I paid $70 for a taxi to get to work today. On the way home I took public transport.
I found a box with my name.
And that was what was inside it! Since we are not having a Christmas do this year work decided to send us each a hamper.
Kind of brightened my day. Today was a good day. Not too busy and not too messy. Just the right amount of work.
On the way home I picked up my take away since my train wasn’t going to come til 6:32pm.
I finished at 6pm. It took me 17 minutes to get to the restaurant. Then another 5 minutes to back track to the station. I had about 7 minutes to spare before my train came.
I got back to the city at around 7pm. By the time I walked to the tram stop (2 blocks from the station), waited til 7:15pm, hopped on one, walked home (12 minutes walk), I didn’t get home til 7:45pm.
It took me an hour and 3/4 to get home by public transport. Costed $4:50! As opposed to a $70 taxi fare that takes about 30 minutes! Well that’s stretching it! May be 40 minutes.
One week down only 3 more weeks to go! I miss the convenience of having a car. Guess I can’t give it up as yet.
You made me Google “Ricci’s Bikkies” to see what that’s all about. You’re LUCKY. 😉

Did I? Apparently the olives are not bad either. I’ve donated them and only kept the chocolate for Mr Wanderer. Funny that you think I’m lucky. My parents also think that. They think I’m a dog that yawns flies. A saying in Viet which means I just sit there and things goes my way.

I was tempted to eat the chocolate since it was a long trip home!
