Don't Touch What's Not Yours!

You know how someone can be very particular bout some things? For example, books must be arranged alphabetically; clothes sorted by type and colour; do not bend the books while reading such that it'll leave creases on them? Well, I'm that type of person. And also, I don't like it when people touch my things without my permission. As well as being the first one to use my things instead of me. And that happened today! And it got me really pissed.

Andrew left to have a meeting with the Reverend at the Anglican Chaplaincy down Princes Road today and I was left to entertain Tina (she was here for Chinese Society meeting and soon the others have arrived). So, I decided to bring my newly received copy of February 2009 Elle magazine to Andrew's room while she was on the phone. However, she was done by the time I got back to Andrew's room so we talked. Then this girl in the Chinese Society's Committee came. There weren't enough seats in Andrew's room so I let her sit on the chair, which is next to Andrew's computer table (which is also where I left my crisp new Elle Magazine). And guess what? Soon after she got on the seat, she took my magazine and was the first to read it! I mean, it's mine; so technically, I'm supposed to be the first to use (read) it! But I decided let it go for a bit. But then, she held my crisp new magazine in such a manner that it left a lot of crease/ dented marks on my magazine! And I hated it so much when I saw that but I couldn't exactly go and tell her off since there were others in the room! God, at that moment, I felt like screaming at her! I know it's really petty of me but it's just how I am bout these kindda things. I mean, it wasn't even her magazine. And she didn't even ask for my permission before reading it like it belonged to her!
