Thursday, September 21st, 2006Unless people can start calling things like my campus routine, my concern over the constantly changing weather, and my involvement in assisting worldwide deforestation interesting…then nothing much has been up. But one can always depend on me when it comes to ensuring a dynamic refrigerator turnover. For that, I shall blame the cold weather.
So I guess I’ll just try to reflect on some minor incidents that kind of make me think a little (and I think I think too much about unimportant things…heheh). Anyway, the other night I was getting on a bus from Caulfield. It was the last bus to go and it was packed with students. I got on rather late and so I could not get a seat. However, there were more unfortunate others who tried to sandwich themselves and some who could not even step into the bus. In the middle of this tuna can situation; I noticed that the last person standing at the rear of the bus was actually not standing at the furthest end of the bus. Trying to practice my role as a fine temporary
Melbourne resident, I asked the person behind me to inform those behind him to move back. And upon my request, he simply said,
“Cannot, got my friends here…”
“………………..”
Huh? Like, helloooo? What’s this? Junior high? And I had thought that I would never see such a smile ever again after my prefect days were over. How ironic. So I started wondering if he was sharing some kind of an invisible spinal cord with his friends. Well, I couldn’t find any spineys hanging around and so I began trying to figure out if there is actually some plausible enigmatic rationalisation behind his action (and that smirk…that little smirk…).
But I don’t really want to be mean right now and, honestly, I have no idea…oh well…I’m not sure how to end this, so…
