I GOT CHEATED!!!

argh, well, i knew i was getting cheated but yet i still stood there like a fool and let them take my money. only an ultimate dumb-asses like me get fooled like this. let me tell you what happened.

i was on my way to heartland mall kovan. i have to take an mrt so that day i walked to the station.

as i was walking up the stairs i saw a group of indian girls sitting on the railings, some were asking for donations.

i walked up the stairs and tried not to make eye contact. but unfortunately the group sorta like made a semi circle and surrounded me, and one of them started talking super fast, all i knew was that they wanted the money to help sick children and one ticket was $2. the talking girl held up this file with some certificate lookalike. like so obviously it was fake. the print was all blur and smudged. the whole thing didnt even look real la.

i said i had no small change. then another girl went," oh dont worry we have.. i have i have."

huh?

the money they got were put into folders. not even like tin cans where the money cannot be taken out again.

i didnt want to donate but i still took out my wallet and got a five dollar note out.

then. then. the indian girl started frowning, acting all pitiful, and told me to donate $4 to help poor, chronically ill children. " just $2 more, to help the sick children..."

i refused, saying that i needed the money as well.

immediately her attitude changed. she rolled her eyes and she went," oh ok, thankyou bye." then she walked away.

huh? urgh.

what rubbish. then i just walked to the escalator. i passed a construction worker and then i heard very loudly," eh uncle, got cigarette?"

oh my gosh. shock.

i looked at the ticket and i saw that they didnt even state the organisation name. just mkac- a friend in deed.

what the toot is mkac?

then at the corner of the ticket were two vouchers to tear out. one was some 10% discount when you eat at sapphire cuisine. ok, well, somewhat believable, maybe there was a resturant like that.

guess what. the next one sold SERANGOON AIR!

ahhhhh!!!!

stupid!!!

i couldnt believe my eyes.

enough said about this.

sighs-

all the while i knew i was being cheated and yet i stood there and let them take my money.

well, maybe i was afraid of what they might have done to me if i refused. can you imagine, i said i needed the money so can only give $2 and her face went so black already. what if i didnt donate anything? so many of them can easily kill one me.

these kinda things happen to me when i'm out alone. which is why i hate going out by myself.

oh, there was this once when i was walking up the hill from church. and this group of bengs with dyed hair and slippers were walking the opposite direction. they were walking in the middle of the road andi just looked down, continued to walk on.

then the group walked closer to me. and one stopped and said," ello!" and waved.

yikes.

i just fastened my paced.

from then on i try to get my brother to send me home after church every week..

unfortunately he hasnt learnt how to be a gentleman yet. sometimes he leaves me on my own to go out with his friends for dinner. and stuff.

oh well.

on those days i try find someone to walk with through the alleys. oh and sometimes i just try to get another person to make my brother send me home. my brother listens to other people but not me.

if i say lets go he would go," five minutes five minutes.. ok ok three."

then if i get someone like nicole or amy jie or any other jies to get him he would respond immediately.
