sidetrack. mini weird episode.
im such a skeptic these days. thanks to marketing, i perceive all strangers who approach me with a hidden/obvious agenda.
i was on my way home when i was approached by this guy at boon lay mrt station. i waved my hand to express disinterest before he even spoke.. which is what i always do to strangers armed with donation booklets. i abhor commission related donation activities.
plus, my feet were already 2 steps on the stairs.
so i guess he was stuck in a situation whereby, "should i continue?"
and he decided to carry on.
he: just came from school right? (and trying to build rapport, i guess, by saying along the line he just reached the bus interchange from school too)
me: yah?
he: oh, so are you a student?
me: yah? (duh?..)
i cant remember how he ended the short convo. i left, utterly puzzled.
strange thing is, he wasn't holding any file/folder/paper/pen/donation booklet! (well, at least he appeared like he is empty handed).
stranger thing is, i still have no clue of what was he trying to drive at!
strange people.
