was trying to write a proper, eloquently-expressed entry on the fact that i saw a mynah bird (yellow breast and everything) when i happened to look up at the sky today. and then i was also trying to write, in equally expressive terms, on the reactions of the people around me when the bus broke down in the middle of the expressway- which was really kinda amusing cos everyone (yes, ashamed to say, including yours truly) were just suddenly glued to our seats, watching the driver as he struggled to jump-start the bus, as though we were all incredibly surprised that an efficient and dependable mode of transport could actually break down in the middle of nowhere AND experiencing a simultaneous wave of indignation of seeing another same-numbered bus filled with similar bug-eyed people just speeding past us after slowing down to get a closer look at the almost pathetic souls in the almost dead monster of a vehicle.


and then i stopped writing the original more-long-winded-than-this entry halfway cos i realised that i was trying too darn hard to be literature-esque. hahahh. silly me.
