school starts tomorrow:(
ah well. actually i kinda like school. not the lessons, but the friends :D
so cliche. haha.
saturday was very very eventful. i argued with some stranger who was about 30+.
along with my dad and sis and mum lah. haha.
on sat, my grandfather suddenly wanted to go out and have a look-see.
so we bundled him into the car, and drove around places like east coast, chinatown, etc.
then we brought him to the marina barrage. and that place is really beautiful. it was very windy, so there were like a million kites dotting the sky, and so many people were picnicking.
oh wait missed the point.
when we reached there, we found some inconsiderate fool had parked his bmw in the lot for the handicapped. so rude of him lah!! rich so what!
so then we luckily managed to find a parking lot quite close to the entrance, then my dad went in to tell the barrage people about the idiot who parked his car in the handicap lot. then they mmm-ed and ahhh-ed then muttered something vague about making an announcement, and if the announcement didn't work, they would do something, like fine him.
so then off we went, to see the sights and play in the water. then about 2 hours later, we left the place and guess what we saw in the handicap parking lot. yes, the shiny bmw which looked like it had every right to be there.
then of course we were rather miffed, because we didn't see any fine on the car. the barrage people were all talk and no action. useless bums.
so my dad went in again, and demanded that they do something. i mean they have to, in order to teach the bmw guy a lesson, or else in future a handicapped person would be deprived of a parking lot.
so after more humming and hawwing, one of the guys there got up and went to take a look at the car. more announcements were made, more promises of fining and action, and all that crap. seriously lah, the barrage people are damn inefficient. service is rubbish man.
then my dad was pushing them to take some action, but they seemed so reluctant. from their faces, i saw that they were just hoping we would drive away and they wouldn't have to move their lazy asses and do something.
but, haha, my dad stayed. he's like that. aaanyway, after ages and ages, they car owner finally came. let's call him annoying jerk, or AJ. (at this point i'm asking the barrage guy how long it takes to write a fine, and do they take one minute to write one letter? if i'm already like that, imagine how pissed my dad was. he was already calling the traffic police.)
yes, finally, AJ came. the bumbling fool swaggered over and narrowed his eyes at us and asked in a self-righteous voice what was wrong. so my dad was so incredulous. so they started argueing, with the useless barrage guy trying to cut in, and WA LAO that AJ is really a fat-assed jerk.
he started acting like he wasn't in the wrong, scolding my dad(not insulting, sadly, or we could've filed a complaint against him!) and oh man, i was so pissed. my sister and i started joining in, my sister scolding the AJ and me scolding the barrage guy.
okay, i say scolding, but it's more...scold in a polite way. my dad was actually talking in a normal voice, then AJ started raising his voice, so (hahaha) my sister was like, why are you raising your voice? why are YOU raising your voice?
so he was like, no, i'm not, i'm not raising my voice, then i said yes, yes you are. you obviously are raising your voice. and i know we both were rather rude too, but i can't help it. people like them don't deserve to be talked to politely.
well, after a lot of, uh, exchange of words, AJ said, i move my car, you just fine me lah! fine then fine lah!
i REALLY REALLY REALLY loathe these people who think that money can solve everything. i don't care if you have a shiny bmw, i don't care if you live next to the president, heck, you may own half the property in singapore for all i care.
you're downright bloody mean and inconsiderate, and if being rich means you become like HIM, i'd rather become a roadside beggar.
i kept giving him the dirtiest looks i could muster. also kept giving the barrage guy a look that said he was useless. i mean he totally was. he did nothing. except stand there and look like he was doing something to resolve the conflict.
and i also really hate the other two barrage people in the office!!! when the AJ came, my dad sent me to get the office to tell them he was here. so i went to the office, and told the two girls sitting there that the bmw car owner was here, and could they send someone down.
they gave me why-are-you-complicating-my-life looks, and i just stared back expectantly at them.
at this point another man came up and made an enquiry, and suddenly his case was so important that both the girls had to give him their full attention!! so they immediately ignored me and asked the guy with a smile, hello sir how may we help you?
i really feel like writing some expletives. they're so horrible!!!
so i glared at the girl closest to me, and said loudly, EXCUSE ME. I SAID THE BMW GUY IS HERE. COULD YOU SEND SOMEONE TO SEE TO THE MATTER. PLEASE? then i gave her a syrupy sweet smile. then the girl returned the glare and snapped at her walkie talkie.
i love making rude people angry. of course, if they're mean to me first.
this blog post is really all over the place, but i'm still too annoyed to care. all these people totally spoiled our day. from the dumb broad who owns the bmw, to the useless and so NOT service oriented barrage people. i keep using the word useless, but that's really what they are.
so the place is nice, people are not. i don't think i'll go back there soon, even though i badly wanted to go again to picnic and fly a kite.
see. those people chase potential visitors away.
my dad wants us to write a letter to the forum. whoo, maybe, i've never written one before. i'll be sure to emphasize the disappointing service standards. maybe mention names. the upstairs people will scold them man.
i will feel no remorse.
