I have to admit that i regreted getting that big bulky bag. Ugh, it was more of a burden than it was of help. Imagine waking up extra early at 6am and say you leave house at 7am so that you get an hour to get to the school without having to fight for space in the bus with the majority of the students. phew.. today was a classic example.

I wanted to borad the first 154 which came along, but guess what it was already filled to the entrance. i pretty much guessed that some would alight and there would be enough space for me to borad. But NO the people around me struggled to get INFRONT of me. Darn, singaporens! so you know that basic rule of giving way? Does one have to get a driving licence just to know how to give way?! geez!! i was totally pissed.

Next, i had a hard time looking for a place to sit. In the end i decided that it would be best if i go to the back and stand. I had a late night and so much for wanting a place to sleep while i get to school. I just want to bring to you the attention of Singaporens being so impolite, and of someone without courtesy. The goverment should start the "Courtesy Campaign" again. Singaporeans are so "robotic" only when the goverment initiates a campaign than they begin to work towards that 'goal'. Once campiagn's over, they go back to their normal self. This illustrate the IMF event clearly. When it was the IMF period, the SMILE campaign initiated many to provide good services. Now when it is over, you see the sales person back to their "slacking" mode.

How can a country like Singapore lack something so important? Hopfully one day, this society will be a better place to live in. May god be the light that guides our way =)
