Marie asked me to blog this down cos it's too funny... =D

I realized people are at their worst on morning MRTs... especially WOMEN.

The funniest thing i've ever encountered on trains is this: taking the NEL every weekend morning, it's always damn crowded and 80% of the people alight at douby ghaut station. i'm telling you that the most popular door to alight from is actually the first door not the middle ones. reason being it's the nearest to the lift for HANDICAP people and these perfectly normal people (mostly women) get up from their seats at little india station to gather at the door. when the door opens at douby ghaut they'll run (yes run) as fast as their click cloks can carry them to again, gather in front of the lift so that they don't have to strain their legs walking to the escalator to let it carry them up. brilliant people. talk about being kiasu. it's truly a funny sight.

And of course there are other atrocities like pushing others outta the way & stepping on toes in fear of not being able to board/alight the train in time. this morning some bald middle age guy mumbled "kewme kewme" pushing shoulders & stepping on my entire feet to finally find his way out. well 'scuse us for being in the way, we should have laid a red carpet for you.

It'll take me way too long to list down every single eye-rolling event but try taking the MRT in the morning when people are going to work, it's worth the experience. i'm still not quite used to it yet. people on buses are usually more civilised.

i take the stairs by the way.
