Pet Peeves

1) When people sneeze or cough behind me on the bus and in the train, most esp when i just wash my hair. just imagine the germs flying to and sticking onto my clean hair!!

2) When my poop causes an impact high enough to splash my 'there' parts.. urghs! there's almost an art to doing this correctly, just gentle gentle squeeze softer and try to slide it in like an chinese olympic diver.. but difficult to execute correctly sometimes...

3) Calling people up to make a social appointment.. Think it's a conditioning since school days when i was so keen to chiong, and always jio frens. but since most frens were attached, they usually didnt want to go. hence, i started to get a abberation to initiate anything.

4) People who break their dates at last minute, forcing me to suddenly have that free time to have nothing to do or is too late to do anything.

5) Shrill voices, eg. my mum.. most times, i can tolerate it. but if it's too long and i'm tired, i get annoyed and get a headache..

6) People with hearing problem, cos i just dont like to repeat myself.

7) MO or BO ie. mouth or body odour. Think my nose is extremely sensitve, sometimes i can smell those people whom frens beside me cannot smell.

8) Stingy or calculative people.

9) Wishy-washiness. am forced to be guilty of that sometimes, cos when trying to be nice instead of pushy, i let others decide, hum-and-haw for the longest time.. when i couldnt stand it, i'll just cut in and make decision for them.. Most times, i pretty get my way.. hee! Sometimes, just to come across as being diplomat, i'll start by saying "why dont we.. " so that any decision made will seem made by all of us, rather than me who has suggested and veto it alone..

People who also beat around the bush and doesnt get to the main point. i get impatient when i know what they are going to talk about, i finish the sentence for them..

Also people who asks me to do something but never tell me exactly what, then having to resort to 2nd guesses..

10) Kids behaving badly, are noisy and spoilt... those that sit on supermarket floors to cry when they dont get their way, eat or swing around the poles in trains.. worse are when the parents dont know how to teach them.. some have the audacity to spoil them by saying things like "dont'cry dont cry, later mummy buy sweets/toys for you, okay??"

Also bad are the parents who let their kids stand on the seats in buses or trains, even on rainy days.. once witnessed such a thing on rainy day, the mother didnt care that the kid's shoes were wet!!

Cant resist adding 1 more to my top 10..

11) 'Stone lions' who stand inside or outside train doors, refuse to move when many people want to come in or get out, then have the silliness to complain and make the 'tsk tsk' noises when said people push their way in/out..
