German weather

 

Was planning to go for a run, but it started raining… then I found myself watching the start of F1 Nurburgring (Germany). I haven’t watched many F1 races before, but this one is definitely something memorable (for all the wrong reasons). Car crashes and rain… hail, all within the first 5 mins.

 

At one point in time, about 5 cars got skidded into the same place, one by one caused by aquaplaning. Commentor said that must be the most expensive carpark in the world:P And now, a restart behind the safty card, with rookie Winkelhock in pole position. Raikkonen from pole position to 7th, just because he missed the pit stop (!!!) to change to wet weather tyres. So, it’s not just Singaporeans that can’t drive in wet weather (I always think so!), the pros can’t do it either:P

 

I’m just wondering, with Singapore’s weather as unpredictable as Germany’s (that’s what my German ex-colleague told me), what will happen when F1 finally comes next Sept. Especially it’s a night race. Scary.

Shaving woes

 

Last week, I found the stubbles getting abit too long, so I decided to trim them down to the standard 1mm before heading out. Halfway through the chin, the shaver stopped. No matter what I did, it just didn’t wake up from the dead. Batt’s ok, the mechanical parts just didn’t connect. Although it wasn’t very obvious, but I could still see that it’s not balanced. Damn… I have to use the normal shaver and try my best to make it look abit balanced. Well, it wasn’t too bad. No one noticed, or maybe, they just didn’t say it:P Later on that day, I went to buy another one.

Sunset

 

When I noticed the wall behind my monitor turn into gold… I remembered saying I want to take the sunset.

Mother’s Day

Yesterday, while I was out with my mum and discussing about purchasing some stuff. Then she went… (in mandarin), “I need to check if that’s within my budget (in english)…” I was shocked!! Where did that come from? I mean, my mum doesn’t speak english and now she’s telling me she has a budget! I was so surprised I laughed abit and asked her… who taught her that? She gave me that sheepish grin and said… “don’t know, just heard people saying it.”

 

While driving home that day, the scene kept repeating itself in my mind. Then I recalled when I was younger and learning how to ride a bike, I used to hear them saying… “ta bu-rake!!” (meaning… step on the brakes, more applicable for cars actually). And somehow, I picked that up as well. And I still remember my parents laughing at me when they heard me screaming across the corridor to my neighbour, “TA BU-RAAAAAAAKE!!”:P They’ll go… “now he knows how to use ta-bu-rake!!” oh well… it’s just one of those memories of the corridor days:)

 

Happy Mother’s Day! Love you mum!:)
