Singapore's very own olympic champions.

New blog, little things, can't really blame anyone, schedule was tight for me these few days, work etc etc.

Well last week i got a nice little part time job, from LTA i suppose, which was about a taxi survey, where you are suppose to take the arrival time of the passengers and the boarding time, and also the numbers of taxi on the stand every 5mins. 4 days in total, friday to monday, seng nang is seng nang la, but then it was boring! As my friend and i got a post in Chinatown, or you can say Havelock road, because it was just opposite the Subordinate Court.

So you can imagine i'm taking mrt during that 4 days, and something caught my attention, something which i'm so amazed by it so long ago, but do not have a place to put in down, but now i have! It is our Singapore's very own olympic champions, the 'aunties'.

Ever tried getting a seat at MRT interchanges? Like Jurong East? Dhoby Ghaut? Raffles City?
It's impossible! Why? If you have noticed, all the seats are snatched away by our aunties, who smile with glee after winning a seat. Let me list down the situation which i've noticed over the months.

Example , you stay in Boon Lay, and one fine day you wanted to go to Woodlands, maybe to get something, and it was during the peak hours, around mayb 5 eh? So you happily got on your train and prepare to alight at Jurong East to get on the North-South line. But just 1min before you reach Jurong East, you sensed something was not right (a bomb? tee hee hee), but no! Wait, you looked around, and you found aunties aged around maybe 30? 40? 50? I don't know, it's all up to your imaginations :D. They were all on the left side, staring to the right window with their menacing glare, holding on tight to their bags as if they will sprout wings and fly away. Suddenly all of them got on their feet, and trample their way to the door, just then you realised you are already at Jurong East interchange, and the train for the North-South line has already arrived! Of course you wanted a sit, as it's still quite a long way to Woodlands yeah? You tried to squeeze a little to the door, but to no avail. Just as the door opened, the aunties went on a rampage! Knocking down everything in their path, you followed them on the back closely, but found out that aunties who are trying to come in, are trying as hard as the aunties trying to get out! At long last you got your first breath of fresh air, other than the different brands of medicated oil you breath in during the conflict. So you got a hold of yourself and head towards the train. But you noticed that the aunties are mowing their way into the train, running, sprinting, flying, or whatever you might call it. You board on the train and found out there were no more seats, all of them were taken! By the aunties, all smiling with glee, with their golden teeth glittering and their imaginary golden medals around their necks. Little seats with gaps are quickly taken up by the runner ups, which of course are booked by the champions themselves!

F***! :D

Then suddenly they alight 1 or 2 stops from Jurong East, which their seats will be taken by another group of champions, which really makes you wonder, they can't stand for F***ing 1 or 2 stops, but they sure can run! Much faster then youngsters!

I don't know if you people had suffered this before, for those who seldom take public transports, or trains, i strongly suggest you not to, even this happens in buses, you might get injured, or get trampled on.

Ok i was joking.

You guys might experienced this before, some of you might not, but this has happened to me so many times, i'm fed up, pissed! For someone who has to take the train often, or say, take a long trip, you will feel F***ed, i'm sure.

The government should recruit these aunties to the olympics. Sure win!

Na beh ^^ (Very dulan)
