Balik kampung twice a week, interesting ...

Once I woke up in the morning, have to ensure nothing left behind again, unlike last Friday I dare to forgot house and car key. Not sure if it's bad but now it seems keys is the first thing strike my mind. Hopefully I will not forgot other things which I suppose remembered. Sign of aging ;)

Also my family will go SG with me tomorrow night and feel happy for that. For the first time they stay with me in SG for few days and let them know things I went thru here. During my lunch time, I went to Chinatown MRT station because it's one of the station with ticket counter where you can report or buy new Ezlink card.

I wanted to get Ezlink for kids but it seems for non S'porean can only enjoy up to 6 years old or you're schooling in SG otherwise you will need to get adult/normal Ezlink. Without much choice for me, I've purchased 2pcs @ $24. $12 each where $5 is credit and $7 is the card price. It seems more colourful and with plastic cover. I wonder if I can swap with my kids ;)



I arrived at train station around 9:50pm and found it's so pack and hot. Even the gate still not open yet. KTMB is just so unpredictable, like weather. Hopefully tonight will be a good one and no interruption puh lease ...


Once I went passed immigration at Tg Pagar, I can't see the train!!! Are they trying to perform magic here? Asked the conductor and they said will come in 10 mins ... hopefully, I think to myself. Luckily about 5 mins later, the train is here and the best thing is no light/aircond in all deck. Passengers were doubtful should they wait or go in.




You know human and especially some kiasu Singaporean they went in straight and keep complaining this and that. So late and no electricity. So dark and can't see, so hot no aircond. Malaysia mah ...

The first few sentences I can still take it but the very last words, "Malaysia mah". I was like, why so insulting when you're going to that country for vacation? No one ask you to get into the train in the first place.

I can understand they were delayed but just 10-15 mins different than usual. Also it's heavy rain and maybe the train drive slower especially they have accident lately. The best thing is they still pot pet pot pet until now and I guess there goes my sleep for tonight.

Dunno what's wrong with the train because normally they will leave the station latest by 10:45pm but this time is 11:35pm. It's going to be very late and hope will not reach KL at 8am. This is just left Tg Pagar and not count in Woodlands checkpoint and JB Sentral. Sigh
