Sentosa trip. 17.06.09
Went to AMK library to do Pointless Work on Tuesday.
Needed a socket to charge the laptop, but there was(were or was?) none available. We sighted a handphone plugged in to charge though, and the 2 girls I was with just stood there and eyepower-ed the guy because they didn't (anatomically) have the balls to go up to him to prompt him to give up the socket
So being me, I worked my magic. And he was OK with it.
What can we conclude from this sexperience?
Guys who charge their phones in public areas =/= inconsiderate--they're just being streetwise. Why charge your phone at home, and pay more for your electricity bills, if you can charge in public and waste the library's resources instead?
If you're really in need of that socket, just ask and ye shall be given. Not that my 2 friends were cursing the guy or thinking of him in a bad light(not that I know of, at least), but we can always see people going home to bitch about how that 'inconsiderate bastard took up the socket and left me without anywhere for my laptop, which SHOULD BE PRIORITIZED!!!111!!! The library's resources shouldn't be wasted here!!!111!!!'
Really, just ask and you shall be given. If you aren't, just report to the librarians or something. Or threaten to report if he/she refuses to give up the socket.
You blogging about how much that shit sucks doesn't hurt the shit at all, maybe the shit doesn't even know its hated. I'd charge my phone in the library if I had the chance, but I'd give it up if requested.
Which is why I cannot stand those hypothetical bloggers/complaint queens.
If you don't ask, and if the charging person doesn't have a telekinetic link to your brain(which is most probable), how is he going to know that you want the socket?
Don't accuse others of being inconsiderate if they don't even know what are they supposed to do for you. It's not in Man to think for EVERYONE AROUND THEM. If you have views on someone's actions, talk to him about it. Doing stupid stuff like getting all angry doesn't help, he doesn't get the point, he's unaffected, and you're the only person with burst blood vessels. Not economically beneficial.
Which is why I always try to keep my cool. And more often than not I talk in a very calm way even when I'm agitated. Maybe you can hear the exasperation in my voice(like me about to climax when someone walks in and I have to cover up, and I have to convince the intruder that I'm going to sleep soon, thank you very much for your concern, now go away) at times, but even then I don't raise my voice. OK I still do at times, but I think I'm getting better at this. I am so zai.
Coz seriously, you angry also no one care. It's another form of self-mutilation. And I always try not to do stupid stuff like that.
I was on the MRT to Harbourfront earlier today(Wednesday) when I saw a man give up his seat for a lady with 2 kids.
So I was thinking about the many blog posts by others about how un-gracious Singapore society is. Sure, there are people who spit everywhere(I'm a mild case), but isn't it a bit stupid to judge an entire society by its minority so that the minority is seen as the majority?
I sometimes watch the Paris and Milan or something, the 2000hrs-2030hrs Thursday show on Channel8.
Sure, it's funny, but merely a show ridiculing the Singaporean 'culture' wouldn't change anything. It just makes Singapore seem like an uglier place to live in.
I blogged about the importance of being kiasu once, and I think I make perfect sense, as I always do.
Like in the case of, say, taking the bus, if you know that a lot of people would take the bus at a certain hour, you'd try to take it slightly before that time, right? And when others follow suit, you get up even earlier. And blah blah blah and you got the point.
So anyway, went to Sentosa. Um. Yea. End of story. It wasn't very exciting, and to be honest, I'd rather have went to study. That says quite a lot. It was quite pointless going all the way to Sentosa, paying 3bucks to enter the freaking place, only to laze around eating chips and playing the occasional Captain's Balls/random 'monkey' games and the Frisbee.
OK, so I went for a swim with Darren, and that's about it. The others didn't join in. I think it's more of a scam for them this time round. Watched bikini babes walking around, but the quality is so bad I'd rather go sggirls.com and wank to pictures. I don't wank to pictures by the way. I don't even watch porn(as in seriously =.=).
But oh well you can say that it's a novel experience.
Which reminds me of the number of kids walking around fleshing 4/5 of their thighs like as if they're on the beach. You see all those people wearing FBTs walking around the streets? No it's not that I'm against them I'm for them, because that means more flesh for me to feast my eyes on, but I just think that's unhealthy that other people, or rather everyone else, can feast their eyes on the person in question, who cannot be termed as a victim because she is asking for it.
OK, the weather is hot(must apologize here coz I contribute to global warming by being hot =\) but that doesn't mean they have to:
1) Walk around fleshing 4/5 of your thighs.
2) Walk around scantily-clad.
I wear my short pants everywhere.
I have leg hair covering my inner thighs. I have double their insulation.
So why are they fleshing when I haven't done so?
I am a leg-man and yea. So if them kids are trying to attract attention my attention, they're doing it fine.
But I know that it's a sight I'd have to get used to.
And I had a chance, but I blew it due to lack of information. But then again, so what even if it happened? Chances don't just appear because things happen.
