Another sad day

Posted on February 24th, 2008 in Announcement by yeehan

I’m beginning to wonder if my lucky stars have dimmed their lights on me. Yet another unfortunate event happened to me less than 24 hours earlier. I thought that all the good stuff should be on the roll after the bad Hawaiian incident. And yet, my emotions and mental strengths are tested once again.

My car’s timing belt broke down and subsequently resulted in engine damage. Most likely solution is to change the whole engine. But there is no point to spend more than the car’s value to repair it. And hence, I have to let the car go and swallow down the bitterness in the heart.

Why o why does this has to happen to me? Why am I being the chosen unlucky chap again? It feels quite painful in the heart whenever I think about it. The Hawaiian case has more or less settled down and now, another one. It’s like putting salt on the old wound again. Ouch.

I have no choice but to take this emotional test again. I will stay strong but I really hope that the road ahead will not be gloomy again. Else, I really don’t know how to handle such things anymore. Sigh. I just feel like shouting out loud at those mountains high up. Arrrggggghhhh!!!

Anyway, I guess one thing to feel blessed is that I was safe throughout my roadtrip. I really don’t know what will happen if the car broke down in either Death Valley or other National Parks. I’ll be doomed for sure at that time. Luckily nothing happened during the trip.

Tercel, you’ll be deeply missed! It was a great road trip that we managed to go together before your engine gave way. :(
