Long Journey
Arranged to meet wif ck & Eg at IKEA yesterday after work to shop for eg's birthday present. Took my mentor's advice to take Bus 14 from Tanah Merah to IKEA which turned out to be one of the interesting ride that I had for the past few years.
As the Bus travelled along East Coast Road towards Katong, it reminded me of the times that I had during my primary sch as I used to live ard Marine Cresent. Long forgotten was the simple, cheerful and innocent moment that was once found in my life. Looking at the Primary sch kids alighting at various bus stops & looking at the latest hp model on their hands just made me wonder how life for kids are so different from my times.
When the journey continued from Katong to Kallang, the scenery of the houses besides was such quiet and peaceful which makes me envy of their relax times which the family can spent playing with the kids at the garden. What could one possibly ask for more than just some sweet memories with their families?
At the journey continues towards City Hall following Somerset, the scene seem to change from a kampong village to a modern city with lots of vechicles storming everywhere as if rushing for their lives. Reminded me of the situation that most of us people are facing everyday. We are so hurried in our daily lives that we simply had no times to take a closer look at the things around us e.g. our families, relationships, friends etc. What's the meaning behind all the rush, have we ever wondered?
After Somerset towards Bukit Merah, my sight became blank suddenly. Everything seem to become so blur and unimportant to me. My mind could not think anymore. What had happened? The reason is mainly because I had almost fallen asleep at this point of time. It had been almost 1hr 20min since I boarded the Bus 14. If not for the fear that I might miss the stop, I believed I would be playing chess wif "Zhou Gong" oredi.
The conclusion I got from this trip was that it would be much faster for me to take a mrt instead of taking Bus 14. This is what I called experience. Experience is always accumulated through painful and sad encounter which is the reason that it is unforgetable and memorable.
