Money Suckers - Best Place to Stay is Home

Lost another RM 320 due to an accident. This time it's with a motorcycle. It came from the back overtaking me on my right and without me noticing, I turn out right and banged on him. The poor guy fell on the road and luckily he's a stunt man and at the end appear alright with superficial bruises.

We went to the nearest motorcycle workshop and came out with the bill for the damages amounting to 318. Got a discount of RM8. Paid the RM8 for some medicine for his wounds. The guy's an Indian and we were both gentlemen and cool enough to settle it with a settlement letter at the back of the bill.

I am grateful we all came out alrite without anyone hurt further and me avoiding jail. My car need a good body work after this. May consider sending it for a full body work with spray painting after getting my EPF money.

Last month was an accident involving a Grand Livina which i knock on it from behind. Just a soft knock. A matter of fact a soft push and there goes my RM400.

In total to date this year, it's RM718 lost to road accidents. I ought to be more careful from now on. It seems my luck prediction this year did came true that betold of me involving in some accidents of minor nature. I hope this is somewhat an end to my misfortune on the road.

I think I start to believe that the best place to stay is home most of the time now.

Amen and Namo-amitabha.

The Sky Is Falling On Me....

Before.....
Feelings: Stressed out, overwhelmed....
To do: Effort estimation, deployment dates to commit, meetings, functional spec (use case)
Moving forward: Just do it. Isolate, clarify and resolve!!!! Eureka!!

After.....
Feelings: Relieved, strategized, energized


p.s.: To remember - Stress is something you give yourself. Exerted from within. It can be healthy if you are able to manage it to turn it to the energy that drives you. ;)
