Talk abt awkward situations man. My story goes like this, i go to the toilet during lecture break and i came across 2 girls which will be related to this story of mine. They were both wearing black class jerseys. Thinking nth much abt it, i went back for lecture which ended at 1130. As i was queuing to board 184, i noticed the same 2 girls walking forward to board the same bus. Not much of a coincidence imo cos most lectures would end arnd the same time. Made my way to the back of the long bus and got a seat. They eventually made their way up onto the bus and ended up sitting next to where i was because the front seats were all taken up. I 'lol-ed' to myself. Nt a very eventful ride. As the bus pulled up to the clementi mrt bus stop, the girl directly beside me randomly showed her fren her ez link card. I barely caught a glimpse of the pic on it b4 the card was flipped out of my sight, 4 guys whose posing silhouettes vaguely resembled the korean male leads of boys over flowers. "is that boys over flowers?" i thought to myself. I continued to glance at the card for a split second, wanting to verify my guess. It seems damn long but these occurred in a 10 second or so timeframe. In that split second which I was looking at the card, the girl holding the card, sarah (because the back of her jersery was labelled sarah), turned over and presumably saw me looking at the card afterwhich she quickly turned back. that was awkward moment number 1.

walking in direction of the mrt gantry, the station screen stated that the pasir ris-bound train was arriving in 1 min, so i increased my pace past the gantry and up onto the platform. unfortunately, the train doors were abt to close and i certainly did not want to risk being clamped by the door. the next train which terminates at aljunied came in a cpl of mins. i stepped up to the yellow demarcation and waited for the train to stop. 2 ppl came to stand behind me and i looked to see who it was instinctively. wtf, it was sarah and wen (the other girl). i could've sworn that i heard them recognising me from the bus and 2 words 'diu lian' (throw face) *awkward awkward* stepped into the empty carriage and randomly took a seat. They took a seat almost opposite of me. I felt damn awkward for some reason and the train ride was gonna be long. how am i supposed to keep a straight gaze if they were opposite me! luckily, i had brought my psp , so i took it out and focused my attention on it. djmax ftw! Reached aljunied and they dont seem to have reached their intended destination either. We ended up in the same carriage. they got a seat and i chose to stand, leaning against the pane of glass by the reserved seat. it still felt damn awkward. i tried to ignore them. i had thought of saying 'hello, what a coincidence' but that would've just made the situation even more awkward, wouldnt it? i just couldnt pluck up the courage to do that. haha. finally, the train was approaching the pasir ris station and it was only sarah left. i exited the station from the left, where white sands is, she exited from the right, where epps is. walking twds the queue for 359, i thought to myself 'it will be damn amusingly weird if that sarah appear in the bus queue i was heading for'. fortunately, she wasnt there, and the day proceeded as usual.

i reckon that this entire scenario started becoming awkward when sarah caught me looking at her card which she showed to wen. why it feels awkward to me also, i have no idea. lol. what are the odds of this happening again, considering that we all stay in the east. Maybe i'll go up and say ' hey, i rmb u. u're the girl whose ezlink card has a different picture from others.' hahaha. that would be interesting.
