I have 2 more days in Hong Kong.
and then its back to o borin Singapore.
In Hong Kong, the bus transport system is unfair and screwed up.
They basically collect a one-off fare for the bus ride when you first board the bus. So this fare is inclusive of the whole trip there-after you board the bus. Lets say you have only a need to take 5 stops down the road, you will end up paying for the 33 stops that comes after it. This would be really unfair as bus routes generally charge a larger fee if they have to go through a tunnel in Hong Kong. Its easy to say "just avoid taking that long distance bus", but doesn't having to wait for fewer buses be time consuming and logically stupid?
It might seems to be rather okay since the bus driver will not be able to monitor the distance commuters take on their bus. Yet the fact that the bus company has the ability and technology to charge according to distances ( like the ezlink in Singapore) and they are still not doing it does to show they are money grabbing and screwed up. The issue was brought up quite a few times in the HK parliament but yet nothing was done. It is also true that majority of the population is not complaining since they are used to taking the whole distance. Yet won't HK has a better bus transport system if they make necessary changes?
I know I am just spending my summer and kind of has no rights to complain about their bus services.
It is more of me realizing that I might have spent of to 2000 HKD on transport this period that I am kind of unhappy about.
oh dear o me.
we might as well be.

Granny
I'm happy as long as you have led a good life.
I don't think I will forget a scene like that.
I thought it was just the movies.

one tree hill.
I realised I miss One Tree Hill. The drama and how certain part of their thoughts reflect upon our lives.
Or maybe lives without all these drama are good.
but in this way I don't feel any progress or much things to think about.
I know I've grown out of those days and should probably get used to the boring working life.
What happened to the happily-ever-after they promised in fairy tales? (not like I believe its true, but I would suppose there are real examples or they would not dare to come up with such obscure fabrication.)
I think I have been alone for way too long.
I need to rewatch the series to fill up my empty days.
serials are a back-up to being disappointed in the real life.

safe ride
No one is harder on me than myself
Or so it seems
Some say that you are my curse, my own worst enemy
I think they're wrong
They never thought our life could be like this

you are welcome to comment. Do drop your name though
it's been more than half a year since i've decided to type.
I don't even drop by any blogs anymore. I guess twitter kind of killed blogs off.
been occupying myself with various things for the last semester. ocip planning. school work.
summer is ongoing but so far its kinda a disaster with things not exactly going on plan or too well. I hate things not going according to plans. Got myself a pathetic internship in China after my application for one in Hong Kong failed. Resulted cutting short my internship after sitting in village China for 8 weeks and now I'm just wasting the rest of my summer away in Hong Kong.
The excess amount of time I have has let me wonder about certain issues.
I need a new direction.
and at a different pace.
It has been too safe.
for too long.
Oh, and yes this is for you who still bothers to come here.

i need to calm down
it's on days like these when you realised you feel like typing.
typing nothing in particular but just plain typing. probably cause i might be feeling empty. yes there you have it. might be feeling empty.
things would be much better if someone would've called in a month ago. or prolly turn for the worse but I do feel the need to talk. about what I have no clue.
watching jap drama (wow,somebody asked me to watch it) is doing me no good. kills some of the time which i need to organize stuff though.
that will be all for now. I had alot through my mind which i didn't type it down. bummers.
