Why must own a car?
Thursday, June 2nd, 2005 at 12:03 pm in My LifeLiewcf asked an interesting question: Why must own a car?
Below is my valuable comment to his entry:
Since you have a legal driving license but you never hold steering again since you passed the driving test, I don’t think you still able to remember how to drive…and no car=big sucka no life…lol dont get offended by me =p this is the way i talk and people dont really need an expensive high class fancy bling bling car because paultan is right, car is for transport. BUT imagine you drive your date to Hotel Rennaisance for school prom with a Toyota Corolla GL(20 years old pardon me) which normally they keep this kind of car in muzeum. Thats what i did! haha and do you think you’ll be very proud and park your car in front of the hotel enterance? Will you still have the face when people younger than you driving Toyota Altis park beside you? How will your girlfriend feel? Not good thats for sure…im just glad that now i own a car more luxurious than Toyota Corolla GL for goodness sake haha. *Actually it is just a Gen2*
Actually this got nothing to do with peer preassure or anything…but nowadays owning a car is a must if you want to make your love one happy, less fuss, safety issue and for your own comfort to travel here and there…Imagine when you finish work and wanted to go home, you walk 30 minutes to the nearest bus stop and the rain started to fall. You did not bring umbrella and the whole bus stop is packed with people. You can’t get to squeeze in for shelter…haha so why own a car you ask?
I still remember those days when i study in Inti College Subang, i need to trouble my dad to fetch me to the nearest KTM, then take 1 hour to reach Subang, then walk 15 minutes to my college. Those were the killer days and it gets even worse when the KTM seats are full and you have to stand 1 hour to reach home after the long walk to the station and somehow it reminds me of those who paddle sampan, climb across mountain just to reach their school.
So do you actually need a car? The answer is no. Because i don’t need more car to stuck in the jam with me lol.

good thing there is no jam in jb, if not my radiator sure hancur…
btw kahsoon, how is your Gen.2? I personnally think my parents in Proton have gone bonkers for introducing such a silly sibling to the world….

Your parents in Proton?

yeah, i remember those days, days before i owned a car. when it’s raining the buses are not only packed but packed with sweaty people. it’s like a suana. adding more poison, the multitude of odours you’d have to breath in. yucks!
personally, i don’t care if a girl will only go out with me only if i drive. i don’t even want to call her out if i don’t drive. this has nothing to do with ego. i believe if i call a girl out, i think it’s only appropriate to do whatever in my capacity to provide her comfort.
