Today....the sidewalk was not thoroughly shoveled so my aunt got scared from falling, so we were walking on the edge of the road. Whenever we hear a car pass by, we would stop and let them go. But today - this guy was driving a 20 year old car swore at us and told us to walk on the sidewalk. He got so mad that he kept swearing. What's so mad about? That we are doing something wrong? I guess he took it personally. But I don't know whether to laugh at him for being angry for no reason or what.

Last week, my aunt and I were leaving my grandparents' place and we were taking the elevator. On the way down, this Russian old woman walked in from another floor, and started talking with the Russian woman that was in our elevator with us. Instead of walking out to talk, they blocked the elevator door and kept chatting. They heard us started talking in Chinese, knew that we were complaining about them, then they said to us: "Can you wait 2 minutes?" The problem is - we know that old people cannot stop talking - they will talk more than 2 minutes, can't they step out and let us just go down instead of holding onto the door? We went out of the elevator instead and took the stairs. The woman blocking the door was looking at us in disbelief, thinking we cannot wait until they finish chatting. They are the ones who are wrong here!!! and they think we are wrong!! That made me so mad. Arrghhh......old people.
