really a lot a lot a lot of patience and empathy are required in the people business. generally i think im high on the patient side? but there are 3 kinds of people that i have a short fuse for - 1) immature, 2) irresponsible and 3) people who waste others' time. and i see these traits in many millennials nowadays.

on top of that, i cannot stand people (especially girls!) who

  • cuss (in every single FREAKING sentence) hahahah im doing that too doesnt it sound annoying 
  • dont respect themselves and their bodies

i've had younger girls come and tell me that flirting with guys is okay because they treat the guys like bro. so it's okay to "lead them on" because "they will never fall for them". no pls. you bro them doesnt mean they feel the same way towards you. pls respect yourselves. girls should have the 矜持(jin chi), not sure how to translate it accurately into english. dignity?

and the most jaw-dropping line i heard tonight: "i'm here for a fun time, not a long time." :O their nonchalant attitude really gets on my nerve.

perhaps it's just a millennial thing i feel. people who are rude to seniors, who are not interested in helping others but volunteer anyway (for what? friends? fun?), people who come to volunteer but end up spending their time complaining, talking about others and stirring politics. i was pretty sure i wasnt brought up this way; my parents didnt teach me to live life this way, neither did my teachers, nor my friends. how did the current generation turn out otherwise? its sad and infuriating when you see youngsters these days snapping at people older than them and brush it off as "that's how i talk" and "if you dont like it, dont talk to me". NO. please respect yourselves and others. be humble.

  2. Hello Bell! It's me.

    Remember our focal point is to serve in the community. Even being a volunteer, we are served well with much supports from other volunteers who came early to set up and did preparations before us. Maybe certain attitude or behavior of others might put you off but i believe that it won't stop you from giving hope and let other youths volunteering to be nurtured positively as they get to know you better?
