i went to causeway point for dinner today and since i am not-so-rich, i chose to eat at the foodcourt.
i shared the table and sat opposite a couple with a toddling child and another auntie.
these ppl were talking about the new car they bought.. etc etc and by the looks of it, they seem to be quite well-to-do.. judging by their clothes they wore.
however, what turned me off the MOST, is that the toddler was flicking the rice in her bowl around with one side of her chopsticks and with her spoon.
the parents tried to take the bowl away and were rewarded with an ear piercing scream.
so they let her have her way.
when i was a small girl, my mom taught me table manners.
"NO PLAYING WITH YOUR FOOD."
"can u imagine what it is like for those poor children in war-torn countries without food?"
as i was watching that girl stuffing rice into her hair, i was thinking to myself, "my dogs behave much better than u do."
pls don't say that my expectations of children are high... it's this country's expectations of children that has lowered throughout the years.
most kids get to have their way nowadays.
and when i have my own children, i just know, they aint gonna like me alot. coz i will not allow them to do things such as
1. scream in public
2. play with food
3. bark or meow at DOGS... (wats the rationale behind this? *rolls eyes*)
4. run in foodcourts, restaurants, etc etc
which reminds me, when i was holding the tray with my porridge on it and walking back to my table (the foodcourt was very crowded), a boy
dashed out from the crowd and his head knocked into my tray.
luckily, i am nimble and quick and i did not spill the porridge.
actually, i kinda regret not pouring it down that pea-brain's neck.
i stood for 1min, staring down at the stupid boy. n he looked back, grinning.... but his grin soon faded when his eyes met mine.
many people were lookin at me, as if waiting for me to lash out at him. but i didnt.
coz im nice.
but my plea to all of you reading this,
if u want to have kids,
PLEASE EDUCATE THEM, YA?
how can kids behave worse than MY DOGS??????
sheesh...
on a lighter note, a beagle is up for adoption.
6mths old male.
if u live in singapore and have experience in handling dogs and have read up about beagles, pls drop me an email: inoriz@gmail.com
