today started off horrible but thankfully it ended better. all i have to say is: OMG SINGAPORE YOU REALLY HAVE TO IMPROVE ON YOUR HORRENDOUS STANDARD OF CUSTOMER SERVICE. :(
mum went to the doctor's at mt elizabeth for her blood test whilst i went window shopping. when we finally met up again she told me that the nurses at the clinic were horrible. apparently there was this Caucasian woman before her who looked to be in pain. and when she approached them for some water, they said, "oh. our water is boiling hot you know?" but she still wanted it cos i suppose she really needed it, so when it was ready, instead of delivering it to the poor woman who is less than a metre away, she just left it on the counter for the woman to get it herself. not only is the customer service bad, but they obviously have no compassion. i mean, HELLO. THERE IS A FELLOW HUMAN BEING HERE WHO IS IN PAIN AND YOU DON'T CARE TO HELP HER BUT JUST CONTINUE WITH YOUR IDLE CHIT CHAT?! but what really got my blood boiling was that my mum had to wait like, half an hour for her blood test. i really don't understand how this whole thing works. whats the fucking point of making an appointment if we still have to wait half an hour?!?!?!?! it happened yesterday when i went with my mum with the clinic too. so apparently the blood test guy finally came, and when he was ready, those fucking brainless nurses said that the room wasn't ready. LIKE WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN IT WASN'T READY?! IF IT ISN'T READY U HAD THE PAST FREAKING HALF HOUR TO READY IT YOU BRAINLESS ASSHOLES!!! instead, no! u just choose to sit there and talk with one another instead of doing your job! so my mum wasn't going to wait anymore, so they wanted to do the test in the sitting room. but the nurse said they couldn't do it there, so they ended up behind the counter or something. so basically, these fools couldn't grasp these 2 concepts:
1) if the room isn't ready, don't schedule an appointment at that specific time that it's used! i mean, HELLO!! COMMON SENSE, ANYONE?!?!?!
2) time is precious.
i told my mum that i would go with her for her next visit, which should be about 2 weeks time. if those 2 clowns choose to be funny with me, i'll make sure to be 'funnier' than them. keep me waiting for more than 15, no, 10 minutes, and i'll make sure i'll raise hell and fire. i'm usually a very patient and understanding person. but push me too far and i'll show no mercy.
next, we went to the food court at ion orchard. my mum wanted to eat bak kut teh. so apparently this bak kut teh stall had an area reserved for their customers, so my mum wanted to sit outside this area so i could eat something else from another stall. since i was off buying my food, my mum took our bags and went off nearby to find another table. but before she could walk far, the woman from the bak kut teh stall shouted for her to say that she hadn't paid. and my mum was affronted cos she had her hands full with our 2 bags to carry and this crazy woman was demanding her to pay for her food immediately. like, wth man! at least have the courtesy to wait for my mum to put down her stuff first. it's not like we're gona run away. so my mum said that she might as well not eat, but the woman said the stuff was being cooked already. i tell you, if i were my mum, i'd say: "like i give a damn whether or not your food is cooked. i'm walking away. WATCH ME." but of cos my mum couldn't. -_-''' next time.....wait till the next time....
on my side, i ordered noodles from another stall, and i had to wait for 10-15 minutes for it. and the girl didn't even apologise or say anything about keeping me waiting so long. i was so tempted to ask her: "are you planning of serving me by the next century?" i SWEAR i could FEEL my hair turning white. i'm never going back there.
thankfully our bad experiences ended there for the day. can you imagine, 3 bad run-ins before noon! i was in a damn foul mood, and i really was looking for another chance for me to give someone a piece of my mind. but we ended up at liz claibourne and they treated us decently, and we also found a gem of a shoe shop where they sell really comfy, unique looking shoes made of natural materials like coconut husks and rubber and leather. i'm definitely going to become a regular customer. and of cos the salesgirls were really nice too. thank god.
i had tuition after our shopping trip, and i still couldn't get my mind off our unfortunate encounters. i was so distracted and angry. shit man. bloody bastards ruined my day. :(((((( even now, just recounting them makes me thirst for blood. if i were a vampire, they'd be the first people i'd kill.
wow. my first long post in a while. and it has to be so depressing. UGH.
I LOVE MILEY CYRUS!!!! :DDDDDD
i know what you all are thinking, but too bad. i like what i like ok?? deal with it. :)
i'm dying!! i can't wait for "The Last Song" to come out!! thank god there's the gorgeous Liam Hemsworth to distract me from Taylor Lautner. :P
I am absolutely terrified of going to university. the last thing i want is for uni to be like jc all over again.
JC= doing things i fucking hate but i have no choice or my future is screwed.
no way am i gona pay thousands of dollars and put myself through hell again.
i have discovered internet on my phone! N im typing this post on my phone! Yay omg im so happy! Nokia sent me an sms telling me how to connect, so i experimented n tapped onto my house wifi. Im a genius. :D this is also another source of distraction cos i can hop on to youtube anytime n watch the new new monn trailer over n over. I swear i have it memorised already. N im smack in the middle of prelims n like 50 days away from As. Great.
September 11.
today, it has been exactly 8 years since the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York City. it's not about 11+pm in Singapore, which is about 11am in the morning in new york. the first plane hit at about 8.45am in the morning, and this time 8 years ago, people were in a frenzy, rushing to evacuate to New Jersey, trying desperately to get through phone lines to contact their love ones........ yes. it is roughly about this time.
8 years ago, 2 planes crashed into the north and south towers, and killed thousands of people in the building, in the plane, and emotionally scarred millions more. 8 years ago, NYC was like a ghost town, with debris lining miles away from the site. 8 years ago, mankind witnessed one of the most barbaric and inhumane acts ever committed. 8 years ago, people screamed in fear as the second plane crashed into the second tower. 8 years ago, people watched as their fellow citizens were trapped in a burning building of over 1000 degrees celcius, and for those who couldn't take it, we watched as people hurled themselves out of the 78th floor to their deaths. on camera, they look no more than a small black mass. but that is a human being. 8 years ago, some were lucky they woke up late for work because they had watched a football game late into the night and thus survived to live another day. 8 years ago, people lost fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, cousins, friends...... 8 years ago the world watched shell-shocked as the twin towers came crashing down. 8 years ago, people gathered in Times Square in front of the big TV with hands covering their mouths and tears in their eyes, crying for those they knew and didn't know. 8 years ago, many lives were changed forever.
now, 8 years later, children have grown up without their parents. some girls will never have their father-daughter dance at their wedding. people will be holding pictures of their lost loved ones with tears in their eyes. people will be observing a few minutes of silence. i haven't lost anyone from this horrific incident, but it still makes me tear because so many innocent lives are lost and affected for nothing. it isn't fair for another human to go through that kind of pain.
today, i still wonder how people can be so cruel to commit such an act. my thoughts are with those who have lost people who are dear to them. because even after 8 years, i'm sure it's still hard.
i have come to the conclusion that i'm nothing like Isabella Swan.
ok i wouldn't say absolutely nothing, but we have a lot less in common than i expected. i used to think, "omg, stephanie meyer wrote a book about me." cos i expect myself to act the exact same way that bella would if faced with the same situation. but today, after reading new moon and twilight for the 951515165465213232644th time, i realise there are many areas in which we are different. for example:
1. i can tell that bella is a very smart, disciplined girl. i mean, she actually completes homework on time. i erm..... don't. ahahaha!! 60 over days to exams and i'm still reading twilight. tsk tsk......
2. bella's an excellent cook. i can't even boil water. (or at least i haven't tried......)
3. she watched horror and gore shows. i watched 15 minutes of house of wax and couldn't sleep well for 2 weeks.
4. bella dislikes music. i LIVE for music. it's a really big part of my life. oh yes, i play piano but she doesn't.
5. she has a really mellow sort of personality. likes to be alone, very level-headed, doesn't like to draw attention to herself. i am like that sometimes, but i do go crazy once in a while. :P i'd like to think i'm a little more cheerful than she is.
i'm sure there's still many more contrasting points i have yet to unearth, but these would do for now. but i do wish that i'll have a daughter like her when i grow up. she's like, the perfect child. for me at least. i really wish i was more like bella. i really do.
i'm gona shower for the 2nd time today. <----- random thought :P
blogging doesn't strike me as something very bella-ish. she's the last person to want to let people know what is going on in her life.
and bella wouldn't be here blogging if she has exams so close. she would be mugging her ass off. and of course she'd have the gorgeous genius edward cullen to help her.
i don't think anyone is gona read this anytime soon cos everyone has kinda given up on my blog after so long an absence. ahaahahah!!!! duno why i suddenly got into the mood tonight.
yingxy and nick just broke up. i was kinda hoping they would last till december when i go over so i can meet the guy who is so important to her. but all my fantasies and planning has gone to waste cos it's not happening now. im just so worried she'd go off with that kevin guy who smokes (or used to. who cares. it's all the same) and does drugs and treats him as a rebound guy. and the worst thing is she doesn't know it. and my ultimate fear is that she'll get drunk and get herself raped or something. yingx, if you read this, DON'T u dare say it won't happen to u. all those rape victims never expects it to happen to them anyway. as your older cousin, or big sis, i have the right to worry.
then i go on to see sam's facebook profile. he's dating some other girl who isn't half as pretty as lou is. and my first thought is "he leaves lou for her?" i shall not attempt to understand how a guy's mind works. but what i can say is that these 2 people i know have seriously put me off relationships for a while. that's why i stick to romance novels, chick flicks, and my own imagination. they never let you know, and u have a never ending flow of romance anyway. and i don't need a man to have kids. i'll just go visit some sperm bank or something. LOL.
i'm not going to be childish and say i'm not gona fall in love or get married. i know i'll find the right guy in time. but sometimes i wish i can just jump into those fairytales and ride off with my prince into the sunset. it really saves everyone a lot of time, money and heartbreak.
