Today was a screwed up day. Theres no doubting that at all.
Firstly, in the morning there was chinese remedial. It kinda got the ball rolling for the rest of my screwed-upness, thanks to theodore and dave, who seemed to have many comments about Tiffany 티파니 that they really wanted me to know about.
Then me, brendan, ian goh (brendan's SJ fren) , gerrald, jia wei (also from SJ) and shao kang went to play basketball. At the open air court next to the tennis court. This is basically what happened.
PLayed match, ball accidentally rolled into the "adventure park" area. Some dude climbed in and this construction worker, who was chinese but spoke english said; "If you're ball comes in, go by the long way, around the fence to pick it up or else i'll puncture it. You don't climb over the netting that i took time to put up!"
I understood what he meant but what was with his angression? Puncture the ball?
It didnt end there. about 2 mins later Liu Chun(yet another SJ dude) came and the ball flew in after an airball by brendan (lol). As i turned to walk the long way around the green fence, i saw from the corner of my eye Liu Chun jump in to pick the ball. As the angry construction worker called out to all of us to go there, i tried explaining that the dude just came and didnt know that he wasnt supposed to do that but that screwed up guy just shouted "BRING THE BALL HERE NOW!"
I was pissed, lik seriousy pissed. I grabbed the ball and stormed to him, my 6 other frens behind. Below is our converstaion.
(I stands for Isaac, CW stands for cnstruction worker)
C: Pass me the ball.
I: (holding on the ball) That guys just come he doesnt know.
C: PASS ME THE BALL
I: (Slamming the ball hard on the ground but he caught it damn...)
C: You all dun understand English isit?
I: (really starting to get pissed... being told off by a construction worker? WTF) I TOLD YOU LIAO THAT GUY JUST CAME HE DIDNT HEAR YOU!
C: That is a stupid excuse, your frens could have stopped him right? You could have told him rigtht?
I: He
JUST came! We havent even talk to him yet!
C: Dont give me stupid reasons. I will be working up there, (points at the log =.=) what if some of my equipment drops on your head? Will you be responsible?
I: No
C: Then? How am i supposed to answer to your parents? Just tell them "no"? You are from catholic high, not some dog school or cat school (sarcasm fail)respect is given here.
I: (buey song liao) OK
C: If you dont have respect for me then you're worse than a dog.
I: OK
C: I am not trying to humiliate you or something (to tell the truth i wasnt even humiliated on bit)
I: OK
C: I coul have closed the whole DAMN basketcourt. Mr Lee gave me permission.
I: OK
C: But i respect you all (ya right) let you all play.
I: OK
C: I said if your ball comes in -
I: (cuts in) OK
C: (also buey song liao) CAN YOU SAY ANYTHING OTHER THAN "OK"?
I: No.
C: NO? THEN SHUT UP!!
I: OK
C: (Even more buey song liao) LATER I WILL BE UP THERE DRILLING HOLES IN THE LOG (HAHAHAHAHAHAHA) THE FLAKES THE COME OUT ARE FUCKING GONNA GO INTO YOUR EYE!!!
I: OK (he think he use vulgarity i scared arh)
(the whole time i was staring at him without blinking at all) (he stare back)
C: You guys have fun (passes the ball back)
I: (grabs the ball and turns away) (thniking: you have fun drilling your damn holes too)
The whole time all my 6 friends were quiet, only me talk back. Haiz could have done with some support.
AND THIRDLY, after that episode with that guy, we went to the ISH first floor to play basketball. Half court was being used, so we used the other half. We werehaving so much fun until eugene's class came. We were fucking paying match and then they start shooting their own balls at the hoop. Idiots sia. Their freaking ball hit brendan 3 times. My own frens (i used frens not juniors) Eugene and Joshua were there) Eugene wasnt playing and had enough sense to try and persuade his class to go elsewhere while Joshua was shooting and doing lay-ups. Fuck? Thanks a lot la.
Perfect day. Really.
