back on the road again...

i was late for school today! it was ridiculous, how i ended up late. i live so near, and i left home at 715am for my 830am lesson. i usually take the 172 bus from my house to the NTU exit, after which i'll cross the road to take 199 into NTU. so, i reached the bus stop at the NTU exit at 750. pretty usual. and then, while crossing the road halfway, TWO DOUBLE-DECKED 199 reached the 199 stop....and didnt wait for us and turned into NTU.
for those who dont take 199, double-decked 199 is rare and almost never before, two buses came at a time. furthermore, 199 service is slow like a tortoise. bus drivers would mostly wait for us, if they're already at the stop and they see students (it's quite easy to identify students) crossing the road from the 172 bus stop. so, after the 2 double decked buses, the next bus came 25mins later, at 815!!! by then, the bus stop was already fully packed. and guess what, one measly SINGLE DECK bus came. and since it came from the interchange, it was already fully packed with students. so i couldnt board. more students arrived at the bus stop. another fully packed single deck 199 came few mins later. couldnt board again. so i finally shared a cab with 4 other girls. that's not all. we gave cab uncle directions. then when we said he could stop at this place, he went on driving further up. though it's a short distance further up by car, on foot, i had to climb the monster south spine stairs and walk to LT20 which is quite a distance. worse still, i havent had breakfast. made me so grumpy in the morning.

ahh today at cbc lecture, cariann and i were like fighting for life!! becuase........ some stupid asshole(literally) keeps farting and farting and it was super smelly. worse still, there was some guy sitting next to me, and his breath stinks. everytime i heard him sigh or talk to the person next to him, i can smell his stinky breath. cariann and i were covering our noses with our jackets the whole 1hr we were there. we left the lecture after an hour because we simply cannot take the pungent smell anymore. okay i admit it was also because we were to lazy to sit through the whole thing.
