i really had it with you.
our love-hate relationship has got to end.
you are unreasonable.
you are dangerous.
you weave in and out of my life.
you almost killed me twice.
surely the happiness you gave to me is far overshadowed by the pain you have caused (rapid beating heart and not in a good way, uncontrolled cursing and swearing which makes me appear like i am insane and talking to myself, paranoia etc).
I have to go public with this seldom disclosed aspect of my life.
i hate you. . .
taxi drivers.
i just met the 194538th taxi driver which tried really really hard (you mean it wasnt on purpose?? nah.. an enraged woman isnt prone to listen to logical explainations..) to kill me (i have to admit he was more subtle than others, he only tried to give me a heart attack while others tried to ram me off the road)
he was going at approximately 40km/h, turning in and out of my lane (WITHOUT signalling, which justin told me is worth a FINE!! where's the fatimah/traffic police/police/whatever when you need them.), made me go so slowly i missed the green light, then more turning in and out of my lane (yes MY lane) and when on the happy occasion he was finally out of MY lane and i was finally overtaking him, he came dangeroulsy close to me and proceed to turn right when MY lane was for turning left. i should charge him for emotional turmoil or something. i swore i paid soo much attention to him (cause he was weaving in and out of my lane, not because he was gorgeous or what. am i so superficial?? come to think of it, there are no good looking taxi drivers around to even help redemn their reputation. hmmm. i digress.) and without realising, i would have ended up at some random kopitiam at which the driver decide to take a break and proceed to slash his car and tyres in some bitch fit.
of course there are other weird drivers around, one group of which are truly spectacular. they are the anyhow-turn-on-signal-lights-or-turn-on-the-wrong-signal-lights drivers. yes i know there is the fine for NOT turning on the signal lights, so these extremely cautious people just decided to leave their lights on at all times!! "yay!! no more fines right?? my signal is on!!" *slap* they signal left and turn right into MY lane. they dont signal and seeing what a low class driver i am (having a P-plate is like having the word "loser" pasted on the windscreen. drivers dont even see my car, all they see is this HUGE LOSER word drifting in the lane. it can be good though, some really nice people give way to us. but whether it is out of kindness or fear is another issue althogether), just cut into MY lane as though its THEIRS!! "got your name ah!?! *#@*&6!"
but taxi drivers are still the highlight of this post. they tried so hard to get my attention, surely they deserve more worthy mention.
one fine day while i was trying really hard to filter onto the always jammed AYE on my way home from NUS, i was blessed with a nice break in the traffic (the type that L-platers and P-platers will kill a driving instructor to have) and so i bravely entered onto the highway! so this grouchy taxi driver who was given the unpleasant surprise of having a HUGE LOSER word suddenly appearing on the highway in front of him, decided "wth!! what is that HUGE LOSER doing?! i better drive it off the road for the safety of everyone!!" and proceed to courageously drive next to the HUGE LOSER and edged ever so slowly towards it. the poor HUGE LOSER can only do what it can to stay alive and made a quick turn into the next lane. did i mention that the HUGE LOSER just filtered onto the highway?? there is no next lane!! so the HUGE LOSER drove into this divider thingy which would have led to an immediate failure during a driving test and a quick whack on the head by the driving instructor. but it's not the HUGE LOSER's fault!! the taxi driver was a fair distance away when the HUGE LOSER entered AYE ok!!
and the second time (or was this the first, cant really remb) a taxi driver tried to kill me, i wasnt even in my car!! i was just crossing the road (i know how to cross ok!!). i was in the middle of those small 2 lane roads which is quite scary with cars zooming around you but generally ok unless a stupid taxi decided to stop in your vicinity and the cars would have to drive onto the middle line which i was standing at to get their way around the stupid taxi. which is what happened. this wonderful taxi driver turned on his hazard lights (ya! anyhow turn on again!! *slap*) and proceed to SLOW down. so before i become a roadkill thanks to him, i decided to cross the road in front of the taxi. so now the taxi driver bu shuang!! "you want to cross the road??!! i'll kill you!!" and stepped on his accelerator and honk at me. the agile me jumped out of the way and continued walking to my destination as though nothing happened (dont want to cause a commotion you see, imagine the whole road being jammed cause i killed the taxi driver? not a pretty sight). at this point, i was some distance from the taxi which then drove up to me (i didnt even want to give him the satisfaction of cursing at me so i didnt turn to look at him. who knows what damage my eyes would have suffered?) and at some small distance ahead of me, he stopped again, to finally let the passenger off. this a probably a distance of 3m away from where he initially stopped? i am sure the passenger said "NOT HERE!! i want there!! 3 metres AHEAD!!" and the taxi driver just thought it would be a good idea to ram a person down in the process.
seriously.
i adore you to bits.
