wow...how about that? just did my last post a few days back and ive got comments already. now that just got me curious instead...what constitutes a typical bruneian anyway? i think that is one of the most abused and over-used phrase ever. Although i plead guilty on using that phrase before as well. haha. gah! im not gonna dwell on that. there's a lot of ppl in this world and everyone is entitled to their own opinion and ive learnt a long time ago that not everyone is going to agree with what i say, so be it :)
trivial things aside and moving on to bigger issues now. i was just driving back home from work tadi...it was raining really heavily tadi so i was going super duper slow. soOooo....i had lotsa time on my hands and one thing just occured to me. not a lot of ppl suka bagi jln huh? why is that?
okay...imagine this. ur on a single carriageway... and a car in front of you stops cause it wants to go in a simpang. and obviously its not gonna cross and go in until there are no more cars on the opposite side of the road yes? so imagine the amount of traffic it will accumulate behind it. isn't it so much better for the car on the opposite side of the road to give way? thats gonna cause you what? 15 secs? is 15 secs so much time kan? can u go a mile in 15 secs kan? plus...u also get pahala...and u feel like a do-gooder inside. so yes...i think its just soOo much better to give way saja. and the cars behind the car thats stopping will also be super grateful to u for giving that car way as well. (this is assuming that the cars cant go around the stationary car lah)
im in a philosophical mood right now.
as u all know by now...it was raining heavily tadi on my way back from work. so some cars were still going fast....(in the stormy weather!) i know right? so reckless. i stayed on the right lane tadi...for a good reason. the left lane had a lot of puddles....and there were no cars on the right lane....and when there ARE cars on the right lane that wants to overtake....barutah i go to the left. so yeah..im not one of those typical (haha, theres that word again - man i crack myself up) drivers who likes to stick to the right lane even when im going slow :P. there was this one time....i think i was along the tutong highway sudah....this suzuki vitara was going superrrr fast (well a whole lot faster than me lah...) so i switched to the left lane...and ZOOOOOM, he whizzed past me. then about 15-20 mins later....i arrived along the jerudong park highway...and there was a slight jam...there were police cars...and an ambulance. yep. u guessed it. the same vitara was tebalik.
*shudder*
so berijab. that just teaches u a lesson doesnt it? dont speed when its raining!!
i hate accidents. ppl who aren't afraid of accidents are plain dumb. or its just that they just don't love their loved ones. i wouldnt wanna cause the ppl who loves me any worry over my safety. hmpf.
now that just leads to my next thoughts. counting ur blessings. milly and i were just talking about counting our blessings the other day :)
and truthfully...it really is an eye opener. everyone should count their blessings so that they will be grateful and happy in life.
for instance...i know ive been complaning about how commuting is a bitch and all. but what if....WHAT IF instead of thinking that way....i tell myself that i should be thankful that i was offered a job? i mean....think of all those other ppl who can't find jobs. i should be grateful enough that i GOT one and that im earning sudah kan?
or how about those other days when im bitching about how im gainin weight? i should be grateful that i dont have any disabilities. that i can see...talk....hear....that ive got all of my fingers...that i can walk.. that i can THINK. kan kan kan? makes u think huh? a lot of ppl in this world are just so ungrateful about what they have.
so yes. in thinking that way? it makes me happy :) cause ive been counting all of my blessings and i truly am blessed :)
thanks baby for bringing that up with me. teehee *hugs* :)
speaking of that pangit dude...where is he?? hes supposed to call me right now. Grrrrr! (bwoh...nah tu... kan marah tia balik...HAHAHA)
