June 23: Many events today :) Good day!
Appointment- all great!
On my way there, a young woman on a bike was almost hit by a car. They both had green light, so they both turned.
I find this system simply imbecile.
Every time I cross and I see cars waiting, I hurry.
Who on earth came up with this idiotic rule?
The driver didn't even ask if the woman was ok.
I asked her and I gave her a hug.
She thanked me and she was quite touched.
Got a bunch of nice things from Forever 21, chocolate and cookies from McGill.
The best moment was to discover the... pretzels!
I got the cinnamon and the salted.
Fabulous treat!
I haven't written anything here in a while.
Tomorrow I go to the St Jean parade to take some photos.
I hope that it won't be too hot (and humid) or too rainy, like last year.
On the bus, there was this fat, white Quebecer with two kids. One was in a stroller and he began crying.
The idiot was simply ignoring him, chatting on the phone and later on... texting!
The passengers were obviously irritated and annoyed by her behaviour.
At a certain point, the little boy was almost choking. He kept saying "Maman, maman"... Yup, what a great mother he has!
I felt like telling her to talk to him,but I remembered that in this "civilized" society, we are not supposed to criticise or "lecture" anyone on how they raise their children.
To my surprise, a young woman told her something like "take him in your arms".
I also jumped in, to support the brave woman who was sitting across from the scene, adding that she should communicate with the boy.
The imbecile ignored us.
I was at the back of the bus.
I heard the imbecile chatting with her oldest son and, based on her diction/word articulation, she didn't sound very intelligent.
Judging by her general appearance, she is definitely a dropout, with no profession, living on social welfare and spending money on tattoos.
I pity the two boys.
I bet she is a single "mother", a "courageous" teenager who got pregnant and kept the baby.
After getting off the bus, I congratulated the young woman for taking a stance.
There was another woman who joined the conversation.
We briefly touched the topic of our society not allowing people to intervene as it's not considered "appropriate" ; we are the "bad guys" for pointing out the issues.
I got home and I took a shower to relax.
It is almost 11 pm now and I keep thinking about that poor little boy.
Imagine how she behaves with him when she is not in public.
Imagine his life in that house.
