5 types of people you meet on MRT

I prefer taking bus than trains because the peak hour train ride is super crazy! Luckily I don’t work at CBD areas, if not I will have to face the crowd and SQUEEEEZZEEEEE myself into the train every morning and evening.

I met weird people on the train before and I was still sharing my worst experiences with my friends this afternoon. Let me share with you 5 weird people I have met.

Type 1: People who are always lacking of sleep

Okay, it is common for us to feel tired and sleepy. Also common for us to fall asleep if the train ride is too long. But can you keep your head to yourself? What if your dandruffs fall onto my shoulder?!?!

Or like the picture below, see the guy cute then act sleepy and then lie on his shoulder…. *SMACKS HEAD*





Type 2: People who seems to be deaf

Some people plays music so loud that we can even hear them on their headphones. But to me, that is not as bad as playing it on the phone straight without plugging in any earphones.

Sometimes I feel like going… “Hey, I am not interested in your kind of music!”

What are they trying to prove?





Type 3: Bag made of gold

How about those that takes up 2 seats. 1 for themselves and 1 for their bags?

WAH, DID YOU JUST PAY DOUBLE FOR YOUR BUS FARE?????

Type 4: Priority citizens, I call them

I do respect senior citizens A LOT. And I will not hesitate to give up my seats to people who need it for than me (even if I am not sitting at a priority seat).

But woah, I have seen so many cases myself on how those aunties can demand for a seat by asking the youngsters to get up. The thing is… they don’t even look older than 55?

Vice versa, I hate it when I don’t have a seat and some youngsters who have one, pretends to sleep or use the phone just to avoid giving up their seat. That is so uncool.
Type 5: Lunatics

I am not kidding when I say I saw them on the train. I had one encounter myself.

All these happened when I was on the way home after a manicure session. I was looking at how blings my nails were. I was also conscious that someone was singing and dancing away in the cabin next to mine.

She was dancing from cabin to cabin. Suddenly, she walked over and gave me a kick on my leg and went “YOU THINK YOUR NAILS VERY NICE AH?” and danced away happily again.

My friend’s sister got punched for no reason too.





With so many commuting woes, how many solutions are there to help you overcome them one by one, or ALL at one go?

How about using Grab Taxi?

Don’t worry about anyone going one big round because the rates are fixed and this makes them most affordable chauffeured ride in Singapore. The cars are safe and clean and you can even expect BMW in GrabCar Economy too!!

There will be an Instagram Contest from 18 October 2015 onwards. All you have to do is to post a #squeefie with a funny caption to get a promo code which you can use for your next #GrabSG experience!

More details will be announced on Facebook and Instagram. Remember, Grab, Don’t Squeeze.
