Currently, Akmal and I are using only one car.
We are sharing his red Proton Saga.
I returned the Kelisa I've been using since my A-Level years to mum, and now my sister is using it for her class.
The plus point, I don't have to pay for a car loan.
The minus point (but can also be the plus point), we always have to take turns to use the car.
Say...I work a morning shift (until 5pm) but Akmal works long shift (until 10pm), which means I will drive the car home at 5pm and come back to the hospital to fetch Akmal at 10pm. If he finishes his work late (which is usually the case), I will need to wait until he finished his work.
The same goes if I work a long shift and he morning.
If we have two cars - one of each (I've always fancied a Honda Jazz :-D), I can go home at 5pm and perhaps cook dinner while waiting for dear husband to come home.
But, if we have two cars that means in the morning both of us have to drive off separately.
We wake up at the same time, go down the apartment at the same time but drives off separately and look for a parking space separately. Not only it takes the already limited parking spaces but that will also mean Akmal and I will have less time together.
The journeys to and fro work are the time where we update each other - considering the busy schedule we have as house officers*.
I can't imagine having to drive to work separately.
So maybe...I'll hold off my Honda Jazz for now.
I can't afford it yet, anyway
