Yea, this was something pretty funny, amusing, annoying, irksome and stupid which happened the other day. which would be Thursday.
So Wen Lian, Wei Ling and i were going home from College after Moral Studies. We just finished our moral sketch which is seriously funny, stupid and humiliating. but funny all the same. So we were walking towards KL Sentral, and you know that theres a main road which you have to cross. So we waited for the green pedestrian light. and when it did light up, all the expensive cars, trucks, bus, you name it were happily blocking our way. so as the OBVIOUSLY weaker group ie soft flesh and bones, we had to wait for them to clear off before we could cross the street.
By the time we got halfway, the green light turned red, we were crossing the second road. so, as humans and pedestrians, we should have the right of way to reach the other side safely, rite? WRONG! there was one seriously stupid motorcycle and car just drove. straight TOWARDS us. they were only a few metres form us and they just accelerated like that. How sure were they that we would cross the road in time that they wouldnt hit us? wat if we sudden;y stopped in the middle of the road. wat do they plan to do, drive off? thats Brickfields to you.
Then later, when Wen and i took the Kelana line, we ended waiting. in the LRT. for a LONG time. turns out one of the trains had some technical difficulties, so it disrupted the entire flow. Wen's friend, Sasha was in the faulty train, which was the one before us. Wen so happened called her. the we found out that our train was moving.. towards her stationary one! they were still in the station, and ours was minutes from hers! we could have crashed, but in the end, her train managed to pull out.
But it was funny to see Wen screaming into her phone, "Sasha, our train is coming towards yours! im telling you now, GET OUT OF THE TRAIN!! GET OUT, GET OUT!" we received
quite a number of stares..
Eventually, we met Sasha cos her train had to be evacuated. we somehow squashed into the tiny train with all the others. Everything was bothersome. It was hot, jam-packed and not nice at all. but it was still fun, strangely. we managed to get seats, which was a good thing esp since we dont know how long the train would be like that. It kept stopping at the stations for LONG periods of time, the longest being 30 MINS. i got a lot of angry calls from my parents.
TOTAL AMOUNT OF TIME IN THE LRT TRAIN: one and a half hours..
then later, i had to go to 7 Eleven to wait for my transport. but it was so hot that i went in too buy some water. when i went to pay for it, i had some trouble. i was holding a big, plastic flower that i needed for morel. then the cashier said to me-
CASHIER: eh, awakkan yang datang hari itu?
well, the reason she recognises me is only because i had brought the flower on Monday when i thought i was going o use it, which didnt.
ME: uh, ya.
CASHIER'S FREN: bunga ini betul ke?
ME: taklah, saya perlukan untuk persembahan dalam kolej.
CASHIER AND FREN: ohhhhhhh....
Then immediately after that, a woman next to me asked in chinese, "why did you need the flower for?" naturally, as a banana, wat do i say? since i understood her but didnt know how to reply, i answered back in english. then, she was like,"oh you dont know chinese, you are english educated?" being polite, i answered her questions. the WORST part was when she asked me, "ARE YOU CHINESE?" i dunno wat look i had on my face but i went, "no...."
Then later, while i was waiting, again, a butterfly came up to me. it was flying over my face, THEN it landed on the flower. and stayed there. it looked like it was gonna die soon, with its wings torn up and all. a young woman suddenly cam up to me and said, "hey you got a butterfly on your flower." and why, i had to answer back, "and the funny thing is that the flower isnt real." why.. it flew away though. and she said, "i think it knows now." and she was smoking. and the smoke was coming up to my face.
