Impact Of A Soul To A Soul From A Soul

Actually Steed’s been back for a while, and has been doing well. Steed sounds so much better now and I’m really glad.

Did I mention anywhere, somewhere, sometime that I get irritated quite easily. Well yesterday me and steed revved throughout our way home after some frustrations. It was a good one, which got a few others joining or was it they started it. Don’t remember and don’t care.

It has been sometime since I had that feeling, the feeling that the dead pedal seems to gone in a little when I reached home. The sensation was incredible and the excitement from steering and gear switching turned out to be stressful.

It was not really fast and furious type but it was a little bit high speed. Steed’s been great and still good at it. I reached home, smiled as I gave Steed a pat. I was amused and at the same time, my heart was still beating fast and pumping at high pressure.

Welcome back Steed!!!

Since steed’s resting and still ongoing operation, I had to borrow my brother’s car. Since I’m so used to an auto, a manual proofed to be a little obstacle but not a big one. I guess its just mind over matter and I have been cruising in a manual one for many years before Steed come into my life. I’m counting down the days to see Steed again, and I really can’t wait. It’s just different.

I was having a discussion with a colleague in Starbucks yesterday morning and there was this new drink. The name is Azuki frappuccino, and it’s not bad at all. And another thing I learned today is eating coffee beans. I know you would normally drink coffee and not eat the beans as it is. The barista was kind enough to give us some bean that was ready to be made into coffee. I find it quite nice, though a little bitter but it was like crunchy. I guess there’s a new snack around, coffee beans, especially from Starbucks!

I’m in need of rest and a little time from civilization. I’m spending most of my time in the office now with scheduled and unscheduled meetings and discussions. That leaves me with virtually no time to even touch my phone to make calls or even short messaging. I guess I should not be complaining at all, for it’s better that there’s work than none, though I have to say sorry to the short messages and calls that I could not pick up and answer. I hope situation will get better and I will be able to execute things that I am used to doing sometime before this.

Now, back to my projects, I’ve got a race against time.

This is annoying me. What is happening? This is about blogspot. Why whenever I click on the post a comment link, it pops up a new window for comments and directs the existing page to the same comment page. It’s not totally wrong, but why! If you already pops up a new window for it, I don’t need to see it again on the main page.

Well anyway, that is just me, I’m getting annoyed over many many things of late. Anyway do you people face the same problem?

Steed’s going into another operation again later today that is if my leave is going to be approved. This time the operation will take about four days.

It has been three hours and I’m waiting for Steed’s return. Apparently things are for the better as Steed has been cleaned and not much damage was reported. Finally, Steed got back a little more than four hours of repair work. I only concern now is the chip. The water from the air conditioning piping may have damaged it but I will not know until a further test a month or two down the road, literally.

I was basically helpless during that period of time, as I could not do anything to help nor even see what the condition was like. Normally I would get to, but this time Steed was sent to another location for this operation. I’m just glad things are better than it looks or expected.

As I was waiting there, during that four hours, it rained three times. I love the rain and there was an air conditioned room, but I choose to roam and stand outside watching the rain fall down to the earth. The air is so much different from the cooling room, it’s fresh and breezy. Not that cold but cool and breezy. It made me feels comfortable, made me feel young, remembering the days when I play in the rain.

I can’t explain that feeling, but I’d trade the most expensive air conditioning unit I can afford just to get that feeling again, even just once. It’s just one of those unexplained feelings. Thanks to all your well wishes, Steed’s better now, you guys and gals are just wonderful people.

Out of all these, I’d like to apologize to all that I have or may have pissed of these two days. I assure you that the intention is surely not there. I felt the intention of a tear this very instance…

Dinner yesterday was at Tanjung Malim, a small town just after the Selangor border and into Perak. Yes, I was in Perak yesterday.

Dinner was at a place called Garden Seafood restaurant in Tanjung Malim and well, I don’t really know how to give directions to this place as I used the trunk road from the way of Behrang and not Kuala Lumpur. If you use the trunk road from Behrang it’s just on the left of the road and you will not miss it.

The restaurant is Chinese own I presumed as the dishes are all Chinese style delicacies. However the most of the waiters and waitress are Malay. This place is “halal” as the sign in on the door. The cooks are still Chinese I presume judging from the food and taste.

The order consisted of dry chili mantis prawn, Ah Long Sotong (sweet sour ala Thai), buttered fish slices, onion deer meat and vegetable fried with belacan. The meal cost sixty one bucks and I can only complain bout the deer meat, which could have been frozen too long. It was really delicious and I don’t mind going back another time.

After dinner, my heart almost stopped. No, not because of the delicious methyl mercury, but of something else. It’s coz steed’s sick again. Steed coughed a bit last week, I thought it would be better after things got back to normal but I was wrong.

I was driving a little less than a hundred km/h, when suddenly I felt the gears shifted by itself from four to three. Puzzled and breathless, the N started flashing at a regular interval. I stopped by the roadside for a while and all the gears went haywire. I called steed’s doctor and he said it’s most probably problem with the gear box. I asked a friend and he said he also just changed one which cost him more than eight hundred bucks.

Steed and I got back with minimal problems today before admitting steed for another checkup. This is the first time I had to drive on the north south highway, below a hundred km/h, at about eighty km/h. I lost count how many cars passed by us during the almost two hour ordeal. Normally I would lose count on the number of cars that we pass by.

However at the end, just towards the end of the highway, I managed to overtake an uncle obviously driving a little slower than me.

Lame man.
