after crash: closer look

Well, the next day after my terrible crash, I still went to work. This is because my lady boss had ordered me to edit something for her, which is needed urgently. The other editor is off, so I have no choice.

My condition is not very bad, but is not that good afterall. The wounds on my leg is pain, and I can only walk slowly. My 3rd aunt and 4th aunt keep calling me, ask me go consult a doctor. They are worried if I had internal bleeding or other injuries not being seen. They made me start to worry, so I decided to go for a check up.

Anyhow, the doctor says I'm fine, just some soft tissue injury. No internal bleeding, no other injuries. Everyone was relieved after the diagnosis. I am lucky! I did asked for MC anyway, because I really need a good rest at home.

Today, which is my leave, I stayed at home all day long. Really taking a good rest. But then, Mun Hoe show me something shocking. He took my helmet out from his car after his lunch, and show it to me. OMG!!! It was broken!!! I never remember I had any head impact, I never remember I had any impact from my right. But....oh my...I don't know what to say...it's just so horrorble.

Alright, now let's take a closer look at my wounds and bruises.

The wounds are still fresh. You can still see tyre mark.

The wounds on my leg on first day. Not sure what is the black mark.

Injuries on my arm is not so serious. Just some scar.

Here comes the broken helmet.

I wondered how it broke. I did not remember any head impact.

Take a closer look. It must be a huge impact. Lucky enough it is a full face helmet, or else, I will get serious injury on my face.

Something I do not understand: tyre mark on the right side. Is that meaning I hit the tyre barrier at my left, span, then hit again on my right? omg

The visor is about to detached from the helmet.

My torn jeans. Jeans also will be torn, I thought jeans supposed to be durable?

Alright, this is my leg injuries yesterday. It started to have blue black. It is worse now.

I felt so damn lucky to just get minor injuries from this crash. Maybe the angels are looking after me, haha. Anyway, mom called just now and asked me to stop racing. What do you guys think? Stop? No way....

terrible crash

Friends know karting is my interest. As usual, I went karting with Mun Hoe today. We went there yesterday, but it was raining, so we return to the track this morning. We were informed that only Fun Kart and 100cc karts are available for rental. Due to the tortoise speed of the fun kart, so we decided to take on the 100cc challenge....again.

I had a crash before this when i first played 100cc karts. That leaves me phobia to the speed. I was so so so nervous before sitting on the driving seat. My heart was beating fast, hands were shaking.

I was still so afraid, dare not to hit the throttle hard. Until I realize Mun Hoe was driving away, I knew I had to overcome it. I hit the throttle to the full, and it feels good after few seconds. I knew I love the speed. The tyre grips well, the car is in control.

The first round ends, I could not catch up Mun Hoe. He is fast, half lap faster than me. The moment I stand up from the car, I felt dizzy, I cant stand properly. My hand has no energy to hold even my helmet. I was that tired just after a 10 minutes run.

After a short rest, we are back on track again. This time, after overcame the fear, I am on full throttle, sprinting with 80kmh. On the 2nd lap, the long small right turn after the downhill, where the kart is at the top speed, my kart suddenly lost control. I was pushing hard I admit, but I thought that I am able to save it. The moment I realize my kart lost control, I am already on the outside kurb, the slippery side. I hit the brake, lift the throttle, but it is still going straight. In less than a second, I'd arrived at the grass area, wet grass area. And I know, there is no more chance for me to save myself.

I closed my eyes, dare not to see what is happening. I hold the steering tight, that made me feel safer. I felt impact, I felt I was thrown in the air, I felt unbalanced, I felt another impact. Everything happened in just few seconds, but it seems to be so slow, I remembered it clearly. I thought, this time, I'm gonna get serious injury.

The moment I open my eyes, I see water drops. My visor is lifted up, those water were on my spec. I thought I was up side down. But lucky enough, I am not. I tried to stand up, move away from the kart, but then I bend down again. I felt pain on my legs. Ohhhh....my jeans was torn. And I see wound inside the torn jeans. The next thing came into my mind is, I'm gonna pay for the damage I did. oh my....

The track marshals told me that was a serious crash. They sent me back to the waiting area, then pushed the car back here. They called me upon, and told me, you will have to pay for the damaged rear axle. It is not repairable anymore. Lucky enough again, the marshals only require me to pay half of the price, RM150, because I am regular customers.

I asked them, what happened just now. Their answers shocked me. They say I enter the apex too tight, understeered, then lost control, slammed into the tyre barrier, the kart thrown half hang in the air, and drop down again. One of them told me, it is lucky that I hold the steering tight enough, or else, I will be flying~ phew...I will probably laying in the hospital already.

The kart I drove, and damaged.

The damaged, unrepairable rear axle.

Side bumper that slammed hard into the tyre barrier.

My injured leg inside my torn jeans.


This crash is a big lesson for me. It reminds me how important it is to take the correct racing line. It also reminds me that, I do not have such reflex , and my skill is not up to the level yet. This crash will not stop me from racing. But, it makes me realized something very important: to get proper racing gear, especially helmet, racing suit and ribs protector. Not giving up....yet!

毫无意义的碎碎念

不经不意,已经快一个月没更新这里。不是生活风平浪静,只是有时候会觉得疲惫……

最近一直在背黑锅,也不知道为什么,偏偏就是选中我,太样衰……
是没有很在意,只是希望我的用心没有白费……
大家都应该有学习的机会……

其实这篇文章的意义是什么?没有。不过是有些疲惫,发发牢骚。

子时,夜宁静;
未寝,心情紊乱;
唯独新月作伴;
却 更显 孤单。

悔不当初

有些事,还真的来不及,回不去;过去了,无论做什么,都是无法改变。

我很后悔;后悔犯下的那个错,把一切都改变了,把美好的都摧毁了;

悔不当初;我没有让时间倒流的能力,只能默默承受,我亲手摧毁了,的一切……

Batu Pahat 之行:纪录

前两天,星期六,随着十几位本地艺人,远赴 Batu Pahat 参加明星篮球赛。别误会,我不会打篮球,我只是代表公司,去那里为球赛做影像记录。


出发前只睡了三个小时不到的我,可想而知,是非常的累;但就是怎么都无法在巴士上睡着,心事重重?或许吧。比较不幸的是,巴士竟然还在半途爆胎……

在东甲换过轮胎,我们大约中午十二点抵达,并用午餐。新加坡的艺人,也在同样时间到达。在餐馆拿了一些画面做花絮,便享用午餐。

多位本地艺人

新传媒艺人

午餐后,在酒店休息一会儿,球员们便到球场练球。我和同行的志民,嘉菂,与 Jojo 都必须跟去,拍摄花絮。


练完球,大家便去吃晚餐。这时,我们才发觉,怎么又是茄子? 难不成 Batu Pahat 出产茄子多?晚餐后,回到酒店,我们便准备拍摄我们公司节目的艺人访问。访问了几位新传媒大牌艺人,发觉他们人都好好,不知道是否因为有摄影机在的关系…… -.-


我们访问完毕到达篮球场,便开始做全程纪录。篮球赛拖到九点才开始。而我开始觉得有点累,眼睛开始模糊。没办法之下,我把摄影的重任付托予志民。我则一边休息,一边看球赛。


球赛后,我们又到了另一家餐馆吃夜宵。在 Batu Pahat, 我们就一直都在吃。 肥死了!回到酒店快一点了,本来想找朋友聚一聚,也被迫打消念头了……只好改第二天一早吃早餐了。


翌日早晨,Esther 和男友 Eng Huat 便载我去吃 Batu Pahat 的早餐。比较特别的,我觉得是炒萝卜糕,因为它的味道,用料等等和吉隆坡是不一样的,连卖相也不同!不过,是真得很好吃!


用过早餐,他们便带我四处逛逛。我们去到一处高尚住宅区,里边的豪宅都非常雄伟。而且听他们俩说, Batu Pahat 还出了许多名富豪,如丹斯里陈致远。在此感谢 Esther & Eng Huat 待我逛了 Batu Pahat 一圈,和带我吃了那么好吃的早餐,因为我听说,酒店的早餐不好吃,哈哈


从高尚住宅区某处看,就是 Batu Pahat 的市景。其中一座蓝色屋顶的高楼,便是我们国家著名领导人被偷拍的案发现场,Katerina Hotel



回到酒店,大家刚好正在办 check-out, Jojo 也帮我把行李拿下来了。离开酒店,我们向 Batu Pahat Mall 出发,为我们公司制作的赈灾单曲 CD 做宣传。


司仪小姐才18岁


吃过午餐,便开始踏上回吉隆坡的路途。一个人的我,总爱胡思乱想……不过,累了,还是撑不住,睡着了。归途中,认识了明星偶像出身的 Ivan,还有球赛的司仪小姐欣怡。

Ivan, Jojo, 嘉菂

回到吉隆坡,我战战兢兢的开着志民的车,把 Jojo 和嘉菂送回家。我才发觉,原来在吉隆坡开车,没有我想象中那么恐怖。


(p/s: 明天我将会随公司到马六甲拍摄外景长达三天;纳闷-ing,其实我不想去)
