Want a Car? Get a Job!

Currently Playing: Nothing, coz got none of my own radio presets, coz dun hv my own car radio, coz dun hv my own car. (see previous entry)

More on the ride to school todae.

Wisely, only after my mum alighted from the car, my dad remarked that now cars were almost 50% cheaper than when we bought our first car. dad & bro discussed it for a while... then i ventured: "Then... do I get one?"

Dad: "OK lah. You get a job first lor, once you start work u'll need it wat. But of course not if you work in the city lah."

1st thot: Huh... I owe my parents so much liao, uni fees, allowances, lodging, etc. Still wanna spend their money to buy me a car??? How to ever pay back all??

2nd thot: YAY!! :-)

hahahahhahahha... but yah lor... if i work in the city, no pt getting a car coz CANNOT drive to work. but where else can i find work? jurong? all those engineering crap? then i rather go without a car... can just imagine myself dreading the drive to work every morning... wld be tempted to get into accident just to delay going to work.

also, rite now it's just 4 of us... just nice for 1 car. why i wanna pollute the earth further by emitting more exhaust and guzzling more fuel? probably world oil already hit peak production liao... it's just going to get more and more expensive also.

used to want an SUV... but not anymore since i learnt they guzzle more fuel and are less efficient. revamped my thinking and now just want a normal, usual, boring family car like 99.99% of cars in SG. but of coz, if they can make electric or hybrid cars less expensive and more efficient, even better! i sure take! fuel cell ones also can... can fly ones even better!!

maybe i shd wait til marriage (if that ever happens) before i get a car. liddat i dun owe parents so much... feel bad enuff oready, spending another $5K to stay in this crap uni. then liddat my wife pays 50% of the car. eh think wat? car free ah? most prob i'll be driving her ard most of the time anyway. pay for ur ride, woman! hahahahahah

oh man. now i guess it wun happen liao. dammit i shd really shut up sometimes.

wanna save the env?? Get those LPG cars, or those hybrid cars.... think its cool! But more ex.

You won't dread driving one la.... lol... but then again, lets say you are working far away, you'll still dread going to work, different is, you dread taking public transport, or you dread driving.... :P

yah i meant i wld dread going to work... and since i wld be driving, dread the drive too.

and unless they make economic sense for us to drive env frenly cars... they're not going to be popular. SG ppl are practical... altruistic ideals alone wun appeal to us...
