When the sun comes down
When the rain wash away
All the hopes I can bring
To another day, another day

When your trees start to sway
And the wind makes them move

I can tell that
You don't know

and i mean, PURE Singaporeans.

you people may have guessed what i am going talk about, or maybe not. but anyway, i had just been noticing this country's citizens recently due to my increased amount of time travelling back and forth from town to home for my appointments (garrh).


let's start from the MRT.

"Please stand behind the yellow line." and dont tell me that those people are what, cock-eyed? during the recent years, the yellow lines of the arrows were pathetically drawn for stubborn people who just won't give way to alighting passengers. now, they still think it's not enough? it is always the usual places; Jurong East, Outram Park, Raffles Place, City Hall etc. i dont like to see the scene (at underground platforms) where people just stand right in front of the sliding door, some even with their palms pressing on it. what the hell, it's like they will die if they cannot get into the train first, or like as if they will win a grand prize if they do. i noticed it's the Uncles in their lates who perform this act.
everytime, i will be the good Singapore citizen who will stand behind the yellow lines allowing space for the alighting passengers. what do i get in the end? it's either i have to squeeze my way in, fighting with all the ah-mas and big-sized aunties, or i'll just take the next train (rather seldom).

i dont mind people sitting on the floor, chatting with each other, as long as they have the consideration to stand up to let the people alight and board when the train gets packed. however, there are just some stupid dumbasses who refuse to move their big arses. especially Malays, i've noticed. they will just treat that area like it's their territory; laugh their heads off, talking very loudly and all that bullshit. don't they just feel embarassed with the whole cabin literally staring at them? this is tolerable though.
what isn't tolerable (to me), are the people who blast music with either their cellphones or their portable music players or something. like "hello?" do you own this MRT cabin? they will always blast heavy-metal songs or those modern ones until it can echo within the cabin.

i know you just want to show off your new Sony Ericsson Walkman stereo phone,
but please, in another way.

and it's usually Malays as well! what's their effing problem. can't get enough of blasting music? i'll go to your house, install the uber powerful amplifiers, glue them to each of your ears, blast the music volume 100 and see if you will kneel before me for forgiveness. even if you do, i dont think you'll even hear me saying "oh it's alright." HAH.
*stick out tongue*

"Dear passengers, for the convenience of our own passengers, please move towards the center of the car." nobody in the cabin heeds to this request. NOBODY. i was pathetically squeezed, dying of suffocation at the packed area near the door, when i can see the center of the cabin being so obviously EMPTY. when i managed to squeeze through and stand in the center of the cabin, those people that i walked past literally glared at me.

What? Did i step on your big-ass foot?

no. they just find me irritating because i squeezed past them. Hey, i said EXCUSE ME okay. not like you people just gong-gong standing down there not allowing anymore passengers to board the train. i am the considerate one who is providing more space for you to squeeze, happy? still glare at me. at least i could get fresher air there, unlike you others just linger there to suffer the stench of different odours. sad case.
how thick can you people get?

do you give up seats for ones who need it more than you? i do, whenever im awake, that is. haha. but anyway, just came across a few inconsiderate acts on this part. i won't want to elaborate on this part, because it's so common. alrighty, let's take one scene that i talked about in one of my blog posts last year. i was on the train, and this pregnant lady boarded the train at Commonwealth if im not wrong. it was just that moment that i woke up from my short slumber *yawn* then i looked up and saw the lady. her face was damn pale, and from her sniffing and all, you will surely have known that she's caught a bad flu. to prevent myself from getting back to sleep again, i offered her the seat. the lady kindly refused with a thanks and offered it back to me. since we were already at Bouna Vista (with a packed cabin), i insisted her to take a seat giving the excuse that i would be alighting soon. she still kindly refused, so i just smiled and continue standing. oh, then what happened? an auntie squeezed through the crowd and landed her butt on my ex-seat. then she looked up at and and, smiled.

i was like, "what the hell?! still dare to smile at me!"

her smile is those kind of silly smile that a little boy would give when you finally gave him an ice-cream after he threw a big tantrum.

at that moment of time i almost blurted out "eh auntie, the seat was meant
for her, not YOU. get lost!" in Chinese.

im glad i didnt. hahaha.

i just dont know what's up with those aunties and uncles. they look healthy enough to stand properly, unlike the sick and pregnant lady! what, they expect that they should get the seat just because they are older than the lady? nuh-uh.


let's touch upon BUSES now.

do you like people taking up two seats? no, i dont. especially those aunties that 'cannot put their groceries on the floor', then put on the seat beside them, making it wet and 'un-seatable' for the next passengers. there was once when i board the bus, which was already rather empty, i headed for my 'usual seat' until i was digusted by what laid on it. i had, and still have no idea what was it; it was bloody red, jelly-like, with a puddle of red liquid surrounding it. it may be some auntie who put her plastic bag of fishes there and it leaked, or.. i dont know! garrh, thinking of it makes me go "eeew". there was another time when i was already in the bus and this auntie came on board. she was holding only two plastic bags of groceries like dry vegetables and maybe some canned stuff and bottles of drinks. she happily sat beside me and also happily settled her groceries on the seat next to her. okay, that was one. after that, she moved her big fat arse towards me! i was really like "omg, what the hell is she doing?!" it's like she's sitting in a slanted manner, leaning towards her groceries. she's apparently occupying two-and-a-half seats LAH! what the hell. luckily the bus was rather empty as well, then i switched to the seat next to me.
RARRH, i can't stand these people.

i dont mind fat people occupying two seats but people, next time if you carry groceries and you want a seat, put them on your lap or on the floor. thank you.

im not saying im a totally good Singapore citizen or what. im emphasizing on how considerate and thoughtful most Singaporeans can get. i should be general or else later some auntie may happen to somehow blog-hop to this blog and flame me, i dont know. it may happen! anyway, i specified them up there already.


and one word to describe whatever i had touched upon.
inconsiderate.


so, be considerate! :)
