Value of a blog.

No idea; the answer to discontinued blogging ?

Rovers that ought to belong to the scrapyard.

Before you think that your dad's or mum's car is horribly out-of-date and/or incompetent, you should test-drive those that we are driving.
Yesterday, a freshly-fetched rover drawn out of Motor Transport Line simply couldn't crawl up the slope and move off smoothly without a large chaotic over-rev-ed engine sound.
And dang, after we came out of the airfield, we had to push the rover upslope.
Today, another 'brother' of it had a clutch problem.
Just tapping the clutch will cause a squealing sound that's quite bad. A few seconds later, a burning metal + decomposing organic matter smell filled the interior of the rover. I drove it off to MT line with Vincent and found the old rover's nose choked with smoke. An inspection by the technician revealed the smoke's cause, a seriously worn-out clutch. You could just see how deep the smoke emanated from.
My gut feeling tells me I might get stuck in the middle of the expressway on Sat's detail. Haha.

Back to Base.

Due to report to base tomorrow morning.
Wonder how would things be like after a month away from base and squadron.
Would the camaraderie still remain or would the majority be distant from me and perhaps even callous due to their duties ?
But I do know friendships have to be renewed and everything will probably be the same once again.
"Drive to arrive safely and alive. ".
After all the nonsense I experimented after getting the green slip, the very essence of this statement has more or less been understood. I heard America's driving licences are easy to obtain and I wonder how true that is. Personally, I'd like a tough time passing driving tests although there's much mental suffering to endure with. Prior to my recent pass, the more I fail, the more confident I felt, similar what Wei Liang felt. Failing driving tests makes you learn more and drive even better the next round. However, the results lies in your state of mind and the tester's. For typical driving tests, there's monetary cost involved, but it's a small price to sacrifice for the continued 'refining' of safe driving to keep you alive.
I would very much like to have a power boat licence and wonder if you guys have any information on where to get one.
