Things that ticks (us) off!

I was just reminded how I had saw one of my colleague got super irritated just because someone was playing with that stressball at the back office by throwing them around and accidentally hitted her twice. I thought the reaction was to big for such a small thing. One could easily laugh it off. I personally would… laugh it off.

What reminded me was this:

I had pre-planned to go out with X after work. With excitement and joy after I got knocked off from work, I tried to rush to meet X. Just when I reached, X was talking to someone else whom is planning to ask him/her out to “study”. And X said to the person on the phone, “I don’t know. Anything.” subsquently pass the phone to me expecting me to say “oh! I’m not studying anymore, but I can go also (and be a statue?!)” but of cos I said, “go on ahead then, I’ll just stay home”.

How could one say “anything” to another person, knowing that he/she has already had a plan to meet up with somebody else? And that got me up and burning. Worst when X try to claim that he/she is right in the situation, that saying “anything” doesnt means “yes” (ok fine! then it means lazy. lazy to reject the friend) and that I was acting pitiful.

I think thru and tot maybe I was “小题大做” and that I got angry too easily. But it’s not the case. How could I just laugh it off? It’s not even a laughing matter. What’s with the rushing then? All but waste. I should have just take my time and cannot be bothered just like the person did.

Still pissed after spending 30mins typing and editing this. ARGHHhhhh!!
