The Price of Char Kuey Teow
my car's injuries suffered from last weekend's accident would not be fixed, as my dad puts it (while dripping with sarcasm), because i should wait around for the next accident to happen and fix it all at one go.
simply preposterous!!!
so far, i have only managed to get myself into the strangest accidents with inanimate objects such as entangled to a rock and reversing into Joey's family car. so i was totally the victim when the lorry driver forgot to brake and crashed into my car. and its not the medium-sized kinda pick-up lorry, we're talking about huge truck here.
when i demanded compensation from the lorry driver, he showed his wallet which only contains RM151. feeling a bit sorry for him and not wanting to haggle anymore, i asked for 150 bucks. but he said he's delivering stocks all the way to Tanjung Malim, and he would not have any cash left to pay for the toll. even though i'm not exactly sure where Tg Malim is but it sure does sounds far. this poor guy has such a long drive ahead to work and i'm only heading out for a plate of char kuey teow. in the end i settled for a 100 bucks.
now that i think about it, i'm so darn stupid. the repair works would cost triple of what he compensated me and the accident wasn't even my fault to begin with! my head must have been impacted during crash as well.
p/s: i choked on the char kuey teow right after the car accident. a bone was stuck in my throat for a few hours before i finally managed to swallowed it down with a banana. definitely a very bad day.
