Overlooked

my frens car broke down jus now. spent the last 1 hour downstairs helping out........ my precious 1 hour......... i could use it to at least finish my remaining 25 notes. but a fren in need is a fren indeed ;p but i learnt something jus now. nothing is wat it seems.....

everything from the breakdown pointed towards lack of battery..... as in the car's batt jus went kaputt or jus simply drained itself away.... u can't start the car; u can't wind the auto window up again; the alarm gives off funny stacathoic put-puts.... the classic symptoms of battery gone case.

we tried to push and jumpstart the car from 1st gear........ nearly got into an accident. it was quite scary. i was in the driver seat....... my frens, hafiz n suhaimi was pushing the car. the gals was watching. we waited till the coast was clear before pushing the car down the slope in front of Vista B's lobby....... jus when we got the momentum and speed going........ tat bloody red car jus have to reverse out from the parking........... bloody female driver!!! can't even park the car properly on the 1st try n to think that there is so much space on her right n left (god, its vertical parking for god sakes.........) with the car right in front of me, i have to choose either to risk jumpstarting the car n do some bunny hops n if lucky enuf stop inches away from that bloody red SUV or i can opt to take the safe way out and jus step on the break.............. wait........... i can't step on the break, coz lishan had used up the maximan 3 pedal breaks after the car stopped..... (you oni have enuf braking oil left in the system for maximum 3 brakes after the car stopped) so i opted for the safe way out..... its not my car for god sakes......... i pulled the hand brakes.......... it screeched to a stop much to the relieve of every1. hahahaha hafiz asked if i manage to jump start it........ i was like, i luv to but i do not have few thousand ringgit to spare if i knock into that SUV ;p

while as the story goes........ we gave up, parked the car and went to the guardhouse to ask them to clamp lishan's car as her window was down. the guard came over to check n FOUND out that the bloody socket for the cars battery was loose!!!! he tighten it n the car is up and running again.......... and to think all of us there didn't even notice that bloody socket.............. goodness gracious.............

Moral of the day: never b too sure of anything as nothing is wat it seems........... serves as a good teaching for me n my frens who will b doctors one day. we cannot risk diagnosing the patients wrongly as quite alot of disease have almost similar sign n symptoms...... god bless for the lesson well learnt today...........

hrm.......... posted the most blog on the day before my killer exam............. y m i doing this? .........
