Good Day

Chronological pictures in one day...It all started when I went to USM Transkrian to meet my fren....mode: from happy..to shocked...to relieved..to impressed and to grateful.... =)

Mode: Happy...

Lunch at Secret Recipe in Parit Buntar...owh..n yes you heard me correct...Secret Recipe is in Parit Buntar..!!! hehehe...

Me and my lovely baby... ;)

My ex-roomie during masters  & PhD

Us with our meals

Siap ble baring2 gitu.. =p

Pic mahal nieeee..! =p

Tp ni lg mahal laaa..hehehe.. =p

here it is folks....esp to my colleagues in USM dolu2... ;)

Mode: Shocked...

On my way back...I accidentally DRIFTED my car at the sharp curve exit of Penang Bridge...opsss.....I'm not a drifter of course ~wished I was though!...in some other words...I lost control of the car n made it swirl almost 360 degrees at the sharp curve exit...!

The drain that halted my car...

Boy I was in a shock after that...Even Zahra end up crying...as she was shocked too..!

Mode: Relieved

My first move was to check on Zahra and she was okay....then i went outside to check on the car...n surprisingly..there was no dent at all..! fuh.....alhamdulillah..relieved..! after a couple of mins...a few USM staffs who happens to use the same road stop and helped to lift the car out from the drain n made sure that the car is okay to be driven...I thanked them a lot and drove slowly home....

Mode: Impressed...

My hubby arrived a few minutes after I arrived home....while driving home..I realize there was a harsh sound at the back tyre so my hubby had a test drive to confirm it...then we went straight to the workshop...there the mechanics checked my car and said...one of the tires are torn....and one of the bearings are broken....so the total cost of the repair was around RM400....

but looking at other tires....they were kinda worn out..so as me and hubby had some extra cash from our business...badminton rackets and Premium Beautiful ~alhamdulillah...!....we decided to change all the tires...

but what was I impressed about...? here it is....

as my hubby had an appointment with a customer at that time....he decided to just meet at the workshop...so instead of having one customer...he ended up having a few more customers as the mechanics there were also interested..! =p

business is still on..!

makin ramai plak...

bertambah lagi....

after the car has been fixed and test drive...still ade mechanic yg nak beli raket.. =p

Mode: Grateful

I am grateful to Allah as there was no major damage to me...baby Zahra and baby 7707....I am also grateful to Allah for all the rezeki given....eventhough I 'drifted'....the sales from our business on that day alone....had covered back all the cost and with balance too..! Alhamdulillah.... =) Without the side business....the accident would have ripped our 'pockets'..! =p

So thats the story...of one hectic day... =p to conclude all this...if

 anyone is interested in badminton rackets....info here... just call my hubby

Clash of Hybrids : Honda Insight vs Toyota Prius....

السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته

and

Good Day

Hybrid cars...gosh...I am sooooo interested in Hybrid cars...! When I heard about hybrid cars for the first time (and that was like yeaaaarsss ago)..I instantly fell in love..! 

but as I was kinda young at that time (now still young lagik la..hehehe) and the fact that hybrid cars are very2 expensive...what I could do was just to see from afar...(even nak test drive pun tak confident..! adeehh..)

but recently..FINALLY...I had the guts to test 2 hybrid cars in one day....two rivals....Toyota Prius and Honda Insight...Honestly speaking I am much of a Honda fella..but as Prius is much 'senior' from Insight...I decided to test drive both....

Toyota Prius

Honda Insight

and guess what....!! testing both cars lead to a very2 unexpected result....

I  WAS TURNED OFF...!! 

The reasons....both cars have 'cons' that I couldn't accept lightly...

So lets compare..! ;)

Exterior

This one..for me Toyota Prius wins...the design is much sleek and futuristic..it also looks much steady from Honda Insight...

Interior

Hail Honda Insight..!! hehehehe....and as for Toyota Prius...this is one of the cons that I could not accept...boy...the interior of Toyota Prius....TAK LAWA..!!! at least for me la...I never googled the interior of Prius before test driving so as soon as I step inside Prius..I was instantly dissapointed..! ~sigh... some people might say that this is a small issue..but not to me as interior is something that I would look at EVERY TIME I drive..so for me..it MATTERS...

Nicer...!

Errr....not really my taste...opsss..!

Performance

This one is like 50/50....in terms of cc...Prius wins as it is 1.8cc while Insight is only 1.3cc....BUT driving both..I realize Insight's engine is much smoother than Prius (dunno if the test drive Prius car is in bad condition or anything...) Prius engines is much louder and 'kasar' from Insight...hmmmmm... 

Fuel Consumption

Hands down to Toyota Prius..! it can go up to 38km/l...!! but Insight...err..according to the salesman...18km/l...and dats the turn-off for me on Insight..the major reason for owning a hybrid is to save in fuel...but 18km/l...? thats not good enough..thats even way farrrrr from good enuf..!

Hybrid Options

Toyota Prius wins again as it has the option of using totally electric..! at least when u're driving 60km/h and below..this would be very2 useful in traffic jams...imagine having to face traffic jams with no decrease in fuel at all...! ;)

Fancy Pancy

This one also Toyota Prius wins...it has the keyless ignition with sensor in the door locking system...so you don't have to actually lock the door with a key..all you have to do is touch the door handle and it locks..! the same goes to unlocking...just open it..as when your hand touches the handle...it automatically unlocks the door...haaaaaa....worried other people would steal your car just by touching it...? kenot laaa....the sensor works when the actual key is nearby... ;)

In a nutshell....cons for Insight are the fuel consumption and cc.....while Prius's cons are the interior and loudness of the engine roar.....

Sedey bile turn off lepas test drive....susah2 sgt....thru Premium Beautiful business.....target amik Lexus Hybrid laa...! The luxurious LS600h L...

droolsss..!

~I am certainly not an expert in hybrid cars but this are my sincere opinions on both cars (from a test driver point of view)...most of you surely have much more information than me...especially hybrid car owners....so if you wanna share...I would be grateful.... =)

~owh and I heard the tax-free benefit on hybrid cars may end by next year...so by 2012 the prices of hybrid cars will rise again..is it true..?
