So near, yet so far.

Met up with Zaneta after what I feel like its ages since the last time we met. Shopping with her felt really awesome! But too bad good times go by in just a blink of an eye...

Work has been awesome with great friends made, but the travelling was utter RUBBISH. I hate squeezing in crowded MRTs but no choice. I can't be late for work or I'll be cut up into pieces by my boss...Nah just kidding(: Anyways, I wanna share some makes-me-really-fired-up encounters on crowded MRTs (just in case you're wondering why I bold and made the "crowded MRTs" in red, I'm trying to say that it can really KILL.)

Makes-me-really-fired-up encounter #1:
So one day, I was being squashed(as usual)in a crowded train to outram park when halfway thru the journey a man boarded the train. He was standing about an arm diagonally away from me initially, then when the crowd got bigger, the man just stood right in front of me, back facing me la. He got BO seriously! Then my worse nightmare came true. HE TURNED AND FACED ME. WHAT'S WORSE, HE RAISED BOTH ARMS UP AND GRABBED THE POLE ON TOP OF MY HEAD. I got a shock of my life and I was really trying super hard to breathe properly without showing it...but I seriously cannot tahan the smell so I took out my jacket and started breathing into it-.- Eh, I know you are thinking that it's already damn obvious but I really got no other way man. I can't turn around as it's too squeezy to even move. Even at times he kept moving closer to me, I still gotta tahan till he leaves. Thank god he left early. If not I'll be the next major singapore news of a 17 year old girl who fainted on a crowded train due to suffocation of BO! :(

Makes-me-really-fired-up encounter #2:
Another day on another yet again crowded train, I was leaning against the glass panel beside the doors thru'out the whole journey to work. And at some point, the train got really crowded till there was practically no space for a physically petite person to squeeze in. THEN there was a woman who has a body of +++ size. I am really not trying to critisize her about her size cos I'm not very slim either... Anyways, I don't know which part of the crowded train did she not realise that no one can fit into it anymore and she just walked into the train like there is specially a spot left for her and everyone within the next metre or so was practically screwed by her presence. She thought she could fit in perfectly well, but from my angle her boobs and her tummy was already going to be sandwiched anytime. The train wasn't moving for nearly 2 min and I guess she finally knew she was out of place, she walked out and waited for the next train. Thank goodness(:

Then I heard what she had to say: Haiyo, still got so much space for me and don't want to close the door. -.-
