Eggs, Shorts and Boyfriends who should have know better
I heard a piece of good news just now. My dad (and I've heard from TV news just now) said that eggs will be arriving in Singapore in two days' time. How cool is that? I miss my source of protein.
I was at Orchard Road in the afternoon and saw this girl in this pair of impossibly short shorts (almost on the brink of being a bikini bottom). Obviously she is aware of the eyes on her shorts (mine were on her super-short shorts, not sure about the guys out there) and felt rather uncomfortable. This guy beside her, assumably her boyfriend (one would cannot be sure for now)with a pair of Oakley/ Killer Loop shades, beige berms and orange button shirt, had this arrogant air about him when it came to her and when they were on the up-escalator, the girl would be one step higher and he would be one step lower behind her to block the wonderous (debatable) view of her booty from the rest of the evil world standing behind her on the escalator. Cor... come on. COME ON. This guy friend with me was saying, "She might as well don't wear." Well, I think she's attracting all the wrong attention, and that guy beside her was being so (for the lack of a better word).... You fill in the blank. I mean, seriously.
Let's be hypothetical here. If that girl is his girlfriend and she is wearing that pair of SHORTS in Orchard Road (a place with plenty of escalotors around), she will know how that SHORTS is attracting attention. Let's be frank now, shall we? You wouldn't be wearing it if you didn't want that kind of attention. Seriously, my issue is, why does the guy have to stand behind the girl on the escalator? The intention was plain to see, and to me, it's dumb. You need a certain amount of confidence and flamboyance to carry off the SHORTS and if your girl can't and you need to be protective around her like that, it's stupid. I know I can express this in something more intelligent than 'stupid' or 'dumb', but I can't seem to manage it now. This relationship is going down, I bet.
