Yup, it's up to RM2.70 now, I know, I know...

Were you busy behaving like a cheapo yesterday evening after receiving the SMS that petrol prices would be taking a hike at midnight? I know I'd have been behaving like one if it had not been for the fact that I was too exhausted after an entire day's appointments.

If you've been living beyond your financial budget, you're probably feeling suicidal now. If you've been living just right within your budget, you're probably over your budget now. The only people who wouldn't be feeling too much of a pinch in seasons like this would be those who've exercised the discipline of living way below their means.

I went to the petrol station this morning - where the cars were frantically queuing up last night - and found they were desserted. I paid RM100 to have my tank three quarters filled up. And I got back a freaking change of RM3! Three bucks!

I need a bicycle.
