if death is really the only solution...

was heading home with JY from Raffles MRT station after work yesterday when we heard announcements that our train journey might be delayed by 60 mins due to "track faults". JY remarked in a joking manner that maybe "someone had jumped onto the tracks again"... when we were finally at Tanah Merah station, we realised her remarks turned out to be TRUE.JY called up her reporter friend asking if she knew what happened, but ended up giving the scoop to the reporter who had no idea. Ms Reporter was truly professional and quick enough to do a phone recorded interview right away! there were a few policemen at the scene and coincidentally one of them was my friend, A. i asked A if someone had commited suicide and his reply was: "you said it, i didn't" heh...

i hope everyone will cherish their lives. but if one REALLY thinks that death is the only solution to their problems then please do it in a way which will not cause danger/inconveniences to the rest. sorry if i sound morbid/heartless here but i could have imagined that the train driver applied E-brake in an attempt to stop the accident - this might have killed an innocent old man who was standing in the train if he had lost his balance and fell. also imagine the kind of traumatic experience the train driver and the rest of the passengers who were waiting at the platform had to go through by witnessing the accident.

难听点说: "要死自己死"
