I've been playing rounders for 2 weekends now with, as Za would call it, the pioneers of bukit panjang and may I say I love it. Of course most of us are now not as agile as years ago...trust me those above 20 cant even bent down properly to get the ball...but we still have fun. Za seems to be the enemy of the state. She's the target for most of the boys...and boy do I mean target. They don't just try to tag her with the ball, they throw the ball....HARD...We had lotsa fun and laughter and at times like this that I'm so thankful we have this game,though with less appropriate equipments and some dickheads. Almost forgot about the dickheads.There were this bunch of boys, probably around 15-16 and I tell you, some dickheads can't keep their balls to themselves.And by balls, I meant their football. They were playing right where we were playing and their ball hit me twice and very hard may I add.And when I say hard, I really meant hard. Once at my legs and 2nd at my already cramping stomach. The third almost hit me on my head la. But not once, did these dickheads come to apologise. I hinted a lot of times for them to say sorry but nay-dah.That spoilt my mood for a while but the game definitely kept my spirits up.Like I said, I'm thankful for this game.
Coz honestly, I'm not liking where I am now....
Home is really irritating now. All I do is to stay in the room.especially when youknowwho is at home. But when I'm in the room, there's always the other youknowwho in the room. And all I do is get mad at him. I'm not trying to be disrespectful but sometimes I just can't help it. All he does at times is to complain this and that. For eg. he was always angry that my mom comes home late and don't cook. FYI. My mom goes off to work at 4 in the morning and comes home only at 8pm. My aunt cooks at home.BUt NOOO...he doesn't want to eat it. He went out in morning only to come home in the evening and yet he's complaining he hasn't eaten though very well he has eaten out. I'm just mad la.My mum is really not feeling well now. Some of you know of her condition and I tell you, it's getting worse. I spent every night now to take care of her leg. Warm water, gels,you name it.She hardly sleeps and it just pains me. The emotional turmoil I face at home is really a bit too much.And the pills I'm taking aint helping. I know I'm always psmsing when the time of the month comes but after taking those pills, I realised and know that my pms has doubled. It's really bad and I can't help it. All this is really taking a toll on me.I missed the times when I had someone to turn to, someone who has the strength...My grandma. It seems that with her absence, everything just falls apart. Family ties are gone. Familiarity now breeds contempt. And it sucks.
Let's just hope this game will go on every weekends till we all get bored with it or the boys(my budak-budak bawah blok that is)grow up and think it's uncool to play with us foggies.Haha.
