tHE F.I.F.T.Y cents

Last day at coll before the final study break then T.H.E GRANDMOTHER OF ALL HORROR STORY... THE FINALS..

Woke up in a good mood, slept for more than 10 hours :D.. get dressed, drove to college.. normal daily routine thinge that.. i wouldn't want to bore you..Reached college, parked the car, walked to college, bump into mates, had lunch while discussing for a team name for the next competition coming...

Went to photocopy the entire semester's notes for Financial Planning, including tutorials, yea.. you may ask how i SURVIVED the whole 3months lecture without materials with me. Well, I'M BREATHING here.. HOW? one word.. SLACKED!!!

Went to lecture theater, got to know that the Islamic Banking talk is scheduled during the 1st hour of lecture rather than the last one hour of lecture.. D.R.E.A.D.S.. and ended up staying awake for 90minutes (Best personal time: Record for not sleeping at all) and to find out, that OUR SO CALLED LECTURE DIDN'T EVEN LAST FOR 15MINUTES..

GG.. Drove like 30minutes to reach college, lepaked like 2hrs to wait for lecture, USED my energy to stay awake for the talk.. and WHAT? lecture's 15minutes? Worst.. NO TIPS FOR FINALS? *faints*

as the clock ticks to 3pm... I checked my parking ticket, the time printed on the card was 11:11am. Each hour costs 50cents (RM)..

So i took my time, looking at my watch which is just 3, thinking that, i don't need 10minutes to walk to the car park. But i forgot the unavoidable. Bumping into mates and CHATTING NON STOP. Reached the lift at 3.05pm (and it is taking forever to come)

Now you must be thinking what am I all worried about. You see, i didn't want to waste 50cents for passing the time only by MINUTES.

Down the lift to G floor, looks at the time 3.08pm. 3minutes.. I breeze walked my way to the car park (taking into account, not trying to look as if i'm running like a mad cow) *Coughs* get into my car, speed to the counter (speeding in car park is about 40km) the driver in front of me took forever to retrieve his cash out for the ticket, and it seems that he's searching for coins.. (i pay for you la uncle, i'm late)

Then my turn, i took out RM3 handed over the ticket, asking the lady, have i passed the time. she said yea.. by 2MINUTES..

(&^(*&%)&)*(^)(}+_*+&*%&$(*&^)(&_*+^

so I gotta pay RM3?
she said "you look so worried"
I looked back and said 50cents is alot you know ..
She then say, oh its only RM2.50.

All happy, michelle thought she saved the 50 cents at the courtesy of the lady (thinking that she gave discount) she exited the car park, smiling brightly as ever.

Suddenly it struck her.. 2.50? is 5 hours? Now it's 3.. got 5 hours meh? She held up her left hand, counting, 11-12, 12-1, 1-2 2-3.. 4hrs only maaaa.. then meaning?

*&^%^&$&)*%*&$(*^&(*%(&^%)^*&)*%(&^(&^%*)%*)&%*&^$(&^%)&^)*%(%*%(

she paid that 50cents for that extra two minutes. After all the breeze walking (not fast,but hey?there's effort) and speeding and talking the lady to give discount. She happily PAID.. 2.50 thinking that she did get a discount when in the first place she paid for the unused 58minutes of parking time..

(^(*%(*&%_)*+)&#(*^%(^#_*$_%*#_(%_Q*#)%(&)#&()^*()*&_()&_)(&

conclusion?
Calculators make my brain STUPID...
