O$P$
How the hell did I end up owing Tim so much money?!! US$3,000 to be exact. It is not as if I owed him money over a long period of time and simply refused to pay up. Everything just accumulated within a short span of 2 weeks. Let see what I owe him for:
- Car maintenance and repair: US$700
Labor is so darn expensive here. A change of just one tiny light bulb for the brake light cost a hefty 70 bucks. And then my car had been making this rattling sound for over a year. Turned out that the catalytic converter had already disintegrated. So changed it for around US$500. Had to change the coolant palange too cos it was leaking. Set me back by another 100-200 bucks.
- Car insurance - US$350
We have to renew our car insurance every half a year and each time it will set me back by a few hundred dollars. "Heart pain"
- March and April rental - US$900; and March utilities and telephone bills - US$60
Hmm....shouldn't the man be taking care of the household bills? Not only does he not give me " 家用", I still have to pay for my own share. WTH!
- Cruise - US$900
Yeah! Yeah! We are going for a Carribean cruise with Carnival Conquest in June! That will be right after our trip to Yellowstone!
- Tickets - US$110
Houston Rockets is on a winning streak. It's now at the top of the table for the Western Conference. We bought tix to the Celtic game for this coming Tuesday about one and half weeks ago for US$60 each. The tix face value is only
We caught the Houston Ballet - Cinderella today at the Wortham Center. It is a Cinderella story with a twist. Cinderella did not fall in love with the prince but got involved with the prince's secretary instead. The dance was captivating. It was the first time we watched ballet in Houston and the second time we were at Wortham Center. The first time was 2 years ago when we were there to watch Riverdance.
Hmm....never have I imagined that i will owe someone so much money before! *Gulp*
