I SURRENDER!!!

Arh... kena attacked by the forumites in Sgbuses for taking too much buses now(I was doing my VINdication project mahz)...
Actually did some reflections... decided not to take too many rides. 10 enuff.
btw tmr shift 3 - 8pm at JRL. Interested ppl see me there at Level 4. Lolx.

Past few days loitering in the west.. time to go east this sat as the last free day.

btw no time to blog lah. Sleep liaoz. L8r go sch.


I RAISE MY WHITE FLAG LAHZ! LOLX!

Very very long no blog liaoz...

I know very very long time. Believe u all are chui-ing me to create a new post. Ok Ok.
Last few days easy come easy go. On friday first time met Philip in JRL. He seems like playing hide and seek with me... lolx siam here siam there. finally asked me who am i. lolx. then went 3rd storey see guides, magazines and reports. Later went to catch SBS 1734 K on 79... better take now or never. Then did a first full ride on sv 199. Shiork!

Saturday. Did 51 full route which was faster than 66 full route... only 2 hours. No butt pain... lolx. Still got time go BNV, so take gassy there experience the natural way of taking bus. Then met Philip at the MRT Stn. Chui Jack to go BNV faster from Holland V. Finally he came liaoz. nv knew that Ebenezer was coming along... surprise! then went BNV Ter get guides. The route manager was VERY RUDE... very reluctant to spare 3 guides of 91 and 95 each, still say what for. After that went to catch Norman's bus in Ghim Moh. In the meantime watched the buses doing 3 point turning and got a pic of a Mk2 which went over from BNV to Ghim Moh with SBS livery repainted. Then SBS 535 A arrived (Norman's bus duh?). First time met Norman. Nice meeting. Anyway I want to comment that his bus was damn shiork... (btw Philip left at C'wealth Stn). Then he gave me and Ebenezer test tixs and later had to drive back 416 K which had door prob with plastic stuck to the door to cover the gap... lolx. Later went for tuition.

Today took 22 buses, VINdicated 18. Night VINdication: 2 out of 6. Already made progress for night VINs. Ytd 0 out of 2 success.

Siao lang on bus!

SMRT Buses Launches Its First Cross-Border Service 950

Come Sunday, 19 September 2004, commuters can look forward to seamless travel across the Causeway when SMRT Buses launches its first Cross-Border Service 950 which plies between the Woodlands Regional Interchange (WRI) and Johor Bahru (JB), Malaysia.

Service 950 will ply from WRI via Woodlands Avenue 3 (Marsiling Station), Woodlands Centre Road, Woodlands Checkpoint, Johor Bahru Checkpoint to Kotaraya II Terminal.

This service will provide an attractive mode of travel for commuters who wish to travel between Singapore and Johor Bahru. Commuters can use our extensive SMRT train and bus network to travel to either Woodlands Regional Interchange or Marsiling Station to connect to Service 950, which will bring them directly to Johor Bahru.

Hence, commuters working or staying in areas such as Ang Mo Kio, Bedok, Boon Lay, Changi, Marine Parade, Sembawang, Sengkang, Tampines, Toa Payoh, Tuas and Yishun will now have a more accessible and hassle-free mode of travel to Johor Bahru.

Kee Siao?!

S963: TIB 0987 X Upp Bt Timah Rd - HBF Int
Sat at the back of the bus. The engine seemed to vibrate so vuiolently as though I am having a free massaging session... but make me hard to sleep. The bus kept on flying at AYE and Pasir Panjang. In the end, bumped my head 3 times!

S188: TIB 1227 Y HBF Int - BB West Ave 4
A freezing cold ride. Too cold until I cannot stand. Whole body turned numb after half an hour at Clementi. Actually the ride was soooooooooo shiork until I hoped to go to CCK. But back to my plan...

Got heated in my heart...

Arh... Sch reopening... zzz. Expected nothing to happen except for punishment for not completing homework... but that's not the case surprisingly. Acting skills very very good. lolx. This term has to piang liaoz.

btw, back to the topic. Perhaps time to show my bus rides for the day first before continuing with the story:

The incident is like that. On SBS 0065 P (157). Usual place of seating at the three people seat. I was sitting there for whole journey. Then at the Jurong Green CC stop got some Fuhua Sec pupils board the bus... and one girl actually stood in front of me and my left leg was in between hers... Then the thing started to happen. One indian guy wanted to go to the back seat. She no choice but have to lean towards me and....! (I dont think I need to mention this.) and not long after, about 5 mins later, the bus jerked and then that happened again!!! Stunned. Dont dare to move leg and felt like apologising to her. but then, coincidentally same stop get down. She went home direction (Blk 285/6 Bukit Batok) while I took 852 home... now still liang xin bu an. What should I do?

btw got my hair cut. very ugly. Must wear cap to sch tmr... lolx

AGI 2004

Sunday.... normally every Sunday go for joyrides.... but today got this AGI thingy at S'goon Stadium...
Anyway about AGI, Zone 7 & 8 are the GOH for this year... but this year seems like many people are missing... not much about it except that those zone 4 swiss cottagers are always enthu over these occassions... haiz. they are the ones who are sort of extra among the rest.

btw let's switch to another topic. I went to Boon Lay via Whitley Rd. Took 154 and it chiong like siaoz. overtook three 156 buses. Record from Whitley Rd to BNL: 25 mins! Stunning siaz. After that took 188T on 157 and changed bus (TIB 911 D of 852) home. Aircon on that "WTC" bus was so shiork and freezing cold.

Gotta chiong my homework. Have been doing it since 10pm. Nitex

Okay... come back to topic. Went out of house at 10. Did some joyrides and I dint know that I attracted quite a lot of Mark 5s! Kee siao liaoz. Mark 5 geng zong me. Then on SBs 2797 Y of service 113, I was opening the seats hoping to find tix but the driver approached me... "What you doing?" I told him that I was just searching for tix but he thought I was going to plant a bomb. Please lorz. Do I look like a terrorist? (Even though today is the Sept 11) I am just a sec student who even failed my chem... how to be a bomber? He left and continued driving. I alighted soon after and boarded SBS 895 K back to find Jack...

Aha Jack arrived finalli. We then took Mark 2 on 151... whee! Fast siaz. Later boarded Trident... got some tix... no big deal over a Trident. Asked Jack what happened to Alexander and found out that Transbus kena mati and that leaves Alexander merging with Dennis and Plaxton a standalone. Later take 11. Mark 2 but expected a Mark 4 DM out. Found 32x tix and got down the bus to transfer to 14 to go Katong lim kopi.

After about twenty mins walk since we alighted from that VO3X, finally found the place to lim kopi.. so crowded siaz. Then saw Eben walking towards us and he told us that he got a bloody sv 10 VC... he veri suay. We then procceed forward and saw the 328 Katong Laksa... advertised on Ch U yesterday. Ordered a bowl and 2 cups of lime juice for myself... hor sek lah... then the whole bowl of laksa was "licked" until empty. Later go back to queue to lim kopi....

Yeah finally our turn to lim kopi liaoz. I ordered Kopi susu while Jack ordered Kopi-O and Eben ordered teh tarik. Then we ordered 3 kaya toasts altogether. Nice kaya toasts really and the kopi zeng hor lim arh.. Eben also brought along his buses mag and quite interesting contents seh.

After that did some joyrides on 222 and 854. Camped at Bedok for 1.5 hours until the bendy MB O405G came... finally. Got onto 72 at Tampines and headed to Hougang. Time for us to split now. Eben took 132, Jack took 153 and me 27, then transfer 965 go tuition... Then 852 home... Lethagic day after all these... lolx

Add ons:
Pity Malcolm. You say Mark5 can wait... but then today I attract 40+ liaoz.

Shifted to New Blog...

Shifted all my operations from the old corrupted "blog" (I dont treat that as a blog but a rubbish collection centre) Yeah. Reformatting this blog in progress... gotta go now. Nitex.
