Current Mood: Indescribable
So the past week has been mixed for me. I've experience many things that I've experienced before...but spiced up...I guess that's the only way I can describe it.
Firstly, Road Rage!! I've experience road rage before, especially if you've ever been to China! Now that's one hell of a road rage breeding ground. I've screamed, I've yelled, I've told my dad to toot the horn, I've tooted the horn! But have never done anything outrageous.
So yes, last Sunday, I was turning out of my side street onto the main road with oncoming traffic, when I decided to be in a foolishly brave mood. In other words, I did not give way...I mean, it was still safe! The next car was still quite a few metres away! I assumed that my cutting in front of that car caused some form of braking as the guy decided to beep me.
Anyway, we stop at the intersection, and he pulled up to my right. Now, I knew he was going to do something to me, so I purposely looked the other way for a while, ignoring him. Unfortunately, I turned to talk to my cousin and saw that guy (probably in his 50's) leaning eagerly/angrily over his open window, looking at me. Then almost in slow motion, I saw him stick his finger up at me, I turned away, and impulsively stuck my finger back at him. A moment later, the light turned green and I zoomed off.
Now why is it that after an event happens, you think of the right/witty/funny thing to say? Because as I was driving off, I had the urge to roll down my window and yell "Just suck it up like a man!"
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time...
Second thing, work at Myer. I've done heaps of customer service/cash register stuff with the shop, but this was the first time doing it formally. I had a good time actually. It was like playing shop when you were young. But yes, funny thing was that I remember her story about getting hit in the wrong place...and I thought to myself - that won't happen to me. But alas, it did! Twice!
Once was because I went to a different register and every register opens at a different speed (I never realised!) So yes, that was the 2nd register I was on, and it just popped open, quick as lightening! Didn't even know what hit me! Until the onset of pain, of course...And the other time, I was just lost...I wasn't concentrating and forgot that the register actually opens...hmmm, stupid mistake. Won't happen again.
Thirdly. I've been asked out before, but never face to face. So that's what happened today. And do you know how hard it is to decide then and there? It was so much easier to accept/reject if it was over the phone or msn or email or sms....*sigh*. It was very ironic to happen on the day when honestly 1 hour and 15 mins earlier, I was saying that I wasn't actively looking for a boyfriend - if it happens, it happens.
I'm very lost on what to do...might need to sleep on it.

ahaha..at least there wasn't anything there to be hit, unlike other 'girls' ;)
Oh but hang on, if it's only a few inches, then..it shouldn't hurt too much right???
i wonder what the history is with all these gender bending...
At least i am not as confused as the first time around.
hehe, it's just payback for the 'him' , 'him' and 'her' thingy
But yeah, the history of it all will take too long, and not to mention - we'll probably get confused trying to explain it. Maybe one of these days we'll sit down and work it out...
Ah, that means history is still in the making! Anyone interfering now will cause a significant shift in the bio-political electronic-gender landscape!
Mwahahahahahahahaha *rubs hands*
