On Saturday, I had 2 encounters with men whom I do not know and had some strange/funny conversation.
1st encounter - 8.30am @ Century Square taxi stand
I went to Century Square's
Coffeebean to buy the breakfast sets for 2 colleagues and myself. While waiting at the taxi stand for a cab, the security guard who was there also chatted with me. The conversation went something like this....
SG = Security Guard
SG: Morning Miss.
Me: Morning. (Thinking: Oh no, I hate conversations in the morning when I'm still half-asleep & with someone I don't know)
SG: You work nearby?
Me: Nope.
SG: Are you Filipino?
Me: No. I'm Singaporean. (Thinks: Bloody hell, I look like one meh?)
SG: Oh, there are a lot of IT and data centres here, I thought you work here, a lot of Filipinos and foreigners. Nowadays a lot of Singaporeans nowadays cannot tell if they're Chinese or Malay etc.
Me: Ya... Got international face. (Thinks: Where the hell is my cab?)
Finally, a cab comes, my life savior!
SG: Here comes your cab. Bye Miss.
Me: Bye. (Quickly walks towards the cab)
SG: Where you heading to? Where you working at?
Me: Work, Alps Ave.
After getting on the cab, I wondered why I even answered his last question? *faintz*
2nd encounter - After work, 3+pm somewhere around SimeiI was taking bus 9 from Changi Cargo Complex to Tampines St. 21 to switch bus to no. 8 as I was heading to Hubby's place. When I was reaching the bus-stop where I was supposed to alight at, my mobile rang, a customer had called. So while on the phone, I forgot to alight at the bus stop and the bus turned into Simei. Arghz. So I had to alight at Simei and instead of taking bus 9 back again, cross the road and switch to 8, I decided to take a cab as I was freaking tired and sianz.
I managed to get a cab quite fast, but alas, that's where I encountered the weird uncle... TD = Taxi Driver (a uncle in his 40's-50's wearing specs, plump and balding). By the way, all below conversation is in Mandarin.
Me: Ubi Ave 1
TD: You want some bread? (Offers me his bread)
Me: Nope, thanks. (Thinks: Pengz, I dunno you and you offer me bread, you think I dare to eat meh?)
TD: At this time going there can't be for work. Going to learn driving?
Me: Nope.
TD: Going to the industrial parks?
Me: Nope, going home.
TD (in a gayish tone): 讨厌!All I guess wrongly.
Me (-_-|||): .... (Thinks: OMG, that's bloody gross, can I slap his head?)
TD: There got a clinic at Blk 300+, very good one, a lot of people queue one. Must early morning go, very good for treatment of legs. You know where? Seen the clinic before?
Me: Nope, I don't stay there, my bf stays there, I'm going his place.
TD (in that bloody gayish tone again): 讨厌!You have bf one ah.
Me thinks: Kaoz, so what if I have bf? Even if don't have, I also not interested in you loh.
Then he kept quiet while we were on the expressway and I thought I was safe liao. BUT... When exiting the expressway, he talked to me again which made me feel like he's one of those serial killer on TV.
TD: Don't know why nowadays got those China women call/sms my phone, how they get my number? Call me and tell me "My name is Xiao Tong, I got a friend whose figure is very good, very svelte, you interested can find her." I call her back and tell her I'm the police, I can catch her based on her address. She then denies calling me before.
Me thinking: Siao liao... Doesn't sound right...
TD: Dunno why the govt allow these women to come to Singapore? The other foreigners come don't have such a problem, unlike these China women. *in a agitated tone* These women are really 下贱, got problem.
Me thinks: Die liao, he sound like those serial killer who think women are bitches and deserve to die and be killed...
TD: Got one time I went TTSH for doctor appt, got a China woman approach me, ask me need massage or not? Hospital they also go, really cheap. I told them, upstairs a lot patients need their massage. She scold me pervert.
Me thinks: OMG, shit, chaim liao... He's really pervert...
Luckily by then reaching Hubby's place le, I quickly paid my fare and hurriedly got off the cab. I was so freaked out and afraid, quickly called Bixin to complain to her. She was exclaiming omgz all the way, haha...
Haiz, really my luck loh. Always genna these kindda weird things, sob sob...
