What to do without a Smart Phone?

I get a chance to take the bus and then the MRT home from the Science Park office today. No, this post isn't about how bad the ride was. But it was bad and I am even more sure now that I wouldn't be able to survive traveling to and from work via the public transport and during peak hour. You who do, are really great. I remind myself to be grateful for a workplace so near my home and a fantastic hubby who is willing to ferry me.

So, I boarded this bus that was really crowded. It was jerky and my bag weighs a ton with the gigantic work laptop. I had no extra hand to even hold my phone as it wouldn't look pretty falling in the bus or on somebody else. I wouldn't risk crushing somebody. So, I tried looking out of the window and at the scenery and at others on the bus to distract me. It wasn't long before I grew bored and was longing for my precious iPhone. I took out my iPhone to play my candy crush, check fb and blog the moment the bus was less crowded.

Then I changed to the train. I was so lucky that it wasn't too crowded. At least nobody's shoulder stuck to my back. The crowd got off at Jurong East MRT. And when I looked at the other passengers left on the train, everybody (or at least 95%) was on their smart phone, including me. Oh gosh, this technology is helping or harming us? What will happen in our children's time? Hmmm..
