Well, on friday, I went to IT Show @ Suntec with my friends n sisters. I have to wait til Jo n Jan off work, so we met up @ 7pm. After buying our cds @ Cd Rama, we went to Suntec. The whole place was very crowded lah. The slow traffic started from Suntec through Citylink, all the way to the MRT station lah.
Never mind that. When we got the to escalator overhead-bridge, the traffice was pratically jammed. So we decided to get over by another way. We initially wanted to cross-over from Marina de, but the short-cut route lead us to the main road.
Already there's a lot of ppl (i mean really A LOT of ppl wor) waiting for the chance to cross the road, but there's too many cars. As there's too many ppl standing there, we walked further down the road where fewer ppl stood waiting. Over there, we managed to squeeze to the front, all except me n my youngest sis. There's a young girl standing in front of me. We stood there observing the traffic and i noticed the road in front was starting to slow down, which would eventually lead to a jam. I informed Jan n Jo abt it, so they would be prepared to cross when time comes. i even comment to both of my sis, "On times like these, when we were to cross the road with soooo many cars, only the Vietnamese would be able to do it."
Finally the traffic slowed down and the last car that caught in the jam was just after where i stood, so i grabbed my youngest sis and ran across. However, that didn't happened. As i said before, there's a young girl in front of me, if i ran across, i would bump into her and she would fell.
As i hesistated a bit, my er-mei and her friend took the opportunity and dash across the road. Soon after they took off, i grabbed my sis and squeezed past the young girl and ran across too. Jan n Jo took off after me, and soon, the whole bunch of ppl that was stranded over there ran across too. The cars even had to stop to let the whole bunch pass.
My er-mei n her friend were the superwoman that night, helping those ppl cross the road. HaHa... She even told me, she vaguely heard ppl say "Wa, those girls so da-dan, like that run across the road. Bu pa si ah."
HaHa....That night was one of the most thrilling night ever.
