it's time

watched a few dvds this past week, all from the 90's.

coincidentally chow yun fatt starred in two of them, and in one of them the car he was driving blew up. later on in the show he appeared again and i asked chinky whether she was surprised.

chinky: of course not! it's still early in the show, and 他是主角之一 leh.

 -----------------

been busy fiddling with the car. did tons of research too. the problem with a car this old is everyday stuff like the engine and gear oils have to be specifically sourced, and you'd think twice about using shit that's too modern, like spark plugs and air filters. well no matter, i'll get it solved.

to make it a safe everyday ride there're several things to be done, like replacing corroded girders and bars, upgrading to telescopic shocks, converting to disc brakes, and solving the cooling problem. and they're gonna cost a fucking bomb. so i'll just diy what i can for now. like the brakes and cooling system.

-----------------

my parents sat me down after i took their new baby out for a ride. they told me to wait three months before driving it because i'm not old enough for the insurance coverage. so i told them sure, i won't touch it. dad said i'd get to drive it eventually. i told him it's okay, i meant i wouldn't touch it ever. i couldn't care less about that fucking audi now. i'm already activating my Ducati plans, and even if there's no response from the seller i'll probably just get a cheaper bike anyway. don't fucking chuck a tantrum when my fucking bike comes. i've given ample warning.
