BUS RIDES,
Wednesday, May 20, 2009.
I really feel like complaining tonight because I am very angry with people I've met in the bus lately.
Okay.. I take 159 to and fro sch every single day and it's been two consecutive day that I have been met with such inconsiderate people.. Usually, the bus is often crowded with passengers and my morning rides are pleasant, maybe because I board the bus from the interchange and so often, I get to sit inside but the journey back home are damn irritating. Well you know how tiring it can be after a day of school and you tend to get annoyed by people's actions who are often so full of themselves and think they own the bus.
Scenario 1
I was damn tired because I had only slept for 3 hours the day before and I was practically dragging myself home. I boarded the bus and searched for a seat but there was only two empty seats left - one with an aunty and the other with an uncle. And as always, I headed to sit with a female if given a choice but this aunty literally told me off and demanded that I sat with the uncle instead and I don't know for what reason. I could hear her voice even with music in my ears! I didn't catch what she said though, just her jestures and her annoyed face. I was so embaressed because you know how old people tend to raise their voice and it embaressed me further because there was so many people on the bus. I looked back then and I saw the people around me staring at me, which made me feel WORSE! Well of course I didn't do anything because I didn't want to create a scene, so I really did head to sit with the uncle. I wanted to observe her but I was sitting in front listening to my MP3 after that. I wonder if there was anyone else in the bus who got scolded by her. She must have thought that she owned the bus or something like that. Tskk.
Scenario 2
Yes the bus was crowded again with only a few seats left but there was only one lady sitting with an empty seat beside her, the rest were guys. So I headed for her again and she gave me a WTF face. I thought it was the sun that made her wince her eyebrows but when she wanted to alight, she said excuse me in a very sarcastic way. Not only that, I stood up so that she had plenty of space to move out but she had to purposely/non-purposely stepped on my feet and DRAGGED HER FEET ON MINE! She did not even turn to look at what she had stepped on or even apologised for her actions! This time I wasn't lost in my world of music again and I heard her tone and words clearly. I felt like shouting but I held my breath. I spent the whole remaining time in the bus trying not to think of the pain she caused to my left foot or what I should have reacted. I was damn pissed I tell you. GRRR!!!
I wonder what is wrong with these people. They must have their own problems maybe but that's not an excuse to be inconsiderate or rude to others correct? I don't even do that to strangers when I'm feeling down. Are Singaporeans becoming more arrogant or crazier by the day? I seriously don't know. All I know is that if this happens again tomorrow, I'm really gonna scream in the bus! Okay maybe not. I wonder if I have one way or another offended them, but I didn't do anything wrong. I kept my space and didn't sit in the elderly(green) seats.
okay enuff about that! I got a small pressie from him! Hehe. I was so happy. :))
Dalah bye. I'm gonna complain to other ppl now. hehe. Night! :)
Muucch love.
