To Hybrid or Not?
The word "HYBRID" is very catchy nowadays in the motoring world in Malaysia. As a new generation tech-embracing Malaysia, I would ask, how feasible is it to own a Hybrid car in Malaysia?
Currently, there are 3 types of Hybrid cars that are available to the masses in Malaysia, Toyota's Prius, Honda's Civic Hybrid and Honda's Insight. I'll skip the engine details and such as you can google it yourself. What concerns me most is how much will I be spending on running a Hybrid car, in terms of petrol costs. As you know, Malaysia's petrol prices are escalating on a quarterly/often basis, I won't be surprise that someday, it will someday reach a level that most people here find it hard to run a car. As the fact that Malaysia public transport sucks big time. Anyway, enough of the whining.
Prius consumption is 5.6L per 100KM, Civic is 5.5-6.5L per 100KM whereas Insight is 6.2L per 100KM. So if based on the current price of the Ron 95 fuel that most petrol station are selling.
Prius will costs 10.08 to run 100km, Civic 9.90-11.70 and Insight 11.16. So it makes out that for every KM, it will costs your 0.108, 0.099-0.117 and 0.112 respectively.
Taking the above numbers and compare it to my Myvi 1.3 EZi, which I can get 13.3Km per litre of petrol. So the average I can get on a 30L is about 400KM. It calculated out that for 100KM I'll need about 7.52L of petrol which will costs me about 13.53 .
So...just based on the rough figures that I compute above, it seems that for every 100km, I can save at least 2 ringgit and above. And from my current usage of my car, I can save above 40.00 ringgit per month.....interesting it seems.........but consider that fact that Hybrid card needs to change their battery every certain amount of mileage done or number of years, the savings might not just be able to cover the batter changes itself.
The prices of these battery ranges from 7K-15K.....so I don't think I want to embrace Hybrid cars as of now.

How Rare
How often do you find 4 people, from the same house, took the same plane to the same place, doing the same thing?
I think they should get 4 message chairs (^_^)

Aaden’s Penchant
My son had a very weird penchant. That is to hide behind clothes displays.
I don’t know why, but he seems to be enjoying in his own world.

The Busy Me
It's been 2 months since I had last written on this puny blog of mine. These 2 months had been freaking busy. Studying, working, activities with my family. And it takes a lot of planning to revolve around these 3 things at the same time.
I used to have so much time that I could have, then since start of November, everything just turned around. I think this is due mainly to the course that I had enrolled. Work is still the same, increased work load, same old pay, but this is the common complain that almost everyone has around the world.
The son is getting naughtier everyday. He screams whenever he is excited or wants something. He is taking small steps nowadays. He play soccer with the rubber ball I bought him. Kid's nowadays.....they grew up so fast. Sometimes he is so annoying that I wished he was the same old baby when he was first born.
The study part. Some would ask why now? Well, it's like filling up a puzzle of my life with a missing piece which I had missed earlier. It is not easy to go back to class after 16 years. The anxiety, the fear will be there. I had to find my way around these. Luckily my wife has been very supportive all these while. Anyway, after I had get my hands on that elusive paper, I will be going places. Singapore, China, Australia. Wherever I wanted to go (^^)
So now let's keep my fingers crossed that I can finished my studies without much problems.
