What's My Car

I have been driving my very first car since 2007. It’s a Chevrolet Equinox year 2006. I got it because of it’s size. I feel good with American cars too. I don’t want a standard size. This was agreed upon by my partner which he strongly advice that I should get this big because he was thinking forward about possibilities of me getting hit very badly in an accident. The car size is perfect. It has room. If by no means things could happen unexpectedly, the size of the car could probably save me for big damages physically and emotionally. It’s not too small and not too big.

Since driving it for 4 years I don’t have big issues with running it. Actually, it’s been doing pretty good. I of course intend to get the car well maintained from changing oil and never get the gas tank dry up. The only concern that I had was the check engine light due to gas cap issue. I bought a different gas cap where you could lock it up. These days you need one to prevent from getting rob. But I guess the vehicle won’t like it. It will light up if I will not use the original cap. Recently, I tried it one more time but this time I made sure I have the original cap handy but just put it in the same compartment. Luckily, the check engine light never comes on. It might be working this time. I am crossing my fingers.

Since this has been the issue for my car, I searched online using repairpal and see other customer who’s driving the same car as mine. It’s good to know that my model doesn’t really have that big issue and just the gas cap problem is just nothing to compare with other vehicle. So far, it’s been doing great and I like the performance.

Irritating Smell

I worked with a good healthy feeling. I was sick with headache last night. I can't forcedly open my eyes because I was hurting with pain. I guess I strained my eyes from the recent trip I had. Right after the day of arrival, get back to work back to the normal time which haven't adjusted due to the time difference. I guess what triggers my headache was the broken air conditioning system. There was a roof replacement that was going on with the past few weeks. Maybe out of that work, they had mistakenly touched part of the wire. We were there in the office feeling so hot. I had fanning myself with the papers I had in hand. It was so hot.

But today is another one story not far off from the illness. I still got an ache but not as troublesome like last night. It's just a mild and bearable pain. What caused it, is by this time with the asphalt smell from the roof top that the maintenance guys were doing. It was so terrible working with unhealthy atmosphere. The office isn't bad as you might thought in mind. The reason for all of this was the replacement of the roof. I hope they could get to finish it this week. I wanted to work better next week with a healthy body condition.
