Sigh... it's bad

So you might wonder: "why the negative title". Well, that's just how I feel right now. My mind is occupied with alot of stuff that I see and hear, and alot of it is bad...

Let's look at this morning. Here I'm driving, coming off Modderdam Road ito, well, Modderdam Road (North). This guy on the inside lane is trying to cut me off. Why? I think he is just one of the many sad, angry, frustrated people found on the Cape Town roads. Anyway, I decide that being cut off is not an option, kap it back into 3rd gear and take the gap infront of me, since the lane I'm in is merging with the inside lane. So he also decides to speed up, determined in his quest to _iss off someone on a Thursday morning. He fails.

So now I'm travelling all hunky dorey. This guy now decided: "I'm not done with you u happy guy. I shall make you unhappy....like me". So at the first opportunity, he cuts in infront of me and gives me some hand signals. You know which one. Me, I'm cool as a cat, because in his blind moment of silly rage, he didnt look where he was going. He ends up behind a truck. Now I change lanes and get into the lane moving much faster :) Idiot. hehehe. Im still cool as a cat, chilled and when I pass him, I give him a gentle, friendly I'm-not-purturbed-and-wont-get-upset-with-you smile. He returns the favour with some more hand signals. LOL. Idiot. He's one of the many stressed out people on the Cape Town roads. People, it's 8am. Relax!

Well, I don't feel like talking about the rest of the "bad" stuff anymore. I feel vidicated now that I put my experience and thoughts to words. Hopefully we can all learn to relax and be more curtious and friendly. I know, it sounds cheezy... so what? it's what I feel and think. It's not much, but hey, let's hear what u think...
