I'm stressed

Perhaps many teachers in Singapore would be able to empathise with me. It is one week before the holidays. Although, it does bring joy to some, it bring anguish to many... for this is the time when checking of books is done.

There may be reasons for this event, perhaps good ones, but I've yet to find out what they are.

Why do they have to add the pressure I am already facing?

I'm now watching Singapore Idol on 5. They are murdering the show! For heaven sake, I wish the judges would have more back bones rather than clinging on to each other's comment. Duh

Its night and its warm

I went for a walk just now. It was dark and quiet. Saw a man walking his dog, big dog. Thought of walking to the park but gotten too sleepy.

Tomorrow is my school's official day off in lieu of polling day. I'm so excited. Hope to spend more time with my son. Made plans already. Another long weekend.

Nothing exciting happened to me today except one of the students used a pen knife and cut his wrists while in the toilet. When probed, he said that he had no reasons.

Me wife brithday

Just celebrated my wife birthday yesterday. Bought her a durian cake. They used real durian flesh and not durian cream. Heavenly. Wished I took a picture of the cake.

Its less than two weeks until the school hols. Am so glad for it. Can't wait to hang around Raffles Place and watch the faces of the desk jockies goes by as I enjoy my Ya Kun Kaya toast breakfast.

Oh here is the URL of my favourite forum on the net. Its mainly on Hyundai cars. www.clubhyundai.org

Its May

Its May, and so, March and April has come to past. What this means is that I've been a trajet owner for about two months. I really care for waht people say about this make/model, but I really love this car. True, fc is a bit high but compare to what? I'm now enjoying fc of about 10km/l with minimal modifications done to the car. Some people states that they could only get 6-8km/l! I mean, how could that be? This is a 2L car, with none of the frills. It can sit 8 compfortable and runs smooth.

And now, this is my review of the car.
I've been driving this car for about 8000km so far. It is roomy, upfront and back and my son likes the air con control at the back. It drives like a lazy beast. I mean you really have to hit the pedal if you wish to have the same sensation of driving a sedan. But, you really do not have to. Just a slight tap to the pedal and the car will move. Sure, it won't impress your mates with its lack of pick up but that's not the forte of this beast. Bring it up to 80-km/h and it'll wake up. It is around this speed that it'll start its sipping mode. It'll just sips the petrol. Just tapped the pedal and it'll het 100km/h easily and quick too. My wife won't feel that I've hit 120km/h! It is that stable. And the engine is silent up to 2.8k rpm!

What I don't like about this beast it the way you have to access the rear seats. I have lots of problem going in but then, I'm a big person.

Will keep you updated on what I've done with the car.
