Luck does matter, doesnt it?

Been having a rather peaceful night after the hangouts and movies the other nights...I decided to stay in yesternight simply because:

i) It was raining (and i prefer being IN than OUT on rainy nights)
ii) TAR6 (prime time) was on satellite
iii) I wanted to finish up the last few chapters of Beach House
iv) TAR3 (repeat) was on terrestrial
v) Malcolm in the middle on terrestrial

Yeah, i know, it is kinda sad when u hafta look forward to tv shows, u must b wondering: havent u better things to do?

The answer is NO, the benefits of staying home are beyond measures...i cud save a wholelot by not hanging out...Ive pondered bout this for some time, and calculated the cost...

a simple stroll with frens would easily cost me the green beast (rm50), and im not saying i bought anything...let's see, a meal could easily mean 30 (not paying for anyone), a cuppa at CB or SB comes at 12 ( still not buying anyone any drinks, which is kinda rare.. and no cakes...im estimating minimal cost here)....there u go, i shall exclude the ice-creams and desserts and snacks that come after the meal....taking into consideration petrol, tolls and parking fare...u'll have it..

And that's only a stroll im talking about...putting Shopping aside, Again....normally i would go for movies, or karaoke, or Bowling...that shd exceed my quota of 50...now u see why i voted to stay home?

My plans went on pretty well, i watched all the shows, i finished my book by James Patterson, and proceeded to read on 'To Kill a Mocking Bird' by Harper Lee...

Would love to share some thoughts on TAR6...i was delighted that our (fans from the official site) comments on improvement for TAR5 has been highlighted...i did voice out how unfair it is for one person to complete most of the roadblocks, like Chip, Colin, Brandon (TAR5), and Zach, John Vito (TAR3), Jon (TAR4)....

Yes, the male from the couple teams would be completing most of the roadblocks, which was in the disadvantage of both-female teams...and so, for this season, both team members would hafta complete equal share of roadblocks...now aint dat a good move? we want fair competition here...

Also, they have reduced the number of yields to three....and they imposed penalty to any teams that led other teams into disadvantage, like slowing them down....Don and Mary Jean pay the price for 'hijacking' Adam and rebecca's 4WD...perfect...

So it proceeded that sister team Lena and Kristy were eliminated out of sheer bad luck...can u believe it? she unrolled some hundred hays but still failed to retrieve the clue...i had wished they cud have stayed longer and let the wrestlers go instead....but u know, Luck is the name of the game, u cant control it...

The stronger teams (hayden and Aaron, Kris and Jon) are still in the lead, while the middle pack remained where they were...i would love to see the underdogs move up the rank, and i consider father-daughter team (Gus and Hera) and grandparents team (Don and Mary Jean) the underdogs...afterall, it is all about luck and not so much on physical and mental challenges...of coz, that's jz my two cents worth...
