So Mazda5 it is.....

After couples of reviews and forum we read from the website, the biggest complain we have for CRV is apparently the fuel consumption - which is what we fear the most!

and coz Mazda5 is pretty new, there werent many of them, but somehow the complains focused more on the "uncomfortibility" of the interior , arg, but what the heck, i think is ok...

Dont mean to show off but gotto show off a little bit on the first new car =P

Lets look at the exterior, initially we wanted a black one, look more sporty - but there werent any stock and we cant wait any longer without vehicle, plus we gotto pay more for the bk one. so.



Then the interior, 3 row seats and shifting options, manual or auto if you like....storage compartment underneath the seat! good to hide things away from bored doggies in the car.


How do I look in this?


Last but not least - the self potraits (ahem, pls again bear with me) - Here I come Cancun, Mexico!

Are they really bonding ?

Pooky and Phuket chilling out...err sorry I mean Lexi


Are they really bonding? seriously i dont think so yet, coz Pooky had tried to attack him twice today, one is unprovoked - another one clumsy Lex stepped on him while he was asleep and trust me it hurts!


Its so hard for us right now coz we had to sneak behind Pooky's back kissing and cuddling Lex, otherwise ull get that kinda look that will just pierce through your heart from Pooky , something like :

" why~ you dont love me anymore? why are you doing this?"


So yeah we test drove a Honda CRV today, oh my god, gorgeous gorgeous! we were very close of closing the deal - and that guy gave us hope by quoting us 2000 dollars less! then he realised he made a mistake written the number down - he meant 550 a month, not 520, booooo to that! so is 11k more, we could ve almost get a second car for that amount...

Mazda 5 it is , test drove a matrix and that still isnt that big enough. Actually, we had closed the deal with Mazda and kinda forced them to give us a loaner car - a freakin CX7!!!!! an even better SUV than CRV - gosh how will we feel tomorrow in that mini mini van? well...i think ill be happy =)

We are human, and we are one greedy creatures - thats how it is in this society, all that competitions, it all comes from greed and self center satisfaction. dont you think?

Stressful but fun day~

Got up 7 something this morning - excited as a little kid, but i decided not to torture myself tryin g to kill time by myself where everybody else is deeply asleep.

so the solution is - drink a double-shots and went right back to sleep.... Woke up 10something feeling bit drunk n bit sober...

Anyway - tasks of today
  1. check out a new car.
  2. pick up puppy.




Pooky , ur such a sweetheart and u will always still be our dearest and we will never love you less...


sure, whatever~
Then we stopped by Mazda, Toyota and Nissan
we really like this mazda 5 mini mini van (thats right! double mini) and for incredible price! only 23k - coz now tat we got two dogs...(one of them are huge!)


So we had narrowed down to Toyota Matrix or Mazda5 - they are about the same price but mazda is much more spacious than Matrix - really still debating, so whats your vote?




There are few that we are also looking into - but these are higher end, maybe 30k and above - but we really want a reliable and long lasting car - of coz we were told TOYOTA is better than MAZDA, now what about CRV?

anybody out there who could give some reviews? ( or own any of these vehicles?)


Say hello to Lex



isnt he a cutie? and he's soo good and obedient, i think he will be easy to train

Pooky meet Lex

"Pooky; Lex, Lex; Pooky"


yup! from now on we have two little kids - and maybe years from now we ll have our real two kids and then Pooky and Lex will be our dogs....haha nono we ll have 4 kids then!

anyway think im getting tired, peace..

Project saviour and what are we guna do with that piece of junk?

What a day !

Firstly, something is very wrong with the van, it has this funny noise from the engine and sometime it wont go even is in the "drive" gear. I drove that piece of junk around getting honk all the time!

"Calm down !!!! cant you see the double signal!?!?"

sent it in to the workshop and is the gear box! - when you hear gear box you think of $$$$$ with wings.. it cost bloody 3k!!!! seriously for that piece of junk? we might as well get a new car.

Darling is so stress with this right now, I think we gonna renew S's car insurance and use it for now until she's back. At least or hopefully ill be working for few months already then and got some income... I promise darling ill get you ur car.

But the good news is, I found this guy online and he's incredibly helpful with my project - He's expert in AVR chip and been a great big help !! Even more so than some of my team members. urg! anyway, thanks alot Dimitris.
