patient driving...

now there's an oxymoron~
R frequently asks me how i can be so patient in almost all other situations except when i'm driving..
whereas, he is the most easy-going driver i know, next to my father..

why is it that whenever it rains, drivers near and far behave as if it's the first time they've seen water fall from the sky and, from what i gather can be the only reason why this happens so often, they then try to swerve away from the rain..
which, if one thinks about it, is ridiculously impossible... right????
yet~!!!! yet...
yet, we see accident after accident after vehicular wreck spilled over on the side of the roads..

and their so-called "accident" slows down traffic even further than the rain ever did in the first place ! ! !

arrrrrrgggggggggggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!

my patience is for things that are beyond my control...
like ignorant jerks that insist that i'm chinese and i need to go back to my country...
or
like when my wireless network goes down for no logical reason and won't come back up no matter what i do..

as much as that last scenario might really freak some people out, that seems like heaven compared to the driving skills, or the lack thereof, of half the city...

why? because in each situation i can just walk away from that particular asinine individual or impossible situation...
but driving... one does not drive alone in this land of highways and biways..
*grrrrrr...*
*sigh*

she won~!!!

to commemorate my unofficial and, no doubt, uneventful return to the blogging world,
i write a little bit about someone else, other than myself... =P

my little sista, a.k.a. zoe, won~
she entered into this fashion competition, and won~!
of course, it's pretty much all greek to me,
considering that 99% of the clothes produced in the fashion industry are not designed with my body type in mind...
ok, that may be overstating it, but those of u who kno wut i mean, kno wut i mean...

anyways, she won and i'm absolutely ecstatic for her..
not because of the fact that she's really good at what she does and has been obsessive about all things fashion ever since i knew her when we were wee little children...

but because she deserves it... she really does..
so, here's to u, zoe...
salut, cheers, and 건배~
