Jinny! I know I've promise you that I'll be a guest blogger here since what, almost two weeks ago and till now, not a whiff of my scent can be found in your blog but fret not, here I am now =).
Have you guys ever paid RM 60 for a cab to somewhere just 3 kilometres away? It's crazy, I tell you. But for the first time in my life, I got to ride in a big yellow taxi. Big yellow taxi with plush leather settee. It's so comfortable that I almost don't want to get out of the taxi. Plus, the cab driver was so so so so professional. I've never seen a cabbie like him ever. He spoke to us formally and placed a huge emphasis on customer service. During the journey, he even shared some wisdom with us. The road we were using was blocked for some reason and he then told us that he has no choice but to take a longer alternative route. "There's always another road, in life too. I am already 50 years old and I know it. There's never a dead end." Okaaay. Thanks, Mr. Cab Driver. Though I still cannot comprehend the fact that we paid sixty Ringgit for the ride! But I got to sit in a big yellow taxi! Wheeee.
You know, I think I have an aversion to commitment. Commitment to relationships. Those boyfriend-girlfriend kind of relationships. It actually scares me. Alot. I don't know but I think there's something I about myself that I don't want to give away. This invisible tug to my heart that cries out in defense whenever it's being exposed. After a very painful previous relationship, it's hard for me to put my heart and soul into something that is so transient. Yes I'm a pessimist when it comes to this matter. I know it's not gonna last forever. And to actually believe that I'm not going to get hurt in the process. So. I still don't think I can do it. Sorry.
Oops. What was that all about. But it's great to get it off my chest. Thanks Jinny, for giving me this space to write and rant all I want. =P (I somehow find it too personal to write this in my own blog, haha. Hope you won't mind.) Yikes. I have a English Lit class to attend in less than an hour. There's going to be a test too. Double yikes. Will have to cram for it in the car I suppose. Wish me luck!

With a customer-friendly cabbie? the last time i remember striking a conversation with the cabbie was about the traffic and the weather.. sadly.. and the commitment thing, oh well, i do admit i have fears of commitments and stuff like that.. and that relationships now'll most likely end up prematurely.. but well, till your heart strikes the right chord, i guess somehow, the fears just go away.. haha, anyway, thank you for being a guest blogger.. till ur next guest blog here, good luck! and smile :D oh.. see ya tmrw! hah
