Hey Mr Spencer

Been so busy for the past few weeks. A lot of stuff happened but the most exciting of all....

Drum roll....

That's my new baby Spencer. Johnny is now back home in Penang under the care of my mom. It was heartbreaking for me to leave Johnny in Penang but I'm glad that I didn't have to sell it. I can still see him whenever I go back to my hometown. I have been driving Johnny for about 8 years and Johnny and I have been through a lot together. Johnny was there when I was homeless for 3 weeks, driving fast emotionally when I was an emotional wreck, got me to my 1st job interview, got lost with me driving around KL on my way to the interview for my second job and basically just getting me everywhere safely for the past 8 years. You'll always have a special place in my heart dear Johnny.

The process of getting my new car would be a lot easier if it was done in KL but I didnt want a KL plate number so I went back to Penang for 3 weekends in a row to settle all the stuff.

Weekend 1: Visit dealer during Thaipusam and did booking. Next day, went to the bank for application. Next Tuesday, loan approved.

Weekend 2: Federal Territory Day, so I went back to Penang to sign the agreement and a letter of consent for my dad to pickup the car on my behalf.

Weekend 3: CNY. Send Johnny home and bring Spencer to KL.

I was so broke last month that I took LRT to work for a week. Was fun not having to drive for a week. Its amazing that I didn't have to take any annual leaves to settle the car stuff. Its a small car and it wouldn't be on the top of my list if i had a choice but i'm happy with it so far and most importantly, its fuel efficient and my road tax and insurance won't cost so much.

Well, that's that and I will be forking out 500 bucks a month for the next 7 years. Its not much compared to what others are paying but I still won't be making my payments willingly let alone with a smiley face.
