The roundabout came into sight. He can hear his heartbeat now. Thump thump dup dup thump. Gently applying pressure to the accelerator, the dark purple Toyota Prado motions forward with more purpose. It is near. He runs the procedures quickly through his mind: brake, turn, release, brake turn, release. 100m. 50m.
The Prado glides to the outside of the SS3 roundabout. He brakes, turns, releases. However, instead of the 'piu yee' stuff you see in the World Rally Championships, the Prado spins to the side and across the curb. BANG. KRRAAAAKKKK. BOING. The Prado had crashed into a tree. The unfortunate tree, disgusted with this human for bribing the driving instructors, decides to throw him a limb. The thick branch crashed down spectacularly on the Prado, trapping him inside. It was 3am.
At a mamak stall nearby, Hamyu thought he heard a yelp. Like a muffled "Help!". Thinking too much teh-ping is making him hallucinate, he excuses himself from the table, apparently to the loo. As he came out of the bushes, Hamyu saw it. The Prado and the tree. Not even thinking of calling his malat friends, Hamyu races forward. Peering inside the Prado's window, Hamyu could see a mere shape of a giant male genitalia. "I knew it. It's Dicky." As Hamyu tries in vain to open the Prado's door, the tree spoke: "Reveal six random things about yourself. And I'll let him go. Damn you P drivers."
1. thanks to YW YH studios for introducing a new way to respond to tags - to spoof them.
2. unbeknownst to some Manc friends, I too had growing up pains during HS and emo-ed for quite abit then. Me & Big Nose even came up with the motto: "the ultimate philosophy of life is that there is no certain philosophy of life". How genius is that.
3. a majority of my life philosophies are derived from a game. Planescape: Torment (1999) changed my life forever. Is in my list of "things to review in web log".
4. I can generate 1000 random, normally-distributed numbers in MATLAB >> randn(1000);
5. don't like the number six.
6 other P drivers:
1. Phing, who's screaming to be tagged, although she'll need 2 wks to proof-read her 6 random lines.
2. Jay, who seems like he's nvr been tagged.
3. Yiwen, as punishment for not updating her blog during summer hols.
4. Nileey, who wants to add some colour to her life.
5. Hoojx, *edit* TINY-STRAWBERRY!
