'why do i sit in front,'
asked the taxi driver when I was on my way to Nparks HQ for a meeting and mind you, this was not the first time I got asked that very same question.
'i dunno... habit i guess'
thats what i replied him
and then he went on to list the advantages of sitting at the front seat as compared to the back (i wonder why tho, as if he was trying to imply that i did the right thing??) :
1) i get a clear view of the road
2) i could have an interesting conversation with the taxi driver, which would definitely make his
drive more pleasurable
3) i would be more prepared if there's any possibilities of an accident (and then he said touch
wood)
4) i cant remember, i was busy reading text messages on my mobile
so on my way back, i decided to give it a try, to be like all the other girls... and sat at the back instead.
it felt weird. and i didn't like that feeling.
which made me wonder, this issue had never struck me before until cab drivers started asking me the same question. and i realised at home, my sister and i had this weird understanding that the 'more powerful' person in the family always get to sit at the front seat and i remember the countless times when we fought (despite the 9-year age gap) for it, reaching for the front door.
funny. are we the only siblings who think so?
