Transport's Fair Play

Well well. Now that I am (sort of) in the working class and is taking the public transport everyday to work. Maybe I could just jot down some downs about it.

First you cannot control the time that the bus comes, sometime it comes late at times early. Ok I have to state usually +/- 10mins. Then there is the crowd that no one gives way. Then there are those that block the card scanner, the entrance/exit even the path between the two rows of seat. Then comes those the rush to alight or board not bothering about the safety of others. Like at the train station before those who want to alight can do some many have already rush/dash in. When there is not much space left and people are already standing at the door there will come this person who would push his way in no matter what.

During the trip some will lean against the grab poles. Weird rite? Grab Poles as the name states it we are suppose to grab them not lean on then and disallow others to grab it. Escalators also proved to be another killer point with some users not moving to the left side. Thus disallowing others to move up.

But I must say the most problematic is the "card in big bag therefore scanner cannot detect problem." I believe many of us have came about this problem more than once.

Here before I end I have to stress that the above problems happens only to maybe about 20%? of the total population travelling in public transport.

How to overcome them you might ask yourself (or me). "My sassy colleague" seems to have alot of ideas. But due to copyright laws I am unable to publish them here as I have not yet seek for her permission. (But "My sassy colleague" never reads blogs so even if I publish them here she will never know unless YOU, who is reading this betrays me. but as a good un-sassy colleague I will not do that.) As she may want to publish this into a book next time it is therefore unlikely that it will be granted. But keep your fingers crossed, hope for the best and wait patiently.

I can guarantee you that it will be well worth the wait......

Alone?

At times being only with oneself seems sad. But at times it seems the best thing to do. Ok. I must admit that so far my journey has been walked by only oneself. Till now I have yet to go double. So I cannot say for sure how does being together feels. But I think I somehow got used to it already. Movie, meal, shop, walk, see all done alone. Yes to those who say that being with someone does at times make the path seems smoother. I have yet to exprience it. Alone I feel issit that bad also. At least you have total control over your own time. Do your own stuff, no need for or responsiblity to anyone. Of course the door are not closed but maybe it is just ajar. This is something you cannot force upon. When your hand is poor what can you do? Like an old chinese saying. "If you two have fate even you are a thousand maile apart you can still meet if not even if you are neigbours you might not even meet. " Awaiting for FATE to do your stuff.

Choices in Life

There are many choices that we have to make in life. To step forward or not? To take up the deal or not? To ask or not? To forgive or not? Or to hate till death? Some choices may be be much of a great deal but some will affect us for life be it bad or good. To push you higher, lift you from your current state. Or to pull you down, coming back to haunt you.

At times some choices seem better then the other? Sometimes there seem so many choices that more one or less one do not seem to bother you. How some stands out while others just seem to blend in with the background. When there are so many will you even notice the smallest one that also seems to be the least eye catching?

Why present yourself then? If not to get noticed then might as well not be presented?

Choices. Somethings you just cannot avoid taking.
Choices. Somethings you will have to do everyday.
Choices. Somethings you can feel the effect one way or another.
Choices. Somethings you just cannot get help on and only rely on oneself.
Choices. Somethings you might feel that it is simple when it is not.
Choices. Somethings are just a mystery by itself...
