My Favourite Bumpy Old Train

It was a real big decision I made for myself, a fast and furious one. The politics were a havoc nowadays and yet, right before 916, I decided to take the train up to the city. A girl, big looking yet fragile in mind, seriously I found nothing wrong travelling by myself at the middle of the night.

Fortunately, journeys via trains are so much more secured compared to buses, even though it means you'll have 8 hours of butt-bumping enjoyment. But to me, it's perfectly fine, I even doubt if I'll snore inside the train ( Laugh out LOUD)!




Pathetic me right! I was snuggling comfortably in my bed yet I still forced myself to sketch out something! But it was actually an unusual fun, especially when I was alone.




I was on the upper decker ( How do you say when you're sleeping upstairs of the double decker bed??) and secretly took a picture of this uncle reading his Singapore newspaper=p



Basically, the train is clean ( besides the lavatory), quiet and a nice choice of transportation. Me like me like!



There were a few Caucasians down there, reading our LAT Kampung Boy comics! I felt so touched that the foreigners do appreciate the local art afterall.

Well, if you tell me that trains are really old fashioned and darn slow, you're absolutely wrong. I feel like I'm a backpacker, enjoying the process of the journey rather than haphazardly trying to reach your destination as fast as possible. I mean, what's the point of travelling yeah? My my, I should do more of this!

And right now, you can even book your tickets online! http://www.ktmb.com.my/.
