Post Float Dinner

Hesitated for a while before deciding to post this as it is pretty painful to me and might be offensive to some. Went to dine in Vil'age with my dear and the float comm and dancers for AY 06/07 for a post float celebration. Since i wasnt involved directly in the preparation of float, i politely rejected the kind offer by Sharon and Jeremy to give me vouchers the float comm had purchased to subsidise those who were involved. But after seeing the dancers, knowing they had excess vouchers, grab even more food even though they were already full, i kind of wished they would allow me to use their excess. "Hey i still got some excess from the vouchers, i'm going to have more ice-cream!" That comment was like an arrow piercing through me. No doubt the float people do deserve the treat, but at least be a bit more sensitive to some others who weren't involved and had no vouchers? Then there's more to it. After the dinner, some of them decided to watch a movie. We arrived at the cinema at 10pm+. The movies all start at 11pm+. By the time the movie ends, there won't be any public transport home for me. And i am not rich enough to take cabs. Doesn't anyone think about me? It's not as if i have a car. And i cannot share cab with anyone as i am the only one living in the east. In the end i had to treat my dear to the movie and go home myself. At least my dear had 3 friends to share cab with. Sigh...
