Of shattered glass and skilful lass'..

We went to HarbourFront yesterday for dinner. As usual many Angorians dropped by for a convenient dinner before heading downstairs for the Cold Storage or home to prepare for yet another arduous (how negative) week ahead. Looking up from where I was seated, among the thorns, it looked like a scene out of a church camp lunch/dinner. Diana and I and a few other youths went to play pool afterwards.. Joel and I got beat by Diana and Celena at pool.. wha!! like how embarrassing is that? To be honest though, they played well.. really well to be more honest.

Went walking around after that.. to this shop at which I fancied a particular adidas top.. decided not to get it again.. cos' it costs $49..went to a number of places but ended up with no new clothes/toys except a regular Orange with banana from Orange Julius.. Headed to Cold Storage (again) this time at South Buona Vista cos' my mother wanted to check out the "half price after eight-thirty" chicken. No stock. So drove to Video Ezy two minutes away.. Rented 6 DVDs including "The Gods must be crazy 2" and "The Matrix". Can't exactly what I did when I came home.. oh I meant to watch 1 DVD but did not cos they folks were watching "One Leg Kicking"..

So i stayed in bed talking to Diana on the phone while watching Charlton host Newcastle at The Valley..till I decided that that was boring and decided to have a kickabout in my room.. Usually that would consist of a few Ronaldo stepovers.. a few Beckham-esque curls into the "goal" or a couple of neat "Keano-style" trappings of the ball. Eehh..yesterday's footie session ended with a bang... thinking I was Goldenballs.. I tried to bend zee ball into zee goal.. Guess what I ended up breaking zee glass door.. *Sigh* tio bei pio poon bo an ni zun.. (which translates literally to "strike lottery also not so accurate".) Anyway.. this is what happened in slow mo..

Thought I was Beckham..
"Bent the ball"
Ball didn't "bend"
Ball hit glass
Glass detachted from frame
Glass slowly fell down
Uttered "oh-oh"
Glass shattered...
Watched glass shatter..

So I didn't know what to do.. just stared at it for a while.. My father and my sister came in..

"What happened?"
"Ahh.. the glass fell down."
"Orh.. Ok."
(pause for few seconds..)
"Ah? How did it fall ah?"
" Ehhh.... (softly) kick ball lor."

My father kindly swept the fragments for me as I stepped on one as I was about to clear the mess.. That was nice.. after that.. I had taken too much for the day.. Went off to bed.
