on public rail

This is really sneaky. i was at orchard mrt trying to get home at peak hour, and judging that i do not have the mettle to fight the friday crowd i thought i'll take a nice slow ride back on bus 174. So i went to the same bus stop behind the mrt station, but shit, the bus that arrived wasn't my usual 174.

There was that insidious "e" behind the numerals.

(that means gotta pay more)

OKie!!!At first i was stupid enough to believe (one time too many) that the express service would be somehow faster than the normal 174 right. I mean you don't call something "express" for nothing. Either i'm dellusional or i'm just dumb. The damn bus took almost the exact same route as the normal service! I turned into Holland rd instead of the normal bukit timah stretch but trust me, the time both routes took were the SAME. And plus the traffic, i could swear that i got home even later than if i would have taken the normal service. damn, somemore gotta pay more. It's like SBS came up with this i-think-we-are-so-smart-to-hoodwink-the-stooopid-public-into-pay-more plan by changing normal service buses into express ones without actually reducing the physical amount of travelling time. totally sucks man.

you know next time don't trust express to mean express man. It takes like 1+ hours to get from suntec city to boon lay on bus 502 and it only takes 1/2 hr on the train fr city hall. Singapore can be really small but getting around is a real bitch on the buses that are forever taking extra turns. that's wat you get for cheap transport man.

and digress a little. the other day a guy sitting opposite me on the train, which was real packed, suddenly fished out a thermometer and proceeded to take his own temperature!!!!! argh the world is full of wierd people. He must have had that thing sticking out of his mouth for a full 10 minutes (or wat seems like to me cos it was to obtuse i can't stop looking) and there were so many people around. Hey brother cannot wait till you get to the hospital issit. faint!

the train is a pretty good place to observe socially retarded behavior if you realised, next time don't sleep, wear a pair of sunglasses and start spying, real entertaining stuff man.

tata.

PRIVATE-cy

I figure most people like to hear about bitchy and bad stuff. Tthat previous post was all that, written when i was real angry and vengeful. I kinda cooled down now. but i can't reallie decide if i should snap back in her face on wednesday or just keep quiet about it and let her go on pissing off more people until the whole world hates her. You know if i tell her that's she's got issues i'm like helping her man. the latter seems like a more evil plan. well i gotta gif it more thought. Vanessa. why must she be called venessa, the venessas i know are all cool, until this one. Ergh, spoil the name.

I've got more complains, recently i'm getting cynical. This one has to do with the violation of my most precious baby - my laptop. and my privacy. Gee it's my all time greatest pet peeve : someone opens and used your stuff WITHOUT your permission, or any intention of seeking that permission at all. Can you believe it. that's a real gasp. my cousin's girlfriend, whom i've NEVER met until the next day, came visiting when i was out. And she was using MY laptop, how dare she lay her hands on the princess's royal belongings man. it's like totaly invasion of privacy, there are my pictures, homework, and very personal stuff in there. IT"S MINE!!! and she asked no one, not even my mom. reallie if my mom said yes i wouldn't mind her using but the only reason i leave MY stuff on MY desk in MY room is because i honestly think no one will go around hanky panky-ing with them. Everything in my laptop is personal ok, i didn't even password lock it cos it's only me using.

my friend had the same experience and from then up her's is password locked.

haiz some people have no brains man.

the menace

I'm dying of fatigue now and the only thing that is keeping me going at this IMPORTANT post is my very own vicious vindictive- ness inspired by and of cos directed at a skin head fucker who had the bad luck of crossing me and whom i hope at this moment walks right into a manhole and gets transported through the sewage chutes at 60 miles an hour. Argh! i'm so appalled at her fuckin behavior that whenever i get angry today i feel like fainting. Okay don't start thinking I'm being brutish here, because once you hear the story you WILL know what i mean by rude-ness and brutish-ness, TO THE HILT!

yes, at close to 2 am in the morning of a day that started at 6am, i am spending precious sleeping time here telling you that i had the most obtrusive encounter with a fat, rude, disgusting brute of a girl. Because i think you ought to know what terrible stuff i went through. I'm not talkin social suicide ok, i'm talking about a true-blue asshole that you wouldn't mind paying 10 bucks to slap at a carnival.

Ok like i was saying i was PA-ing at my friend's internship company, this "girl" is a teenage looking, i dunno how old, but a full timer at the office apparently. BUT definately not some dua tao person (dua tao= big shot). She was obviouly doing production assisting work like us,

and you know what, she has the cheek to "order" me to go clean up the rubbish, do this do that, in that sick derogatoray tone. The producer, GM, crew pple, director, or even the rather fierce 1st AD had never talked to me like that B4. They the decency to ask. Basically everytime she opened her mouth she either shouted at me, talked down to me, or sounded like thunder.

Here the difference:

Tis is askin:
Pei Yu, can you get lunch. Pei Yu we need some unbrellas can you find some.

Tis is "bossying"
Pei Yu, i wan you to clear the area of alllll the rubbish (am i like the cleaner, u don't have responsibility ar)
Pei Yu, go get these drinks now ( why? people dying of thrist in Singapore ar)

It's so trivia for god's sake. Why threat people like dirt.

oei, Pei Yu not your dog hor, idiot. And that sick tone of hers is like which she would use to order her maid to fetch her i-zap, u-zap or her corset or something.

And she is FAT and UGLY.....argh save me!!!

I mean like where is your basic courtersy man, i barely know you for an hour.

And you calling my name is givin me a ear tumour.

And you know what, while i was taking the trash out to dump she came running towards me from behind and ask me to stop for her trash, and the most unberlievable thing is she just threw the trash back unto the floor in front of me while i was trying to untie the trashbags for her to dump them in. Then she just walk away.

What!!! Fucker u better come back now and eat up the rubbish i tell you, sicko.

All the while me and that intern fren of mine where running aroung like mad working our butts off she and that producer just stood around. WTF, just stood around machiam they are like some devine creatures liddat. So you zhai lar, tell people to do things machiam like very capable liddat all you now how to do is open that big mouth of yours.

Well i gathered that she doesn't really care about people in general cos she's like super nice to the important people on set, like crew and the talents but totally flips the hells out when she's talking to people she "thinks" are "lower" that her. of course i did a small "market survey" to gather "opinions and feedback from my peers" and victims of her brutility and i must say boy, she reallie made some enemies man, and my advice is that she better watch her back.

For example something as basic as courtesy when dealing with strangers. She stepped right up to the coffee stall at the coffee shop and grabbed a bunch of plastic bags that the hawker uses to contain packet drinks, from the container right in front of them ( which obviosly mean it's for them to pack the drink for you), and a whole bunch of straws to go with it. I think she probably cleaned out half the pack of palstic bags from that little container man. I could only stare. that's stealing, but the hawker was much too busy at that time to notice. I mean you could ask and if they are nice they might giv it to you. If you just take liddat how the do business man no bags to pack the drinks!

righ i'll be back with more stuff for this bitching post man. Gosh you angered the wrong woman sucker and she will fight back. Just you wait till wednesday.

Now i must reallie go sleep if not no strength to take revenge

discrimination is everywhere

right, today i was PA on my fren's PI company's shoot. Letmme tell you, it's not a fun yob, ya yobs! you have a problem with ma spelin. Well other than buy food and run a thousand other errands for god noes what they forgot to bring to the shoot, i couldn't think of anything else i did.

It's fuckin irritating cos, as much as i noe PAs do all these sai gang stuff, i'm pissed that i learned nuttin todya. I couldn't even stand around and see how the peeps work the equip and stuff without being sent off on another stupidly trivia errand the very next minute, like finding sparkling ribeana cos the director wanna drink. Do you even realize how far i walked. wha lao.

and well people automatically assume that guys should do all the technical stuff and carry all the equipment while i should just stand aside and clear the dumpster of someting. cos why, cos the stronger mah. shit! Do u realize i just walked like a total of 50 over miles buying all the stuf u wan me to buy and carried all of they by (largely) ma-weakling-old-self back. Wanna talk about fitness issit. I'm sick today somemore okie.

i tryda give 100% each time (I REALLIE am sick) and each time stupid guys just don't take me seriously. WHY.... *cringe*

Cos i'm a girl issit, or cos i look like a frekin 15 year old. Xiao mei! Get alive. Well your loss. y shld i be angry.
