this is not the first time. and definitely not gonna be the last.
i am somewhat pissed for now. whenever i set some time out and try organise something. i hope at least people would have the basic courtesy and give a reply. a simple 'yes, i will be there.' or 'no, i can't make it'. that's all needed. you don't need to come up with some grandmother story, telling me this and that, i wouldn't award you with an A for the amazing story telling skill. while some can be even better, saying they can't make a confirmation on their attendance, and will get back to you "SOON". ok, the word "SOON" is so being mis-used over and over again. till the appointment date become history and another few years down the road, not a single word is heard from them regard that "SOON". but when people just treat my email as 'oh-another-junk-mail', that totally turn me off. and i am sure, when the next time they text me a sms for dinner, etc. i will simply do likewise, ignore.
these people just don't expect to be given any kind treatment. well, till they decide to do something on that, else.. enough said.
