I finally received a letter from the Traffic Police. I got a ticket a few days ago because I parked along the road outside Tiong Bahru Plaza to return a DVD. It was supposed to take 2mins but this couple in front of me too extremely long to rent one DVD. So I jinxed myself by saying 'If I get a ticket, I'm making you (the couple) pay for it.'

Well, I got a hell of a ticket that cost me 3 demerit points for parking in a 'zebra controlled area'. And it said that the offence can be compounded for $120. I have no idea what that all means and I've got some research to do.

It's quite ridiculous. I can't remember the markings on the road but if I didn't remember it wrongly, it was double yellow. And I'm very sure that parking along the double yellow line doesn't carry such a heavy penalty right?

I usually don't get a ticket, but when I do, the penalty is quite bad. Shit...

Today is one of those bad days where everything seems 10 times worse than it actually is. I finally figured out what I'm going to do with my life, but there's a major roadblock. It's not as easy as I thought it was. I'm either going to take awhile to get to where I want to be, or I won't be able to get there at all. I don't mind taking awhile to get there, but the wait and not knowing what the outcome will be is scary. Where I go and what I decide to do all depends on one phone call, which I can only make tomorrow.

The waiting kills...
