On the first week itself, I learnt to get from one place to the other using my GPS. Well, I got lost while trying to go home. Yeah, and some of my housemates would never let me forget that. At the same time, I learnt about the importance of having a spare tire which has air and being observant.
So, there was this one time, my friends and I went out for dinner. We decided to try this Thai food somewhere which I can't quite recall the way to go there. I drove that day. I decided to use the flyover, not that there was anything wrong with it. As I was driving... I thought I heard something fell off. I remember that now.
I did not know what it was. I thought it was the petrol cover which came out which was not possible. I thought it was the car boot which wasn't properly closed. Or maybe, I just ran over something hard.I did not drive the next day. But I do somehow have a faint memory of seeing a round silver coloured thingy on the roads. It was around midnight when my housemate asked me if I noticed anything wrong with my car and I said, 'I don't think so.' I asked him instead, 'What did you see?' He told me that it seems like one of my car tires look darker than the other.
It was sort of like SPOT the DIFFERENCES! 1 point only. The only thing different is that instead of having two pictures in front of me, it was memory work. Then we noticed that one of my tire "rims" came out. It's not exactly rims, but for a Proton car, it's sort of like the cover for the tire. Thinking back about it now, that must have been the sound I heard.
We tried looking out for it the following day and we didn't see it. Thinking back about it now, I think it was because when I drive, I usually use the flyover whereas my friend would use an alternative route. Lesson to learn: Be observant, stay alert and take good care of things that have been entrusted to you. :)
Ohh, and for the record, nah... my friend wasn't that paranoid as in the picture. He was quiet through out the whole journey. :P
