deed of the day

i realize every now and then, this old lady would come into Blitzone and walk around here and there. The first time i saw her i made a joke in my silly mind saying "huh?? old lady also play online games.?" LOL

later on, i discovered to my dismay that she was actually digging through the trashcan, looking for
aluminium cans!! it was utterly disgusting and unhygienic to do so. due to the intensity of my game of CS, i forgotten about it later on

later that night suddenly i remembered about that old lady. i actually took time to think how can i give her a hand. give her more cans? give her money? hmm.. suddenly i remembered myself asking my maid to keep the old
aluminium cans for recycling a few months back during Chinese New Year. i wonder if she did it. hmmmm... but to be honest, i thought one step ahead- how the hell am i gonna bring those stupid aluminium cans to a cyber cafe?? put it in my bag and wait for her arrival?? people would think i'm psycho and it would be pretty much embarrassing.

but today, as i was walking out from Blitzone to buy lotus pau for kevin, i saw her walking towards Blitzone. after getting back to the cyber cafe with no pau, i decided to buy a drink to quench my thirst. i was wondering where did she go. the moment i finished my drink, i saw that she had just left the cyber cafe. i decided to ignore my "sei you min" attitude and walked out to give her my empty can.

as i got out, the word "what in the world??" played in my head. she was frantically searching through the garbage bin in front of the premise. i quickly handed her my empty can. she gave me a "wahh...." followed by a big bright smile. and i went back inside, feeling much better

although it was just ONE empty can, i played my part in helping someone to ease their burden. besides, i also contribute to nature! recycle leh... HEHE
