  Hmmm anyone interested in how I felt yesterday? Actually I dont think so, in the case you are very sensitive...... dont read indeed!!!!! ok, so I warned you! My day started rather well, though I didnt had breakfast and couldnt take a lunch with me..... I had been moving stuff of my grandmother the whole saturday and shops in this incredible stupid country are closed on sundays! Lemme make a sidetrack here: the Netherlands is discussing the concept of an 24/7 economy for the last decade! Like all stupidities here, it remains with talking!!!! So no breakfast, no lunch, but an apparently indestructable mood! I went to the office, which is located in a small village. After few hours working I remembered the only shop in the village closes early so around 11am I ran to it only to discover they were on holiday! Then I wanted to go to the only snackbar in the village: closed on mondays!!! Ok, so no breakfast, no lunch.... that would become a rather hard day!
you have to know: I have serious underweight, not eating is like living on reserves I aint got.... wearing me out very much! Willpower drags me through Ramadan and/or occasional days I dont eat! The day went by, with huge lose of concentration.... well what do you want? And I closed quickly to catch the bus, I once missed it coz I was too late, so at 5.30pm I stept out the office, turned to the corner of the street and saw my bus passing....... the bus wich should arrive at 5.37pm!!! 7 minutes too early.... I dont like those drivers who cant use their watch! I mean especially in this village, there is 1 bus, once an hour! I quickly regained my good mood and started for a walk, how far could it be? the bus takes me in 30 minutes to the trainstation! So I started walking, must be said, I didnt wear shoes but slippers.... It was an incredible bright day and I was well on schedule to beat the second bus as well!
Until my old sports injury came up.... my knees, dropping my speed drastically the last miles were not so much aching, but they were slow! My own misstake, I didnt mind! Thus I crossed the most beautifull undutch brigde: The Rhine Bridge at Rhenen (a big village, but still very small, though it has a trainstation).... you walk from the Betuwe lowlands into the Utrecht-hills where these hills touch the Rhine.... BEAUTIFULL... The trainstation is just after the bridge and I was there at 7.11pm, so 1,5hours walking, and pitty I just missed the train (7.03pm) but the next one should arrive soon (7.33pm). I sat down, took a rest, listened to some music and waited.... 7.35pm I waited, 7.45pm a message: Due to a traincrash there was NO traffic towards or from Rhenen.....
WTF?, how do you get out of such a small town I wondered! There our railroad company is fully owned by the government, dont expect any service! There is a pole on small stations like Rhenen, you can press a button and inshallah get some assistance! So I did and I asked the sweet student at the otherside........ Is there any chance that I will make it home and get my dinner!!!!!!! Well, there was a chance that I would be home before midnight....... well so far, thanks to this incredible sad government who cant get their acts together! Thanks to the Stupid Railroads who dont know how to drive a train! I mean, how difficult can it be to keep a train on the track? There is no where to go???? I called my closest friend to calm down, he was laughing at my tirade.....
I asked him, why dont they call the unemployed airforce and blow the train of the track! that will clean up....... then you only have to remove the last pieces! Yes sorry, when I get annoyed.... and the Dutch society has this incredible ability of annoying me lately! I have never met or read about any group of people who behaves so sad.... they accept everything! No-one at the station was angry? they just walked back home..... well easy for them, my home is at the other end of the line.....
I was hungry and tired! After my friend and I disconnected (did calm me down a bit), I went back to the station and listened if they called new information! And surprise, surprise, the train of 8.03 pm should arrive! Which would be a masterpiece...... it was 8.02pm there was no train in sight ( Rhenen station gives an incredible good sight, you can see the train coming from miles away! ), and if it arrives the driver should walk to the other side (Rhenen is final-destination)... which takes him minutes, so no matter what, they were much tooo late.... 8.20pm still no train a new message, the train of 8.34pm should not go........
I was like, if I ever meet the lady who calls these messages I will ask here were the train of 8.03pm has left to???? My God....... and the worst thing is, that stupid railroad company doesnt made any delay on the track Utrecht-Rhenen v.v. and having delays is a hot topic, coz they got permission for a drastic raise in their ticket price, because of good service and no delays ! This they only make because of a flawn in their service contract: a cancelled train does not count as a delay!
Think about it....no where in that contract is named that the cancelation should take place a certain time before departure! So now the cancel ON departure time..... I call that fraud! This is the state of the Netherlands, the way we deal with eachother, the way we are governt, or beter said: NOT GOVERNT, COZ!!!! I have a really low esteem of our politicians yes! I really dont like them all, each and single one of them. I can know, I met them closely when I was involved in politics: best decicion I made ever: get the out of Dutch politics! So I needed a break, I called my mom.... in many cases a source of calmness to me. So I started my whole tirade again. I asked her, why we ever let the Germans go ( ehh for the ones not familair with European history: Second World War, German occupation. Trains did leave on time!)??? Can we call for a second occupation by the Germans??? I mean, I know they did many thigs wrong, but at least things worked ! ) After I calmed down.... nice mom: saying I should get something to eat.............. aaaaaaarrrrgggghhhh.....I asked her, why her generation (now in control) has ruined up this nation so much?
I mean, we're supposed to be a developed country! In India the trains depart on time for god's sake! We are the 7th richest nation in the world, the 3d investor in the USA (after Japan and the UK), but we cant get trains leave on time????? How's that? And by the way, they cant give me a good and stable broadband connection either!!!! Well yeah, when I get started I pick everything at one time, but my internet is surely bad! I went away from that place of doom and went looking for some information about an alternative.
Finaly I found this bus, going to Utrecht! But I just promised myself never ever to set foot in such a thing...... they are driven by drivers who depart too early! My mom told me to get in and shut up, hehehehe I told her that I would threaten the driver that, if he made one misstake, one flat tire, accident or anything I would beat him!... So I get on board, was a bit unfriendly to the driver, went all the way back not to get irritated and did the best thing to calm down: FELL ASLEEP!!!
Jazak'Allah, I'm gifted with the abilty to sleep everywhere, anytime! At 9.30pm I was in my own city (hmmm to international standard: town)... I went straight to the supermarket, bought loads of food and drinks and got home at 10pm..... 4 and a half hours, which should take 1 and a half!!!! I was soo hungry but wanted to refresh and do my namaz first, I almost fainted while performing! After namaz I sat in my chair sended my mom and friend a thank you txt message and started a DVD to watch..... it was 10.30pm when I was finished namaz, dinner and all....My knees hurted very badly, while doing namaz, getting up was near impossible.
Hmmm writing this all down is like almost reliving the memory! Today the train did leave on time and I've brought me skates, no dependency on the bus! it took me only 30 minutes to skate to my office! Inshallah the train will be on time tonight. I still seriously reconsider my stay in this stupid country... I wanna leave! Anyplace is better than this junkyard here..... the crap the people create here is so bugging me.... I spit on them! Only advantage of today was: during skating I didnt felt my knees, so that's an improvement, a good nights rest has done them good.... inshallah they'll keep this way! My sincere appologies for the language at some points.... I didnt want to correctt it though! this post is re-edited due to some messages received in another scrap..... I dont want people to get offended. I removed all bad words!
