People watch 2
Well for my second people watch i would like to write about this guy whom i saw in clementi mrt station. As usual i went to the extreme end of the platform and wait there for the train. Then this guy came to the place where i was standing and he was walking around. He did seemed to be having a conversation with someone. well since wireless technology has advanced so much i really thought he was using a bluetooth earpiece. He as also laughing real loud from time to time. Then after some time i realised something was wrong. Real wrong. When this guy turned there was no earpiece in his ear!!! instead he poked his finger into his ear and was talking to someone through his pinky!!! At that point i was teribly shocked. I started to stare at him looking for signs to confirm that his was normal. At firstĀ i thought that it was some kind of a joke, like maybe he was mocking somone, but later on, his coversations turned violent. He suddenly put his hands on his head bent forward a little and shouted ‘ leave me alone’. At thi point i was petrified. I had two fears coming into my mind. The first is that i feared that he might jump into the tracks and the second i feared that he might push someone, like maybe me into the tracks. Throught the journey he was talking to hisĀ imaginary friend and laughing hysterically. Of course people did stare at him, but later on i think they understood that he was mentally unstable.

This second one is more like a 50 word story than a people-watch assignment. (Did you do it the morning it was due?)
