Right, the title says it all.
I ended school early today, since I blatantly decided to pon my chem lecture, afterall, all I would be doing in lecture will be forcibly trying to put toothpicks in my eyes to keep them open. yes, and since I am taking part in NTU open bowling tournament tmr, and for the fact that i havent bowled in mm let's see the past 2 weeks, I decided that to save myself the shame of throwing gutterballs during the tournament, I shall go practise today. So, I happily lugged my 12kg worth of bowling balls and barang, took the NEL, and headed for the civil service club at farrer park to bowl. As usual, I know ppl were staring at me and probably wondering what the hell is in the bag, But I got that often enough, ignorant non-bowlers, so it wasn't anything new. But, when i reached farrer park station and was clumsily trying to search for my ez link card, this station control guy started to walk towards me. Then, with those suspecting eyes, and accusing stare, he asked me what was inside the bag. I honestly freaked out a bit, but replied and said bowling balls. Then he actually asked me to open the bag to show him! Reluctant as I was, but I dint wanna cause a fuss and raise any alarm but I think I already had, so I opened the bag and showed him. After which he said, "oh ok, You can go now, sorry mdm standard procedure."
I was left there dumb-struck for a while, and all the commuters passing by were giving me weird stares, it din't help that I was wearing a bright pink butterfly shirt with a bright blue berms, orange high socks and bright red clown-like shoes. (ok, I know I got bad colour coordination, but that's because I was rushing). Anyway, yes, I hurriedly closed my bag and scuttled off.
HELLO!!!! I do NOT have a beard, neither do I have a BADDIE look, nor do I look like a TERRORIST!!! What did the station control idiot thought I was, HUH someone that was going to bomb the NEL is it? Firstly, even if I intended to bomb the NEl I wouldnt have chose farrer park, it's too deserted and there's no point. Secondly, if I really intended to plant an explosive, I would not be wearing BRIGHT STRIKING COLOURED clothes. Thirdly and most importantly, I DO NOT in any way look like a TERRORIST. I repeat DO NOT look like a TERRORIST.
Man, I thought the "auntie" incident was the ultimate worst thing that could happen. Oh no, I was wrong, now this "terrorist" incident. Time for a complete makeover. hmm.. maybe an EXTREME makeover would be necessay in this situation. I have got numerous nick names all my life, and there are always people telling me I look like this person that they know, or I look like blah blah blah. Hello, I know I have a common face la, but how is it possible that I look like everyone that everyone knows all at the same time?
ok my sis is here and she INSISTS that I write about her. Yes, I have an irritating sec3 sister, Clarice Choong, get off my back now now now.
Ok privacy intruded I shall stop here.
