A Dramatic Sunday
The haze is back!!! Damn!! And its always Satuday that's badly affected.
Went for a brisk walk with April yesterday at 7:30am. Was joking about 'breathing in some stale air so that I can report sick for work today' to yuan when she called me and asked me to accompany her to Chinatown to look for favours for her wedding.
The drama happened when we were going home from Chinatown. Our bus hit a man jay-walking!!!! We heard a loud bang, and then I saw this man stagger to the pavement and sat down, his hands kept rubbing his head. The bus stopped and the driver went out to take a look. Apparently, the man kept insisting that he was ok!! WOW!!! How amazing! He had been hit by a DOUBLE-DECKER BUS and he could still walk perfectly!
All the KPOs on the bus flocked to one side of the window and began to watch 'free show'. How I wish the bus wouldn't topple to one side because the weight suddenly shifted to the left of the bus! Anyway, the guy who got hit didn't want to go to the hospital for a check-up. One passenger who got up the bus started telling stories like that man was an illegal worker, or had problems with his permit.... and then everyone started talking about that incident!
Singaporeans are strange creatures. They bond by talking behind people's backs........... haha... how queer!
After that, we dropped off outside Bedok Interchange, and there's this man who tried to pick up his coin which had rolled off onto the road! Thank God he made it quick or else he could have been knocked down by a passing vehicle! Aiyoh!!! For Goodness' sake! Its just a few bloody pieces of coins! You can always dig into your pocket for more! Or you could ask for change from someone at the bus stop, or the vendor selling newspapers nearby! Why risk your life over that?? Another strange person!
And as our bus was approaching this bus stop near Bedok Reservoir, there was a slight accident where a motorcyclist got involved and the police were there taking down statements.
Anyway, I thought I would fall sick because when I woke up this morning, I had a slight sore throat, and my nose was slightly blocked. Sianzzzzzzzzzzzzz........
