Copic, New BKT Place and Ferrari

This is one of the most fabulous weekend for me anyway (er, which one isn't actually. Hehe...)

I got myself the Copic Markers which I have been drooling over for the last 3 weeks. And THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST THING that has happened to me for quite awhile!!!

The mojo of illustrating and drawing and all-in-that gist is BACK. Makes we want to jump triple higher for the elation I'm feeling. Nothing, in this world can describe the feeling I'm in now.

Even the sickening shits I get from the office no long matters to me. I just can't be bothered anymore.

Well... let's just say, after 13 years of hibernation with drawing, finding back the path and getting back on my feet on one of the far few true thing I truly love (and the fact that this was the one thing which kept me alive in my teenage years) is a sensational feeling!

Thumbs up for Copic marker for reigniting my passion. Yeah!

Anyway, I went to the new BKT shop which the folks have shifted some 2 weeks back. Can't also tell how happy I am to be able to join in to support their new shop. I was counting the number of years we have been patronizing this place every Sunday (until recently when Eugene and I were caught with scary cholesterol level which have crippled us from visiting them weekly, much as we would to actually) and boy, time flies.

We have been eating with them for the past 7-8 years! And still going strong despite the lack of frequency due to health reasons.

It's honestly awesome to be growing with a restaurant and to be able to eat today, in a proper shoplot restaurant as opposed to the shack they operated. It's great to be part of people's growth. And I can't express how heartfelt I felt when I was eating my brunch today. Honestly.

The other funny bit which got me rolling with laughter was the fact that today, while we (Eugene and I) were driving to BKT on the highway, we were enthralled by a Modena (I think), but anyway, it was a red Ferarri.

I had this pang to test the car so I instigated Eugene to drive close enough to the Ferrari to 'test' the acceleration power of the car so we can both smell its smoke and eat its dust, with honor. LOL.

I mean, for the heck of it, why not. After all, how many times in a life time do people do things like provoking a Ferrari?

LOL. LOL.

So we went at 190kmph, back to back with the Ferrari.

I think it was an Unlce driving, because when we finally thought we got it provoked and could enjoy watching the machine speed off and leave us with just sigh of how fabulous the car is, just in a distance of 100 metres apart between Ferrari and us, the driver braked and slowed down. He continued driving his Sunday driving pace. !!!

Awwwww!!! Common. Ferraris can do better than this. We really wanted to see it accelerate and we really wanted to smell its smoke.

What a disappointment really!!!

And we went again tailing the Ferrari for a good 500 metres which then we had to turn over to the BKT junction.

Sigh.

Uncle, if you happen to bump into my blog and reading this, I just want to let you know you are driving one of the ultimate driving machine ever built for mankind. And you are one of the lucky being who could afford that car. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO, for Heaven's sake, drive the machine. It is built to be driven. Please don't insult the car with the Sunday driving or for the sake of owning a Ferrari just to prove a point to whoever you wanted to. It's over. Proving days should long be over for you SO, PLEASE, I urge you, drive like a man who owns a Ferrari! BUT if you think you don't have the guts, er, can you please lend me? Just for half a day. I have got several highways to test its power on. You'll be the most charitable person *grin*...

Well, so much for our adventure with a Ferrari... wait, wait till I get my Cayman, we'll test power again won't we? LOLOL...

Sigh... another passion... LOLOL... another adrenalin pump but what a let down. It's just as you are about to height on the orgasm and someone just had to kill it... LOL. Just kill it. Mega kill joy... LOL.
And just as anyone is wondering what's so great about Copic, here I present you my very first illustration... tadah... ps: a little dissapointed with my camera or rather my snapping skills, the color ain't that vibrant as the real thing tho *grimace*
