Rapid KL
Wednesday, June 29, 2005
Just to calm those roaring hearts.... my next skin will be published this coming sunday sharp at 12 o'clock following my clock of course. This Sunday is 3rd of July ok. Eh it's Anderson's birthday.
If U people don't know. I'll tell U guys how I come back from college. I take our country's beloved RAPID KL which I can assure is not as rapid as U think it is.... though it can be pretty fast occasionally but generally it's kinda slow..... Well as U know, malaysian public transport can't really be trusted not even taxis.... LRT maybe. Here is a little summary on my travels on the BUS.
Times taken - 101 and counting
times went chasing after bus - 4 and counting
times missed bus - 3,4,5
times fell in bus - thank goodness nil....
times felt like a surfer in bus - er... almost everytime when the bus is packed
times bus ticket got checked - 2
times bus ran out of tickets - 2
times passenger fell asleep on U - it almost happened the other day..... but she woke up before she landed
times went up wrong bus - Oh MY GOODNESS... Impossible
times missed stop - heheh none
times skipped a bus - 1
Longest time spent waiting for a bus - 40 mins
well that's a little summary on my bus travels. here I have a little map of the street where the bus stop is.
At the row of shops
Green - McD's
DD- Dunkin Donuts
KFC- welll if U don't know..... KFC
Pizza - Pizza Hut
Blue - Starbucks
and the one being pointed by the red arrow is the bus stop.
I normally come out from the exit between starbucks and Pizza Hut . The exit is the one in orangey red. But occasionally I appear at the McD's end.... The Rapid KL comes from the McD's side to the bus stop opposite Starbucks. Two times I chased the bus from McD's to Starbucks. twice lucky. The other 2 times were quite near. 3/4 times I missed the bus by a fragtion of a second. I turn the corner from strabucks and the bus turns another corner heading for HOME.
Today I had some brilliant idea in skipping a bus which was jam packed till the doors of the bus couldn't close.... wise choice I feel though I already waited for the darn bus to come for like 40mins. but it's ok I wasn't in a rush anyway. The next one came in 20mins. and the one after me probably came 10 mins after I went up mine. *why U ask? cause when I came down at my stop, the other bus was right behind......*
Today I met some pretty idiotic dude. He like me chose to skip the first one I think. We got up the 2nd one. we were pretty much standing near the stairs , he was the last to get up the bus but he cleverly forced himself through to grab hold of a perfectly nice bar. while the poor me had to hold on to the money collecting machine. Actually I had a pretty nice feel of bar before that but oh no my stupid senses a lot the dude to cram in and puch me out of bar's way..... Grrrr
The longest tiem I needed to reach home is 1 1/2 hours. both occured after LAN classes. one was today and another a couple weeks ago. basically getting home slightly late has it's benefits. I get to watch the night sky fall into place and the the sun setting beautifully betwwen the tall towers and the sky change it's hue to a crimson red while the blueness of the sky is loss in the reddish fluffy clouds. Ahhh wat a sight to behold.
Oh today when I was riding the bus I felt a little odd. as U know, when U stand in public transportations U need to stabilize urself properly. S there I was bending my knee when I felt like a surfer dude. moving my weight from the left then the right then a little to the front with my hand pointing outwards stabilizing the whole board. hehehhe wierd I know. The moved back a little when the bus was stopping then the bus got crowded again and surfer dude ended her career.
Hey the plus side on sitting the bus is....... I get to see Charmaine Sheh's picture 5 times a week. specially posing for the passerbys at Terimee. Heheheheh. Oh I get to see people's different ways of sleeping though I haven't seen any special poses since Charles Wilbur's. wahahah
And U actually notice when people's office hours end and where most people get up and down.
Well that's pretty much it..... I wanted to put a pic of a surfer dude but it's alittle late. Oh excuse me for my drawing as well.
