My Peeve with SBS Nite Owl

So, last Friday night (or Saturday morning, but either way it's the same) I went out to Mohamad Sultan Road at night. I decided to be frugal and take the SBS night service, called the "Nite Owl" home. I checked the website for details. Turns out that they revamped the service quite a bit, and the timings were different from last time, not that I had ever taken it before, but I just checked up on it in curiosity. So I checked, and it said that the bus (I was taking 2N) would arrive at my bus stop at around 12:50 am. It also advised me to be at the bus stop 5 minutes early (though that was clearly a mistake). Ok. So I said goodbye to everybody and made my way to the bus stop, arriving at approximately 12:45, as advised. I waited. I used AskIris to find out when the bus was coming, only to be told that it was not in operation. So I started panicking. Until I saw the 3N bus coming. Then the 5N and 1N. (CLearly it was not the night for even-numbered buses). I waited in vain, until I got fed up around 1:10 and hopped into a cab. Now that was a mistake. As the cab pulled out of Mohamad Sultan to River Valley Road, guess what was finally pulling up. The 2N. I could have screamed in exasperation. Evidently it must have been the service that, according to the website, was supposed to arrive at 1:30 am. I was fed up, as I really wanted to try the bus to see how long it would take to get home, as well as me wasting $17 on the cab when the bus would only cost $4. Oh well. At least I got home early, not that I was very sleepy at that point anyways.
