It was one hell of a roller coaster ride from Vigan to Laoag. Our driver drove as though he’s Pilipino version of Jenson Button (let’s call him Jenseon Button since I don’t know his name, lol!) in a McLaren F1 car and all of us couldn’t help but to squeak when our car went too near to the car in front of us.

The entire 2 hours journey, we were either laughing our heads off because of some funny jokes or yelling for help because of the F1-ness in our driver’s blood. Sat had car sick and mild ‘heart attack’ as he sat next to Jenseon Button who was showing off his skill on road!

Fickle Minded

Posted Friday, September 3rd, 2010

Do you ever been in the situation where you can’t seem to make up your decision on what you want? Keep switching TV channels because both channels are playing your favourite Desperate Housewives and House? Repeatedly swapping the smoking hot red dress and the little black dress because you want to impress your date? Order a McValue meal and cancel it for GCB because they look more appealing but change back as you didn’t have enough cash on hand for GCB? Told your workers to do plan A but call it off because plan B looks better?

Then my friends, I believe you’re frickle minded.

To be frank, it’s totally okay to be inconsistent over the things I stated above. There are absolutely nothing wrong and normal in doing so. It’s not that you’re endangering other people’s life with your infirmness.

Even I myself am a fickle minded person. I would keep changing my clothes until I found the suitable one before going out. I would come out with many travel itineraries when planning a trip because one moment I think itinerary A is good, 5 minutes later I came out with another itinerary that would wow me off!

So, as I said earlier, fickle minded is not a bad thing. It actually pushes you to choosing the best among all. :P

But what I can’t stand is those fickle minded drivers. They would weave in from one lane to another and back to the same lane. The worst among all would be the sudden lane change – it’s so life endangering you know! -.-“

This is what happened to me in the morning somewhere before the midspan. It was drizzling in the morning so cars moved slowly (about 10-15km/h) on Penang bridge as it was the peak hour. I was in the middle lane; obviously surrounded by cars. Knowing that one couldn’t go fast at such situation, I just relaxed and drove at that speed while listening to my favourite radio station.

Funny thing happened to me today. Here it goes…

I was driving back from work. Like usual, I took the bridge which supposed to be faster way to head home. At 5.30 in the afternoon, the traffic already built up at the ramp going up to the bridge from Bayan Lepas area.

Seeing the massive jam (at least it’s not static), I was kinda ‘stressed out’. Moreover the rude drivers encounter, the hunger pang I had since 4, the insufficient sleep and rest – all attributed to me being very hot tempered.  But I managed to keep myself calm and focus by blasting the songs from the radio and constantly telling myself to relax.

The ramp soon connects to the bridge where 2 lanes becomes 4 ‘lanes’. It’s supposed to be 3 lanes, but due to ‘no-white-lines’ drawn on the road, people just squeezed their way through. I was on the outer lane from the ramp; so as I drove further, the traffic became very congested and slow as the lane I was in sort of ‘combined’ with the inner lane of the bridge. But luckily most drivers were patient and tolerant – allowing one car from each lane moved into the middle lane.

When it was my turn, I knew that I could just followed closely to the car in front of me but because I thought that I should be thoughtful and allow the car on my left (a Spectra) to go through, so I slowed down and… to my horror, the car behind the Spectra (which is a Waja) trailed the Spectra so darn closely and almost ‘kissed’ my car.

Seriously, I was very pissed off. I purposely slowed down to see who’s this donkeih driver.

As the Waja drove past me, this ‘face’ greeted me…

There was this fella in the front passanger seat, wore the above mask, flatten his face against the car window and looked at me. Annoyed, I looked back at him – and I saw the rest (in the car) was looking at me too, including the driver. The driver is a cha boh. -.-”

They looked at me probably with the hope to see a shocked/hysterical me or something like that. Well since they wanted a reaction from me, this was what I did…

… with sarcasm behind the smile... where after I ‘smiled’, I frown at them.

And immediately all of them just ‘jerked off’ and talked/laughed among themselves – that I wasn’t sure. From their gesture, I guess I’ve reacted in a way that they didn’t foresee. Lol!

After I drove to outer lane, while they were still on the inner lane – probably finding another ‘victim’ to prank. Haha!

Now, to think of it, I should instantly flash out my handphone in the pretext of taking picture of the ghost-masked-person. Probably that time, he’ll do something differently – like pose for me?

Hahaha!
