BAD DAY - 30 APRIL 2008

Today, 30 April 2008 - I am going to remember it for a long time....not because it is the last day of tax returns *selalu diingatkan, e-filing memudahkan kerja*..eh...sorry, somebody's fault I am having this stupid song playing in my mind all the time..

Anyway, you tell me how such a bright and sunny *i can see clearly now....* (ARGH....why am i keep on hearing music in my head) day like today can have a bad start for me???

Woke up at the correct side of the bed this morning (a good start), showered, went down for a cup of milo, reminded myself to go down to work earlier cos car is running low on petrol......start the car, put on R, turn on the radio and pull the seat belt...pull once, pull twice, noticed that the seat belt is stucked. After few failed attempts, decided to drive FAST to Toyota for checking...

So, drove the car without any seat belt on (which is not very me) and at the same time looking around for any sign of mr policeman...so far so good....reached the highway and SHID!!! the jam was so long and unusual I was stucked there for at least an hour. Prayed so hard that the jam is not caused by accident or what, cos, if there is an accident, there definitely be a police, and if there is a police, he will definitely noticed that I don't have my seat belt on!

And as if the current situation is not bad enough, I suddenly realised that my car is running very very very low on petrol and I am still stucked in the middle of the highway with no way of doing detour....Again, I prayed real hard. I think God must be so frustrated to receive so many prayers intention from the same person early in the morning.

Anyway, to cut a long story short, things started to ease after half an hour....the jam, my car is still running and the best part, no policeman in sight.

Things got much more smoother after that. Pumped petrol (a very polite pump attendant even helped me to look at the stucked seatbelt but to no avail)...Drove down to Toyota and the technician attended to my request straightaway and to make things more pleasant, he managed to repair it for me without having to change the whole thing and FOC...FIRST TIME IN TOYOTA, SERVICE IS FOC!!! Woot

And everyone lives happily ever after...THE END

p/s Don't forget to submit your tax returns if you haven't done so...today is D-DAY..Dang! I have to pay additional RM450!

Gotta blog something before blogspot decides to close down my blog.


Anyway...since I have not been blogging for almost a month, i am going to do a very very random All-in-one post. One caution though - gonna put lots of photos, so it might hold up the downloading of page.


Check our what D gave me for my birthday. She gave me a year's membership card with Holiday Inn/Inter Continental Hotels which entitles me to discounts for meals and rooms. She is a member herself and guess got tired of me ranting about how I wish I could afford the membership and once a while would ask her to borrow me the card every once in a while. Thanks D for this wonderful gift and I will definitely make sure that your money is well spent.
