Awful day....
Event 1:
Was heading towards the toilet in PS when a weird lady stopped me and tried persuading me to enter the bridal shop to take a look at the gowns... (WTF) Despite me telling her nicely that I'm still young, not planning to get married, she kept pestering me and was nagging as if I'm some spinster that really needs to grab a gown and get married...
"Come see, not getting married also can come see..."
WTF... Say don't want to see liaoz lah.. don't waste my time lah!!! Irritating.. So, I simply juz walked off and 'escaped' into the washroom.. (best of all, even when I left, she kept 'shouting' and encouraging me to enter the shop...)
Yeah, this is the aggressive style of grabbing customers.. But, for goodness sake, DO I LOOK LIKE I'M READY TO GET MARRIED???? Even if I were to enter, do I look like I'll suddenly fall in love with something there and burn my pockets juz to buy it? Hell NO~ So, pls use some brain and use this marketing stunt on someone more worth the time!!!
Event 2:
Not too keen to go into details abt it...
Event 3:
Was in a bad mood (thanks to event 2)... and was heading out of the washroom with a black face and feeling damn pissed...
Walked past a Father pushing a boy in a stroller... At the passing moment, the boy turned to me, gave a naughty grinz and did a 'Kick' action and laughed... * Father did nothing and moved on...
KeY:
(walking on and saying aloud to herself) "That's rude!"
Boy's Mother:
(who appeared frm nowhere and spoke in a harsh tone) "He's only a little boy!"
KeY:
(shocked that Mother heard what she said yet, continued to walk on...) "At least YOU cld have apologised!"
Boy's Mother:
(still walking on in the opposite direction) "He can't even speak how to apologise...."
(fades away, as KeY turns into the corner...)Sigh, Mdm, you stupid or wat, obviously I know ya kid is too young to apologise, I am expecting YOU (the parent) to apologise to me, not him, for heaven's sake!
Actually, I really didn't know that Boy's mother was ard. If I did, I probably would have kept my dissatisfaction to myself and not commented. But after I blurted it out, I felt proud of myself that I did voice out my unhappiness! (Muahahaha, I ain't no pushover!)
As I was walking home, I reflected on what happened. I kinda wonder, was I being too harsh on the parents? Maybe the kid was simply being mischievous and playful. Actually, I was not angry at the boy, but instead at the parents. Guess all my anger would be eased if either of the parents were to tell the boy,
"It's wrong to do that, you shouldn't do it..." But the fact that the mother ended up being defensive for smthg the child did wrong, made me even more pissed. (Spare the rod and spoil the child lah~)
How else was I supposed to react to the child's behavior? Go weak on my knees and "goo0-ing" , "Oh, your son is soooo cute?" CRAP! NO WAY! This child needs to be taught some manners!! If he doesn't get it right now, how do u expect him to respectful in the future! And how cld his parents juz pretend they saw nothing and let things be?
Fine fine, I admit it.. the boy is juz at the wrong place at the wrong time and did the wrong thing.. Thus, his parents ended up being my target for venting my anger.. (In contrast, on a normal day, in a normal mood, I prob juz move off feeling damn disgusted, yet keep my comments to myself...)
Bad Timing lah... Tough Luck...
My fren advised to blog more happy tots.. and that wld make me a happier person.. BUT, when you meet such stupid things everyday.. How can you expect to be happy?
Life is a shithole~
