Frankly...it's not by choice. I couldn't find an empty taxi and having walk from Sing Siong to the main road. After waiting for more than 15 mins...the bus came along so I decided to give it a try. Bus no 88 from AMK Ave 5 ( beside seagate ) to Marymount Rd. When I got down....immediately got up another bus no 852 to Bt Timah Road. POWER....the whole journey took me about 45 min including waiting time and it costed me less than $2.00 and the bus is not crowded but kind of bone-shaking old.
One thing...good was that I had the time to look out of the window and noticed the things I never had the time to see or notice. Esp at Bt Timah near Ave 6....that there were quite a few nice shops for makan then the condos and the huge houses along Bt Timah Rd.
Thinking of taking the bus again to come to work...but rained heavily so took a cab. Maybe tomorrow if no rain...I will take the bus again. A nice slow ride and do some people watching hehehe!!!
Yes now....I am covering for my counter-part Mariana for the whole shift....instead of just working half day job since got no transport to go home at 1am.
Since not rushing home to play shares....mah! No point to waste $20 for cab...that incl tip hahaha.
ReplyDeleteThe fare from work to home...or the other way round is about $18.50
ReplyDeleteOh...that amount incl peak hour charges. Without the charges...only cost about $12.80 to $13
ReplyDeleteMore or less...decided not to go against my wife regarding the rental car thing. So....just take the bus or taxi for the next 3 weeks lor.
ReplyDeleteAfter that...then I shall give my answer whether our transport system is ok or not!
What? Has from sing siong? Who has from sing siong these days??
