Lol, just a random post on something I witnessed on the train.

I bet most of you look down on special people like Charlie Gordon in Flowers for Algernon or Doodle in Scarlet Ibis. In short, most look down on these people who are autistic and mentally-challenged, like how I used to look at them.

This is because I was on the MRT and there were two teens from APSN ( Association for People with Special Needs ). There was a pair of ladies who alighted at Eunos MRT. Then I walked into the MRT behind a pregnant woman with a trolley and her husband. The ladies left a pair of seats and it was only common sense to let the pregnant lady sit. But obviously some did not care.

As one of the boys sat down and gestured for his friend to join him. However, the boy was obviously oblivious to the fact that a pregnant lady wanted to sit on the seat badly. However, his friend, who remained standing, told his friends to rise and allow the pregnant lady to sit. This autistic child, despite his deformity and lack of intelligence, have much EQ in him as he have put others in front of him which was indeed noble as many normal people will not even bother about it. This took place like 1 or 2 days ago.

On the bus home today, a sporty boy wanted to alight from the bus. He was sporty reason being the fact that he had a basketball in his arms, implying that he was a sportsman. However, the boy caused the whole bus to wait just for him as he dropped his basketball, which rolled off the bus before him and stuck under the bus. He obviously knew that he was causing the whole bus to wait for him but he continued to use his legs to kick it out when he could have simply crouched down and scoop the ball up. I think that his actions were inconsiderate compared to the autistic boy.

Lol, planning a Naruto Marathon. Byezzz~~
