At the Bus Interchange

I had the privilege of taking 2 buses today. One from Tiong Bahru Plaza to Bt Merah Interchange, and another from Bt Merah Interchange to Mum's place. It is a rare experience for someone who usually drives on a daily basis. I feel like time goes slower when I wait for buses. Today, I waited for a REALLY long time before the bus arrived. I guess 15mins to me is a LONG time.

I was lugging supermarket groceries in both hands, and understood what it was like to bring groceries home on a bus. There were eggs, bread, milk, soya milk, Yakult, Scotts handtowels...it's not a lot, but you know, you can't mix dry and cold stuff, so you have to handle them separately.

Was really glad when I reached Mum's place with all the stuff, and felt relaxed for a quarter-day without the kids around...some personal time is good for the soul.
