Did I not mention this annoying habit of mine?

No. Not annoying to me. But probably annoying to others. *cues malicious witch cackle*

If I'm not 'minding my own business'...
Let's just say I get extremely bored during my daily commute to and back from work.

Especially now that the US dramas which I'm so diligently following have all gone on hiatus till fall.

Like what's up with that ?! Why!?

Anyway, it's super silly that there's a few stations where network connectivity is low. And I have no access to the internet nor radio. Seriously ?! It's freaking Singapore. Even underground stations in Taipei had better connection. You freaking kidding me?! First world my fungus infected foot. Seriously.

Speaking of which, they're gonna make Singapore's ezlink valid for use in taipei 's train stations and vice versa.

Can I just say that I didn't feel overwhelmed by Taipei's crowd when I commuted off off and during peak hours?!
People queue up in an orderly fashion to board the train, strictly stood to the side on the escalators and they don't smell funky. I didn't smell anything unpleasant ever on their trains. And nobody sits on the reserved seats for the elderly/disabled/pregnant ladies/parent with child. The Taiwanese definitely don't need things like Stomp to ward off inconsiderate behaviours.

But the trade off was, there was this whole crazy college guy stabbing rampage incident when I was there! Like wth?! I've never been to Taipei and when I finally got the chance to, this insane retard decided to do this kind of shit act.

Thank God we were all at the conference on that day.
And it sucks that nobody asked about my wellbeing when I was away.
I heard nada from my mom. Like she didn't care if I was possibly one of the victims in this stabbing incident?

One more thing, Taipei's escalators are slooooow. You know how Singapore escalators go slow when nobody's on it but accelerates when someone gets on? The speed for Taipei's escalators is slightly faster than that. LOL

'nuff bout Taipei.
I was surprisingly slightly disappointed by Taipei.
Perhaps was coz it was mostly for work. But I had fun with my colleagues the few days we got to wander Round the city.

Damit. Now that I've rambled on so much.


I was gonna describe my inevitable urge to stare/ peer at other people's mobile device screens.

Yea. Tablet, phones, whatever. As long as the screen is illuminating and the owner is within close proximity, I will stare. Muahahaha

That includes texting, watching videos, playing games, checking emails, online shopping, reading news, reading ebooks, Heck, even ongoing video calls.


Heh.

Can I just tell you my observations? I'm sure its intriguing what Singaporeans do on their phone.

Oh. I take that back..not always Singaporeans.

So anyway.

Here are my findings!
People here:
  • Text like they need to go through elementary language lessons. Seriously? You call that English? It doesn't even look it. And I guess I need to go thru elementary Chinese lessons again myself? Coz all the cheena people text in Chinese I didnt quite understand. Don't get me started on how some people text in mush it's literally disgusting. Pfft.

Crap. It is my stop. I have to get off at Jurong east interchange. The platform is friggin crowded! Ugh! I get this urge to say to any idiots who get in my path, 'You need to get out of my way.'
  • Need to have better tastes in their choice of dramas. Seriously?! Taiwan 偶像剧?! Some random Korean dramas, cheena Chinese dramas, Korean variety show. Needless to say, that would always be running man. So nice meh? I've seen it. Nothing too addictive.
  • Like to Facebook stalk people. I'm serious. Even I do. Heh.
  • Older folks like past 40 still playing Candy Crush. Really? That's so last year.
  • Need to get better phones other than exorbitantly priced plastic phones. A.k.a. Samsung phones..Heh. I feel instant camaraderie with HTC phone users. Like every HTC user and I exchange knowing nods. I mean, not with strangers but at least with acquaintances and people I know. Such bond. Lol. Then again, in Taipei, almost everyone's using HTC..it's like how cool? And for the first time there are actually quite a wide array of selection for HTC one phone accessories!
  • Should freaking get a screen protector. Not from scratches but from prying eyes. Do you know how tiring it is to be this judgmental?!

Alright amigos. Me goes cut hair. Long overdue.

My hair is so long... And flat. Sian.

And frizzy. Sass
