EXAMine the driver

i dunno where to start...

ok, ahem... today's a little bit disappointing to me, why? coz instead of being home by 12pm or earlier, i got home by 3pm! this is caused by changing the examination time by 3 hours late!

anyway, as what i usually say, there must be nothing that would make me mad... i shouldn't let anything make my life miserable! hah! in our exam, i did my best, i studied my lessons and gave what i could in answering the test. i have no grudge about it, though i won't deny that some items were confusing to me. still, i'm confident with my answers.

i always wanna write something about jeepney drivers but it's only today that i finished concluding some points about them. i think that jeepney drivers are dexterous, why? consider the following points:

1. they know how to drive properly [with or without swerving]...
2. while driving, they can engage themselves in a chat with their immediate passenger...
3. they can respond to the other passengers' questions about the whereabouts of a certain place...
4. they can accommodate lots of bayad po behind them...
5. they can check if there are any commuters in the sidewalk who want to hop in...
6. they can stop the jeepney almost immediately if someone says sa tabi po or para sa tabi...
7. they can change their front tags at certain times [as to where the jeepney will go]...
8. they can spot police officers / traffic enforcers whenever they are planning to violate traffic rules...
9. they can be the barker themselves when no barker is available...
10. they can return one's change, if there's any, without being confused [most can do this]...
11. they can pinpoint who hasn't paid the fare yet [some only guessed]...
12. they can remember where they are gonna drop-off their passengers [if requested]...

...even more!

...all these they can do while driving! impressive huh!? have you ever noticed these points too?
