hi all, i've never felt so du lan in my life before. pardon the coarse language used.

i hope the suey-ness ends with the start of the new lunar year. Anyhow, met enloong while buying my crepes(main character of this encounter) at Novena. so we went back to school together. it included taking the MRT train to newton(scene of the crime). so basically i was holding onto my crepes, contained nicely in its little white paper bag and i picked like the crisps of the crepe and slide it into my mouth. oh for the record, it was oh-so-good. yup and i did this like twice while getting off the train at newton. so enloong and i were chatting happily, and exiting the gantry. and halfway through the gantry, the station master/guard/bouncer/whatever stopped me. imagine being stuck like in international waters, not in or out the station, just in the middle. and of course the stupid gate couldnt close so it was beeping and everything la. and the guy decided to impound my card there and then. that was the first thing that irked me. he said, "do you know its wrong to eat in the MRT station?" and i was like "i'm holding on to it only cos i dont have a plastic bag". he then decided to spoil my day by going "but i saw you eating". so i said "sorry, i took a few bites". oh the next thing that amused me was him telling me "you should know better, with the newspapers publishing SO MANY ARTICLES on eating on MRT" and i was like ???, almost on the verge of bursting into laughter. and ya, from then on he decided to issue me a summon. my crepe cost $33.20 in total. lol. enloong was behind me cussing, and luckily he was quite discreet about it. if i wasnt in school uniform, i'd have probably wriggled my way out and been more aggressive. but as always, we've to think twice as "elite" students belonging to an "elite" school. pardon the sarcasm, but i think its always look better from the outside.

so, after grumpily spending my entire afternoon in huang cheng, i realised that most people get warnings first. but hey, i didnt even get a single one! and i think he's picking on me on purpose, and most likely i'll be having a smb post and perhaps a few demerit points for er, "subject caught eating while exiting the mrt station."(exact quote on the summon) told dad and he was like dont pay, let's go court. haha jokingly of course. mum was more of like, you should have told him you needed some sustenance, otherwise he'll be responsible if i faint etc etc. (yes that's where i learn to be shrewd from) thankfully, they're supportive of me, not just blaming me aimlessly. yes i do acknowledge i was at fault, but i tried to be discreet and as clean as possible(plucking the crisp and not gorging myself hungrily, which was my lunch at 5pm, last having ate at noon), so i felt the situation could be handled better. and i was in school uniform. that's pretty much why i decided to remain passive throughout the whole incident. maybe its just feeling so tired after physio and everything, i couldnt really be bothered to argue.

i kinda thought of my "sorry i failed you school" speech at morning assembly. but overall, i think if the issue really gets blown out of proportion, and to that extent, (my mum will be a very angry mum for one) and the whole incident will seem so farcical. so very farcical.

i suppose, Singapore is really a fine city. and today, i nearly almost turned racist. its not good to generalize anyway.大事化小，小事化无。

Just some random ALMANAC stuff my mum/aunts are so excited about. HORSES - like you and i, arent suppose to wear RED but instead GREEN (*chinese new year -> hari raya). Apparently, we're also in for a depressing year, and mum has been constantly reminding me to have a positive outlook and laugh everyday. gee, i think jianzhong and co will disagree. i think i laugh too much. lol. but that's the way i am.

not much mood now. kinda irritated and moody cos of the incident.

ps. thanks jerry, sorry if i sounded abit over-the-board.
pps. suayu, i honestly didnt know.
