Insignificance

Sunday, August 8

Either today was sheer bad luck for me or it wasn't my day.. having my Physics and MUET (joel's blog has a whole list of MUET facets.. go read.. funny) exam tomorrow and I'm forced to attend functions... not just one but TWO.. and there's more to it... sighh.. at mid afternoon, had lunch at a restaurant in conjunction with my mom's mother's friend's son's baby daughter's @ mom's mother's foster son's baby daughter's @ uncle's baby daughter's one-year-old birthday celebration... Phew~.. later that evening around 7, I had to attend another of my mom's sister's son's @ cousin bro's engagement dinner at Lok Thian.. Good Lord.. where in heaven's name would I have the time to study for Physics?!

and there I was feasting upon delicious cuisines of Shanghai food.. in spite of the horrendous outfit I had and my "questionable" punctuality.. dark sizzling brown coke in glass with a pair of purple chopsticks beside not matching the white glass plates on the table.. surrounded by relatives.. waiters moving back and fourth pouring refills and serving dishes from table to table.. right till the end of the dinner, one smooth swift of hand movement knocked the glass of orange juice beside me, pouring sweet orange coloured liquid right on my lap..! "WHat ThE.........!?" Shit... humiliated.. it was my aunt.. fortunate enough it happened at the end of the dinner.. other guests were already leaving and I was left alone under the table cloth wiping orange coloured substance off my jeans soft white branded tissue.. UghH.... later then, the waiter was wrapping red table cloths and I was forced to leave the table.. by then, the disgusted orange juice had dried.. leaving a stain of orangish substance on my shirt and jeans..

Never will I be anywhere close to orange juice again and never will I even drink it..
