thirty dollars

ok, so that day i parked the town bee at a URA carpark and forgot to tear the parking coupons or whatever you call them. of course as is traditionally me, i realised too late (i was just metres away from my car) and i was unpleasantly unsurprised that stuck in my wipers was a receipt looking thing charging me $30 freaking dollars for my oversight. shit and i don't want to pay. now i need to cook up some excuse. maybe my tire was flat and i went to look for someone to help me change it? or i had a bad stomachache and had to rush to the toilet?

and unlike in the US where you can just escape to another state if you have too many unpaid fines, i can run to east coast but the police will still find me. argh.
