She danced away just like a child

Ants are the tiny thing with 6 legs which bite you like sh*t. Today when I finished showering there were so many ants crawling around my bathroom, no idea why. So I sprayed them continuously with pine-o-clean, no it's not an insect repellent. And yes they died.

I got ready and headed out to the bus bay, I called Cathy to make sure she left the house. Turns out we missed the bus and we both headed out just before it came. Silly us. So we got my dad to give us a lift instead and we headed for McDonald's breakfast, today was the first time I ate a Sausage & Egg Muffin. AHAHHA, there was a piece of bacon in it, I think it's fate I should stick to the Bacon & Egg Muffin.

We went to Angus & Robertson to buy textbooks. I got a Biology one and Cathy got a Chemistry one, they shall bring us to success. I also bought Alexandra Adornetto's 2nd book to the Strangest Adventures series. It's called "The Lampo Circus". I absolutely love her books. If you liked "A series of unfortunate events", you will love these books.

Cathy & I headed to the library where we had a competition of who writes more notes, and it sounds crazy, but within a total of almost 5 hours (with constant breaks) we wrote relatively 14 - 15 pages of notes. When the library started to close, we left and headed to the food court to eat. I tried KFC'S popcorn chicken melts, IT'S SO NICE. Infact it tastes like a kebab. It was cut and presented really shit though.

Then we got Waffle cones and decided to head for the bus, the bus comes within another hour. So we walked around then decided to sit and read aloud our notes, because some things in Chemistry may also be related to Biology. Then all these ants came attacking Cathy & I, they're annoying little sh*ts. It seems like they've got to bite you because their food is so scarce, like there's not enough crumbs on the floor for them or something.

Then our bus finally came, the bus driver was a d*ckhead to Cathy. So Cathy decided not to say thank you when she gets off the bus, when she got off she looked so snobby it was funny. Then when I headed off the bus I said "thank you", but he didn't say anything. Rude. I hate rude bus drivers, I like enthusiastic bus drivers whom question if you've got a bus pass (like they'd rather you not to pay), or the bus drivers who say thank you before you get to. That bus driver had a PMS day or something.

As I was walking home, my parents just headed out of the house and insisted I go with them to Bunnings Warehouse. So I took Justin to the playground in Bunnings, then later we headed home.

Oh and I got sick from Cathy Nguyen who never covers her mouth when she coughs, disgusting sight to see. It's like shes going to vomit her tongue out.

Today I had work, I was in the order-taking booth for approximately 8 hours. You know... the drive-thru thing. Now, working at McDonald's you're not very considerate to customers mainly because customers are bitchy, annoying, too demanding, impatient and the list goes on. Unless of course, they're nice friendly customers. However today, I encountered customers in drive-thru whom made me have a stir of mixed emotions.

Today in drive-thru there was this car which was looking at the menu. I greeted them nicely with a "Hi how are you today?" and there was no reply, so I assumed they didn't hear me. So I said "Hi are you guys alright?". Still no reply. The presenter (Belinda) at the last window also had the headset on, she was as puzzled as me as to why there was no reply. So she spoke into the headset saying "Hi what can I get you?", We had a laugh about it because we both got snobbed. Then Kate, whom was helping Belinda got impatient and yelled in the headset "HELLO?!?!?!" The car drove down to the first window and Belinda & Kate went back to the front.

Turns out the customers were mute (voiceless), and they handed me a sheet with what they wanted in their meal. I assumed they sat there writing what they wanted to make things much easier for me. I felt so bad, so bad it wasn't bad enough. They spoke to me in sign language, which I couldn't understand. He showed me his VIP, I felt so confused, I didn't know what he wanted with it. So I put in an Apple Pie.

I handed him the sheet back with the price of the meal, I knew I got something wrong and I felt like a fool. He paid me and drove through. Moments later Belinda told me I got the order wrong. Kate told me she felt so bad. I still do feel bad.

After encountering this situation, I've realised how much I've avoided my life-living "Treat others how you want to be treated" quote which I solemnly agree with. They should've slapped me, or not pay for the meal. I still feel bad, and I can't describe how sorry I am. But if they ever read this, I'm sorry...

But people are people, whether you're deaf, blind, mute, deformed or anything you still deserve the respect anyone else has. Your presence in this world is just as precious as mine, or anyone else's.
