today started out not so nice. initially, i didn't intend to blog because i am feeling really worn-out and sleepy, with many things weighing on my mind. however, many interesting things happened today which really urged me to write an entry on it. started out as a supposedly fun day. don't really know why, but i truly enjoy flag-selling. so, i was looking forward to flag-selling today, met up with candice at kovan mrt station before meeting up with the rest of the class at kovan hub. then, met carmen at the mrt station entrance and she said she was waiting for keet, so we waited with her. after much waiting, keet finally came, along with the prc scholars. as we were pressed for time, we brisk-walked all the way there. okay, all these are not important at all. now, for the more crucial part. okay, i was ditched at kovan mrt station this morning, was all alone for a good 6mins or so. how did this happen? the story goes like this...initially, i was supposed to sell flags with candice, julie and jessica, then candice wanted the best of both worlds and expected me to join "her". however, i refused, so candice was like trying to pull "us" together. then, when i suggested a destination, candice would tell "her" the destination, causing "her" to think that i was joining "her" in selling flags. later, my obstinate nature caused candice to break down and almost leave the mrt station. she called keet to ask if she could join her and at that time, the train just arrived and candice kept calling me, julie and jessica to enter the train, which i refused to do so unless candice let me join her or she joined me. then, in order to let me enter the train, candice ran down the steps, followed by julie, then jessica and when i ran towards the train, the doors closed on me. i actually expected that already so it wasn't a shock at all. well, better being left outside alone then to be half body inside and half outside! anyway, as expected also, i received a call from candice and she asked me to wait for the next train and asked if i was alright or not. i then told her that i was fine and i wasn't frightened or anything, so she didn't need to worry. however, when i took the next train where candice, julie and jessica were supposed to join me, i saw "her" as well. omg, thought i could shake "her" off but unfortunately i couldn't. didn't understand why "she" had to tag along as well. okay, well, i shall end the unhappy episode here.Now, for the interesting parts..."omg, so cute! jinx!" that was what julie and i said simultaneouosly when we saw ryan t. waving at us and we waved back at him. don't be mistaken. ryan t. is an adorable small boy who so cutely donated to our donation bag when i didn't even ask him to. he just ran up to me and fished out his wallet, digging for coins and dropping them into my donation bag, then, as julie was beside me, he dropped some coins into her bag as well. haha. so cute! then, as he walked a distance and we were watching him walk away, he suddenly turned his head around and waved to us, flashing a really cute smile! okay, i really can't get over ryan t. for now. haha. we assume he's called ryan t. as we saw that name imprinted on his football jersey. next interesting thing. as julie, jessica and i were walking on the pavement towards somerset, we saw 3 guys who were also carrying the same donation bag approaching us. we didn't really expect anything at all, so we were kind of shocked when the 3 of them exclaimed when we came into close contact with them, "hello, would you like to donate? hahaha..." the 3 of us who were sort of shocked at that time just smiled back. then, 1 of them suddenly shouted back at us, "you know, smiling is not an answer!" then the 3 of us were kind of 'half diao and half pissed' with that remark and i said,"what the..." then julie was like saying that she should have given them a 'no-no' finger sign. haha, that was cute. okay, shall end here for now. the entry is far too long.
