Quickie - 26/5/2009

Phew. What a weekend. Though the crowd wasn't interested in whatever that we're doing at CAE or ED, the Karnival PROTON Bersama Rakyat was a fun experience. Partially due to the uniqueness of the crowd (non-Metropolitan types; different background and interest), but mostly what i experienced. Which brings me neatly on to the reason of why i dread travelling by bus. Sorry but i can't hold it in, i hate busses and i personally dislike the egoistic and insanely dangerous way the bus driver (we travelled by bus. Why? Don't ask me) drove with us and our stuff in it. Which begs the question; Haven't these people realized that the mercy of the passengers' lives are in their hands? Don't they know that even if they went into hiding from the authorities should their stupidity cause a fatal accident, will hunt them for the rest of their lives?

I could go on, but i don't want to remember it. This is the last. That's it. No more busses for me. Why this today and not yesterday? The DJs on the radio this morning plucked this topic for discussion (though their focus was on the public transportation system) and somehow, i got ticked. Again, i state my stand; i hate busses.

Oh, and i hate whoever is proposing that Chin Peng and his communist friends from the black Malaysian history be given the right to return 'home'. What home? They've got none here in Malaysia. And if they did in the past, then there's no more then, now adn forever. Politics or not, it just isn't right. Don't want to comment further, but i'm in the camp of against for this issue. Nobody in their right of mind would, and if someone did... then their mind isn't straight.

Sometimes these drivers of busses distracts the image it brings. Usually when you think of busses you think of the bright yellow ones that you used to be forced to ride on the way to school but not anymore. Although busses are still primarily focused on bringing transportation to a large number of people at a time, they are now shifting their attention to building busses made for luxury and style. They are comfortable and fun to ride and drive.

Thanks for the comment.
The bus in question is kinda like the tour buses you get anywhere else. Apart from ferrying tourist and people alike from their hotels to places of interest, these buses are also used as a transport for corporations in shifting their staffs (usually when there are quite a number of them needed) for events in Malaysia (near or far).
Not all the drivers suck though, but the one i experienced (as in the blog) just is.
