The signal is subtle
We pass just close enough to touch
No questions, no answers
We know by now to say enough
With only simple words
With only subtle turns
The things we feel alone for one another
There is a secret that we keep
I won't sleep if you won't sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given
We are compelled to do what we must do
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden
So I won't sleep if you won't sleep tonight

sunday manners
it's bad enough that a significant portion of 4 million+ people throng the streets of the only "exciting" place in singa-bore. and they left their manners somewhere with their saturday night/early sunday morning hangover.
i don't believe that singaporeans' mouths are filled with precious gold because our only resource is... well, ourselves. so, why is it so bloody hard to say 'excuse me', when they wish to pass through a narrow walkway, a crammed area or are in a bit of a rush?
3 syllables: X-CUUUSSSSSE-MEEEEE.
one middle-aged man with a backpack and earphones rammed into his ears just blatantly pushed me aside on the ascending escalator at orchard mrt station. i was uber irritated by then because a few people before that were shoving their way through and annoyed the fuck out of me.
so what did i do?
i shouted at him, "YOU COULD SAY EXCUSE ME YOU KNOW!" but he either chose to ignore me or seriously didn't hear me though his earphones. while the rest of the crowd in front of me looked back and just glared.
the boy tried to calm me down and all i could mutter under my breath, without drawing anymore attention to myself was, "what? that guy was really rude!" if it wasn't for the boy refraining (or rather, RESTRAINING) me from doing more harm, i would've tugged on that bugger's backpack, ripped out his earphones (and possibly his ears) and screamed in his face.
fucker.
it's one thing to go about your little busy lives thinking everyone has to make way for you. it's another to have me as that person "in your way".
LP tomorrow! can't fucking wait! :D
