I hate that my first proper post for 2015
is gonna be so negative, but alas, since I promised to stop posting on FB to
someone very dear to me, less it be misunderstood by people who are so freaking
sensitive and childish, I need to turn somewhere to express my frustrations on
this matter. So hear me out.
Many times people just don’t get it. And
unfortunately the society condones and exacerbate this too . Your profession or
occupation doesn’t make you special or important; it only tells people that you
are (book) smart. It is a person’s character and behaviors that define a
person. So what if you are a doctor? A manager? Or a pharmacist? It only tells
people that you can study or had the opportunity to study. Why do people think
that they are great just because they work in a big company or is a
professional like accountants or lawyers? It is just a job that you happen to
be qualified for. It says absolutely NOTHING about you as a person. GOD/Allah/Buddha
doesn’t care if you are a manager in a big company or a dentist. CEOs, lawyers
and accountants, like everyone else, get sick and/or get into accidents too. And
in my books, those who think they are great just because of their occupation/post
don’t even qualify as ‘decent’. I pity them for the rude shock they suffer when
they realized that the world doesn’t give a shit about the position stated on
their name cards.
For someone who has yet to start work but
already think that she is so bloody great just because she graduated from a
‘supposedly’ prestigious university (which in real fact not even listed in any
top 100 Universities’ lists) and a ‘respectable’ course (aka pharmacy), she has
much more to learn. She has yet to work a day as a pharmacist-in-training, much
less earn her pharmacist license, but already she thinks she is above everyone
and deserved to be treated as VIP. Pharmacists are a dime a dozen in this
country, just like doctors. Maybe at home she is pampered as she is the
youngest and only daughter. Maybe all her family and relatives give in to her
every time. Maybe she is treated as a princess at home. But hello ‘Princess’, life
is a bitch and just wait for this dog-eat-dog world to get a taste of you. Overly-sensitive,
overly-protected and unbelievably childish -- a lethal combination for a major
rude awakening in the future! I for one am looking forward to the day her
sheltered life is shattered and she realized the painful truth that only her
family thinks she is ‘special’ in any way. Because frankly, no one else gives a
damn. She could be the Queen of England or earn billions for all I care, but if
she thinks that she is greater than the rest of us, then she is no friend, much
less a relative of mine.
It is just laughable how small and pathetic
their world is. Just because her prick of a brother graduated from a SG
university (hey, me too), is working in a MNC (hey, I did too), earns SG
dollars (hey, I earn Euro!) and seems to know lots (hey, can he beat a PhD? Or
someone who had lived in 4 countries and travel/see so much more?), whatever he
says is gospel to her. That fella only comes home a few times a year, doesn’t
give any money to their parents, doesn’t take care of the elders in the family,
doesn’t help in any way except to stir up chaos, disputes and bitterness wherever
he goes. He might be working for some big company in SG (which seems to carry a
lot of weight in this little town), in my eyes he is nothing but a
troublemaking egoistic jerk. As for her, I have never seen such a naïve and immature
person in my life! But again, I don’t mix much cos I wanted to avoid such dumb
bitches in the first place. Can’t wait till she sees what this ruthless brutal
world is going to do to her. It is gonna swallow her whole and spit her out
without a second glance. Just hope that she has the inner strength, which I
highly doubt she possesses, to put herself back together again. The same goes with
that ass of a brother of hers.
And I will say one last thing: Her
brother’s arrogance and her naivety shall be their downfall one day. It is just
the eventuality of it happening, as I do not doubt its possibility. When it
does, I will be there laughing and cheering when they are pulled off their high
horses and fall flat on their faces. I shall relish the day and will most
definitely rub it in when that happens. I really hope that we do NOT become
relatives. I absolutely do not want to be associated with such people much less
be relatives with them.
I regretted treating her as my little sis
and henceforth she is nothing to me. Had not felt so much rage and anger for a
very long time. It is bad for my health. Thus, this shall be the last ranting I
am gonna make cos these are taking up way too much of my precious time. Like I
always say, “Life is too short, ignore all morons”.
End note:
What I’ve written might seem harsh and
overly critical, but I stand by every single word. Will I regret what I’ve just
written? Maybe, in the far far far future, but the emotions and feelings I felt
right now have to be vented. Will things turn out okay in the end? I don’t know
but I learned one thing all these year, ‘never say never’. Will things be back
to what it used to be? DEFINTELY NO. That I can say for sure. I will keep my
distance from this family from now onwards. As I have nothing but contempt, loathing
and pity for this family, I do not foresee being chummy with anyone of them,
now or in the future.
