Kid Skaters + A Mad Weekend

you know what i'm afraid of?

Children on those skate shoes, heading towards you with no idea how to stop!

Every now and then i step into a mall, be it PJ or AKL, it doesn't matter. you'll always see a kid perform a start-up run and when he/she puts one leg in front of the other. *sigh* just brace the family jewels because there will always be one kid that wants to crash the party. thankfully i've never had that experience but i came so very close this weekend. Being a new year weekend and all, you'd expect HUGE if not MASSIVE crowds at the malls, so really bumping into people is no big deal. So iw as walking, usual stride nothing too fancy, just a calm collective walk. BEHOLD a kid armed with enough spunk, charging like a bull; locking its prey in RED and armed with {long pause ......................... a skate shoe}. i looked at this kid, and thought "ok lets reassess the situation, this kid has no idea how to steer, he headed towards me and i have only 2 secs to react ... CUP IT"

i swear ..... he miss by a hairline, the kid might have been thinking, "god, i wanna have a BIG fuckin value meal not NUTS" and learnt to steer in a 2 sec crash course in skate shoe skating. Imagine if he hit the target; with my recovering tennis elbow, i'm not sure if he would have made it better. He could have squeamed in pain and cried or i could have cried { hey it's the family jewels}. Either way, it would have been scene, thankfully it never happened.

I guess .... kids you gotta learn to control your stuff you own { and no you don't own a wife!} take your tool for instance { your birdie, your wormy etc} after taking a much deserving plant watering, you either learn to wiggle after every session or risk practically everyone laughing at your acute problem. And how do you learn? common sense. "Every tap leaks a few drips after being closed"

it was a mad weekend, which brings me to a really funny scenario i had in TGIF 1Utama. We sat next to 2 smoking China's and a group of Indonesian Chinese. These girls obviously weren't through shopping and their overly obessive manner caught my attention. Indonesian BM is spoken really fast, so fast it makes them sound wacky. So the 3 girls were taking pictures, laughing ... BAM it occured to me, these girls {think general asian size} were out eating me. Caesar Salad with Chicken, Chicken Alfredo, Chicken Crispers, a Burger, Lemonade, Coke. They had realised that too, ask the waiter to return one order and after 5 mins it returned. i didn't stay to witness the glut fest but i can safely understand why they need new clothes.

Have a good week.
