Everyday for sahur, I gotta battle my way into finishing up a 500ml bottle of water. It's a battle, coz I'd always feel like puking my guts out after sucessfully downing the entire content. And feeling so bloated after that. If not for being very paranoid (of not being able to survive without having substantial amount of fluid in my body), I wouldn't bother. Plus my lips gets so cracked and dried so easily, the only two lip balms I've got are utterly useless. One's on the verge of a nervous breakdown, the other is watermelon. So what if that does not make sense..?
Last night, I watched with great curiosity, those cones dotting the first lane at the main road. It could be anything. Late night construction work etc etc. But I just hadta conclude that it was a speed trap, seeing that nearly all the vehicles slowed down when approaching the takeoff line. I don't know where the takeoff line is to be exact. I'm just guessing it's the point near the taffic light. Where speed demons pile up on their gear power and letting their cars give out that incredibly high-pitched shriek just to prove their prowess. Close enough to allow anybody living on the 25th floor about 800m away to hear them that is.
Ok, so I watched with much amusement as all the vehicles slowed down upon reaching the area with those cone barricades. I even managed to capture them on video but thanks to my camm's lacklustre quality, there's really nothing much to show. Just the darkness and moving lights, as in headlights. Why am I so keen into believing that it's a speed trap? Coz lately those loud shrill coming from the speed demons whizzing past the main road has not only gotten unbearable, but it has somehow increased, making its guest appearance almost everyday. I'd like to think some irate residents have made a complaint or something. Then there are times when I wish that I could actually witness those superpowers make a double flip right before my eyes. Speed trap or not, I don't know for sure. I woke up for sahur only to see that the cone barricades had already been removed.
Of course getting my mind so meddled up with what's going on, on the road, ended up in me getting the weirdest dream ever. I dreamt of a massive roadblock at my neighbourhood area. Coz there was some important events going on. Or something...? Ayy, like what event could be supremely important in the heartland ehhh? They made use of ropes to cordon the roads from any incoming vehicles. Yes, ROPES. What the hell. Haha!
