Day 3 of work experience. An hour more to lunch time and then another 4 more hours of sitting at a desk, brilliant.

Surprisingly yesterday, I've managed to survive and get over the hell period of the day - 3:30pm. Maybe it was because I was intensely facebooking while blogging and munching on a packet of Ding Dongs. Either way, I managed to stay pretty awake until 5:30pm where I began to feel absolutely restless, bored and eager to go home. And the whole day I've been just thinking, "this is torture. this is hell". WELL, the real hellish moment hasn't even begun. That hellish moment came when I was on my way home. So here we go.

I walked to the bus stop and was lucky enough to make it onto the 6:05 pm bus. Okay so it doesn't have air con but I presume it'd be fine since it was evening anyway and without the sun, I'd be fine. I paid, boarded it and sat down. (The seats were lower than usual so my legs were kinda, just there instead of leaning onto them.)

The bus started slow but everything seemed fine. Hell broke loose when I realised the bus was moving a metre, and stopping for the next few seconds. Traffic jam? Fine. But what drove me nuts was the insane honking and traffic noises that could be heard outside (the windows were open) plus, the insane amount of pollution and smoke entering my body and clogging my pores. Everytime a bus moved past, it'd stop directly at my window where I can just smell and feel the heat from the exhaust pipe. Dis-gus-ting.

So I thought monday's bus was slow. Well, guess what. Yesterday's was even slower. I took a 6:21pm air conned (meaning, newer) bus on monday and arrived at about 7:20pm, an hour bus ride, okay that was expected. Yesterday, I took a 6:05pm non air conned bus ride and arrived at freaking 7:24pm. It was a bloody, 1 hour and 20 minute long, packed, dirty, polluted bus ride. Not cool. So guess what, I've given up on the hopeless bus transport and I'm going to try taking the train today. I'm sure it's going to be way faster, the only problem is, directions. I might just get lost. But anyway, I'd think about that later.

And now, for the main reason of my post today - I cam across a rather interesting, (kills my boredom a little) yet random site: GraphJam where ridiculous statistics are being posted up in charts and bar graphs. (That's how bored I am? YES.) I've even saved a few of my favourites and posted them below.








Well that entertained me for quite awhile and still is, along with another ridiculously funny site. I think I'm going to be glued on these two sites for a long time. And for those people who are so bored they feel like jumping out of the window? Here ye go: 1 and 2.

ENJOY.

You know what, I'm just glad it's wednesday, middle of the week and I only have 2 more days to go. Whoot!
