Car Driving Lesson

Hehe. I had my car driving lesson this morning. It was rather enriching as I had learnt many new things.

1. When the clutch is slightly released, the vehicle will move on its own. This will be known as free wheeling. When the speed of the vehicle is maintained, I can actualy release the clutch completely and the engine will not die off.
2. I have learnt more about right turning techniques using the steering wheel.
3. I can increase the engine revolution to 2 or to 2.5 before releasing the clutch pedal to half clutch position. When releasing to half clutch position, engine revolution will drop slightly but due to the higher engine revolution, the vehicle will not vibrate violently.

My engine dies a couple of times while making a turn and it is probably due to me releasing the clutch pedal too quickly while the speed of the vehicle is too slow. But I have managed to overcome this problem.

All thanks to my driving instructor Mr. Heng.

Vanessa Birthday

Today is 25th of August 2007 a saturday. And today is Vanessa Birthday. So, Ben, I Allan, Jeremy Wong, Joanne and her hmm should be "bf" bah Doro and Alvin went to celebrate Van's birthday by eating prata at Prata Cafe in Thomson near Long house. There is a rather wide variety of prata but I still prefer the chocolate prata at Casuarina Prata at Upper THomson. That's probably because the fact that I like chocolate.



I have just added some links relating to my hobby and some official links which everyone can link it to whenever u need help in finding the right routes to your destination. :D

PM National Day Rally Speech.

I have just watched this year PM Lee Rally Speech. He talks mostly about aging population, education and housing problem and solutions. One thing I am interested in is the way how Singapore is going to build this new town Punggol under the project Punggol 21+. I hope that the town will really look like the town that is portrayed in some of the architectural designs. Looks like my bus routes will have to be rerouted in around 10 years time.

Service 16 extension to Bedok

Service 16 is extended to Bedok wef this Sun 19th August 2007. The pic below is I have created for the benefit of those people that bring Transitlink Bus Guides whateverthey go. They can copy this pic, save it and print it in 4 inches by 5.5 inches. In thatcase, it can be slotted into Transitlink Bus Guides.




I feel that Bedok is a town that is very accessible. For exmaple, if u wish to go from Bedok to Orchard, u can take the MRT, or 7, 14, 16.
