Thailand plans are all soiled spoiled or whatever negative word fits in there. I mean come on, they refused to give me a visa. Thailand is cool and all, but i dont plan on visiting them any time soon. Esp after this fiasco. Next trip is down under (not counting the trip home ofcourse).

Lately i've gotten fed up of sleeping on the ride back home. Mostly because i wake up with sudden shocks to realise im sprawled over one and a half seats with my mouth open (lucky for me i dont drool). So to safeguard my public image i try to stay awake and listen to my ipod. This way i can restore my cool factor. You may ask why would this really matter? Well dears, since i travel by bus at a particular time on an infrequent bus, there are familiar faces on this journey. And as a regular commewter who snoozes, i have already ruined my reputation. So to gain back the trust and the goodwill of passengers i will never really know, i listen to my ipod instead of sleeping.

By the way, you can't be thinking i was serious about that passage. Who the eff cares about the way i snooze. I add on two hours of sleep to my regular dosage because i get to sleep on the bus. The real reason i havnt been sleeping is because i have developed a new fascination for cars. I've become a carwatcher. I always sit on the right side of the bus so that i have a clear view of the traffic. I get annoyed if the bus has those printy things that make it all dark. And worse, if there are no window seats left... thats like a waste of a journey back home.

So wat's so cool about car watching? Well for one thing, this is singapore, so basically all the cool cars hit the road(The roads themselves are beautiful, that i will take an entire entry to discuss). In srilanka, although people spend a lot on vehicles, you hardly see any decent 'cars'. To top it off, bkt tmah rd is the best car showroom. You just need to take a ride :) to get lost in the superficial world of car watching.

So the first revelation i had while car watching:
Nothing beats the beauty of a Jaguar. They are truly majestic. But the character of a jag lies in the colour. Black jags are truly enigmatic. They are elusive, important, and respected. It is the ultimate car to own.
On the whole, jags in darker colours possess are similar presence, but they do not have the charisma of a blak jag. Although there was one in a pearly dark gray that exuded sex appeal. It was more of a young, rich-kid-with-substance attitude. But as far as colours for jags go, these are the best.
There was a pastel green jag on the streets today. The only thought that came to my mind was, WHAT THE HELL WAS HE/SHE THINKING! If you can afford to buy such an awesome car, there should be some taste involved.

So you see, there are several episodes that can be written on a single journey to work. I love looking at the little details that people seem to avoid. Buses are full of unique experiences, people, stories, episodes. A reality check to tell you that Singapore is beautiful, you just have to go out there to see it.
