Ka-Ching ! $$$$$$$$

If you seen my FB status: From RM52 to RM420. If you wonder were these ammount of money represent, it's actually the charges of me fixing my car. How ridiculous can this be???! It's not even 100%! Okay let me calculate first.... Wah lau! It's 807.69%!! It's really f-ing ridiculous!

Well at first I asked the mechanic fella to check my BED's balancing and alignment, he told me the charges were RM52. I said okay, but I was holding a piece of 50 bank note in my hand, screw the 2 ringgit la. When it's done, the fella test drive my car and when he's back, I thought I was preparing to pay, but he came to me and said: ' Wah, lei gah cheh hou doh man tai aaaah.....' (Wah, your car got lotsa problems aaaah.....) And I was patiently listening, tried to understand what he was talking about... what bearing what nut what this what that..... And get to the main point. 'How much?' I asked. 'Four, five hundred like that...'. My mouth was literally opened BIG! I dropped my jaw kao kao le...... He saw my body language and he told me that if I don't fix my car, sooner or later the wheel of my car would just fly off while I'm driving, so it's very dangerous. Wow, I just drove from Taiping and back here KL on Monday. So, I'm lucky to be alive? I remembered my dad kena before, he was driving on the highway and the wheel of his car just came off! It was funny but think the other way...... It's super dangerous. I tak mau menjadi mangsa~

Yeap, in the end..... I was not charged in the labour charges and they waived the RM3.60 for me. But my BED is still in the sick mode, not in critical condition though..... Which means at least now I'm not in the dangerous state.

Kah Yee asked me to think of the bright side: Think of me buying my own life back with that amount of money, it's worth it. Hmmm.. Yea, probably. :)

Okays, life sucks because we spend more than we earned. Bye!
