Two Impossible Taxi Drivers

October 31 (Friday): From Centennial Tower to Lippo Center by taxi. For this short distance, the driver went on the expressway. Wondering where he would take me… Saw Lippo through the window. No way to stop until the next exit. He was taking me to “Vivo Center” at Harbor Front! “Vivo Center”? There is no such place.

November 3 (Monday): It was already past midnight, so November 4, actually.
“Tiong Bahru, Jalan Membina.”
“Geylang?”
“I said Jalan Membina!”
“I thought you said Geylang… From which way? Orchard and Tanglin?”
“River Valley (and fuck you)!”
