I've wronged you, SMRT

Pardon me when I said SMRT was like packed sardines, if I've ever said that. It's just that I don't know what packed sardines really was until last Sunday. It was a truly unique experience.

This thing happened after my Ma.lac.ca trip. I'll write about Ma.lac.ca trip next time when I have the photos and time to write.

At around 2pm, the Ma.lac.ca trip kakis sent me to Ma.lac.ca Sen.tr.al to buy bus ticket to make my way to K.L for work trip. But little did I know that the ticket could sold out so quickly. The best timing we could find was 730pm bus. I was supposed to reach there by 6pm. Then while asking counter to counter about the availability of the tickets, one taxi uncle was rounding up people to take his cab to the train station.

Then as usual, I never ask thing properly, so I took up his offer. And once he managed to find 4 pax, off we went to the train station.

All along, I thought the train station he's referring to was some K.L train station. Until when he reached the train station, he stopped the car and waited for us to alight. Apparently all the 4 of us onboard was staring blankly at him, and he looked back at us blurly too, and said, "KTM! Ini!" Or something like that.

Oh well... What to do... FYI, it was pouring heavily outside. I swiftly exited the cab, ran to the boot, picked up my barang barang, and ran into the K.T.M station. The counter queue was long, so I gey kiang time again (as usual) trying to find my own way to K.L.

Looking at the train route map, I was at Se.rem.ban (and I totally have no idea where the hell was that place), and K.L Sen.tr.al was 13 stops away. Saw an automated ticket vending machine, so book my ticket via there. Then I asked the usher/security guard/whoever nearby to confirm the train I gonna take was at the platform there.

Next suay part of the adventure. The gate only has 1 gantry in. A me.la.yu family was hogging the gantry. Apparently one of their tickets had some problem. Retry and retry and retry and... When it's finally my turn to go in.... THE BLOODY TRAIN WENT OFF!!! AND THE TRAIN STILL GOT LOTS OF SPACE! AND IT'S NOT PACKED!!!

Fine! Looking at the board, next train was coming in 15min time or so, so never mind, I'll wait. Then an announcement came, in me.la.yu, I don't understand but I saw the time on the board changed. Great. It was delayed. And this went on for a few more times. End up, The train came 1hr later. Bravo!

By the time the train came, the platform was already overcrowded. Everyone rushed into the train, and luckily I managed to get in too. Despite the train being full like what we saw on SMRT during rush hour, people still kept pushing their way in. Pack and pack and pack, until 80% of your surface are in contact with other people on the train. Nice eh? Luckily I scare troublesome, never buy any stuff from Ma.lac.ca. Or else I'm pretty sure they will all end up crushed.

Then this procedure of packing sardines continued for the next 12 stops until K.L Sen.tr.al. GG. At 730pm or so, I finally managed to reach K.L Sen.tr.al in one piece, with some scratches on my arms due to the squeezing out of the train.

When I got out of the train, I could feel my feet and legs totally sore. Stood for 3hrs with my heavy bag and heavy laptop, plus the fatigue from previous day.

This is quite stupid. The train was delayed because people kept trying to squeeze into the packed train, which often resulted in improper closing of the train doors. Thus the train doors had to open and close many many many times until they were all properly closed. Waste of time.

Next, concurrent entering and exiting of passengers. Come on lah! Don't be stupid can? You want to come into a fully packed train? Let people go out first to give up their space lah! You trying hard to squeeze in, people can't get out, you wasted that their time because they exceed their stop, AND less person can come in! TOTAL INEFFICIENCY! Waste of time x2.

Argh... Been there, done that. Fullstop. No more second time for me.

Horrifying Memories

Here I'm going to tell you an horrifying memory that happened when I was still a kid, perhaps K1/K2 or P1 already.

Disclaimer: The following post might cause nausea or involuntary ejection of part or all of the contents of the stomach through the mouth (aka vomitting). Proceed with care, especially if you like beancurd skin (tau ki).

Recently, don't know why, my mum starting to feed me with tau ki. You know those beancurd skin used to wrap ngoh hiong one? Ya, that one... She cooked it like once a week (last time very seldom, the most is add to soup or whatever nia), and my mixed vege rice oso got... Not that I don't eat them, not that I don't like them. It's just that whenever I eat them, a vision from the past just appear in my mind. And surprising I still managed to eat them up. =|

This is the happening.

It was during the time when I was still taking swimming classes. The coach told us to swim to and fro. Then on the trip back, I suddenly saw something floating around in the water ahead of me. Upon approaching, those stuff looked like flakes of tau ki. Disgusting, but I thought might be some normal rubbish that fell into the water or what, because it just a 2-3 pieces like that. So I swam on, without detouring much away from those flakes.

Then on the next few laps, I finally saw the "SOURCE" of the "rubbish". Another fellow student swimming in front of me was discharging these flakes out from his mouth. And this time round, the expelled particles were far more than what was floating around earlier. There was even a piece, that's like half of my palm size? Shucks. Those flakes were ACTUALLY vomit. -_- Of course this time I siam it at all cost!!!

$%^@%^@$$!$#%#%&%^#

Now you know the haunting past of mine whenever I eat tau ki. And I just had it. =|

Have a nice day.

Eat more tau ki.

Don't vomit in the pool.

Thank you.

Yet another emo song.

Well, this song not that emo to me (yet), but to a particular friend.

Getting lost in the midst of a busy life of today's society is nothing unusual. Many times, you may just stop and ponder, "What am I doing right now?" Okay, maybe you don't, but somtimes I do. What are we really trying to achieve?

=\

You may feel lost now, but don't despair! You still can find your way back to the path you were on. Even so, all paths will eventually lead to an end. It might not be bad to reach another end?

Like just what the lyric says, let it go and just enjoy the show. Walk on...

Lenka - The Show
(The official MV clip doesn't allow embedded object. Sucks)

Looking back...

Vitamin C - Graduation

Ages ago, this song was like "Oooooooo... Nice song [fullstop]". Then today I, by chance, heard it once again. This time the feel is so much different. The song actually has much more meaning in it.

It's not that last time I didn't pay much attention to the lyrics or what. It's just that the lyrics couldn't really apply to me during that time. Now they do. *emo emo emo*

So yeah, this song goes out to all my friends.
