Cerified Old Hag
Hello! Its another boring Sunday afternoon. I just did some of the English exercise our MUET teacher gave. Boring stuff. I never thought I’d be doing multiple choice questions like that again after high school. They are quite a waste of time for me :P. I mean, come on. Flipping through pages going through the passages so many times give me a headache. Especially when you’re reading them upside down. Certainly not in a receptive mind right now.
Anyway, let me tell you about this old hag yesterday. She wasn’t old, really. She’s about my mom’s age, but I wouldnt call her that words that starts with a b and rhymes with stitch or the word that starts with w and rhymes with bore. Because I am a civilised person.
So I was driving down a three lane road see, heading for my Mandarin class. The road was meant to be two and the one on the right split into two as you get to the traffic light. So since I’m going straight I go into the middle lane from the left. But although the light was green, there was a bit of traffic in the middle lane, so naturally you have to slow down or you’ll be kissing the butt of the car in front of you. As I was joining this queue, somebody honked at me from behind.
For what? I don’t know. If I go any closer, I’d hit the car in front. So to stop this irritated driver from irritating me, I tried my best to close the gap between me and the car in front. After a while, the line moved more clearly and I kept hearing honking behind me. Like, two or three impatient honks. Annoyed, I slowed a little as I neared the traffic light and beside me, came a silver MPV with an Indian lady (with big curly hair) making hand gestures at me that means something like "don’t you know how to drive?!". Like, non stop, until I bypassed her and she turned to the right. I only waved my hand dismissively at her, which I think she didn’t notice, due to her constant hand gestures and big hair, probably. :P. I should just give her the finger and stick my tongue out at her, really.
So was this old hag teaching me how to drive? I don’t know what’s her problem. Because I really don’t care. After all, she’s just contemplating on things that could have happened, but didn’t happen. I imagine she always goes around teaching people how to drive like that. She could go and do that to everyone on the road if she pleases and I would be happy just watching her on the side. And occasionally, challenge ehr nerves :P. But I wouldn’t bother with rude drivers. So you complain about them, they nearly hit you, but didn’t. So what? Things like that happen all the time. But doing what she just did not only takes her attention off the road, it’s bothersome.
Therefore, she is a certified old hag. If anyone sees her on the road, please do her the courtesy of a honk from your car ;). She would really appreciate it.
I have no more story now. Ta’ra!
