So Fun This Train Ride

When I got on the train at Ang Mo Kio this evening, it wasn't crowded. But it wasn't empty either. I sat next to this guy at the corner.

He was wide awake when I sat down. When the train moved out of the station, he was seemingly nodding off to sleep. In a matter of seconds. Right.

I narrowed my eyes at him. Never mind. I focused on my book. Then his stupid shoulders also nodded towards me, bumping my shoulder with every big and tiny jolt of the train.

So damn obvious can. I shut my book and waited.

When the train left Novena station, his head drooped closer to my shoulder. I took a deep breath to last at least 30 seconds, pitched the yell at the highest and piercingly aimed it into his ear.

He literally leapt out of his seat and ran to the other corner while hollering "你神精病!!" He disappeared into the cabins beyond.

I laughed out loud and glanced around. The woman on my other side also got up promptly and went off to the next cabin. The entire cabin of about 18 other people looked really stunned. Well, whatever. Nobody said anything and everyone avoided eye contact with me.

Not funny meh?

Wahahahahahahhaha. Priceless, I tell you. I had this idiotic grin plastered on my face all the way home.

Bravo. I'd have done the same.

Out of curiosity. Did he come from where I am working now? The people in here do not seemed to understand what is 'personal space' - whether they're awake, sleeping on trains/buses/ or at least pretending to be asleep. I'll share my horrid stories with you next time.

"Best" part. They smell. It gets worst during winter when you think it should be better. Heh.
