Who on earth discover oil can make things move in the first place? If they didn't then probably people will find ways for things to move using water or something. Then we don't have to bother about oil prices becoming RM2.70 per litre and the domino effect that will be felt very soon. Sigh!
Now my 40 litre fuel capacity car will cost RM108 to fill its tank as compared to RM76.80 before. That's RM31.20 extra every time I refuel. Refuel five times in a month, I have to fork out an extra RM156. Phewww... Consider the prices of everything that will go up, I estimated I'll need RM300-RM400 extra per month if I maintain my current lifestyle.
Nowadays normally hubby dropped me off to work so we only use 1 car and save a bit on tol, parking and petrol. Probably both of us should now consider the LRT. It costs only RM2.40 one way and parking at the LRT is RM2 per day. That's only about RM130-RM150 per month. We got to do brisk walking from the LRT to office and get the much needed exercise. Hubby has to walk much further though.
It's OK in the morning but after work, when you're already tired with office work, the thought of walking and lugging your notebook around doesn't sound very attractive. Even more so when it rains. Hmmmm... how abang?
And of course no more eating out. A simple dinner would be half portion of rice (rice price has gone up too), boiled vegetable (healthier than fried), and steam or grilled fish, or chicken soup. I know you prefer asam pedas and curry but I have to prepare something fast and not so fussy after that tiring LRT ride :) OK yer!

Sunflower gives the connotation of cheerfulness, bright, jolly, merry... you get the idea! However, if any content in this blog didn't fit the cheerfulness implied by its name, look at it this way... I'm putting down all the wretchedness, gloom, melancholy feeling in here so I can continue living up to the expectation of making the association to the sunflower.
