Doing once, Isn't nice...

As my header says, it will be my post content for today.

You know the silver bell placed at reception desks or our school canteen stalls? You tap the top of the bell to call for a person or so. So anyway, my sister's office reception desk has a bell like that. Before I begin, I have to explain that my sister is a social bomb. An extremely jovial and fun person, she could probably turn Enci's birthday party into the most fun birthday party you could experience. She was the one who made everyone who came for my 16th birthday celebration, sing my birthday song OUT OF TUNE. It sounded almost as horrid as a scream from a banshee. She's the type that can laugh her heart out in the middle of her company's meeting. She's the reactive metal caesium. To her, I'm the nonreactive metal, silver... So if you thought I was someone very brash, then you have yet to meet my sister.

So anyway, back to the point about the silver bell, she went up to the reception desk, and unintentionally kept repetitively ringing the bell. Then the receptionist came up to her and told her that ringing ONCE is enough. But my sister, being the type of person she is, didn't really quite understand how someone could only ring it once. So she told the receptionist, "But ring once like not shuang..." -She means that ringing once isn't satisfying enough.

I swear when she told me this story I was completely dumbfounded. Even though I know my sister is like that, I couldn't believe she'd do something like that. I can totally relate to that though, I'd do the same with the school's canteen store bell... But I was afraid of the possibility that the auntie would run out and scold me, then not want to sell me her food. So because I have good social etiquette, and of course so that I can fill up my tummy, I ring once. Sigh...

Other things like traffic lights. I just enjoy pressing and pressing, thinking that it would speed things up, but of course I know it doesn't. I JUST WANT TO DO IT OKAY?!

Another thing is also Denise. Can't be satisfied with just hitting Denise once. Gotta keep hitting her. Same goes for Sharmila or Adeline.
