While I was drying my hair in my parents' room today, my mum suddenly got my brother to shout for me, from the kitchen, to keep the laundry since it was already dried. I immediately put down the hairdryer, left the room and walked to the kitchen to keep the clothes. Guess what? I got scolded because my mum said she called out to me many times and I never replied. Perhaps she thought she had a silent hairdryer. Nonetheless, I took down the clothes, and brought it to my room to fold. Not long after, Brother suddenly shouted for me, from the living room, and asked me when I want to set up the Christmas Tree. I opened the door and replied him. The incidents mentioned above had got me thinking ...
Why can't people just walk to the person whom they want to talk to and tell them the message instead of shouting it across the room? Wouldn't it be a much better way of conveying by telling the message to he person right in front of them?
I personally feel it is a much better way.
Firstly, the message passed to the other person would be clearer, and not like when it is shouted from meters away. In addition, when a message is being shouted, most of the time the receiver would have to walk over to get the sender to double confirm what they have just said to ensure that nothing has been done wrongly or to clarify any doubts. And that is rather stupid because it is doing double work. Secondly, there is more peace in the house with minimal shouting here and there. Imagine living in a house which is noisy all the time with nagging here and there. Trust me, you would not like it. I have experienced it before and it was hell. You'll never want to imagine what it is like to study in those conditions. Thirdly, speaking to a person face to face is a much more polite manner instead of shouting across. It makes the receiver feel better too, rather than to hear all the raised voices. Sometimes, when you hear a message being sent to you at an irritating tone, you can't help but to get irritated by it either. Right? Last but not least, it helps the sender of the message to lose all that weight by walking! Cool uhhh.
That brings me to the point on why don't people want to walk in front of you ask pass you the message. Perhaps one may be busy with their work and need help urgently, or it may even be an emergency that they shout for you. That is understandable. But I cannot think of other reasons that are pretty acceptable. I asked a few friends and they all told me perhaps laziness is the answer. They said that people are lazy to walk to tell a message, when they can just shout it over. They think that shouting is the best way as it saves them the energy. I don't really know about that, but I guess I would take that as an answer for now. I wouldn't call these people lazy though.
I think that we all should stop the habit of shouting across the room, but instead walk over to the people whom we want to talk to and tell them the message nicely. I guess it is the same as someone barging into your room as compared to someone who knocks the door to enter your room. Different feeling eh.

On the side note, I went out with Liying after her papers today. We did some catching up over lunch and we had Sakae Buffet. The food wasn't that great, but at least we had fun eating it. I managed to force her to eat the smelly beans! WHEEEE!
JAZEECAAAR FTW FTW FTW!

Actually I look like a glutton eating. But oh wells!
