DRIVING, parking and I

People always associate women as a bad drivers... then popped out women as a bad parkers... Is It???... Don't think we (women) are a bad drivers or bad parkers... it just sometimes that we are too careful... and need extra time like we always did (for make up, shopping, gossipping, etc). Anyway it it better than becoming a road bullies as most men are.

I start driving alone few years ago, after owned my 1st car... well it takes me few days before I drive alone after getting the car... no courage to drive. However, after the 2nd day of driving, I drove off from KL to Malacca alone... facing the jammed as well as the sense of highways, experienced day and night, as well as caught in the rain... Still remember I dont know where the wiper's handle to turn it on, ended up I used the wash mode to wipe the rain... luckily not a heavy rain until I stop at R&R to search for it...  Anyway, that experience really change my driving's perspective and skill at that time... hahaha..

~ my 1st car (in history) ~

Then for parking, it takes me a year or so before I have courage to do back parking and I will always avoid the side parking unless there was ample space for me to drove in the car directly. Hmmmm... imagine the hassle that I've gone through to look for a such a nice parking space... but that was years before...

Am I a good driver and good parker now... well, not bad... but of coz there were times that I still  need to put some effort to parked.. the time when the car parked next to my space is taking up so much space, when I missed out my judgement when do my turning, when I drove other than my usual car for the 1st time or in a blue moon... or simply when I dont really care about how I parked. Another thing, I've change my habit of looking for the nearest parking space (especially at the office), but parked farther away as means of exercising myself  (walking for a slightly longer distance :)), with hope that I can have a nice looking figure... hahaha... (for a non-athletic type like me... hate to excercise some more... but want a perfect shape... (just dreaming)).. well... that's me.. huhuhu)

One thing for sure... man and woman are equally bad drivers and bad parkers... positively... man and woman are equally good drivers and good parkers... only there are moments that the good turned into bad...
Of coz, this statement does not applies to all road bullies and the selfish drivers (you are a bad bad guy) ;)

SCARY ... Accident in LDP

On last saturday, 11th.Jan.2010 around 2.15pm, on the way to Kelana Jaya, there was an accident along the LDP. At first we thought the lorry broke down, then there were smokes coming up.. ingat lori tu rosak and enjin terbakar ke apa, since ramai org dah berkumpul tgk2 tepi jalan... menyumpah ler kat lori tu because broke down on the right lane...

Tapi bila dah dekat... baru notice ada accident, 2 org terdampar tgh jalan...kecut perut sekejap, even we are not the one involved in the accident ( mintak di jauhkan lah).

Kisahnya, lori langgar motor and the riders (penunggang and pembonceng) terheret bawah lori..the motorbike was on fire and unfortunately one of the victim is dead... "Inna-lillahi-wainna-ilaihiroji-un" Tgk jarak antara victim and the lorry... jauh jugak diheret before lorry tu stop.

Victim yg still survive, di bawa ke hospital oleh one of the civillian's car 10 minutes later, after a while baru lah polis dan ambulance sampai.

Hmmmm... so pesan kat hubby, kalau nak bawa motor tu hati2... motorbike always becoming an easy victim, melanggar or di langgar...mcm kes ni, tak tau ler sapa yg salah, yg jadi mangsa pastinya penunggang motor tu. Tapi kalau ikut pandangan kasar.. mcm lorry tu jer, lori sebesar tu on the right lane...?!!! how fast is the driver think he can go...!!

Ikutkan hati takkan bagi hubby bawa motor lagi... bukannya takder keta... Tapi, ajal maut ditangan tuhan..so kita cuma perlu berhati2 dijalan raya dan berdoa agar kematian kita dtg dengan cara yg sebaik2 nya...

IRFAN @ school

Irfan is going to school for the 1st time at R.E.A.L Kids..( well let alone the Gymboree). Kejutkan dia at 7.30am, nangis nak tido.. tapi still terus bawa ke bathroom, pujuk2 ok ler... just a quick bath... no syampoo and brushing teeth ;). Lepas mandi "ngantuk.... "

Pujuk2 lagi... pakai ler baju gym... no uniform for ECP kids, just wearing a gym suit. still... "nak tido"

Dlm jam 8 lebih, hantar Irfan gi school...

There are 4 kids in his class, the ECP class (kids age 2 1/2 up to 3 year's old ).
# RANA - the iranian girl
# KEVIN - very independent and active boy (tak boleh duduk diam),
# SYAMI - the most senior (dah join the ECP since last year, but first day still needs his mummy)
# IRFAN - mummy's boy ( I need to be around .. otherwise.....)
For  orientation's day, teacher Fiza will look after and teach the ECP kids, while teacher Wendy is assisting. Starting  Friday there will be a new teacher who will take over, which is teacher Asma.

~ snack's time ~

~ lepas makan, lepak at TV's room, watching cartoon and browse story book ~

On the 2nd day, after sending Irfan to his classroom and stay for a while,saja jer pura2 tiggalkan Irfan with his teacher, when I step out of the class... huaaaaaaaaaaaaa.... Irfan start crying. So at first buat tak tahu, jer... menyorok kat tmpt lain kejap...still crying, " nak gi kat mummy!.. nak gi kat mummy !"... sampai teacher terpaksa bawa kuar Irfan to look for mummy.. becoz, bila Irfan menangis, he tends to vomit...and he did vomitting  bila I approach dan pujuk dia... hmmmmm... masalah ler jugak,  so today still tak berjaya meninggalkan Irfan kat class alone... baru 2nd day... fuhhhhhh.

2nd day activities, build up blocks, coloring and dance to R.E.A.L kids song.

hmmmm.. wondering, how long it will take for Irfan to be independent... kalau ikut experience... mmg quite sometime... he needs familiar faces to be around... either mummy, wan, nenek or ngah... papa hmmm... maybe also can lah.. mmg betul2 mencabar... bila tanya nak gi school tak... dia nak... he really like to go to school and play with others, but takes time to socialize and be independent .... Irfan oooo Irfan....

IRFAN at office on "1st day of school"
