i'm angry

joined so many tournaments, and how often do you have one that starts on time?
who should you blame?
the organiser? for not following the time it will start which he stated. but he earns more money when he waits for more participants.
the players? how many actually reached before the registration time and start time? everyone just abuses that the organisers will wait for their entry fee.

just for today, i planned to join the tournament in khatib which states that it'll begin at 1430. and by 1445, i asked the organiser when is it gonna start, and the reply is nothing new "there's someone who is still on his way, 5 more min." i didn't want to put his name here.
so 5 min after 5 min... and i went up to the organiser again, and the reply is "5 more min, maybe u can call him."
i waited another 5 min, apparently the organiser didn't even know what time is this "king" gonna reach. i've enough, so i just collect back my entry fee from him, and walked off. before i did, i can tell from the list that, many had not paid the entry fee yet. this is another problem, it's so common that players love to drag the timing and unwilling to part with their money when they've already written their name on the list.

to this dear organiser, if you think you wanna please that 1 friend of yours and let everyone waits, you just pissed another friend of yours. and if you think you can earn that extra $5 from that person who is not sure what time is he gonna show up, you loss that $5 from me who is already there waiting for the tournament to be started.

now go on to those who just love to fly kites...
every time i go to elizabeth to catch arsenal's game, you people said you'll be there. and not a single time that everyone who promised to be there will all show up, there'll always be one or two who just said they don't feel like coming. just yesterday, i walked up to elizabeth alone because one by one sms me that you don't feel like going. (and i know one of you had said that you mostly won't make it because of other committment, i don't blame you.) every week, i'll receive sms just an hour before we're supposed to meet that someone is not coming.

not just watching football, just last friday when i supposed to meet 3 people for movies. someone sms me just 2 hours in advance that she didn't feel like going.

now it brought back memory that there was this once, i was suppose meeting 3 people for movie.
i took a train from cck to bugis via jurong east, and when i reached tanjong pagar, one smsed me that she didn't feel like going out and told me to inform the rest because she was afraid the rest will be mad at her. i told the other 2, and one got mad and didn't wanna come. the other was disappointed too, so it was cancelled. so i changed train from raffle's place to marina bay and then all the way to cck again.

give me a reason why i shouldn't be angry at such people!
