Evil Overslept. Late by 1/2 hr.
In fact is not overslept, jus that I was unwillingly to leave my bed.
(The enthusiasm to teach the kids seems to wear off...majority due to the unbearable cold air con in my centre...its making pple sick....) On the way to my wk place, I met this elderly who asked me which side of train should he take to goes to lavender. I jus point the opposite side to him and tell him tt it should be opp. Forgot that there is two train opp.
(Tanah merah has got 3 lanes, 1 going to the Pasir Ris direction, the other to Boon Lay and lastly to Changi Airport) Then the train came. I jus got on the train and gave him direction at the entrance. But doesnt seem to understand my poor directions given. Then I realise he is confused with the line going to Changi Airport and walked over to asked the pple there. However, the person whom he asked is a foreigner n obviously he dunno the way...By this moment...the train door closed...I only could point helplessly behing the glass window pane, trying to point opp. I hate myself for not getting out of the train which I shld bring him there.
1) I hate myself for being late (and I am late again... Scare boss not happy. But sort of contradictory. Scare boss not happy but still late...) not being able to help him. But come to serious thought. If I am not late I wont be able to meet him.
2) I hate myself 4 being so mercenary. Coz my wk is hourly paid. I was unwillingly to spend anothe 8min to wait 4 the next train to come after bringing him over. HALO!!! 8min its like I only earn 70 cents less. Yet I m unwilling. Wat the....
3) Bad at expressing myself. If I can say clearly tt: U have to go down the escalator n get to the other side of the lane to take the train rather than 'its the opposite one' he might have got it easily rather than looking so lost.
This was a good incident for me though...I made me realise that I have been more n more evil after working. When it was approaching 9pm I would rush all those students tt came in late to do their wk (they have do a min of 1/2hr wk b4 they can go). Imagine...when u r learning and ur teacher is rtushing u to finish ur wk...how much can u learnt??? coz I wanna rush home to watch show. V bad rite...
Since when I become so evil...in contrast to an incident 2yrs, I can jus help a toddler pick up her doll on the road instinctively after she dropped when she attempt to turn back n picked it up. hmmm...
