Happy Merdeka to Malaysia, heheh and that’s Independance Day to some of you who doesn’t know.

Anyway, the WCG pictures will be up soon. I’m still trying to catch up on my loss of sleep for the past WCG weekend =P

Yep, you read the topic right, i’m gonna be a WCG Marshal for the next 4 days, LOL. Been getting fox to help me get a job in WCG for the past 2 years i think? But in the end i just forgot about this but this year i really wanted to work in WCG for just once. It should be fun i think, hahahah.

The funniest thing? I’m a marshal for Warcraft 3. Hmmm, not funny yet? What about this? I don’t even play Warcraft3 OR DoTA. =X Funny already? LOL It’s been a while since i went into the gaming industry again. Woohoo, and the money i get from working, i’m gonna buy my phone a 512MB Dual Voltage RS-MMC.

Okay, gonna update my blog after the WCG with some pics yea? =)

Whoa, who would’ve guessed that i’ve finally got a chance to drive my all time favourite car? The Subaru Impreza. Me and a few friends were at a tyre shop one day where someone wants to get a change of tyres. After a little while of waiting, another friend came in an Impreza which belongs to his boss. He usually exchanges his car with his boss when the Impreza needs to go for a fix/repair/mod. Anyway, the Impreza was there to do an alignment setting and my friend as usual drove it.

Since he was a friend, i asked him if i could get a ride or even drive it personally and guess what? He said “Drive lah!”, and instantly after the alignment setup was done, he gave me the keys to the car. All i can say is “OMG!” after the engine started. The exhaust note of the boxer engine is stimulating. First gear was engaged, then the car started moving. When we went onto the main road, he asked me to accelerate and so i did, but obviously, it’s not my car so i didn’t accelerate till redline =x

The pull wasn’t that great maybe because it’s on 4WD but when the pull comes in on high RPMs, it was DAMN good. Went a few rounds around Sunway and with the sounds of the exhaust ringing in everyone’s ears and the stares we get, the feeling was great, hahah. =P Anyway, after a few rounds, i was throughly satisfied and this is the one car i would really love to get one day. (Of course the Skyline R33 too =x)

Actually this happened yesterday but i was lazy to blog. Heheh, yesterday morning the haze was still here but i guess when afternoon came, the wind blew the haze up north and the sun started shining again ! =D That’s good news considered the day before, the API (Air Pollutant Index) in Port Klang and Kuala Selangor went past 500 and the government declared a state of emergency in both places. KL’s API was around 300+

When it was at night, i was on my way to Subang when i started seeing the buildings again clearny which were barely visible when the haze was here. Anyway, Andrew went back to Penang for the weekend to run away from the haze but guess what? The wind blew the haze north and he told me that his friends are blaming him for bringing the haze back to Penang. LOL Anyway, it’s all good now and today, the skies are super duper clear ! =D

On another note, the latest Hypertune magazine is out and Pro-Hatch is the featured club in the mag! After 3 months of waiting, we’re finally featured, but the pictures were a bit sucky though not to mention the amount of typos the guy made. I’m not sure if we’re gonna be featured again on the next issue cause the photographer took lots of photos and just a few made it into the latest issue. He did mentioned that we’re gonna be featured back to back for two issues though. Not sure if he’s telling the truth or not, heheh. =P

Yep, today the haze was even worse and i’m very very sure that the visibility is less than 3km. Even i can’t see the other end of the street when i’m standing at one end. This is crazy, and everyone is starting to wear masks. I don’t wanna be seen wearing one =P Anyway, today at class, the smell came in and i can tell you that the smell is horrible. The heat that we feel, the smell, the sight is all bad. It’s a good thing that i’ve got no class tomorrow, so it ain’t that bad. I *might* be staying at home, heheh.

Anyway, no pictures of the haze today but you can imagine how bad is it from the pictures i posted yesterday which is already quite bad.

*edit*
Heheh, went out just now and managed to capture some pictures and it’s obvious that today is worse. Wonder how it would be tomorrow? =\

The 2 pictures on top are taken from the same place, but the first picture is yesterday’s while the bottom picture was taken just now. What do you think?

To those who passes by Sunway daily would know that from where i was, you can obviously see Sunway Pyramid which is quite far in front but today, nothing can be seen.

I’ve also heard that schools will be closed for tomorrow and Friday but i’m not too sure about this. This is gonna be bad. Hope the haze won’t come to a point where everyone MUST stay at home until the haze gets better.

As you all know, the haze has been here for about a week now and i’m sure that it’s here to stay for a while more. I remember it started last week when i was having lunch with Alvin at McDs when someone told him about the haze, but the weird thing is we could see clearly that there isn’t any haze at all at our area. It wasn’t until we went home at around 5pm when i came online and saw everyone talking about how bad the haze was. Being a little curious, i went outside my house and then that’s when i saw the street outside my house was hazy.

Anyway, this went on for almost a week and i noticed that it got even worse today. I reached class at around 9.30pm and the sky was somewhat clear and there wasn’t any burning smell. When i came out of class at about 12pm, the compound was blurry and hazy. A strong burning smell appeared with the haze. This is gonna be bad to those who’s having respiratory (spelling?) problems and i’m seeing quite a lot of ppl wearing face masks for the past few days. Well, i guess the main question in everyone’s mind would be, “How long is the haze gonna stay?”

Had my 2nd set of Advan Neova tyres changed yesterday from my old worn out and totally thread-less tyres =P

Old worn out tyres.

Despite the worn out tyres, they still worked well when i was coming down from Genting with a friend trying to follow a taxi’s pace. Of course you can see it in my previous posts. This tyres are the best tyres i’ve ever used so far. (Uhm, well actually i’ve only used Falken Ziex before and it isn’t too bad, but these Advan Neovas are in a totally different league) Heheh, totally satisfied with this tyres but too bad the prices for 16″ or 17″ rims are super expensive if not i would’ve changed my rim size now. =(

Gotta love the thread design on these tyres =)

Had my camber and alignment adjusted at the same time and now my car feels great =D
