[A heartbeat]

15/02/07 - :

Have you ever bothered asking me how I feel? Have you ever cared if it would hurt me? Sometimes I think this is just so unfair. People just get so used to showing me their moods, they don't care how I might take it anymore...

Oh just the other day, when all things bad seemed to happen all at the same time, I got chided by this irritating bus inspector. Took 198 (or was it 196) back home when I noticed the clouds were so grey, as if reflecting my mood and that wretched headache of mine, and wells, nobody did anything to make my day better. But nevermind, it couldn't get worse when this middle-age bus inspector boarded the bus and wells, obviously when you see him, you would automatically take out your ez-link card and let him do his job right? Fine, so I did. But you see, I thought he was still checking another person's card first, so I conveniently placed mine on my file (which was lying on my lap) so that he could just take it anytime he wanna when he's done with that person's. And in case you were wondering, the position I was sitting in was like facing him, yo u know the kind of seats that have 2 rows facing each other with a small passage way for commuters to walk? Yea.. As you can see, I was super alarmed when he turned around and just stared at me. Like hello? He saw my card there and he just stared with that pair of accusing eyes like I didn't pay my bus fare and I did something so grave it would be the end of the world. Asked him if anything was the matter and he went like: "People check card for you you don't expect them to take card from you right? Hand it over to me mah.." Alright~ Best man. Like hello? Will it kill you if you just took it by yourself? Must hand it to you properly, best with both hands and head bowed or knees kneeled to the ground then you would be satisfied right?!! I bet they will say, as they always do anyway, nowadays the youngsters ah, no respect for my job ah. Fine fine. My fault my fault, it always is anyway...

Whew. Fortunately thou, these grey clouds cleared when I got the long-awaited call...yayness! Met up with you and talked for hours. And those clouds literally cleared. As in in the sky and in my head! Really cheered up a lot after talking to you.. Haha... actually, simple things can make me happy. And I really thank God for that...

Anyways, you know, if you read the daily bread, you would have came across this. Found it useful and decided to share it. In case you've been feeling melancholy like I have the past few days... cheer up and smile =)
