i'm speechless

was at boon lay mrt station control on fri with cl... we were waiting for her friend..

there was an old lady sitting on the parapet*, beside us. we didn't pay attention to her until when she asked cl for the time.

the first thought that came across my mind was that she must be waiting for her family/friend.

true enough, she was there waiting..

but she was waiting so that she can travel by MRT at the senior citizen concession rate.

i'm speechless then...

The concession rate starts at 7pm, it was only 6.05pm then and she seemed to have been sitting there for some time already...

* dunno wat's that thing she's sitting on called..
