hey ya'll
yup i just got back from shopping
with zac and sarah chan
also we headed to timbre to watch ryan play
pretty awesome hey.
neways on our way back home
this black guy (prolly a construction worker cause he was wearing his uniform) was asking this
old couple how to get to bishan (cause he lives there)
so the old couple told him to take 162.
when 162 arrived zac and i boarded first
and he boarded and asked the bus driver if this bus goes to bishan
zac and i was already standing behind and
the next thing i knew the black guy walked out the bus
i was like "omg zac! this bus goes to bishan! why is he going out"
"i think the bus driver told him that it doesn't go to bishan... omggg! how is he going home?!"
i think i was worried and i spoke too loudly that the people sitting in front of me
just kept staring.
chloe: "omg. so poorthing. how?"
zac:" oh no"
so throughout the whole bus ride back i just kept thinking about the man
I COULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING.
i could have stopped the bus driver and told the man that it goes to bishan.
i could have helped that man get to bishan.
i felt sooooo bad after. i told zac
"if i were that man and if i was in a foreign country i would have felt upset cause i'm stuck and i don't know how to get home ):"
zac:"well thats how the world is like"
i've decided that from today onwards i would never ever do such a thing. i don't want to be sooo engrossed in what the world takes part in, cause its not about me.
whahaha. so when it was nearing thomson.
zac was soooo random. i thought he wouldn't think about what i said
but he went like " actually this bus goes to bishan what! why did the bus driver tell him no?!"
chloe:"ya i know ): i still feel so bad"
lol. i know i'm weird. but yea. stuff like this affects me. i mean i want to be treated like how i treat other people. i mean don't you think it'll make life easier if you could help someone in one way or another?
i don't know man. but thats what i've always believed in.
if i could help anyone in anyway. i would.
if it makes someone's day. why not?
before i got off at my house bus stop
i said thank you to the bus driver
and he said thank you back!! omggg. seriously but he's the first bus driver that ever acknowledge me.
chloe:" omg zac, did you hear that? he said thank you"
zac:" ya i was wondering why you said thank you for"
zac:"actually you shouldn't cause he didn't help that guy"
ahhh well. but i guess he did me a favour for getting me from one place to another right?
sooooo i had to thank him.
its funny how singaporeans find it funny when i thank bus drivers.
seriously. try saying thank you before you get off the bus
count the number of people staring at you.
they stare as if they never heard the word "thank you" before in their entire lives
whatevs. i know heaps of people think i'm weird. but maybe i guess i've learnt to appreciate the little favours in life.
and seriouslyyyyyyyyyy
i'm soo glad that i've learnt to appreciate the little things in life.
these are prolly the things that makes life a lot sweeter and easier to get through.
try being nice next time (: you might make someone's day
how awesome is that?
