amazing.
happened today while i was working.
some lady came up to me, and gave me a TWO DOLLAR TIP!!!
yes. someone actually thought i was being a capable waitress and decided to tip me!!!
i mean. its about time! haha.
but no. really... when it happened..
i was genuinely surprised.. but extremely flattered.
to think that someone actually took notice of the work you'd been doing to tip you..
the most surprising thing of it all was that i had barely done anything for the woman.
at most, i had given her some tea... and soup.
but.. really? thats what we do immediately for anyone that comes in.
hardly a special act worthy of being tipped two dollars.
to be honest. when i had first given the lady the soup.
she had kind of looked at me in a scary way. and actually said no to one of the two soups i had been carrying..
so damn. i must've been something right.
on a slightly completely different note.
today, as i was catching the half past 8 bus back home from work, sitting in my usual fetal position, ipod plugged into my ears and all,
i realised, just how much i missed being a passenger.
there's just so many little details you miss, when you're too busy driving,
and its those little details, from the details of houses, to the way trees seem to dance past, that i miss so much.
it also reminded me again why i love riding the bus.
not only are the windows large and clear so you can see everything around you, its also almost kind of like a rollercoaster ride.
you know, from the way it seems to grumble as it changes gears, to the way it rocks up and down along the roads
the way it moves and sounds, feels just like one.
especially if like me, your bus tends to take the small streets, in which the twists and turns are endlessly fun.
and sometimes.. in it all. its just nice to take the bus by yourself.
theres just something about being able to sit comfortably somewhere and watch as the world flies past to good music,
as you allow yourself to dwell in thoughts and contemplate.
its the little things.
i think i had a pretty productive day today.
