Of Favors.
Was commenting to Roy that some people only come look for us when they need something from us. Am really sian diao by these people lo. It's like out of the blue they message you, be it asking you to buy a policy or help them look for textbooks. SB - Hey! How are ya? Me - ...(feeling weird) SB - You got covered by insurance anot? Most of the times you would fail la. I can't believe you even tried. SB - Hey, you got FM textbook? Me - No. Give away le. SB - Help me find, can? Me - Err..okay. SB - Be quick. What else can I say right? It seems like I am the most free person right now, and people are asking me to find textbooks for them. To me, these things are touch and go kind lor. You ask, they don't have, end of story. By asking a favor from them, you are assuming we are very close, which is not at all. The ultimate happened last night which made me want to rant this shit. After helping the hell out of my fellow INSTEP mate, she says something that turns me off immediately. [Morn] She - Can do me a favor? Come to school and pass me the air tics' receipt because this is the only day I will be coming to school. Me - Okay lor. She - Thanks. [Night] Me - Oh ya, remember to register for your subjects later. She - What you taking ar? Me - Biz comm, marketing and strategic management. She - Oh, I'm taking Info System. Me - Oh ya, you Grp B de. Do you have Biz comm text then? She - Have. But I kept it liao. Very mafan to take it out. Me - Oh okay. What else can I say? I mean I asked because we are going to San Diego together so I can save my friends' trouble of passing the book to me. Dear old Roy is passing me his super bulky strategic management book to me at Orchard to aid my KTV session later at night. Good man. Wait now. Am I guilty of the same things I'm hating now? I usually only mafan the pple I know well. You know it's an exchange kinda thing. I entertain them to an extent that not helping me is super wrong indeed. Hahaha. Maybe I did mafan pple I seldom talks to, but not before asking the familar ones and being desperate. Even so, it's mostly touch-and-go. Can't help? Thanks anyway. I am clueless about how I should treat these people leh. Those who come to find you only when they need you. And they fuck off almost immediately of getting what they want or knowing they are not getting anything from ya. So next time... SB - Hi, how are ya? Me - What do you want from me this time? Sweet!
shoi - hahaha. thanks, i will take care and blog more if the gals are too tall.
