money's gone with lesson learnt the hard way

My rants and here it goes...

my GOOD friend rented a car for the weekend for some silly reasons, so he offered to take us out for a ride. And not knowing the rules, he decided to head to Johor with five of us in the car.


So...


If you do know, our kind officer at the checkpoint don't allow so many people in the car.
Two of my friends had to alight and walk in.

The rented car has a tracking system and the company could just turn off and on the engine upon knowing that the car is getting out of Singapore.


what comes next...


The engine of the car was being turned off just when we were nearing the checkpoint and there was no way we could start the engine.
Tried pushing the car but because the wheels were locked, the car refused to budge.
The violation of the contract costed my dear friend $630 for the company to turn on the engine for us once again. An hefty sum indeed, for what could have be avoided in the first place!

Tell me how not to be mad when he was already being told what's not to be done under the contract.

:(:(:(:(:( 

Anyways... what's done cannot be undone, so no point getting mad at him for long. 

I'm a nice girl :P

We decided to just be good and stay in Singapore, do some activities that don't require much cash. 

WINDOW shopping at IKEA Tampines, 

Supper-ed at Swee Choon Dim Sum, 

and Mahjong at my place!
