2 days and 1 night

No, it wasn't a holiday but I did had a chance to sleep on the tarmac pavement and gazed at the stars with Gulahati. Yes, it was so romantic trust me. Although the sky was clear and no stars to gaze at.

Before your mind start wondering elsewhere, let me just recap what happened last weekend.

Saturday evening Gulahati asked me whether I want to accompany him to an autoshow in Sepang. Being a newbie in this autoshow arena, without thinking twice I decided to go.

After all when else I do get to spend time with Gulahati? Normal movie routine, shopping and dinner date is starting to bore me out. So accompanying him to an autoshow is another variety of activities we could do to spend time together.

Tuners Fest 2010 Motorsport Festival in conjunction with MMER

The Merdeka Millennium Endurance (MME), the brainchild of the Sepang International Circuit Chairman, is one of the premier local Malaysian events with strong international recognitions. It has made its mark in the national’s motorsports history by being the first 12-hour endurance race organised and promoted by locals.

For the local motorsports enthusiasts, the MME is much awaited for every year since 2000. The 12 – hour endurance will definitely put the drivers’ skill, teams’ management and the machines to the limits. The team will have three drivers who will race for at least 70 minutes being before allowed to switch.

Registration ends at midnight. So to cut the story short we arrived around 11.30 pm at Sepang International Circut, SIC. Arrived and parked the faithful Mira, at the designated area and set up everything.


The real judgement is on Sunday, but was told to be there on Saturday night to make the event livelier and to support the MMER. So all we did on Saturday night was ate, chat, talk, giggle, and eat again with Gulahati and his friends.

By 3am I felt sleepy, went into the car and slept.

Actually it was very noisy, as the race was going on. But due to a very heavy eye plus I had an eyesore, all that was put aside and I just dozed off to sleep very peacefully. 

Very peaceful until 8 am the next day.

Woke up, changed into new clothes and try to look as if I bathe by rubbing perfume. Which I obviously didn't, hehe.

Anyway set up the place and off we went breakfast. Sadly to say all the Nasi Lemak was sold out and we ended up having A&W for breakfast. It's hard finding good food at SIC. Ate at the grandstand watching the race which was still on.

Trust me it wasn't a nice experience. I feel like vomiting back my Coney Dog due to the vibration of the cars passing by in my tummy and not to forget it vibrates through my throat or shall I emphasized larynx?

I don't get it whats the joy of watching a car race. How people would pay hundreds for grandstand tickets, might as well I use the money to buy myself a new bag.

Or sneakers.

Need to buy something for myself (hinting Gulahati for a shopping spree, since I know he is reading this, haha).

After breakfast, set up the car and waited for the judgement time. 

But it was so hot we decided to sit in the car instead enjoying the power of a Honda Jazz aircond. 

So breezy and cooling and I almost fell asleep. To kill time, decided to camwhore in the car with my crazy Gulahati.

So hot and I got burned

Yes, we are that bored and decided to fondle people's car

When things get a little bored in the car, Gulahati told me to go out and snap pictures so that I could blog about it and also so that he could have a collection of it too.

So I walked around and captured hundreds of pictures, these are a few of it. For more of the event coverage, please check out my Flickr online album as I don't want to crowd this whole post with pictures.  The link is on the left side of this blog.

Among few of the contestants

Gulahati, Abang Man and their cars.

Two happy guys and a palm tree

The judgement end around 2 pm or so. We head down for lunch after that at this Mak Cik stall, well to cut the story short her food sucks.

Okay now I'm like stuck what else to write... 

In conclusion, both Gulahati and Abang Man won something inclusive of cash and trophies.

We headed home straight after everything was over.

Well my day didn't just ended there.

Went home, washed up and finally bathe for the day. 

Around 8 pm Gulahati picked me up again and off we went to Sunway Pyramid to catch a movie.

I've been longing to watch Inception as I heard the review was superb. But due to only front seats left, we watched Tekken.

It was so boring, and should have watch Salt instead. I fell asleep through the movie. Not recommended for the females out there, even if you want to be sweet to accompany your guy who wants to watch Tekken, my advice is don't.

Went back home and did laundry.

Dozed off till this morning and woke up to the sound of sms from Gulahati.

What a weekend of fun I had, thanks to Gulahati I enjoyed my time at SIC very much.


Have a great week ahead everyone.

Sidenotes:
I think I lost weight, but yet to be prove. 

Need to find myself a weighing scale or go somewhere secluded to weigh myself.
