surreal moment

the last surreal moment i remembered was when i a friend had gone into a fit.

i had a surreal moment tonight. tired after a day's work, i had gone to get dinner after guan's wedding. kai drove. it was at the junction of sims and geylang. a truck travelling on the opposite of the road had skidded and ran over the road divider and propelled towards us. moments before the hit, i remember looking back and was surprised when i saw a truck with no driver coming towards the back of our car.

there was a big impact.

we got out. kai was pissed, i was puzzled. we approached the truck. the driver was lying down, stretching across on the passenger seat. he was drunk. so drunk that it was obvious that the police did not have to use a alcohol detector on him. he did not make sense in his words, babbling on, saying everything is ok and all will be ok, in his let's-shake-hands-and-lets-all-go-home-to-sleep-mood.

999. our friendly police officers arrived moments later. they were really friendly, especially towards our new drunkard friend.

all was settled. we were tired and wanted to go home. we saw mr drunkard being taken away in the patrol car as we left.
dont drink and drive. this came as something so real and yet surreal.
