  ~ 8:27 PM ~
   wow...it's 1:15am now on the sunday morning. saturday was a day with some new experiences. 
sat morning was my 3 hour driving maintainence theory class...as usual, waiting was the norm and the lecturer talked out of point for abt 1.5 hours. only the remaining 1.5 hours was regarding the topic of maintainence. sighz...
my bro's frens came over from singapore to KL today. staying wif us for a few days. they are wendy and yao hua. gosh! they are so kind! lolx! been a long time since i met  them. well, back in singapore, they used to come to our house often, but i never really  said hi or interacted wif them. had a good day wif them today. 
to play hosts, as usual, we (me, my bro, bro' gf and james) brought our guests to Ming Tien to makan. Ming Tien ish not the one at pyramid. it;s somewhere else...hehez! i dunno the place coz i was not paying attention to the road sign. anywayz, tat place was raelly a food paradise! so many stores, so many choices. in the end, we had so much food on our table: chicken rice, noodles, chicken wings, 30 sticks of satay, stingray, sotong, carrot cake. had a very sumptuos meal....malaysian style! the place decor really reflected the malaysian style of relaxation! really loved the place.
after dinner, we went to SS2 for some deserts.
went home after desert. i took jame's car while the rest followed my bro's gf car. i had a scary time. 1stly, james' car could not start. after a few times, the stubborn engine finally started...but the whole journey was rather...'mind choppy'. i was afraid tt the car will break downhalfway. alas! at a traffic junction in front of Amarda Hotel, smoke was coming out of the car bonnet. both james and i panicked a little bit but regained composure within a short time. engine was switched off, hazard lights turned on. but hey, our car was blocking the traffic,. we were the 2nd car from the front. so in the end, we decided to turn the engine back on and drive on. but instead of joining the Fed Highway, we went straight on to stop opp Hilton hotel to check the car. coz i was really scared tt the whole engine may catch on fire.
so we stopped, contacted my bro to meet us there. opened the bonett...something was wrong with the radiator. or rather, there was some sort of 'hose puncture' and water was leaking out. james contacted his parents and all of us were waiting at the road side for his parents to arrive. it was a rather wonderful expeirnece...standing at the road side after 12am. enjoying the cool weather. talking. really had a whale of a time..weirdly though..haha! i mean, after all, it was a car breakdown. 
and oso, my knowleddge gained in the driving thoery class this morning applied as we had to identify wat was wrong wif the engine..started identifying the car parts...hypothesising wat was wrong. haha! talking abt practical. 
anywayz, we left when james' parents arrioved...seems like his dad has some experience on wat to do. 
think tt today was really an unforgettable day! coolz!
cheeres!
