friday night

ouch… procrastination got the hold of me. i should have posted this on friday night.

rainy days are bane for us KTM Kommuter passengers. last friday was one of those days…

trains will definitely delayed if it rains heavily. worse thing is, even the announcers don’t even know what time will the train will arrive (for all destinations).

the killer move was out when the announcer told us to “Take other types of public transport and will refund back the tickets bought”.

damn, after waiting for almost an hour, this is what we get…

with nowhere to go and raining heavily, i decided to wander around before making the next move.

KL is a nice place to walk if you don’t mind the filth and some bad hats around the are.

anyway, i walked to Putra LRT station coz i was thinking of taking it to bandaraya station.

but i scrapped the plan.

instead, i walked around the station for half an hour. nice graffiti there.

this is only a part of it. and yes, that is the famous Yasmin Ahmad on the wall. i think most of you had seen it on the papers or on the TV.

Image(313) so random photo that i took. just standing there watching people walking in the rain somehow gives me a calm effect. not to mention fun. haha!

went to Central Market next. decide to skip Petaling Street coz i don’t think there will be much to see there on a rainy days.

Image(314)do you know that there are various kind of show in the Central Market at night? i only knew it on that day. but i did not waited for it. plus, i don’t think they can perform anything on a weather like this (it’s an open air performance).

since i’m at Central Market already, i might as well took a bus home. plus i don’t think trains will be a very efficient transport on a rainy day. not worth taking the risk anyway.

but then again, taking a bus is a risk itself. after all, how many times have we read in the papers that there are daylight robbery in the bus and yet nobody is willing to help.

and i have not taken a bus ride for more than 3 years. that’s a big risk. yikes…

the above is a bad photo. it’s actually me inside the bus. haha!

daylight or not, i still took out my PSP to kill time coz in KL :

rain + public hols. = massive jam.

but the journey is still fast considering that i’m taking a Selangor Bus (or was it Metro Bus?). doesn’t matter. the speed of these two buses are the equivalent to F1 racing.

and these smart asses even skipped a few routes to evade the jam. but of course, they had warned the passengers beforehand that they will skip that particular route.

reached kepong in an hours time. feels a lot better than waiting for the train for an hour!!!

Image(316) photo taken while i was waiting for GF in Kepong. can’t complain the quality of the photo much coz i was using my old handphone to take this.

left office at 5.30pm, reached home at 8.10pm. that’s a great friday!!!
