i m a freeman

just finish exams yesterday morning. pretty early huh...quite. i decided not to change my flight earlier coz juz wanna spend some more time with, hmm...her be4 the 2 months long summer holiday starts and anyway, i rather use tat money for a nice meal here. so currently not really doing anything, juz waiting till my departure date back to malaysia.

well i planna complete my room renovation which was on hold for bout 2 years maybe and add on little bit more. go shopping, finish up the unfinished. wat esle? i think tats all i can think about now.

yesterday babe and i talk about topic about cost and maintenance. we dun really elaborate much in it but i feel it's a very interesting point to talk bout. a lot of things in life can be categorized as high or low cost OR high or low maintenance. dun get me wrong, this topic is not related to any specific thing, i juz wanna share bout it. ha... so, things and people are fall into 4 categories :

( a ) high cost, high maintenance
  • this is so obvious for most of the expansive things especially properties for house and auto. talk with dom bout this point, he suggested that russian girlfriend should be categorized here coz high investment and high maintenance, most of the time still ends up with negative profit and maybe in debt. he got his point there but somehow i feel russian gf should be categorized in the category of low cost but high maintenance and ends up in negative profit as well. hope u guys get wat i mean.


can u take it?
i mean the high maintenance


( b ) high cost, low maintenance
  • well actually for this category i haven really think of something concrete but i do feel that it's somehow related to high or good quality stuff. As in, it will be better to get a thing with a higher cost rather than spending more money to maintain it.
( c ) low cost, high maintenance
  • hmm..this category is the opposite way of high cost & low maintenance. same goes to the example of it which is low or bad quality stuff. sometimes we juz have the mindset that cheaper things save more money but sometimes it doesn, it just brings your more maintenance. this reminds me of the road on malaysia, we can see holes everywhere and they just keep 'tampal-ing' it so end up wasting more money coz initially they just wanna 'save' money. oppss, sorry i dun have the intention to talk bout politics here.
  • skip to another examples, the so-called 'onignigngal leanger' ( actual word is 'original leather' but it's pronounced different way in petaling street, they always said tat to the 'ang moh' and trying to burn it with lighter to prove the originality. Malaysia Boleh ma. u can even get cola panas in mamak stall, SEE !!! . dun get me wrong, i really feel tat malaysia is Boleh in a lot of ways, i still love my country though ). ok come bac to the onignigngal leanger, phew... its hard to spell that man, solute them for pronouncing it. ok i mean really come bac to tat, sometimes if u get cheap things, u will end up changing it more often coz it spoils faster.
( d ) low cost, low maintenance
  • straight i will put 'kancil' ( our national car ) in this category. lost cost, low petrol consumption, low maintenance. see, i told u i still love my country. when one of it's tires come out, u still can always replace it with a motorcycle one.and take away the milo tin idea it's still low maintenance right?
come to think bout it, it's not only about material stuff can be categorized but same to human's character as well. which category are we in? think bout it. dun worry, it's not judging but just merely evaluating to keep improving. -peace-
