It's Pingo Bingo Time!

Not quite bingo, but PB...
Sigh... as we go around and kaypoh kaypoh how much each other gets, we tend to compare... Sian ah... Since young mother compare compare whose child get some fabuloso results, now we compare we collegues and see who get fabuloso bonus.

Somehow, although we use the same washing powder sometimes, our laundry is sometimes not quite fabulously white as our counterparts. Must be the washing machine, branded washing machines wash cleaner I'm sure. Maybe I shall request for a change in brand of washing machine.

Speaking of washing machine, I can't wait to move in my brand new spanking whoopass washing machine. It's still in it's packaging outside my room. Hopefully I can move stuff into our new home soon and maybe I'll convert it into a gaming/ entertainment centre! Opps! My miserly meagre Pingo Bingo is not sufficient for such a purpose. Better be more content with life as is and keep my mind focused on the right treasures :)

Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust...

Far arc kit! This was the name of a Singapore guild in WoW that was forced to change it's guild name. This was also what i was thinking mentally. Why? I was waiting for a bus home after slogging my guts out during the school holidays when happy little airheads take a break from doing nothing in school.

I was vexed, why is it that 3 sets of bus number 28, 8, and 18 have passed and I don't see a single bus number 3 or 17? I knew it, SBS hates me. SBS hates people who stay in Pasir Ris. SBS hates hardworking teachers above everyone else. I knew it.

I resorted to filling the wallet of a poor Indian driver with a princely sum of $8.65. A trip from Tampines to Pasir Ris costing $8.65! Thank you Mr. Minister! It's just peanut shavings to you, not even peanuts!

Yadda yadda hanla hanla... complain complain... As I pass by Loyang Avenue on my expensive ride, I saw the reason behind the stoppage of bus. I didn't understand why it was necessary to halt all bus flow from Bedok and Tampines to Pasir Ris when it is the road from Pasir Ris that is blocked. Don't SBS have backup buses for re-routing? Anyhow, the scholars are way too good to listen to rants and raves of common little people like me.

Seriously, what is the point of ranting? I should be thankful that I am alive! Why? I could have been the poor driver who was killed in the accident! Driving home, driving safely... Bing Bang Boom! An errant lorry driving swerves thinking he is Takumi from Initial D, swipes another lorry, which proceeds to roll on top of the car in front, crushing the poor man.

Seriously, Far Arc Kit you stupid lorry drivers. Is that meagre few seconds or minutes you save by driving reckless worth that man's life.
