This is the perfect reason why I should bring my camera wherever I go.
Petrol price hike.
Gosh how I wished I had my camera when I was driving back from work. I passed so many petrol stations and ooooh, the queues leading to them were just so crazy! Hence causing a massive traffic congestion.
As you all have already known, the petrol price will increase by 78 sen effective midnight, from RM1.92 to RM2.70 per litre. That's going to make a big impact on my monthly budget and it includes sacrificing many of my favourite unnecessary things.
Anyway..
I attended an award ceremony last night to celebrate
some outstanding students sponsored by the organisation who sponsored my tertiary education. It was kinda silly for them to only invite the awardee without any guests allowed. So there I was, going to a function with no one I knew and had no idea what the agenda was like. Perfect moment to just go with the flow.
I couldn't help but notice that when Malaysians give a speech, the bit where the speaker addresses his audience is just neverending. I wished they say "Ladies and gentlemen" instead. Imagine that the speech alone took an hour of the night.
Eventually, I was on the stage shaking hands with the wife of some minister. Got my cert and a mystery gift which ended up being a neat looking watch! Happy me.
Conclusion, petrol price will rise. At midnight.
