the big ones

it is impressive how an apology can remedy situations. i offended a lecturer yesterday, without forethought intentions of course, i went a bit ahead of myself and shot off an sms without much thought. i regretted what i've said to her after retrospection. so an apology was in order.

i think discomfort, on my part, would definitely have set in had i simply left things the way they were. it's not nice knowing someone was pissed at you and you not doing anything about it, right?

anyways, take a look on our roads and you'll noticed that cars are getting much bigger. people're moving away from the once commonplace sedans and replacing them with SUVs and MPVs. how silly.

carbuyers fork out hundreds of thousands and think they're getting something really value-of-money. see, you pay the price of a high end luxury sedan like the nissan cefiro, but you are really getting a much larger and tougher family/sports vehicle like the hyundai santa fe. good deal? this means more metal, bigger wheel circumference, more leather, more window space, etc. etc. etc. what suckers.

you're really paying for a tank, for god's sake, minus all the protective bells and whistles and hi-tech weaponry of course. plus, gigantic cars have a higher chance of getting in an accident because they respond slower and roll over more easily when bumped. -smirks- not feeling so hot now eh?

oh hey, i've got the vw touareg in my 10-year plan. an SUV of course. perhaps being in a bigger car and on elevated seat will get me to pay more notice while driving and be noticed in return, i might even spot the love of my life, before i get into an accident that is.
