MY SAY

On certain day of my life, how to say you just pass through without much luck. I am not expecting anything great, just a normal one will do. Nothing to think about. But this happening - is in fact some great moments about my time.

Like my driving. For one thing I am expecting I will drive one kilometer within a span of one minute. So for 42 km I will take at most 45 minutes - an extra 3 minutes. I usually beat this time on my way to work. So far I only involved with two unfortunate journeys, one - when the landslide occurred somewhere near Selayang sometime late last year and two - just last Saturday 15 March 2010 when a lorry carrying full load of bricks met an accident somewhere at the end of the one lane road before Tesco Rawang. That Saturday cost me about fifty minuted late than usual. But that landslide I just turned around and went home.

On my way home - I can say I am always not so lucky. Sometime it started with the traffic light near the Nasi Ayam Restaurant, about one kilometer near school. To pass that trafficlight took nearly fifteen minutes. Then it continued with the fruit stall before Rawang and went on until Tesco. The road leads to then, I considered quite lonely where I could drive 140 km/h - that near Rawang Craft College. I must drive fast here because I couldn't get anywhere later to drive fast. Usually I just beat 120 km/h here.

Diving on I will pass the National Mosque. How do I say? I am the one who didn't get any blessing as I passed it twice a working day.

The driving

With my E63 Using Intekma Resort Connection.
Usually I am quite alert and my eyes are wide open while driving in the morning. But this morning I was so very very sleepy. I felt like laying down. I don't feel like going to the meeting. The jam was near Angkasapuri. I am used to have the jam on my home actually but not on my way to work. What a day.

MY DRIVING

Sometimes you don't realise what you are doing. You said you just have to do it. You couldn't care less what happen.

I think now it gets into my nerve. On my home I have to face the traffic jam. Almost everyday. That takes place about three km before Bank Negara until home. That is about twelve km of traffic jam daily. How to be patience?

So once I left Rawang, I drive 110 km per hour. I can't stand others taking their sweet time. I will signal them with my lights. I can say now it is my new hobby to drive fast. Just bless me.

DRIVING HOME

These days I have to drive home in the rain. It is rather heavy. And I am scared of the landslide.

THE DRIVINGS

How not to say tired after all you have to drive at least 84 km a day? It will be more if I use alternative route to avoid the jam. After four months I am dead tired. I am past fifty to deny all these activities. May be others don't find this annoying but it tires me so much. In fact it comes a stage that I am thinking of stepping down or just drop dead everything. So I love weekends so much and waiting for it always like a small kid. I am just trying to be patience now. Just bless me.

MY DAILY CHORE

I have to drive 41 km to school. That's makes 82 km to and fro. I used to divide my driving into quarters.

Fom home to about the junction to PWTC (I suppose this is still Jalan Kucing), it is the first quarter. I never meet any problem on my way to school in this first quarter except near DBP because from seven lanes (Jalan Loke Yew) it branches to three separate ways. I must not be later than 6.30 am at this spot so that it will be a smooth driving to pass this space on earth. But on my way home I must face the jam which starts from Bank Negara without fail if I pass here about 5.00 pm.

The second quarter ends near Selayang and Batu Caves, that is about one km from Tesco Selayang (there is a round about on top of the road - forgot the name of the round about). Here is always a smooth driving. Of course except if there is an accident happen.

The third quarter is always something that tickle my mind. Why there are big lorries here after all I never meet any for the first twenty km? And the road is also dark because the streetlights are already off even before 7.00 am. On top of it the end of my third quarter, that is somewhere near Taman Commonwealth, the two lanes narrow to one. Luckily the one lane is just for about two km. I also face problem here because the lights from the cars on the other side of the road are glaring the eyes. There are only double lines here and all the cars are speeding. All these problems eased up as I am approaching Rawang.

My last quarter is also ok even though I have to pass the centre of Rawang. There is no jam whatsoever in the morning. Only that, my last t-junction which is about one km from school is heavy with traffic but it is solved by the traffic light. How to say to have the last turn to the school is the most dangerous spot.
