holla

ok...yes it might be a sunday...
but i shall blog about saturday instead...
saturday was an interesting day, from which i learnt ALOT about singaporeans and foreigners in particular...

haha, yeah yeah...
i had CIP...
at centrepoint there, so yeah, had a fair mix of tourist and locals alike...
and boy..
i met so so many different kinda characters i tell you...

firstly, i realised being black helps ALOT...
haha, its like all the indians i approached donated luh...
woohoo, some kinda skin colour advantage...
BUT
there are exceptions..
the indians who donated are Singapore indians...
those from the big over-populated piece of land that THEY call mudder-land...
freaking BUDGET freakos la..
all like got some well rehearsed line...
" sari no chaaaange " - WITH THE TAMIL ACCENT...
*major turn-off*
i mean like WTH, is it like written in some rulebook...

Indians Who Wanna Come Singapore( Simplified Version )

If anyone approaches you and asks you to donate, memorise the following excuse and save 10 cents, or the equivalent of 2.50 Rupees. Enough to buy one bottle of coconut oil.

now the locals...
most of them are pretty nice...
they either donate, or have already donated to one of the 3741087437947 students walking around with the exact same tin.
but some of them are plain weird...
here are some weird reasons why some people donated to me..

1) This lady was so preoccupied with her thoughts that she walked right at me, and banged into me. Then she apologised and decided to donate after seeing i had a tin.

2) Ok, there was this freak la. He kept on turning back and looking at me. Then i thought he wanted to donate but shy/lazy to walk towards me, so i went to approach him. WAH, he see my coming he like evaporated la... RAN away, as though i walking towards him with a gun or something.. then the lady next to him had to comment, " such people..haiz...nevermind since he dnt donate i will donate".

Lady, i really thank you for the donation. BUT THANKS AH, had to gimme some sympathy comments. Really no face after that liao...

3) This guy had to donate some coins after asking me how long had i been standing there!

But hey, who cares, they donated right?

Now for the finale..
the 2 fellas who nearly asked for a whacking, but somehow survived as i'm a nice fella

FREAK no.1

This guy in office wear walks up to me...
and starts bombading me with questions.

1)how are you connected to Rotary International? ( the charity's name )
2)why are you doing this?
3)what is CIP?
4)so why only rotary international?
5)who does rotary international support?
6)what do you gain from doing this?

and countless more questions sia...
BUT
here's the shocker...
after 15 minutes of explaining all this rubbish to him..
he donated 10 cents...
*at this point, scream all the vulgarities you know and dedicate it to the idiot)

FREAK no.2

this 2 afro guys were in front of me. So since this damn rich white guy had kindly donated just moments prior to that, i decide to ask the guys. Wah, the fella looked at me like i was some cockroach and said "you should work hard and not beg!"...
i swear man, that was a total slap right into my chocolate face la...
then his friend read the words on the tin and told afro no.1 that i was asking for donations. WAH, then only he donated 5bucks...

BUT
NO USE

damage done liao...
i was fuming la...
CIP just sucks man...
its the easiest way to sell your face..on the streets...
but oh well, at least it tells me that most singaporeans are actually kind hearted people...
and that India Indians should just be catapulated back into their overpopulated patch of mud.
haiz, sad sad...
no wonder they use cheap coconut oil, and not LIKE ME, gatsby wax...
tsktsk...

ok...i am off...
