23/02/2010 - A Day to Remember

Hi fellows,

This is my third post in two days. 23/02/2010. Was it a special or strange day for you? Well, for me and Clarence, it was.

Fine, first thing in the morning, the cross country meet, nothing much to write about. I-Spark took up 4 of the top 10 positions for Sec 1. Hooray! Besides, Mr Low got second in the teacher’s race! Yeah! This was not the special part.

Clarance and me had decided to go to Macdonald’s for lunch at Jurong Point. Since the McValue lunch was only available at 12 noon, we decide to sit 154, which was a waste of time, to Boon Lay, where Jurong Point is located. Once we got onto the bus, the bus captain was speaking to someone else through the microphone.

“I put Off Service!” the bus captain said. Throughout the journey, the bus captain pulled over to adjust the mirror. Since he said that sentence, no one else came on, only passengers alighted. Along Boon Lay Way, many commuters were angry as the bus did not stop although they flagged it down. Nothing wrong. 154 was the only bus passing by there, and our bus was Off Service. What a great experience to sit on an Off Service bus! On the bus, Clarance and me were discussing on this issue to be placed on our blog. We also took some photos.

Upon reaching Boon Lay Interchange, Clarance had to top up his card. In front of him, there was a man that only knew how to speak Chinese. With the lady at the counter only able to speak in English, Clarance was ropped in to help with the translation. That’s about all, I believe.

Bye!
