Beware of DONATIONS, at least in my case

Are you feeling angry, sad, happy, mad? Well today, as usual we had lunch at Novena. Really yummy-yummy lunch. Ikan Penyet but the chilli is woooo! Unfortunately, shit happens. And it had to happen twice, today. Bahhhh! While me and the work buddies sat at this particular place, there was this uncle behind. He was like "who pushed the tables", angrily. I mean the place is freaking crampped yet he is sitting alone reading a newspaper on the other side when they were 4 of us; complete the whole area. How Singaporean is that? This uncle is a typical one. I mean, why so kiasu? Relax ar. Its not like we really do it on purpose or something. There is always such thing as being nice. Now that's that. End of story, goodbye. So we were going to make our way to the school. I was standing and reading cleo outside 7-11. There was this girl who approached me for donations. I was like wookey. But she said i can donate any amount. Even 50 cents. Take note: she didnt say "A DAY" here, i swear. I dont know whats wrong with me but on other normal days, i'd be pretty mean to people who approach me unless i feel its closest to my heart but gosh, i was soo wrong. It was donation for kids and i love kids. She said it was some kinda home in Hougang. So i agreed. I wanted to take out a $10 note cause that i did not have change. But she said i need to do bank transfer and such and that they dont take cash from people. I was asking why and she said so the bank and you yourself knows where the money is going. I was like wookey after the 5th time, she won me over. She took down my particulars. And i only agreed cause she said the bank will call me when they make the withdrawals. And that's when she mentioned 50cents a day. By this point i was like," Huh, i thought it was a one time thing". ASSHOLE! I was obviously cheated. And there was nothing i could do but she said i could terminate it anytime i want by calling her. I know its a good cause and everything but how can i commit to $20 a month when i am having troubles with saving myself? I felt cheated to the max. I was worried they might withdraw everything from my account soon. I was worried i'll be tracked. I was worried if they use my account for something, something illegal. You know, a scam. GOSH, all these i realised after i talked to Hanafi and Zaheerah about it and i felt so dumb and stupid. Mama thinks i'm dumb too and i'd better act, fast. I know... stop making me feel sooo silly already. How can they do this? That was a really sincere moment that i wanna help kids and they make use of me this way? They make use of my genuiene sincerity (yes yes i am passionate about kids) and my awww-ness for kids to cheat me like this? Urgh! ASSES! How could i be so vulnerable? How could i be so dumb? How could i fall for it? How could i give a stranger my address and worst, my freaking bank account and agreed to be deducted. I freaking signed anyhow. There wasn't any receipt. There wasn't any namecard give. All i was given was this girl's number and name. And yes, i did called to terminate my donations, she said she was busy and texted. I told her i don't approve of the methods and told her i wanted out. I still remember my no on her list thingy. She says she will void it. I told her to let me know once she's void it. Urgh, no point worrying over this. What's important is to solve this shit. I. FEEL. SO. CHEATED. BIG. TIME! Why are there people like these, these days? Can't they find other method of finding money? I cant fully blame them for doing, its me too who's to blame. Why the fuck did i fall for it? Yes, i am angry. Angry with these retards. Angry with myself, most of all. Gotta get over it JANNA! So to those of you who happened to stumble upon people such as these, remember to walk away and brush it off them. As for myself, i will definately give them sarcastic remarks....Just at least once. Gosh i'm angry, i need to listen to Mama Cass. Take care everyone. Keep your friends close, your enemy closer. JANNA.
