I seriously enjoy all the festive holidays…but needless to say, I hate it before it arrives. Since like a month ago, the traffic has been bad. Due to our *you know who* friends gotta starve everyday and then pig-out during dinner, everyone tries to rush home to be on time to buka puasa. If you leave the office 5 mins late, that’s it!!
And to add salt to the wound, my MIL stays in TTDI. I’ve gotta fetch the kids from her place on the way home. And they’ve got this famous Pasar Ramadhan there. Well, I don’t mind the food, but it’s really creating a lot of traffic jam in TTDI itself!! Why can’t people park and shop properly. Gotta double triple park!!
So when Friday came, I thought, at last…most of the people are gone by now. But i was so so wrong. I left my office at 6pm+ on Friday after dropping off Annie at the carpark. The rain has stopped, but LDP in a standstill. So I decided to take penchala link. The hartamas there was jammed too, but wasn’t that bad, at least still moving. Once pass the toll, I was so relieved cause it was so smooth…
Then suddenly I saw in front, the road heading towards Damansara Perdana and Tesco was on a standstill!! Arghh..again I took a detour and turn to the other side to join at Bandar Utama.
I was supposed to turn at the 1u junction, but it was jam too, so I took the turn after that, made a U-turn and finally manage to cut thru at TV3. I head towards Centerpoint only to find that it’s also jammed!!!
By then it’s already 7pm+ and I’m so tired. My car not auto mah, so that left and right leg is really soring by now. And I’m dead hungry and also needs to go to the loo.
The rain has started again. I decided to take a break in Centerpoint. Had my dinner and packed dinner for the family from there too. I think I took a 15mins break, then on the road again, still jam!! Arghh…
But this time I’m more smart, I bought a magazine from a shop in Centerpoint. So while getting stucked there, I started reading. At last..finally, I reached home like 8pm+ and it was raining so heavily, got myself all wet though I had my umbrella.
Faythe was crying (scared of thunder) and was hanging on to me…Daddy as usual wants his dose of dinner. Haiyoo…so exhausted. What a day…Swearing & cursing still.
I left office at 7.20pm and reach my nanny house within 35 mins, surprisingly no jam from Bkt Bintang to Kepong.
same here on my way back to cheras. the pasar ramadhan is the culprit and of course you know who la… starved the whole day and then pig out and then must create havoc on the road by driving like some mad pigs!cis, luckily i have to endure one more day… tomorrow last day liow!
It’s the same everywhere even here in Pg. I gotto leave the office before 545pm or i will be caught in the terrible jam. Can’t wait traffic to return back to normal after the hols.
ayooo..so jia latt..must change car ledi leh..i remember the last time i was driving a manual car n stuck in a jam i had to stop at a petrol station to shee shee n there was someone inside the toilet showering!! Warao eh..i can never forget that incident where I nearly wet my pants!
Yalo, those pig people always like to park their cars at their own desire, i hate Friday sembayang too, those cars just parked like at their own houses, it’s 3 lanes road but only leave 1 can use. If we park like this sure kena saman LOL!
Festive season always causes jam. I got caught in the jam on Saturday afternoon. Yes, KK’s jam is probably 50% as bad as KL’s jam.
I know how you feel. Hubby was complaining too when he went back home to fetch me and Brae for a dinner at MIL’s house. At the end, we didn’t make it to her house and ended up at hubby’s office and had our dinner nearby.
it’s real chisin hor – for the 2 hrs, on a normal drive, you would have reached Melaka liao. 😉
jeffererene: whoa…that’s fast, lucky soul 🙂
angeline: yalorr…i’m so so glad it’s finally over mannn
shooi: oo..penang also jam huh, i thought chinese area would have been better
laundryamah: aiks…mandi in the toilet!! That fella must be some kinda lorry driver 😛
huisia: yes, totally agree with u on that
julian: oo..at least i think KK can still move huh, not standstill
babykhong: yalor..after jam so long i guess all the mood oso gone
nyonyapenang: precisely!!!
Selamat Hari Raya and no more jam for you. I really don’t understand that “some” ppl get their dinner so early when they cannot eat it until 2 hours later. Why the rush?
