Tenth Day of Ramadan : Out of My Comfort Zone

It was Tuesday. The car was still in the workshop. A few colleagues and friends offered me a ride to office. I declined.
I walked from my house to the KTM station and took komuter train to office instead. Yeah, there are buses that ply the route to the KTM station but oh what's wrong with a little bit of walking?

Zaini walked with me, of course.

Anyway, the 30 minutes walk was nothing to sweat of, but I decided to sulk and pout at Zaini. Just because. HAHAHA

Poor guy. Not his fault the car got into an accident and the workshop took longer than promised to get the car ready.

Anyway, he just ignored my sulking and behaved normally because he knows I'll cool down soon. I hate that guy somethimes. But I lurrvvve him too. *dush*

Talking about comfort zone... With reports of robberies, mugging, snatch thefts, kidnapping...
If we are all so alarmed at our safety, why do most of us stayed glued to our gadget screen whenever we have the chance. Walking, crossing the road, driving?

Stop looking at the blasted screen and be aware of your surrounding instead!
That's all for today.

Maaf zahir batin. ^^

    1. Cannot say nowhere is safe. Also cannot say everywhere is safe.
      But what we can do is being vigilant and smart about our OWN safety. :-)

  2. The entire world has been reduced to a few square inches. It's just ... gaaaaa!

    I'm glad, however, for the reassurance that it's not just Japan that's obsessed with mobile phones.

    PS: Please tell me you were not wearing high heels during this walk!

  3. "He just ignored my sulking and behaved normally because he knows I'll cool down soon." I think Zaini and The Hero are twins.

  5. if there is public transport like train to go to your office straight away, then i don't think that's too inconvenient also lah.. sometimes i'd also rather take public transport than to trouble friends or colleagues.. :)

    1. True also.

      At least its just walking to station from.y house only and I don't need to transfer to another line or take a bus to get to office.

  6. but seems like you were not bothered by the "exceptional" service of the KTM huh?? or have they really improved a lot?? i remember i used to have to wait for at least 30 minutes, and more than an hour is quite common, for the train and just a merely 5 minutes journey from KL Sentral to MV..

    1. This time I was lucky, I guess.

      I only waited for less than 10minutes each time for the train.

      I've once spent 1.5 hours for a journer from MV to KTM Serdang. 1 hour waiting for train. O.O

    2. that's Keretapi Terlalu Melampau lah.. it's really very frustrating to waste an hour waiting for the train..

  8. hahaha, very true about that lah.. nowadays with almost everyone holding a smartphone on hand, i guess more than half of them cannot keep their hands off it and their eyes off the screen.. i must confess i'm one of those sometimes.. which i have to admit, not safe lah, because when we are so concentrated on the phone, we tend to relax and not be alert on surrounding threats..

    1. Itulah...
      That's why I always leave my phone behind or just keep it in my handbag when I'm out.

      Plus, no need to act so busy play games while walking or on the lift. :-D

      Some even watch movies while walking. Life do busy izit?

    2. i don't play games while walking, i only busy whatsapping the most..

  9. well, it's just for the time being. Everything will be back to square one once the car is fixed. Be patient and enjoy your walking. After all, it's not Zaini's fault. Have a nice day walking.. :)

    1. I did! :-)

      Of course it's not Zaini fault but it's good to "blame" him sometimes. LOL

      You never acted like that and secretly love how your hubby tried to placate you, Wenn? ;-)

    1. but sometimes got to queue or wait for the car leh...

      Actually thot can settle in a few day's time so it wasn't an issue at first but then, it took longer than expected.

      Delete
  12. No car? Alamak.. Patah kaki..
    Anyways, most people take things easy - until something happened to them. So, if they have never been mugged before they'll continue texting or calling while walking and not caring for their surroundings. Sometimes they need other people to knock senses into their heads.
    Happy Weekend! :)

    1. Dapatlah revisit the "ohsem" public transport in KL balik. Takkan foreign workers je yang guna public transport kannnn? HAHAHA

      Yes, agree. But then, these are the same people who'd make the most noise about Malaysia being totally unsafe and yet, they show complete ambivalence about safety precautions themselves. :(

      Delete
  13. Sorry to hear about the accident. Glad that nobody was hurt. Ohhhh.... I dislike sweating when I get into office. :)

    1. Yeah, nobody was hurt and that's why I consider it a minor incident. ^^

  14. Nowadays I take public transport whenever I am back in Malaysia - mostly LRT and monorail, on/off KTM. Among the 3 unfortunately, KTM is probably the worst - in terms of crowd and punctuality :/

    1. Unfortunately, yes... KTM sucks. Pity. :(

      Though, monorail come a close second to KTM.
