Okay, I know that today was sectionals for TPJC so I decided to go.
Brass sectionals - 3pm to 5pm.
The usual naive me supposed that going from Toa Payoh to Tampines SHOULD take about an hour, so I decided to board 28.
28 came at 14 10. Oh s***! 10 minutes late.
I brushed that off and lala the bus took off.
Justin sms-ed me halfway, with this sms
*Paraphrasing* "Call me when you reach school"
I thought he meant call him when I reached TPJC... and it wasn't until when I told him that the bus just went past the Paya Lebar MRT station that I realized that what he meant was
CALL HIM WHEN THE BUS IS AT MSHS!
Gosh... Klutz signal (1)
Okay, so he said he's gonna be super late so he decided not to go.
OMG?
That leaves me, alone, in a whole group of people who are at least 2 years older than me... Bad bad bad...
But still, I decided to go.
So lalala the bus SLOWLY moves on... onward to Tampines.
I sms-ed Mr. Chiang at about 14 50+ saying that I'm gonna be late cos 28 was only at Bedok. Obviously I didn't know that Bedok was like next to Tampines or something.
Klutz signal (2)
So, 28 was in Tampines! Now, Tampines is so freaking huge it has like 9 avenues and 40+++ streets that I got blown away. Anyway, I do know that TPJC is in Avenue 9 so I waited for 28 to be at that area.
I alighted at the so called Ave 9 but oh gosh I was in some HDB area.
Klutz signal (3)
The time was 15 15 and I wandered around Street 41 of Tampines while endeavoring to find a bus stop that had a 29. I finally found one after making one turn and walking a lot.
The problem is, before I made the turn, I saw a 29 past me.
Meaning? I'll need for about 15 minutes for another 29 to come.
15 15, another 15 min makes it 15 30... assuming the bus trip takes about 15 min, I'll reach TPJC at 15 45! And it's not the end cos there's some uber slope to cover... meaning I'll reach the band room at approx 16 00.
Deciding that it was gonna be a waste of time if that was true, I crossed the road and boarded some random bus with 3 digits to get to Tampines Central.
Then, I decided to take a MRT to get back to Toa Payoh.
Guess what guys? Taking an MRT is MUCH MUCH MUCH faster to get to Tampines from Toa Payoh than to take 28!!!
28 --- about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
MRT --- about 30 minutes.
Hmph. Like omg I was laughing at my own stupidity.
Klutz signal (4)
So I didn't go for the sectionals, despite me wanting to go.
Mr. Chiang called me at um 18 45.
He told me it'd be faster if I took the MRT instead and the only thing I could say was 'I figured that out on my way home when I took the MRT"
And all he could was to laugh, a lot.
Like LOL.
Oh well.
I'll know what to do next time.
I am a Klutz!
But I'm Agent JX too...
So I guess I'm a Klutzy Agent lol.
Yep that ends the day.
Listened to music @ 11:38 PM
