Telepon bijak - part 2

i utang a post on 'telepon bijak-part 2'.  Coincidentally, this situation seems to fit the title.

My car was 'kissed' by another car last friday.  Luckily it was just the plate number.  I was calmed, no shouting or cursing involved, just some accusation that she was using her phone while driving - and it turned out to be true.  The front part of her car was badly damaged.  It must have cost her a lot to repair those.  I changed the plate number the next day and sent her the receipt via whatsapp.  She promised to pay me when she came back from outstation - and she did yesterday. 


Years back, di zaman2 mula kerja; i had a colleague yang selalu tolong orang kat hiway.  He said that dia hope satu hari nanti if anything happened to him atas jalan maka ada yang akan tolong dia.  I remembered that until today.  Whenever i saw nails on the road, i would always pick and throw them far away.  Of course i don't want it to punch my tyre, but i also hope that it won't punch anyone else's car.


So that day, i said to myself that i'm not gonna be hard on her.  One day, it might happen to me, and i don't want anyone to be shouting at me. 


We (PK and me) use phone all the time while driving.  Tengok pesbuk, instagram, youtube bagai.  I still think that the best time to talk over the phone is while driving.  Cuma masalahnya, i never use handsfree.  The moment i open the box bila beli handphone baru, my eyes would always be glued on the phone, not the accessories; hence the reason why they were always tossed away together with the box in some drawer or under the bed.  Nowadays, with PK's increasing time of sleeping time in the car, i'm often left with half eyes open while driving.  Singing is a good way to kill that sleepy mode.  Tapi kan, lama mana sangat la kita  boleh nyanyi sorang2.  Lain la kalau ada orang tepuk tangan lepas setiap kali kita habis nyanyi.  Bersemangat la sikit kan.  Anyway, googling and reading statuses are absolutely good to wake you up.  Macam2 orang post kat pesbuk, and waktu tu jugak la u think is the best time to tengok.  Kat rumah idak le pulak nak belek sangat benda2 tu, maklum la ... kat rumah kan banyak lagi urusan rumahtangga which needs our attention.  Anak2 buat sepah, nak sapu mop lantai segala.  Mana sempat nak belek2 status bagai.  Oh btw, a friend asked me before how i spend my 'lonely' nights (she put it that way, not me!) - tak kan tengok pesbuk je?  I have tempted to say these : First, my nights aren't 'lonely'.  I got tired clearing and cleaning the house that by the time i finish, i can barely open my eyes anymore.  So i don't have time to feel lonely.  Second, pesbuk isn't my favorite way to kill my time.  I have wayyy more interesting things to do.  But, since she's in errr... quite unstable state of mind, maka i decided to just ignore and told her that it is not a bad situation at all being alone.  I don't know if i can convince her.


Anyway, the lady told me that it was also her heels that caused the minor accident.  Kesimpulannya, do not pegang phone, or do not pakai heels, or do not eat, drink, sing, talk or anything that can distract you if you are the type yang kena ada full concentration semasa driving.


Sekian :)
