Everything is not working

3X says "This is the time of the year where everything seems to be turning bad. First is the car, I have finally given up hope, that the car will transform into a robot, and repair itself. Yes, after a couple of brake problems, electrical problems, glass window problems, leaking problems... I have return it to sender... the scrapyard... and its probably a tin of sardine now. So goodbye Honda Civic, you have serve us well and we get the message (not starting for a hundred times), that you just want to retire.

What else is not working anymore?... The TV, the rice cooker, the water heater, the toilet, the washing machine, the fridge... and the worst of all - the airconditioner. I can live without all the above, but sleeping without the aircon, is really uncomfortable. We have 4 fans running at night with windows open, and we are still sweating! Incidentally the aircon compressor is faulty, so hopefully its fixed by this week.

And today, things just gets "better and better". We went to Giant, Tampines to look for a new rice cooker, so after that we waited at the taxi stand. I kid you not, we waited for nearly 1 hour, and we were still 5th from the front. We given up, and then waited for the shuttle bus to Tampines and after waiting for half-an-hour, we realised we stood at the wrong line... Sorry to miss the family soccer match, I think if we walked there, we could have reached it.

Well, hoping things will look brighter from now on. We are on the look-out for another car, and getting the air-con fixed, and the rest of the stuff to be operational. Wish us luck... we really need it!
