| the woes of driving |
Its just day 1 of my first day as a full time driver and I have things to bitch about.
First things first - parking fees. I used to wonder why so many of my driver friends find parking so problematic, and why they find so many different ways to scrimp and save on parking fees. I used to wonder why, until today. PARKING FEES are equivalent to day light robbery! I spent almost 17 dollars on parking today - ATROCIOUS. Its so hard to get decent free parking these days. I am still mildly sore at losing my free, hard earned lot at Science this morning, and the high cost incurred for parking throughout the rest of the day did nothing to quell my annoyance at that.
Secondly, fuel costs. OMG, at two dollars per litre, petrol is now a literal pain in the ass. Petrol companies are now no different tobacco companies - evil blood sucking fiends who are just out to suck you dry. It hurts me to see the the fuel gauge dip by even the remotest amount each time I park at a (highly expensive) lot. Every drop, every single drop of fuel is MONEY, money burnt, never to be returned to the pocket. Whats more, it causes pollution, it harms the environment, and the smoke it produces causes us to develop cancer and turns our lungs black! If I were a Senator of the USA , I'll definitely campaign for finding alternative fuel - cheaper ones at that! THE WORLD HAS TO BE SAVED! And one day, I will save it!
On another note, I feel happy that I met up with Sebastian today and helped him with his application essay. I think we made good progress today. I hope his application goes smoothly, and that all the hard work we did today would pay off. Anyway, it was good stuff. I think I'll make a good communication director for some US politician or something - just like Kitty Walker from 'Brothers and Sisters'. Who knows? If the doctor thing doesn't work out, I could move to the US and like work as the communication director for some US Presidential candidate or something.
Alternatively, I could work for some gossip tabloid juicy magazine and aim to ruin the lives of others. That would totally work too!Labels: brothers and sisters, driving, friends |
