please stop the squeeze...and i don't even know why i'm saying please
I really hate taking the MRT during peak hours. Seriously hate it.
Does everyone has to block the entire carriage door and squeeze with one another to see who can board the train first?? Is there a prize for this stupid competition that i do not know about??
Why cannot we let people alight first so that it is easier to board?? Is trying to squeeze past the people alighting as you are boarding really that fun?? Why is it that i find myself overwhelmed when i'm just trying to alight fast so you can board?? Can't we even leave a gap for at least one person to alight??
And why give me "that face" when i bump into you when it's you who initiated this stupid squeezing?? Especially when your hands are filled with stuff. I seriously don't think it's my fault. Really. So i'm not sorry.
Don't you find it funny that people run when changing trains (yes... at JE station)?? You can walk briskly and i can assure you the train will not depart without you. And why run when there's obviously no seats on the other train whereas standing space is abundant?? What's the point?? You run so you can stand at a spot that you most probably will still be if you walk??
No don't get me wrong. I can understand why people run sometimes. But everytime?? Hmmmm.....
And you know there are those people that like to board and immediately position themselves at the entrance when they aren't even alighting at the next stop. So if you are boarding the train after them you'll have to get past another obstacle.
And there are those who like to "expand their territory". Know what i mean?? They are the ones who will squeeze with you when they actually have ample space around them. So sometimes the charitable me will move a bit more to give these people a bit more space but the next thing you know they are at it squeezing with you again. And the weird thing is i'm not even a female and even if i am not a pretty one also.
What i would like to say is that i can understand the need for the squeezing in the train carriages themselves as a lot of people are rushing for time. But what i cannot stand is that we cannot even be courteous and patient enough to let people alight first before we squeeze on board. While trying to rush and make up for time we are actually delaying it instead.
Sigh....
Just some useless rambling. Not that this will cause much of a difference. And i'll most probably be back on the dreaded train again tomorrow. So i have actually wasted precious minutes here when i should be studying for my exams.
But since i've lowered whatever expectations i have of myself i'm actually feeling a lot less stressful during this period. I actually only want to get past the next two years trying to maintain my lowly standard. I know i will most probably be laughed at by people who even when closing one eye can make it into the Dean's list. And yes it's true that i'm not as clever as you are when it comes to studies. In fact i dare say i'm not even clever when it comes to studies in the first place. But i'm not ashamed. And i never will be.
Every day is so wonderful
And suddenly, it's hard to breathe
Now and then, I get insecure
From all the fame, I'm so ashamed
I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down
So don't you bring me down today
Ok so that doesn't make that much sense. But you know what i'm driving at right. Ok... thanks.
Hopefully i can actually get my 3.6 this semester. The talk of a loser.
And thanks for "California". Really nice song.
I don't know
Well I don't know
Why you still feel alone
Tell me because I want to find out
Do you still feel alone?
Happy Birthday Yuxing!!
Happy Birthday Jethro!!
Happy Birthday Kenneth!!
One after another. And to you if it's yours as well.
