Saw Steph²'s post on public transport. Well. Here's my say as well.
[1] I’m annoyed with people who try to squeeze into the train before you alight. What I do is to tap that annoying commuter very gently, look straight at her and say, Please let me alight first. Not in the most polite of tones but, well, I tried. To avoid molesting guys, I'll just tell them. But because they don't get my tap and because I expect them to be a lil more composed and civilized, they may receive an 'I Need to alight' line. Not too bad still. It is deemed to be most-unfortunate when i) I am dead beat from school and all, not exactly in the best of moods ii) I have a big sch bag or I happen to be hugging files/books. I apologize when I roughly squeeze/ 'nudge' through the crowd of SMRT's valued commuters, perhaps scratching or knocking into them. My, they must have looked back with that self-righteous/ victimized look, look at that RGS girl! So boisterous..er..so…[well, at least I did not growl in a low 'excuse me']

[2] I'm annoyed with men who cannot close their legs when they sit. I don't expect that they self-discount whatever amount of masculinity they ooze-out by crossing their legs and sitting like a lady, But! I do not see their need to sit that way. I mean, since under RP, we take life science/ molecular biology/genomics instead of 'Organs and Body Parts' for biology, there might have been some biological conditions I have overlooked on my part, but, I think it is within my rights to just let you know, sir, that your sitting posture oozes out that sick air of chauvinism that is not exactly 'trendy' in this time and age. Be more considerate.

[3] I'm also annoyed with boys, [I apologize to the remaining percentage of innocent male species] who look around to catch the eye of girls, and then look as if it was the girl’s fault for looking at them, because they are simply too 'cool' to miss, too attractive?!? How do I catch back your attention, look at you in the eye and tell you I was not planning to look at you, and it was not that I could not resist a glance at you! I am free to survey my environment by sight. They leave me feeling so annoyed, while they must be feeling justified, sighing contentedly that they know they look amazing, and that the mirror 'tells no lies'. Such Hideous non-truths!

[4] Lastly, people who have no sense of their surroundings. [I regret to say this sentiment was dug up again, from the observation of a secondary sch boy.] Personally, I feel that 'alertness' or 'sharpness' is very important. Perhaps those are milder terms of 'vigilance'. Well. This boy was head-phoned, and was apparently oblivious to the excessive space to his right, and he just refused to move in! Perhaps, you're drowning in your own world of cultured music or whatever. But surely! If you are deaf, are you blind too? Yes, it's early in the morning, but, please, you don't have to lower yourself to 'that' level, where you look as if you still have half a leg in the doorway of lala-land, still drooling, while nodding off to your lullaby! In a society, having a 'life' is really, to bear the needs of others by 'doing the right thing'. Im quoting Aung San Suu Kyi; not Russell Peters. – what ss literature review has done to me.

Ahh…im done =] I feel quite entertained. Comments? kunman.89@gmail.com somehow, I feel that a tag board would provide only room for short 'tags', which I believe, is quite a waste of time. So, to avoid cultivating ill-feelings through my cold ‘in-attention’ to them, let’s leave that space blank, just as it is.

[btw, steph, I'll never forget how the library metal pole thing was knocked over, and how the students were directing the 'screwin-back' of the thing! Managed to rescue it with physics principles?]
