Draamaaaas


Of the train system here once again.

As I walking towards the station, I saw hordes of people milling around the top. There’s where you stare on the screen to see when the train arrives and which platform to go to.

I went “ Oh oh”

You see the morning trains to the city alternates between platform 1 and 3. And to get from one side to another you have to go up the ramp, cross the bridge, then down another ramp.

Not a big deal you say.

Now now imagine this:
You look at the screen, the time indicates that trains are delay. It’s 7:56 but yet it stating the 7:49 trains will arrive in 7 minutes on platform 3.

Oooo kay so you proceed to platform 3, walk down the ramp happily (not really it’s is bloody 7:56 in the morning) and wait hopefully 7 minutes.

Suddenly at the corner of your eye you notice across platform 1, a bunch of people have ascend to platform.. and in a hurry too. Everyone around you at platform 3 wonders with bewildment and realise “ Dammit platform 3 train is not arriving first, platform 1 is!”

Before you can decide should you attempt to run there (that means up the ramp, cross the bridge and down the ramp), the train has come and go.

Fine so you wait patiently at platform 3 but at the same time keep an eye at platform.

Shortly you see people from the top walking towards platform 3, you stay you ground knowingly the train is bound to arrive at platform 3.

But wait noooo… do I see people walking down to platform 1? Ooo I see the train approaching.

Now this time you are not taking any chances, you along with a bunch of other communters, the young, the old, quickly rush towards the other platform.

Much to your dismay… (and panting your heart out!) you can’t even get into any coach.

It’s chockers (pack like sardine aussie slang way).

Everyone groans and grumble. It’s already 8:20. You are going to be late no doubt about it.

Now you wonder, should I stay at platform 1? Or walk/run to platform 3? You trudgling walk up the ramp to the bridge to look at the screen of doom.

It says platform 3, train arriving in 5 minutes. And it’s an express! Non stop till your destination.

You think “ Sigh, fine fine”

The connex wardens/guards/official/idiioots present at the time doesn’t seem to know what going on.

GUESS WHAT!

On platform 3, the train does arrives but then…

IT WENT PAST US!

It didn’t bloody stop even thought it was suppose to.

By now I was ready to kill somebody. I was already sweating in my suit running here and there.

And groaaann again you see people running to platform 1 and this time you don’t event care.

You run (I have too it was 8:30 already), push away the group of school kids that just embark the train. Shove the old and the young.

Just to bag a squash position in the cramp train.

And it’s not even an express!!!

Ahh.. the woes of carless me.

Bits here and there


EDIT: I'M GOING TO PERTH!!!

This Friday! For the long weekend! For only 3 days! Cam berbazir jer kan. Dahler 4 jam flight, pas tu tiket mahal.

The reason is because my ma will be there. She will be visiting my aunty and cousin currently holidaying there for a month hence the both fo us meeting halfway.

Sadly my bros can’t join her nevertheless It’s still great I’m hanging out with ma.

Next month , I will be flying to Singapore pulak. For only 5 days! Cam berbazir jerk an. Dahler 7 jam flgith, pas tu tiket mahal!

De Ja vu anyone?

The reason this time is because my girls will be there. We are celebrating a newly married bestie birthday that has moved to Singapore with her hubby. So 5 girls (minus 1 who has exam PLUS 2 husband and a child) will be creating chaos over there for the weekend.

AND THEN…

We might be jetting off to Strabroke Island in Queensland to celebrate My man’s grandpa’s 80th Birthday! Yes not only his grandparents are alive, they both are truly kickin’ around. Doing healthy and well.

My man even still has his second grandma still around!

Me, I am a granddaughter orphan….

Where is all this money coming from? Where! Where!

This half of the year is so jam packed with events, travels, activities, goals.. I am searching for weekend just to laze around not do anything! Lay on the couch, read a book, watch sitcoms and just pig out.
