beware of weird people at bus stops..

i was at the bus stop opp far east going home after a failed attempt at getting a bag for my aunt on a public holiday in orchard. my gosh the crowds are horrible and mean and scary and well maybe i'm exaggerating, but i just cant stand crowds, especially holiday orchard road crowds..

anyway, so i was at the bus stop right, and this weird guy asked if i was singaporean. like hUh?! does it matter to you whether or not i am?! i mean normal people dont just go up to complete strangers and ask them which country they're from.
so i just gave him a weird look and he then started gesturing to his face and said "face don't look like" and i guess i gave him an are-you-completely-nuts look and he just smiled sheepishly and walked away..
aww.. and i didnt even get to ask him which country he thought i came from ....

a few minutes later, another guy came up to me and asked "erm do you speak english?" erm, what kind of question is that?! i mean we're in singapore and almost all local 18 year olds are able to speak at least simple basic english right? (whether you can understand their brand of english is another question altogether) so i said "yeaa..." and he went on to ask to borrow money cos of something that happened to his atm card.. but unfortunately for him, i'm broke as well and had like a $1 coin and a few other 20cent and 10 cent coins on me.. oh well..

so this got me thinking, do i not look like your typical singaporean lian? i thought i did.. well, some people think i dont, and i guess that's WONDERFUL newS! :) haha maybe i look like some exotic island girl! yea right in your dreams siti..
