Notable Passengers

Meaning they leaves a lasting impression on my mind. Hard to forget them.


Passenger No 1.


If you think greeting "Good Morning" then getting a "what is so good about this morning, I got to work, got to feed my family" is having a bad day. Wait till you read the following.

Pick up an "ang mo" and his local girl friend from Bugis junction before 5pm. Going to the condo beside TTS medical center. On the way, the ang mo starts complaining about the service he received in Singapore with 4 letter words.

When he gets off the taxi. I was thinking to make his day better. So I send him off with a "You have a good day, sir"

He replied,"you are not going to get a tip from me by saying good day".

His girl friend pay me the fare of $7.20 exact to the cent.

I was stunted like vegetables.(watch this on youtube)


Passenger No 2.

A hot and humid Sunday afternoon. Picked up this woman along avenue 6 of Woodlands. Her destination is the columbarium at Choa Chu Kang. 
Along the way, we start up a conversation why she is visiting the columbarium on a Sunday afternoon.
Her sister passed away about a year ago. She afraid she might be lonely there, so by visiting her once a month, she wants to speak to her beside her urn. She kept on telling me how her sister has been a good daughter and they were very close as siblings.
She will meet with another mother who's daughter's urn is a few columns away. They have become good friends as they will visit on the 4th of every month.

After dropping her off, I stopped outside the columbarium and stared at rows of tomb stones. What a beautiful world God has created.
