Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails....

Spent my whole wednesday on FYP/project meeting. Met in town to discuss, thereafter rush for tuition at Yishun. and i met this very irritating cab driver.

He took CTE(SLE) from orchard to yishun and at the expressway, he was driving at 50km/h. i was so pissed, cuz im late for tuition and he still drive machiam see scenery. I looked at my watch, it was 3.25pm, so i said:

ME: ERM sorry uncle, can u try to reach the place by 3.30pm?
IRRITATING UNCLE: what? what you say?
ME: (deaf isit, must be not paying attention while driving la) Can you reach by 3.30pm?
IRRITATING UNCLE: 3.30pm? ok.

And he continues driving at 50km/h...-_-

finally when i reach yishun, this uncle makes mi more furious.

ME: uncle, please don't turn here. Go straight then U-TURN.
IRRITATING UNCLE: wad?
ME: (*&^%#%^&%#) DON'T turn here. GO STRAIGHT.

he drove straight.

ME: Uncle, please make a U-TURN here.
IRRITATING UNCLE: turn right here hur?
ME: I mean U-TURN.

AND HE TURNS RIGHT.....(*&^%&%^#%^&%#%^&#

fed up can, and he have to drive all the way to the other road, make a big round and u-turn back. it was already 3.35pm.

ME: UNCLE, I SAID U-TURN, NOT TURN RIGHT.
IRRITATING UNCLE: what? u-turn? you never tell me earlier.
ME: (pissed off) I TOLD YOU TWO TIMES BEFOREHAND ALREADY!

Towards the end of the road...

IRRITATING UNCLE: now turn right?
ME: NO, U-TURN TO THAT PLACE.
ME: U-TURN, NOT TURN RIGHT!

and he u-turn, and drove t 50km/h (p.s. he is driving a new taxi.)

in the end i paid 15 bucks, instead of my normal 8 bucks. -_-

after tuition, rushed down to queenstown for another FYP discussion with a lady. hop onto cab again, i was late for tuition, and i was late for the meeting.(moral: don't arrange tuition in between -_-)

this young cab driver is v good, he drives at good speed, find the shortest route for mi and takes time to read the map i printed. cuz im going to lock road, this very ulu but expensive and posh place.

then on the road, we saw this yellow lamborghini on street. the uncle and i had this fnny conversation:

FUNNY UNCLE: whah, what a waste of money leh. buy such a expensive car and let the tyres scratch across the road.
ME: -_-" aboh then, buy the car and put at home 'bai mei' meh? but true la, singapore so small, drive so expensive car abit waste money.
FUNNY UNCLE: ya lor, summore cannot speed. see, my taxi and his car end up on the same road. but hai singapore so many rich people leh.if only i can drive that....
ME: aiya uncle dont compare la, ren bi ren hui qi si ren la.

then i suddenly pop out a sentence

ME: see, the yellow colour so OBIANG! not nice lah
FUNNY UNCLE: -fainted- XIAO JIE, LAMBORGHINI LEH!

ME: i know, so what? i don't like the colour.
FUNNY UNCLE: -fainted-

And he goes again inplying how envious he was...

FUNNY UNCLE: sit in lamborghini is like sitting on the floor, very low one.
ME: aiyo so cham, can see anot? buy such a expensive car to sit on the floor.
FUNNY UNCLE: -_-" XIAO JIE, LAMBORGHINI LEH!

in the end, he drove to ask mi to see if the driver is young or old.

i took a peep. wahlou, so low and window so black, it's so difficult to see a thing lor.

ME: it's a young man.
FUNNY UNCLE: wah so young drive lamborghini liao ah........

taking a closer look...
ME: Omg! NO leh! the driver has long hair! it's a young woman!
FUNNY UNCLE: WAH women nowadays more POWER!

in the end my cab fare reaches twenty-seven bucks. ouch

thankfully, it wasn't a wasted trip. the person was a strong and fierce lady. but im sure she makes a good intervew. hai, after every meeting, with new things explored, i always have problem imagining how our documentary is gona look like again.
