yesterday at the busstop waiting for bus to orchard.
this old cute lady came to me and asked if 608 goes to hong something ma tou.
right.
so i know ma tou is jetty/harbous whatever
but i dont know which one.
red what harbour?
then she said got alot of yin hang.
so i know its the one near raffles place with lots of banks!
cos i remember it being near north/south bridge road.
then cos due to ndp that bus rute got diverted.
so we were trying to analyse the map on the bus pole
then i saw the legend and smartly told her which line is the one the bus goes now.
and then she kept repeateing to me in chinese where she want to go.
then i replied in CHINESE that i thought its like somewhere along shenton way.
well.
i kind of helpfully pointed to the map and circled the area.
but i wasnt sure so i circled one quarter of the map.
haha so she wants to know where to stop.
but that map doesnt show each stop, just the road names.
so i kept telling her i not sure, she shld ask the bus uncle.
then after a minute of silence
she tried to tell me in english
her english so good lorh!
she read the road name correctly leh!
then she say in chinese.
wo bu hui jiang ying yu.
then i was like mei you lah, ni jiang de hen hao.
hur hur
then she continued in chinese.
blah blah.
then after every few miutes we would start on again on whether it was the correct route.
and i assure her gain i was rather correct.
when we finally established that.
i decided to make small talk in a bid to start my socialising goal.
so i said
ni qu na li zuo she me.
then she said you ren qing ke lah.
then i was like ohh.....the dunno what to say
then she said aiyah na me ma fan, ta men zhuan lai zhuan qu de
then i was like shi lorh, yin wei na ge guo qing re.
then i was thinking shit, is it guo qing re or guo qing jie?
haha
but who cares
so i decided to be abit more helpful and i look at the board/map thingy
and said.
ah shi lorh.shi shi wu he er shi qi re er yi.
then i realised that was abit wrong.
shldnt it be like qi yue shi wu re.
i just said like 15 re....
so weird.
anyway was really stupid.
then when i say bus uncle.
i said ba shi SHI ji
when it shld be ba shi SI ji.
haha oh well.
was hard to speak lui li chinese to her.
then after a long time.
she said.
aiyoh ze me na me jiu mei you bus lai
then i was like shi lorh quan dou shi bei ren ding le.
and everything a chartered bus passed by.
she would ask me what bus number that was.
and i would say ye shi bei ren ding le.
and we did the same thign TEN times.
then she went back to the map and ask me again.
grrr....
then she said na me wan le, ta yao chi dao le, she wants to take taxi or mrt.
in the end she took another bus to mrt station. cos after 30 minutes that was the only bus that came.
and i warned her cong mrt yao zou hen yuan.
cos she old cannot walk so far what
then in the end she dint get on the bus
she walk back to me and said.
aiyah wo zuo de shi bi jiao kuai lah.
so she went to hail her cab.
and she dint say THANKS.
hmph.
but i broke the awakward silences lorh!
but hahahaha
got so many minutes of silence so we kept talking about the same thing, the map.
and when she got on the taxi.
i look at the map again.
and i realised.
i told her wrongly!
she shld have taken bus from the opposite side!
but i kept insisting this was the correct side!
oh no.
if she took from the other side she would have reached alrdy cos that side alot of buses came.
oh well.
at lest she dint take 608 from the wrong side and get lost
fortunately.
and she even ask me again if i wads sure it was this side.
haha
but yay i made a big effort to socialise!
yay one step closer to being sociable.
aint that cool or what.
and to everyone who missed the absence of my blog.
IM BACK!
