i wanted to rush home from the city just now. i wanted to reach home by 6pm because our favourite President, Bush was going to make his speech and it was to be televised live on Channel News Asia.
no no no... dont mistake me for a pseudo-politico-intellect wannabe. no no no... i've looked in the mirror a gazillion times. vain i might sound but i have to admit that i am better looking than Henry Kissinger.
truthfully, the desire to watch the circus was to spot some of my own's Letterman's Presidential Moments/Speeches.
however, like i mentioned before, those wants were merely wants. it didnt materialise. the rush hour had impeded my TalkShow wannabe fantasies.
which was when i had an epiphany of some sort.
in my head, an article headline perfect for the local afternoon paper, complete with its 70s porno neon lights, came into my attention.
it read:
'how to get on and off trains and buses with ease (even during rush hour)'
i would began with the following,
just follow these 10 Golden Rules
1-make sure you place yourself strategically when you get on. that means do the tough work first. weave your way through in like a snake...
...then it dawned upon me, what 10 golden rules!?
its the survival of the fittest! you shove, push, elbow, weave like a snake! do what you must or else you are left with nothing! nothing i say!
these people! they dont care who you are! young or old! strong or weak! they will shove you out of the game. so shove or be shoved!
or do what i always do...
wait for the next train.
