Weekend of Formula 1 Fever

This weekend is the Formula One, or more commonly known as F1, Singapore Grand Prix race. So it makes it justifiable for us Singaporeans to enjoy this weekend of F1 fever with our friends from all over the world who had came to watch the race with us. I'm no different from the rest. It's like... ... a festival, a bazzar, and I feel that I should be part of it. So I make it a point that I must go for the Singapore Motor Show 2008 since I don't have tickets for the race and I haven't miss any of the Motor Show since like a few years back.

Thus I have been like looking for people to go with me, and the first person I had in mind was Gim Hock, because he promised me he would come with me the last time we went out to watch Money No Enough 2 at Plaza Singapura. Unfortunately, he left me a message on my handphone yesterday, saying that he had guard duty to do and so can't make. I was like... rather disappointed actually, but I don't blame him. He had his own life too, so why should I intervene into his life if I'm nothing more but a burden? The next person I had in mind was my usual-hang -out group, Jin Tai, Jin Long, Dennis. Jin Long initially said yes, but this morning he text me to say that he is busy and won't be able to make it. Jin Tai and Dennis came along. I suppose I'm happy with them, especially when I tell them what to expect for NS since they are enlisting in like one and a half week's time. We also discussed a bit about the F1 race, just random stuffs.

This year's Motor Show is a BIG disappointment! I expect it to be of the same standard as that of the last one since it's like the F1 weekend, and there are tourists around. I bought the tickets and it was like $6 only, and it came with a coupon for a free mini cornetto ice-cream. I was like wondering why is it so cheap this year as compared to that of in 2006, where it costs me 20 bucks. It was only upon entering the exhibition hall that I realise the difference. Firstly, this year is like missing out on a lot of 'big players' like Mazda, Toyota, Suzuki, Ferrai, and etc, as oppose to 2 years ago. Secondly, the cars on display is like, almost the same onces two years back with only a few new models. Soooo disappointing!! And the funny thing is that we actually laid eyes on one Isuzu lorry. Dennis say it's like super economical because it can fetch both people and cargo. Here's the lorry:



The Isuzu Lorry

Anyway this year's main highlight is sQuba, the first car in the world that can go underwater. This concept came from one of James Bond's movie, where he drove one car underwater. So now, driving underwater has become reality when it's only a 神话 last time. Anyway I told a photo of it:

Dennis wasn't feeling well when we went off from the Motor Show to Marina Square to shop for a motivation gift for his girlfriend. So he went off early, while Jin Tai and I went to J.CO for donuts and ice chocolate, before we go home first to rest a while before going for dinner. I was talking to Wei Bing for a while on MSN actually when I reached home, about the Motor Show and the sQuba. He says the car isn't of much use unless people are starting to stay underwater, which I think is rather true. He's going for movie this evening to watch Best Friend's Girl. I quite like admire him actually, although I don't really know him very well. But we are chatting often now on MSN, so should have chance to know him better.

Dinner was Sakae Sushi at Causeway Point with Jin Tai. The queue was like damn long so we decided to go walk around the mall first. I was doing the talking most of the time, like telling me not to be like me, like regret about my life and everything, telling him not o be a loser like me. We went all over the place. First was MJ Multimedia to browse DVDs, then Courts to look at electronics appliances, followed by Nokia for handphones etc. Continued talking about our problems in out lifes in Sakae over a couple of sushi. Jin Tai insisted on treating. We went home after that. Oh. And before that I bought this book Being Happy from Popular first. Apparently I need to learn how to be happy.
So here I am again, blogging about how 'happy' I am today. Actually I am kinda confused: How do we know who our true friends are? Gim Hock has been like replying randomly to my messages. Like I text him today and then he will only reply like two days later. I hoped he is not under too much stress. I wanted to call him several times to like find out whether he is okay or not, but I'm scared that he is busy and so in the end I didn't call him. What if I'm really a burden to him although he himself say no true? I'm really impressed how he juggle between his own training, his family, his girlfriend, and etc. So sometimes I feel that I shouldn't like 烦 him. Zhi Xiang also. I think I owe him really big time for everything that he had done for me, even simple stuffs like area cleaning. Today he's suppose to be celebrating his father's birthday with his family. I just asked him on MSN about how the celebration went. It's almost an hour now and he hasn't reply yet. I hope he is like playing his PSP and not ignoring me. I think I'm like... too close for comfort, since two months ago. I tend to look for him more because like there's not much people that I can talk to already. I don't know but I am like beginning to treat him like my own brother already.
I'm confused. Over little things and actions from people, especially those whom I'm close to. I feel... lousy and inferior.
I'm trouble, I'm stupid and I'm a loser. It's basic genetics. Can't help it.
