Driving nitemare

i have been driving in cairo since we got our korean bat mobile...but my area is very limited...maadi...carrefour and the office...i dont even drive downtown...its too stressful and scary! since ive started work...been driving more since im doing the graveyard shift..and so far ive even driven to nasr city and zamalek!! woohoo..10 points for yummymummy..kekeke....

when i drive..i try not to use the honk too much..1st its irritating...2nd...i hated them....3rd...i hate getting honked at sooo vise versa....but here in cairo...honking is fav pasttime..everyone honks at everyone so its not a crime to honk its justthat it drives me crazy!

On the way to work today...i almost lost it, there was huge lorry with huge load on it with no safety strap in front of me takin a turn..so i slowed down and waited til the lorry was done to make my turn...aand i have like maybe 5 cars behind me banging on the hons and flashing thier lights like a mad man to ask me to get a move on!!!! arghhhhhhhhh....i really just wanted to get out and scream to each on of the **** up driver to just shut it!!!!....these are just one of common senarios u will see driving here...and this is not even bad!

i find driving in cairo....very tiring coz u constantly have to watch out for you car...and the rest coz u never know what coming in front or behind u...and most of time driving accident here is almost always fatal ,its very scary. Like i was driving back this morning...i saw a big bus that was burn and almost in ashes...it wasnt then when i was driving to work the nite before...so it must be new and i dont even wanna know happen to the passengers...sigh...also there is not such things ure on the rite lane....the street is one big lane and u can go anywhere...and it ok..and im taking about the highways..yeah not some kampung street...so u can imagine jalan kampung macam maner....:&

so....why do i still choose to drive??? 1st...i dont have a driver...2nd...i have to be dependent on other 3rd...caveman is not around....and i like to drive..



everyday i get in my car...i say my prayer, hoping that i get to my destination in safely...amin ya rabbaalamin..
