Today is one of those freezing-my-butt-off-cold-days. I’m not kidding it’s really, really cold. I’m wearing like, 3 layers of clothing? Traveling to Macau tomorrow, and then Japan soon. (On the 22nd, I think.) Yesterday was NOT a good day. Here’s what happened:
Me, my mum and my dad are on the car, going to a shopping center to watch a midnight movie. (We brought the tickets about 4 hours earlier.) We were driving along the road pretty smoothly when we came to a point where there was a red light. We stopped and waited for the light to change. It didn’t for about a good 10 minutes. At first I thought it was an error with the lights and that they’ll send a traffic police to guide the traffic. But then I noticed the police was already there. It then occurred to me that some important figure was arriving and that we had to clear the road for them. I’m okay with that, but what frustrates me is that they started clearing the road a good 10 minutes before the car was even in sight. What if there was an ambulance and it can’t do anything because it’s stuck at the back of the queue of cars and they are all jam-packed together. Imagine that. A human life is at stake. Even if the ambulance is in front, do you think they’ll let it pass just because a commoner’s life is at stake rather than there own precious, important lives? Sure, there lives are important as well because they are country leaders and are important to the society. But in which way are we less important then them. A child to a mother, a husband to a wife, a brother to a sister. Aren’t these figures any less important as they are to each other, then to them?
