Confessions of an Idllyic Mind

Haidiho ..

Ok was having lunch at the library cafe just now. Loner as I am, i sat alone with my plate of chicken pizza with a huge order of salad. With no one to talk to or object to interact with, i begin noticing the people around me. And strangely, it is facinating really.

First group of people observed:
There was a group of students comprising of 90% asians and 10% aussies/foreigners. I know am mean to say this but those group of asians brings other asians everywhere to shame. What is with trying to be some other race/ethnic group/type that you are so obviously not? I call these people Wannabes. There were 2 girls in that grp of asians. One had her hair dyed so blond but streaks of black is appearing fom the top. she must have fried some of her brain cells with the way she gotta bleach her hair to get that blond. Another one of the girl had so much eye liner on that if i diluted it with water, i could have written 4 scrolls of chinese caligraphy with it. And the weird thing is, the eye liner wasnt on the upper lid but it was on the lower lid. Hmmm ... Punk chink? Chinky punky? China punk? The group of guys were desperately trying to make their foreign friends laugh. The jokes were so lame. Add that with bad grammar and fake aussie accent. It would have been like this..(not actual scenario but i made it up) "Hey mate! Guess this man. Freaking funny dude! Why r did the chicken cross the road man?! Dude ! Dude! To get to the other side la!!! MUA HA HA HA .. Farney right right right? Dude mate funny mate!" The 2 aussies gave a sympathetic laugh and returned to talking to each other. The rowdy bunch of asians continued talking in fake accents and making a fool of themselves in the cafe. The scene looked like an olden day chinese imperial court. The court jesters - the rowdy bunch of asians, trying to apease the emperor. Except that in this context, the emporer is aussie. At this point I'm very ashamed that i'm chinese.

Second group of people observed:
Health nuts i should call them. These are the group of people, usually comprising of aussie girls sitting together, talking bout nonsense, and eatting almost nothing. They live on Coke and gossip i think. Oh one girl was eatting. And i saw what she bought from the counter. It was a whole grain sandwich with grated cheddar cheese, no butter, tomatoes, grated carrots, pineapple, beetroot, a sprinkle of salt, a little pepper, and a lot of mustard. Ok im not condemning ppl for eatting healthy but WTF? Does it even taste gd? When i pick up the courage to try it i'll make a post on it.

There were others but these were the most interesting. Well I'm sure those people in those grps are happy somehow. Sorry if i offended anyone that belongs to the 2 categories of people mentioned above. I was a mean mean girl today. BAd amanda Bad amanda. In conclusion, Anything beats being an asian girl, sitting alone, looking around for company and stuffing her face with pizza and salad. SIGHS.

*The pizza sucked*
