Lesson learnt

Was on my way to KL for the strategy meeting. As I just passed the traffic light in front of Summit (traffic jam), there's this police siren from behind, the car in front moved, and so did I. Next, I heard 'bang'... Gosh.. I knocked into him. I didn't noticed until I heard the sound. How could that be?

I went down, wondering how much should I pay him? I looked at his bumper, ok. The right hand side dropped, apart from that, it seems ok. Then, I looked at my own car. Oh.. NO!!!! Bonnet, bumper, head light. Can I still drive the car???

That guy asked how would I wanna settled? I said, let's go make a report. He doesn't want. OK. Then, I offered to pay him RM100, as it appeared to me really nothing much. Which he said, too little. I asked how much, he didn't answer. Then, the traffic police came and asked us to drive aside to settle or go to police station. Well, after some more talking.... which I learned my 1st lesson, settle everything at the scene before leaving.

So, I drove back (since the car is still drivable). Called dad, he was shocked. hmm... Well, I knew I will get lecture. And I text Ole and Michelle that I got into accident, without telling them how bad was bad, that I will be late to the Roller Coaster. I thanked God that no one was injured. Really thanked God.

At that moment, I learned my 2nd lesson: sleep/ sufficient rest is very important. Not only for health, for safety too. I must admit that I had been sleeping only about 3 hours for the past 2 - 3 weeks and my body is trying to send me signal. Gosh... God said rest on Sabbath, I should have obey that.

I got home. Mom asked me to call Eddy Kok if he knows any workshop. Thank God for his help. I managed to get the car fixed within 1 day.

Of course, I went back to KL for meeting, to start the Roller Coaster. Well, I must say that I couldn't concentrate as there were so many phone calls to settle about the car thingy. I really thank ba and Eddy Kok for helping.

At that very same night, there's a show of Mama Mia which Karim and Sherine did invite me to go. Though I really very much would like to go, don't think so especially had the accident in the morning and ba was helping to get the car fixed. There are things in life where we need to give priority to.

Then, the guy that I hit into was kind enough to drove the car to fix in Seremban too.

So, altogether, I paid about RM1.5k for the entire experience. It's definitely a very expensive experience.

Rest.. rest... rest... I am telling myself to rest though I still think that sleeping can be a waste of time. I do know that my body is giving alarm as there are times that when I drove, I just couldn't focus which is super dangerous.

Still, slowly, I need to adjust myself back to normal lifestyle. Sleeping/ resting is IMPORTANT!!!
