Three Weeks Time


here's my card

Have you ever watched a movie or a documentary where a certain movement or action is played in slow motion? Well, I experienced it last Sunday, when I rammed my car into another Waja in front of me.

Yes, I got into an accident, but I was not the only one. Four cars were involved, bumper to bumper, but thankfully nobody got hurt. I was the fourth car.

I don’t want to detail a lot about the accident, since it’s not the best memory to reflect on. It happened really fast and I managed to settle it quite fast as well, thanks to AAM.

But what I want to talk about is this: I miss my car. I miss my car so much. It hurts to think how my car’s face is all ruined. And riding to work in a different car just doesn’t feel the same. The sound system doesn’t sound the same. The smoothness of the drive is not the same. Nothing is the same.

I used to hate how the windows don’t work anymore. I used to complain how I had to replace the door handles twice already. I used to plan how soon I was able to replace it with a new and better car. But now, all I wanted was to have it back.

Get well soon ok? I will see you in three weeks time.

Before I forget, Happy Birthday Malaysia! There is indeed no place like home.

Hi Muddy,

Sorry to heard abt your accident but its time to be thankful as u at least have a replacement car. I rang you and left a voice mail did you get it?

As for your last line I would like to add there is indeed no food like the variety of food we get back home due to the multicultural Society the food is lovely fusion.



xoxo

I hope you found your balls back.

Once another car's tyre's exploded right in front of me on Federal Highway. I had to stop aside to check whether my balls are still in it's place.

Oh God, never mind the car - glad you were fine.

Anyway, I share your sentiments towards the old banger - mine constantly gives me problem, & whenever it does, I would constantly curse it, but I still love it to bits & wouldn't even dream of replacing it ... well, at least not yet :-)

It's good you're ok though. Kena whiplash tak? I was caught in a 4-car pile-up before too, and I was the last car! Had such a bad case of whiplash after that. Hope the car does get better within the promised 3 weeks. Both times I've been in an accident, they lied!

Happy belated Merdeka!

Get well soon, car!
Muddy, don't worry. I felt the same way when my brother scratched my car. Though it was very minor but I want my car to be perfect.

hey babe! no, no whiplash since the car is designed to absorb the impact. so it was like butter molding into the other car's bumper. huhu. and i hope the workshop didn't lie, cause seriously, i need/want my car back!!!
