Stuck On the Track

The train that I boarded broke down at Sembawang Station.
Just a stop away from where I boarded, darn.
As the train was completely stuck and couldn't move on its' own, we had to wait for the next train to "push" us.
After 30mins of patient waiting, we'r finally released from our confinement.
But things dun end there.
the passengers from next train had to alight as their train needs to drag our train off the track.
1st time in my life, I saw an "army" of people "stationing at the platform, wow.
when the next available train arrived, 70% of the people desperately squeezed into the train.
What's the point of doing that, i think to myself. we'r late anyway, and the next train will arrive in a couple of mins, so might as well wait for awhile.
I like my personal space.
and so that's how my morning began, arriving at school at 8.50 with a ridiculous excuse.
"My train broke down"
hahaha, sound like "My dog ate my homework".
anyway, gotta go back to work.

Wonder how much fine is SMRT going to get for the break down...
