM COOZZZZZ, then another VROOOOM COOOZZZ, then he is suddenly 4-5 car length ahead of me (-__- #)... (T__T) make me really want my MX-5 with 13BTT.... hiks hiks... oh well, it was fun anyway... but i have even finish my second gear.... (T__T)

ciao, gotta feed the dogs

1st day at work

first day was pretty good, met some new ppl, the office is pretty big, some how the ceiling look like a dinosaur's spine, in orange colour :P

atm havent got my own cubicle, has "simon corlette" name on it :( but yeah, my manager told me i'm getting new comp soon. atm still using 'flat brain' hohoho... my position is Quality Assurance (QA) here. sounds so wrong if it was in nandos, :P coz back in nandos, QA means testing all the food before we give it to customer... hmmmm taste this, taste that... :)

today is my second day, got pretty early today and guess what? FREE breakfast! i missed it yesterday... this place is good man, even when i was in nandos i dont get free breakfast lol... when one of my mate, aswin, told me about the free breakfast, i was abit suspicious, i thought i have to deduct it from my pay or something... lol somehow i feel really dumb here, surrounded by lots of good programmer, i remembered my first time worked as photographer didnt get this much pressure... well, at least this first week, i only hav to do series of quiz about "ethics" which my co-worker, aswin, like very much... hohoho jk win, thx for the 'brute force' method.... good to kill time :P

well, got my parking space today, and took picture for ID card... wasnt that good, i look like inmate :( just add the knife and gun... lol oh well...

3 more days to calder park! cant wait!!!! ^_^

For one of my friend

For one of my friend

i got something to say for someone i care... my friend... my 'brother'... i dont need to mention the name... i just cant tell you directly as i know that you wouldnt listen...

is few extra dollars u earn worth losing a friend? i agree that a true friend will forgive you, but hurting them is not something you should've done in the first place... i dont mean to get involve in your problem, but if theres anything i can do or help, i'm here... i'm listening... money is not everything, and friendship should last forever... this might sounds gay to you... :P

its never a good thing to lie in the first place, whether its to your friend or only to someone u know few hours ago... and you live by reputation bro, please stop it... thats not worth it... i know ur a good guy deep inside. i couldnt direct this to you directly coz i know you would shut u ears and avoid me afterward... others been wondering whats seem to be your problem... shared it if you want, but i u dont want, do whatever makes u happier...

other thing is 'respect'... thats what we need... its not a privilege, but it something that u gotta earn... one of my best friend once told me - "...telling or saying bad things about others doesnt make you a better person..." - i hate to say this to you, but you HAVE to try to change, coz you're losing friends... its easy to make new friends, but to make them stay, you need a friendship...

i'm not judging you... i can't... coz i'm no better than you, but as a friend, as your friend, i HAVE TO tell you if you are going the wrong way... hope you get this message... coz i know you're often on friendster...

cheers...

6 more days to go for calder park!
