had road run today. 5km of torture. god it was horrible. ran with jeremy all the way. i was fine for about 3km. the remaning 2 was excruciating, especially the last 1/2km. thought i was gonna die or something. came in at 249th position. though it may sound bad it's actually not bad considering that there are more than 500 guys present. so i'm happy. (and i didnt stop at all okay! continuous jogging for 5km!).
after the run, darren kit and i met daph and we went to the acjc fun-fair. got it was absolutely bad. so crowded, so hot, so expensive. we lingered for about an hour and a half and got outta there. never again.
we went to town then and bought mel's present; a bag and a water bottle. the bag was nice and the bottle was nicer, blue and all. bought for myself an earing to. lackin in those.
also, a new sex shop in far east. must go there in july!noticed something today; singaporeans are extremely rude, especially in the town area where everyone seems perpetually late for something or another. they just rush str8 into your face, not caring if they bumped into you or brushed your bag of your shoulders onto the floor. they just continue walking and not even a whimper of an apology escape their lips.
makes me wonder why i'm so nice to people sometimes, since its obvious that some singaporeans just dont care. feel so used. (like a slut. lol). i just think that it's unfair that some can be so nice and polite while others are so extremely blatantly rude! its annoying.
i've noticed that people tend to be nicer as i move out of the city. must be the hustle and bustle of city life that causes them to be so rude. but still its so not a good excuse. i mean if i can be polite in and out of the city, why cant they. maybe its because i'm still a teenager, without the worries and the deadlines of an adult. maybe its because they just dont care. maybe its because in the city people are more stressed out than at other places, so stressed that they slip in the manners factor. there are many reasons, but still, none of them are good enough. i just think that manners should be something that is found inside and displayed subconsciously, meaning that you will react appropriately in a given situation without thinking, thus making the action subconscious (though you may notice that i am using the word subconsciously loosely). it should be done no matter what. but sure, we're human and we do deviate for this ideality so hey, we can falter once in a while. i understand that.
since i'm in the mood for criticising my fellow singaporeans, i might as well state another example which gives reason as to why singaporeans are a rude bunch. in the mrt (i'm sure many will agree with me), singaporeans display, what i feel to be the most selfish and inconsiderate act i have ever witnessed. people always crowd around the door of the trains when they ahve no where to sit. this disrupts the flow of other passengers and because of that, it is so incomfortable to be in a train for long journeys under such conditions. you get so pissed that passengers refuse to move into the centre of the carriage even after repeated announcements by the computerised lady voice on the train. it absolutely irritating. sometimes, you just wanna shout. singaporeans should learn some basic manners especially in the bus and on the train. at least then maybe that statistic on singaporeans being the no. 3rd ruddest country (so damn shameful right?) will be eradicated.
