Today as usual at 10am I was waiting for my father to take his car at the multi-storey car park to send me to my weekly religious class but unfortunately he called saying that he cannot start the car at all. He said that each time he started the car, the car engine sounded very funny. So he said that we were forced to take the taxi. Luckily I was not that late. I was actually early by two minutes!
This incident had made me think of how important and convenient it is to have our own car to travel to places easily. All this while I never give a thought about the other people like my friends who have to take public transport to go to school and other places. Some of my friends had no cars to travel to places. So this incident also made me appreciate more about my father having the car. While I was in class a mechanic from AA came and repaired and replaced my father’s car battery.
Thankfully, my father was able to fetch me after class by car. I know I sounded so pampered by my father but I was tired after the class. I was just very glad that I could take a car rather than wait for the bus (no offence to those who usually take public transport almost everyday).
In the evening, I went to Pasir Ris Park with my family to learn how to ride a bicycle. It was quite embarrassing as I could see younger children who already knew how to ride a bicycle. Now, it’s not going to be embarrassing for me anymore. Today was only my second lesson (the first lesson was last Saturday at East Coast Park, but it was too crowded so we decided to go to Pasir Ris Park instead. Furthermore it is near my house in Pasir Ris St 21) but after numerous tries I was successful in riding the bicycle all by myself! It is an accomplishment which I thought I would never achieve. Tomorrow I shall try to perfect my ride again at the same place.
That is all I have to say for today.
