Because many people were dismissed, the bus was overloaded, tightly pack like sardines. I was rather annoyed because it seemed like there were many seats at the back of the bus. However, when i took a close look, it turn out that there was an old man who was taking up many of the seats at the back by stretching out and resting his leg on the chairs, indifferent to the people who were staring at him. I felt very unhappy and disturbed by his inconsiderate actions. I wished I had the courage to walk over and scold him for his inconsiderate behavior, but I was just too timid. I suddenly feel a sense of regret for not asking him to be more gracious. I feel that it is because of bystanders like me, who do not speak up, that cause inconsiderate people to continue their acts. How I wish time could be turned back and I could stop his actions. You can never guess what else he did which made me cringe in disgust! He actually stuck two fingers up his nostrils and started digging it in a violent and disgusting manner. The worst has yet to come! He even rubbed his dirty fingers against the glass window after digging his nose. This made me feel so dirty, after leaning on the glass windows to sleep on several occasions!
When the bus arrived at the stop where he needed to get off, he pressed bus stopping button incessantly, as if the bus driver could not hear the alarm sent by the button. He pushed and shoved his way through the crowd and shouted in a rude manner. He shouted for the people to "siam" in other words move away, but in a very rude tone. I was utterly shocked and angered by his actions on the bus and totally loss my appetite. I really hope that Singapore will not come to a day were people are all ungracious in public transport. What would foreigners think of Singapore? Nothing more than just and inconsiderate and ungracious country.
