Quickie trip to Low Yatt Plaza... by bus

Aoi-chan sure was frustrated when i suddenly decided to take the bus to KL today. Why? It's a Sunday, there was a big even going on in KL and most of the main roads are closed. But, surprise2... the road to the Golden Triangle of KL wasn't that congested. Now i kinda regret not taking Aoi-chan.

Anyhow, with a fare of RM1, i managed to get there fairly fast. But the journey on the bus takes me back to the days before i got my driving license. Although the route was almost the same, the roads and the surroundings have changes quite a lot. A few of the older buildings have been demolished to make way for development. How sad... history is lost *snap*, just like that.

After buying the intended items; blank DVDs (to burn watched Animes and unused data) and a thumbdrive, i headed home. It started raining, but luckily i managed to get to the bus stop just in time to take a shelter from it. It was on this part of the whole trip that made me realize just how important public transport is to the masses. Those who can't afford a personal vehicle, those who lives and work in the bus' routes, students, foreigners, etc... their lives typically depend on it.

However, i'd stick to Aoi-chan. Why? Forgetting the fact that the bus stop which i will disembark from the bus is quite a walk away from my house and it was raining, i reached home safe... and soaked.

Aoi-chan, gomendasai~~~ """(T _ T)"""

Traffic jam? I'd rather have strawberry jam...

The ITIS (i forgot what it stands for; Intelligent Traffic Information System perhaps?) telling me that the traffic will flow smoothly after a particular exit. It did, but the cause of the traffic jam was still unknown...

Had a 'seminar' last night, but had to meet up with a friend at his house first somewhere in Subang. As you might expect from the evening traffic, the Federal Highway was congested. But, after a long 1hr drive (which usually is a 15min blast in normal conditions), i found the cause of the traffic jam: Nothing.

This is the problem with our roads nowadays. People slow down when there's an accident that doesn't involve them or when it starts to drizzle, brake or slow down for nothing and hog the right lane when they are travelling slower than those on the left lanes. Here's my advice to all of you out there to ease our traffic congestion:
1. Don't hog the right lane is you can't drive right up to the 'legal' speed limit.
2. Be brave and minimize your use of brakes at not-so-sharp turns/bends.
3. Drive like normal even if it's raining cats and dogs. Your modern car and tyres combination can handle it.
4. If you like to stop and see an accident, get into one.
5. If you don't want to comply with any of the above, take the public transport.
