upset

[WARNING! This post contains complains and negative emotion.]

last Friday night was quite hell for me.

It was the first time I went back to Bogor not by train, neither by 'nebeng'.  So I asked my friend how to reach bogor by bus.  Cut the story short, I assumed there would be a direct bus from Semanggi to Bogor.  And so I went there and waited for the bus. tick tock tick tock. 5 minutes. 10 minutes. 15 minutes.  NO. I saw many buses passed by but didn't see any bus with Bogor sign on it.  I tried to recheck with 2 of my friends, one of them still saying that there should be a bus to bogor from my waiting spot.  After few minutes another friend confirmed me that there is NO direct bus to bogor.  You should go to Ps. Rebo first, which is actually not my route to Bogor.  Dang! Bad news.  Especially for me who actually rushing to catch a practice at 7PM in Bogor.  Time showed 6.15PM.  I just have no mood anymore. :'(

With literally no other option, I took the Ps. Rebo bus. As the seats were fully occupied, me and another mbak-mbak sat on the floor, with a newspaper below.  That wasn't so bad.  Unfortunately the traffic was, typical Friday night traffic.  I should faced it, that I would not be able to reach Bogor by 7PM.  Not even 8PM.  So I decided to cancel the rehearsal.  I was pissed off and irritated.  With the situation.

Reaching Ps. Rebo, people was everywhere and so do buses to different destinations.  Where is my bus? I was wondering.  After a while, big red bus came, 'Yeay, my bus is here'.  So I got in from the backside-door. Gosh! The bus was more than fullhouse.  I hardly moved inside, so dont expect to sit.  I stood at the corner, stood still at that position til I reach bogor.  Maybe the packed-ness is just the same as what happen in the train, but the problem with bus is, everyone is going to the same end destination, everyone stays until the end of the trip. and it was dark. Huhh.  But still, at the end I am fortunate enough to arrive at home safe.

what an experience.

and so I understand myself better.

I get upset when things did not happen according to plan.
