excuse me... can move your butt or not?

Can't understand some people. They think you can squeeze through the door if they just moved a quarter an inch of their butt?!? So difficult meh? Just to move out and then come back into the MRT or the lift after that? Will die isit?

prisoner of love






平気な顔で嘘をついて
笑って 嫌気がさして
楽ばかりしようとしていた

ないものねだりブルース
皆安らぎを求めている
満ち足りてるのに奪い合う
愛の影を追っている

退屈な毎日が急に輝きだした
あなたが現れたあの日から
孤独でも辛くても平気だと思えた
I’m just a prisoner of love
Just a prisoner of love

病める時も健やかなる時も
嵐の日も晴れの日も共に歩もう

I’m gonna tell you the truth
人知れず辛い道を選ぶ
私を応援してくれる
あなただけを友と呼ぶ

強がりや欲張りが無意味になりました
あなたに愛されたあの日から
自由でもヨユウでも一人じゃ虚しいわ
I’m just a prisoner of love
Just a prisoner of love

Oh もう少しだよ
Don’t you give up
Oh 見捨てない 絶対に

残酷な現実が二人を引き裂けば
より一層強く惹かれ合う
いくらでもいくらでも頑張れる気がした
I’m just a prisoner of love
Just a prisoner of love

ありふれた日常が急に輝きだした
心を奪われたあの日から
孤独でも辛くても平気だと思えた
I’m just a prisoner of love
Just a prisoner of love

Stay with me, stay with me
My baby, say you love me
Stay with me, stay with me
一人にさせない

I realised... my ang moh bo ho.

train

Went home recently on 4th May. That was a day after the train derailed near Rahang (Seremban). Was at the train station at 720am and the KTM staff train will set off from Singapore but passengers will have to take bus from Tampin. Didn't think too much so just went in and waited for the train to set off.

That day my carriage was full of Indian tourists. Apparently their breakfast n lunch were provided by their tour agency. Anyway, there were some minor confusion when the staff inside the train said he's not sure whether we're changing to bus at Tampin or Gemas. Finally, they've decided to change train at Gemas.

It was chaotic once we reached Gemas. Didn't know what buses to take or where they'd go as no one could provide that information. We disembarked and walked towards the exit of Gemas station. There, the KTM staff said the buses are all ready but the driver went to grab a drink. The sun was hot and there we were, a train load of passengers standing in the hot sun, waiting for the drivers to come back. The buses.. man, if you know those rural areas school buses (cum factory buses). Lok lok kok kok! And the seats! It was like claustrophobic! Anyway, no choice. Got onto the bus and had to wait till they fill up all the seats. Once you're seated you basically can't move.. no aircond.. no air. I managed to get into the first bus but after travelling for 5 minutes, a girl went up to the driver and told him something. Next we knew, we were heading back towards the train station. Apparently, the girl left her certificates and impt docs inside the station's toilet. -_-'''

So, we waited for another 10 minutes for her to go down and find her certs. So after that began our ardous journey from Gemas to Seremban by bus. After 2 hours of travelling... suddenly there's a whiff of shitty smell. Apparently someone needs to go to the toilet. Man... so the bus driver turned into a petrol station and about 5 passengers went down for toilet break while the rest waited. We waited for about 10 mins for all passengers to finish their business. After that we travelled for another 1 hour before we reached Rahang.

Passed by the train wreck (it was still there on Sunday evening) and silently were thankful that I wasn't in that train. The train driver was killed in that accident. Traffic was slow along that stretch as the rescue teams, police etc were there to supervise/oversee the operation on how to clear the tracks.

Reached Seremban around 4plus and finally reached home at around 5pm. It took me 10 hours to reach home.

hot hot hot

Can you stand it? These few days is like living inside a furnace. Perhaps global warming has hit home.
