i HAVE to document my second traumatic bus ride of the week. it is so horrendous, you will not believe it.
okay firstly i got on the bus at esplanade after my outing with cheryl (YAYY! cheryl!!)and i sat on the outside seat, like the one next to the aisle. there was no one beside me. a few stops later, i spotted a COCKROACH crawling along the wall of the bus next to me!!! so i was like EEW luckily i am sitting on the outer seat if not i will PENGSAN already. but NOOOOOO it was not to be! soon after thinking that, this old smelly bloke plonked his bag -get this- on the INSIDE seat next to me!! and he was like leaning over me to hold on to it! then i gave him this what on EARTH are you doing look, so he took away his bag, then he FLICKED HIS HAND AT ME to motion me to move in! i mean seriously, why cant he just move in himself right? but NOOOOOO he HAD to sit on the seat i was in! so i grudgingly moved in and i lived in fear that the cockroach would emerge from its crevice again and attack me.
the worst is yet to come: the smelly old man started incessantly scratching his head and making WEIRD motions with his fingers, and SHOUTING AT THE TOP OF HIS VOICE INTO MIDAIR. and trying to jam his bus ticket into the bell. zomg, i have never seen such a thing in my life. i think he was trying to jinx somebody lah, with all the shouting and pointing. what a weirdo. so anyway, i was totally stuck between the cockroach and this senile old fellow, AND IT WAS SUCH AN UNPLEASANT RIDE, i have never encountered such a terrifying one before. shudders. i am SO glad i emerged alive.
anyway i have a billion things to do and i had better get down to doing them. off to camp on sunday!(x i have yet to pack and meet zai and settle grp identity and go for worship prac. WHERE IS AARON WHEN YOU NEED HIM?! hmph!
