Hmmm...its monday morning 9.40am.
what is Evonne doing blogging here?!!
isn't she supposed to be at class?!!
=P
let me recount what happened this morning...
another entry to my book on 'Interesting Stories on e Mrt'
haha!
i woke up late dis morning...
*note! but still can get to sch on time if i dun drop by my hall before class.
so i decided to take e Mrt to Raffles Place and change to Boon Lay
since its supposedly shorter
and i was thinking, now is e morning peak hour so e trains should be veri smooth
and time taken to transfer from each line wouldn't take too long
everything went fine...until Raffles Place
boarded e East West line after waiting for 5minutes
(so im supposed to reach Boon Lay at 8am)
and then...
e train cant move.
it jus stayed dere n open n close the doors for god knows how many times
until e announcement came
'pls alight cos e train is not for passenger service'
what nonsense.
so obvious its cos e train got some problem
so waited another 5min for e next train
how is it possible to squeeze 1 trainful of pple into another crowded train?!!
ok i was lucky enough to squeeze in
but then at outram park station
e same thing happened again
E SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN
so a normal trip from Raffles Place to Boon Lay takes 30min
i took 25min to travel from Raffles Place to Outram Park
which is only 2 stops away from Raffles Place
and then there's this China woman
who keeps pushing to get into e inside of e cabin
so i got pissed off
and i PURPOSELY push others around me
making a big show
of me trying to let her pass through
showing that there's no space
yet this woman keeps wanting to move
ha!
and then when i reach Boon Lay
no no no
things are not over!
e entire platform was soooooooo bloody crowded with people
that those who alighted cant go off
those who came up to take e train cant board
and the control station actually made an announcement
asking pple to wait for e next train if they cant board e current one
what a joke
e entire train was practically empty
because those who alighted are blocking the doors
those who wanna enter cant go in
and then
cos there was this whole jam thingy
until pple got stuck at e escalator
it seriously is scary
the escalator just keeps moving and bringing pple up
when those who reach the top cant clear the area in time cos too crowded
and those behind just keeps crashing into pple in front
and all e while e escalator just continue bringing pple up
its seriously scary
u cant move....but e escalator under ur feet keeps moving
OMG
this is e first time i see sth likdat
even during Xmas or Countdown or any major event in town
nth likdat happened
so i spent like what, 15min getting from e platform
down to e gates
-_-"
and at this point of time
i was wondering
given e sequence of events so far
would e bus have some hiccup also??
lolx
stupid Mrt
im sure we pay so much fares
for your so-called 'increase in quality'
with
more disruptions
more accidents
more jams
not enough trains
maybe next time i shld just stick to my normal route
can get a seat, can slp peacefully
and can get to sch on time
i took this picture in ulu NTU!
quite nice i think =)
