all the time in the world
been forever since i wanted to write something in this blog
been forever since the last time i have 5 free hours that i can spend on my own. that i HAVE to spend, actually
and here it is. Jakarta (’s traffic) has been really nice to me in the past many years. if someone on his first trip to Jakarta trapped in 15 hours traffic jam, i’m cool -never happened to me. if someone trapped in the famous latest Big Jakarta Flood from 2 pm and only reach home by 4 pm, on the next day (!), i’m cool -never happened to me.
and suddenly what happened to me just now seems nothing. i went to airport from the heart of the city 3 hours before my flight. and it wasnt on rush hour, so i assume i’ve put a safe buffer. but wrong. Jakarta was somehow -no rain, no flood, only silly toll-road construction in the middle of the day- was in a super-jam. it took me exactly 3 hours to reach airport, and by the time i was there i still can see the cute valuair plane was about to taking off. (i wish i can jump off the cab and run into the plane, just like jim carrey in liar-liar). i can only waved to it *sour smile*
but again, it seems nothing. considering i’ve meet people have been stuck for 7, 12, 15, or 26 hours in Jakarta traffic, 3 hours seems not bad at all!!
*yay* *second thot, its a sour yay* why? hmmm my flight was a valuair (budget airlines, got it? so no refund and not changeable). so i had to buy a new one with doubled price..
i just want to go home. 2 more hours to kill to get into my flight, and i’m missing mum badly. and i’m not even going home tonight.
singapore, am coming..
