something happened to me this morning which never happened before in my 14 years of refueling the car..

got in the car this morning fuel tank indicated EMPTY! normal for a Monday morning..

stopped by Shell, where i always get my petrol and its the only station that i can collect Bonus Link points.. sucker right.. anyway, that's not the point. So i paid RM50 to get a full tank.. when the petrol was 2.70 p/ltr, RM50 doesn't go very far. Am i missing out on the fuel market cos the last time i checked, petrol now cost rm2.15, correct?

ok, when you are refueling, while holding the nozzle in one hand, where do you usually look? No 1 answer usually the meter counter right? 2nd probably the car next to you (or could be the hot looking driver..) 3rd? do you ever look at the nozzle? anyway, my story today is that my tank was overflowed with petrol..!!! it was pouring out from the tank.. kena kasut sikit. Tapi tengok meter it was still RM48++

i don't usually put the clip and let it fill itself. got an email when the petrol was rm2.70 saying that you'll get more petrol if you fill it slowly and not putting the clip on the nozzle.. been practising that since. tunggu lama tunggulah..asalkan dapat lebih.. (there's kiasu attitude in all of us right..).

back to my story.. panicked strike.. oh no!! there's petrol on my car flowing down to the wheels.. will it get on fire? i know any form of sparks will trigger it. Maklumlah..org perempuan..mana tahu sangat bab keta ni. but i got the attendant to pour water over it. will it work?

thanks to my friend who asked her 'Guys'.. the car won't get on fire because the minyak cepat kering.. they better be right! cos if the car do get on fire while i'm in it, this would be my last testimonial.. and you can tell my family what happened to me earlier this morning.
