driving at 3am

You used to talk to me like I was the only one around
You used to lean on me, the only other choice was falling down
You used to walk with me like we had no where we needed to go
Nice and slow, to no place in particular.

We used to have this figured out
We used to breathe without a doubt
The nights were clearer for the first time that I'd see
We used to have this under control
We never thought we used to know
At least there's you, and at least there's me
Can we get this back? Can we get this back?
To how it used to be

i can so relate to this song now.. but thats not really the point. yawns.. mornin glory~ it's 5.11am and i just got home from supper with sis and amery.

was pretty fun..! had no dinner tonight (oh actually technically last night) cus of work. rahhh is it justifiable to work on a public holiday and most likely being paid the usuals?! lol.. my mom actually wanted me to ask for 1.5x pay.. but its kinda embarrassing. ohwell. it doesnt really matter cus it was quite slack for me. din even have to head a class ytd.. and especially no sec 1 class. lol. well i was happy. hmmm. but so sad i din get to teach p5B!! i wanna see my fav smart kid.. hahaah.

so anw i kinda digressed a lil. zz. hmm. point was we went out for supper at some hong kong dim sum place near ecp.. we ordered quite alot.. it was a spread luh.. siew mai, chee cheong fun (3 different fillings), xiao long bao, ha1 gao2, some tze chuan soup thingy, chicken feet etc.. lol. so yeah.. really late night binging for me.. at around 1++ or 2am. looks at bulging tummy.. *shakes head* shall do sth bout it tmr.. or maybe next time.. haha.

but anw thats not the main part.. the best part was..

*drumrolls*

i took the wheel on some deserted (main) road after that!! HAHA. *SSHHHHHHHHHHHHH* madness luh.. cus amery was like "why not we teach the small one driving once everyone is full..." lol. hilarious. i was darn scared.. actually i wasnt very nervous.. but still, im sure amery and sis felt like they were on a death cab or sth.. lol. so donkz.. plus i suck at easing on the throttle/brakes and turning the wheel. zzz. its really not as simple as it looks! ok fine maybe i dun have the talent for driving.. i think if i ever start on my practical lessons i'd really need the roads to be BLOCKED. haha. cus i kinda drive into oncoming lanes.. *hides face* thank god there were no cars in the wee hours of the mornin.

anw, we were like driving this straight road which actually turns into the main road.. lol. i wasnt prepared for that luh.. zzz. and the first time i really went full pedal on the brake and the car sorta just well.. jerked to a stop violently. haha. oopsay~ din know it was that sensitive. then amery was imitating puke sounds. haha. hilarious.

then we went to this carpark to practise my turning (which really sucks cus i cant quite decide when to brake or accelerate and how much to turn the wheel). this part was hands down the scariest.. cus there were really fierce stray dogs there! and they always choose to come barking after the car right where i wanna turn. zz. amery was going "dont care bout the dogs, just turn.. they'll know how to siam4. or u just bang them lor". lol.. but how to disregard them.. now i know how the fear factor contestants feel when they have dogs running after them. it IS scary. hmmm. shudders.

anw as i was driving i kept panicking when i saw cars approaching me.. lol.. and stupid cyclists should stay off road! even people waiting at the busstops bother me.. i was going.. "ahhh got people". then my sis laughed her head off and said innocent people by the road not knowing what's coming.. gahh..

then second part was just more driving on narrow roads.. a lil scary. esp on roundabouts. yikes.. u guys should try.. and teach me..! cus i cant seem to get it right.

so anw im getting kinda sleepy now. hmmm. in any case, i have decided that i will be more patient towards learner drivers i see everyday on way to work from now on. and not curse at em in my heart for looking like an idiot driving so slowly.. haha. tho i still think that i would not drive at that snail pace when my turn eventually comes. but driving in daylight scares me a lil.. the traffic..! HAHA. madness. ohwell..

hmmm, watch out yilun.. we should go drive together.. i think we'll own the roads. HAHA.

rahh.. tired tired.. adrenaline's kinda gone i guess. mmm. 5.43am alr. time for bed.. yawns.. work again tmr, but thankfully quite slack. *beams*

oh ya before i forget, ANYONE WANNA GO FOR AJCHOIR CONCERT ON 18th MAY? i feel like going but i dun have company. dang, shoulda asked nic a lil earlier.. hmmss. anyone wanna go?
