today I went to take a train to a neighbouring town,.. but little did I know that it would be FORTY MINUTES LATE!!!
I nearly got fired from work because the stupid trains decided that they'd be late (yet again), if you ever travel over to australia for any reason, avoid the rail system at all costs

well I must warn you for the Netherlands as well then Refund...
this time of the year the railwaycompany claims that many trains can't drive because: there are leaves of trees on the rails.. this is no joke, they say it affects the wheels or something..
at other times of the year they're also late by the way..
i hate travelling by train

I think that the main thing making the trains late is that they're all being over cautious due to al the train acidents that have been around latley
they suck in the UK too.
But have you ever noticed that they're on time if you're late ?!

its better to die than be late for work you know
my theory is that J-POP is so insanely happy and bouncy to try counter the high depression/suicide rate in that country, download the pitaten theme song If you want a good example of J-POP
