I have never expected to change a car tire before even passing my driving test. But I just did it together with my bunch of friends yesterday without the help of anyone. It feels good.

Haha.

Dee and me were so excited when Zhiwei’s car tire puncture. The first thing that came to our head was " Let’s do what papa always do. Change the tire! Very easy ma."

Some more not too long ago, i asked my dad if changing the car tire is like changing my bro’s toy car tire and he said yes. So it was just taking out the bolts, change tire, and put back the bolts.

Hehe.

So dee and me went to the boot, to find for the spare tire. zhi wei didn’t know that all this while there was a spare tire in her boot. So when we found it, we didn’t know how to take it out because it was screwed to the car. Luckily dee found the bolter to unscrew the tire from the boot. And that was when we started to have fun!

Keehao and jimmy helped carry the tire. Luckily it was quite light. Dee grabbed the hydraulic lifter (pump? whatever it is called), and pump pump and pump. Then she had no more strength, so jimmy took over. Then Jimmy tired, so huey wen took over. I was just watching and giving support and taking pictures. hehe. There were people stopping by to see what were we up to. But none stop to help. We are true Malaysians.

Then after the car was lift, Keehao wanted to unscrew the tire but we didn’t know which way to unscrew it. And it was so tight. But thanks to a good malay uncle, we suddenly heard some one said "kiri". Then we were like " owh, ok! kiri kiri! " But keehao had no strength to unscrew it, then the magical voice came again, this time it was " pijak! ". So everyone told keehao to step on the bolter, and Huey wen supported him just in case he falls.

When the tire was out and the new tire was in, we felt so happy! It was like " Yay! I can’t believe we actually did it! WooHoo! "  Most of our hands were so dirty. I think the uncle was impressed our gang did it because we look so young and childish..We proved to the world that we stupid teenagers can at least change a tire. We are not useless! This is big deal. Haha. Of course we thanked the good uncle.

Then each of us went to Sakae Sushi at Bangsar Village to celebrate our achievement. And each of us told our parents, so that they will feel proud of us.

I sat for my physics test on waves today. I actually planned to copy my smart friends but i didn’t. I guess, maybe getting good scores but not your own hardwork has no meaning at all. Might as well don’t take the test at all. If my school mates read this, i guess they will be quite surprised that i planned to copy because when i was in secondary, i wasn’t in those group of people.

I guess A Levels has shaken me up a bit. I don’t know how my score will be like, I am a bit scared because i failed my last one, but that was because i didn’t study for it, but still hahaha failling is not a nice feeling. Imagine everyone did well and i failed! I mean my test only, not my exams.

I am trying to stay strong, it is not easy but actually it is not hard also, but i guess i am slightly lazy now. There are some distraction now. My goal is the only thing that is keeping me going. If not for my goal, i will be doing something so differently. But i am proud of what i am aiming for. I have chosen it, i will go for it.

Everyday travel to college, i see that the haze is coming back, i feel sad. I see the industrial area near our house, every morning there will be smoke circling them, KLCC is not that clear already. All these keep appearing in front of me, it is like i am being reminded of my goal. I can’t really get away from it.

I just want to go for my goal and make my parents feel proud of what i do. I want them to tell people " That girl who solved global warming is my daugther! " or " You know why Malaysia is so environmental friendly now? Because of my daughter! My daughter is Charmaine Ho!"

Wow! Hmmm, 3 weeks has past since our mid term break, and so many things has happened! I have finished so many of our LAN projects and all i have is to submit the last one! Then have to go for the exam to complete it.

Then there were some exciting events which involved dee and me and people around us. So exciting! Few weeks i thoguht my weeks will pass with nothingness in it. hahaha. But i am kind of scared because people cannot be trusted.
