my first visit to Bangi by KTM Comuter (ways to start a journey when you never know how)

yesterday, i went to my cousin's house in Bangi, Selangor. she is my so-called cousin and the only one that lives nearby me in Shah Alam. currently she's pregnant her third child and is living in Bandar Seri Mahkota, Bangi.

however, i never went there alone (even with family... only couple of times...2..3..)  and luckily i had Ina as my company... hm.. if it happened that i lost, haha... i, at least had her along with me.

with only a hint of " u take the next stop after UKM", strong-heartedly, i paved my way at 10.30 am. u know, for 1 year i'm in shah alam, the only usual route i take is from KL Central to KLIA or KL Central to Shah Alam. see?? and i only used the KTM komuter twice! the one i used to go to Sunway Piramid with my friends...all 4..5 of us! and last week, for KL Central-Mid Valley one way stop.

hm...and now, i have to hurdle my way alone..since Ina also is clueless about the comuter KTM thingy.
hm... however, the people, the city hustle, the map, help us a lot.

hence, first thing to do when you don't know how to start your journey is by trying to reach a counter. regardless it is a Qs counter, a ticket counter or a police booth. as for me, i reached for a ticket counter and ask the lady in-charge about tickets to Bangi. it's cheap: RM 3.70 for 8 stops..8!!!

then, try looking for a map. in KL Central, you will immediately recognize it is a map when you are around the ticket counter and you see that there are a crowd of people looking at the same way, while thinking. you see, there are lots of maps around the counter but people basically love to look down than look up when they want to think. and people love newer things than the older things. that's normal. that's why people will go for the standing map at the left of the counter and newer looking one. that way you will straightly know that they are having the same problem as you are and maybe you can start asking them ways to get to Bangi, for example.  

if you are still unsure about the route, ask around. however, limit yourself only to the old lady, the woman with shopping bags or the people with travelling bags. since, for me, that kind of people, basically have a reasonable reason to be at the place. however, i have no intention of saying that free-hand people or younger people have no reasonable reason to be there, but we have to take precaution right.

and a reminder to the man or non-old-folks people, please....! if you are in a public transport, and there is a middle-aged woman, old folks, kids around you, give them seats. if you don't want to leave your comfortable zone, share them.... it make no harm by sharing... instead, it livens up your soul by sharing. sharing is caring. caring is loving. i really hate and 'menyampah' when a man, doesn't give the seat to the lady with 6-8 years old kid, which is standing right in front of him! hm... even though you are with your sweetheart, why don't you show a little social caring skills towards  the society. it give no harm to leave your sweetheart for awhile you know. even more, it will show your sweetheart that you care about your surrounding and you are a good man.your sweetheart will love you even more, then.

hm...

hence, for a conclusion, public transport is a safe transport for me and KTM Comuter will travel you safely and soundly if you know HOW to tackle it. the most important is buy the right ticket, memorize your stop's name and carefully look after your stuff. choose people when you want to ask Qs.



P/S: i still don't know how to tackle small kids, helpless and clueless...
