So it comes to this

I had been waiting patiently for the Big Day Out 2010 organisers to announce the line-up and I have to say that I wasn't disappointed. Things can never go wrong with Muse as the main headliner.

So anyone who knows me knows how dying I was to be a part of the BDO 2010 because I couldn't make it to the BDO 2009. I'm sad to say that I can't make it too next year because the prices of everything; the flight tickets, car rental, accommodation, food; just about everything is digging a hole in my wallet. I can't simply afford it. Plus, there's a big possibility that my family will be going on a holiday this December.

Let's look at the math shall we?

BDO '10 ticket = AUD 140 + booking fee = RM 450 ( +/-)
Return flight tickets = RM 2,150 (+/-)
Accommodation (for a week) = RM 1, 800 (+/-)
Car rental ( for 5 days) = RM 400 (+/-)

=RM 4, 800 (+/-)

And that my dear, doesn't include food. Even if I scratch out the car rental part, it would still be more than RM 4, 000. And I don't think those 25 acts are worth it.

Now I just have to wait for BDO '11 instead.

My aunt has a friend who's living in Melbourne. And return air ticket going to Melbourne with Air Asia does not even reach RM 2,000.00. Tolak banyak tak if like that? Hehehehe.

Accommodation + food = aunt's friend, remember?

Last time I checked, around RM 1,750.
