The Event Of December 31st, 2008...



OK, I'm actually still in a state of shock after what had happened to hubby and me in the afternoon of New Year's Eve... I'll elaborate more on the incident...

December 31st...

Woke up pretty early in the morning (about 9 plus) coz I need to be ready for my jab appointment at the KK Women's and Children's Hospital before I start work at 2pm later on... Hubby's gonna be the one to send me there and while waiting for him, I brought little Asil for a little stroll down at the void deck...

Once hubby arrived, we headed back home to send little Asil up before driving to the hospital... Instead of riding his bike, hubby decided to drive us to there... So yeap... We hopped into our car and drove off to our appointed destination...

Everything went smoothly, from my jab to our lunch and to the part where we had a discussion on my blogshop thingy (Yes!! I'm gonna be opening my blogshop soon. Insya'allah... Still need some brushing up to do... So you guys watch out for it ya!!) then while driving along Upper Thomson Road towards Yishun, there's this bloody freak woman driver in front of our vehicle, who, all of a sudden, did an emergency brake in the middle of the road!! Hubby managed to pull his emergency brake in time in order not to hit the back of the woman's car... I mean, we managed to pull a brake but we're just inches away from her car... And, just as we thought it's OK, there's this freaking other car with this freak man driver, who, in like a split second, hit our car from the back... I tell you, the impact... it's shocking!! I was screaming my lungs out man!! We're just glad we had our saftey seat belts on... Alhamdulillah nothing happened to us... But the CARRRRRRRR... OMFG!! Our CARRRRRR... It got so freaking distorted... Boo hoo hoo... I was so not happy about the hit and all... Thank god I had my digicam with me everywhere I go and I managed to take a few pics of the dent marks on all 3 cars... Our car being in the middle, got the most hit... Sheesh... Curse that women and her e-break!! Bloody hell!! And that guy whose car hit the ass of my car!! You freaking people... Urghhh!! I thank god that I didn't have my babies tagging along with me... Imagine what would happened to them if they were to tag along... Subhanallah!! Syukur Ya Allah!! My babies weren't with us when it happened...

So here comes the best part...

The freaking woman decided to make a big 'hoo-haa' and expected us to pay for the damaged done to her CAR!! Freaking hell!! By then I was so feeling pissed already but hubby was keeping himself cool and simply listened to whatever crap that woman said... My temper was already on the verge of blowing up... You know, the hit impact, the damages to my car, the pain I got from my jab, the stress coming from doing my month-end closing later in the office and now this big hoo-haa crap?! Halo!! Your freaking car isn't the only car who got distorted!! Mine too!! And ours was worst!! Ours was hit both front and back!!

Me (trying to control my anger), "What? You expect us to pay your damages in cash?"

She (looking so 'ya-ya'), "Ya, because you hit my car that's why you have to pay lor..."

Me (already about to blow off), "You freakingly did an emergency brake in the middle of the freaking road!! My husband saw what you did and immediately, he did an emergency brake too!! We didn't even hit your car although we were just inches away from it!! Our car hit yours only when the back car hit ours!! And why on earth are you doing an emergency brake in the middle of the freaking lane?!!"

She (trying to act blur), "I had no choice lor, the car infront of me did an e-brake so I also did an e-brake lor..."

Me (freakingly pissed already), "What!! You had no choice!! What about us!! What choice do we have when the impact from the back car had also made an impact on yours!! And where's your so-called front car?!! Hey!! We didn't hit your car not until the freaking man driver hit us from behind!!"

Hubby (playing himself cool and talking to the woman), "OK nevermind, you give me your contact number and later I will contact you."

Me (frowning at him for interrupting my arguement with the woman), "Ape!! Nak call diyebalek?!!"

Hubby (ushing me towards our car), "Tak pe, kite relax dulu... Masok dalam kreta nanti bole bual..."

As for the the man driver who hit our car from behind, we managed to negotiate with him and decided to let our car insurance company handle the matter for us...

So we sent to our car to the nearest workshop that had been appointed to deal with our car accident and insurance claim... Guess what? It happened to be Cheng Hoe Motor Services!! The workshop that my workplace had appointed to deal with all our company's vehicle accident and insurance claim too!! Alhamdulillah!! Woo hoo!! We're pretty lucky coz I know the staffs there and they are happy to assist me anytime and anywhere... hee hee... (Thanks June for your kind assistance!! You really helped us a lot!! And the car you rented to us? The car's great too!! Kreta baru u!!)

As for the woman and me, we both had come to a conclusion of getting everything done thru our respective insurance agent... NO CASH INVOLVED!!

I ended up starting work late... Arrived in the office at about 4 plus in the late afternoon... (Thanks Baba for sending Ummi to work!!) And ended up doing my month-end closing of account till 8 plus in the evening... pfft...

After that hubby came to fetch me with the babies, my mom and bro Adam tagging along coz aunt Mama Yang and family had organized a barbeque at the Down Town East Pasir Ris NTUC Chalet. So yeap, hubby dropped us off there before making his move towards Hougang for his class...

Almost everyone's at the chalet... No pictures taken coz I left my digicam in the office in a rush of leaving the place... pfft... So I decided to use cousin Lala's photo shots instead... hee hee... (La!! Aku amek gamba kau siket ye... Maceh!! Mmmmuah!!)

OK, photos via SLIDE...

[Oh!! And to my bro Alep girlfriend, Khat MEOW - Thanks for your opinion on the lappy thingy... Perhaps I'll consider... I've got one lappy in mind though. It's ACER ASPIRE 4395. ;)]
