today i got lost in bishan after going to bishan library.
i tell you, you put me in a bishan place other than J8, i will get lost. seriously. i've been trying to remember where is where for the past 3 years? yeah.but to no avail. bishan is a huge maze. (like pasir ris)
ok well.i was not really lost.i just took the wrong bus.because i didn't know is it the green or white 410 that takes me to bishan park faster.which is well.and i didn't know any other buses in the bishan bus interchange or whatever other than 410 and 52 (both of which i know pass by sin ming?)
yup so.i was thinking and thinking of taking the green or white. and i cannot see the board cos too many people were around that board area and i looked at the map which prove no help at all because it did not state the direction of the 410s.
so when the green plate came, i was waiting to get onboard (there was a freakishly long queue) and then this woman came and asked me whether this bus goes to this 24hr supermarket or something. lol man. i do not know whether this bus goes by the thomson or sin ming myself.and she's asking me? and i don't know any other place in bishan other than J8...24hr supermarket?lol.
and then after i board the bus, i realised this was the wrong one. and i was panicking cos everything looked so alien. and i dont know where the bus will take me (im not even sure whether it will go by bishan park).
but luckily, it got out of bishan and to thomson! then i took 166 home.
this bus ride has its advantages.i found out that there are 4 ways to go home from bishan.
1) take mrt to amk, change bus home
2) take 86 ( i think) to amk, change bus home
3) take 410 white to opposite bishan park and walk through bishan park to home
4) take 410 green to upper thomson and take 166 or smth home
the thing is, where i live is so near bishan and then..THERE IS NO STRAIGHT BUS TO BISHAN FROM HERE.sickening.
yups.other than the other ways i found out, i found out that guangyang primary and secondary are in bishan when i thought they were in some ulu place like tampines or jurong. and i also found out that kuo chuan presbyterian secondary and primary are around the corner from J8 when i thought they were near presbyterian secondary in yio chu kang or smth.and i found out that alot of the passengers of 410 green get down at this stop where there are alot of brown and yellow and white blocks. and i found out where bishan street 12, 13, 14, 15 are.but i still dont know where is bishan street 21. and bishan street 21 is the only street in bishan i know until today.
never to take 410 green.
