I'm feeling good yesterday, watching the trees glooming like SPRING (see my last post below), finally received my plastic rug (I bought from TAWAU last Kamaatan Holiday for only RM18!!!) which my friend had been keeping it for 2 days coz my car is not big enough to carry it from TAWAU and of course I just got back from Tawau and the feeling of Holiday is still fresh in my head.
This is the plastic rug that I bought from Tawau, it's actually from Indon, so it is super cheap in Tawau. I don't have any pic, but if you go to the Pasar Tawau, people there buying this ALOT...like they wanna sell it!!!Sadly, this "happiness" didn't last long. Aroung 7.45pm last night, my housemate's sister call her up from Lahad Datu with the news that all the petrol station in there is jam pack with cars and motorists filling up their tank. I was surprised by the news; from what I read for the past few days, the government is planning to increase fuel prices by august; guess well all got P'UNK!!!
Cars queuing to fill in their tankI didn't waste anytime and get my car key and wallet and start driving to the nearest petrol station. Well, it no surprised that all the petrol station were pack with cars waiting their turn to get the last cheap price of fuel. I was in queue for an hour and a half for a distance that less than 1km to fill the petrol in my tank. In reality, the fuel price will go up; I suspect one day it will go to up to RM5 per liter, maybe higher, but it just nonsense to suddenly increase the price when the talk of the month was on august!
While in queue, my friend sms me and talk about we will never go out to eat alot now (like 'we' always do), no more cinema, no more shopping, even for window shopping and we all will live like an anti-social society... I'm afraid to say that she's right, the price of EVERYTHING eventually will increase and with the salary for average malaysian (private worker) that likely will NOT increase we must adapt a new lifestyle...Which is eat less, less entertainment and less traveling with car!
