me: hello. where are you?
cousin: just finish work, on the way back.
me: ooo ok. i miss you laaa...
cousin: oi. you drunk is it?!
i wasn't drunk. it was just to annoy her into thinking i was drunk, while she was busy with work, and others were not. slightly evil.

the family and i headed down to 1Utama because there was a nickelodeon event going on last week. holiday treat for the nephews. it was kinda disappointing, over-hyped, and a cheap advertisement for the company. but i guess kids are easily pleased (somewhat), and they enjoyed themselves with the limited activities.
anyways, the host was kinda weird. it was this lady in her late twenties. she was sitting on the stage, kids sat on the floor in front of her, and she tried to entertain them. at her wits end, she asked the kids to guess her age. kids ranging from 3-6 years old. one of the kids thought she was 12. kids do not know how to judge wrinkles, my dear.
i think the host was sticking to her job because it paid well. she finally decides to introduce herself, and says she's from johor bahru. again, kids don't know geography. then she asks, if anyone's from there.
was she expecting anybody to acknowledge her? of course she was. LIKE ME! i raised my hand. and we ended up having a "conversation". she on the stage, speaking through the mic, me about 30 feet away speaking and hoping she reads lip.
she: you also from JB?
me: yes.
she: have you seen me before?
me: yess i have. (with utmost semangat)
she: where?
me: errrr. city square!
she: where have you seen me before? (guess she didn't get it)
me: CITY SQUARE!
she: oooo. during one of the shows?
i nod my head vigorously.
she: oh okay. later i give you present okay?
i smiled back politely and gave her a thumb up.
i'll tell you something. i have never seen her before in my life, but city square is the only place where events like this would take place. i was *fingers crossed* hoping my blind shots would hit the target. apparently it did. because at the end of the day, i got two limited pink dora the explorer lanyards.
as much as i wanted to keep it for myself and wear on board to work, i felt gracious to my nephews and let them have it instead. see, it "pays" to be from JB, and told you she's just in it for the money. for a temporary period, i was the "kid" she was paid to entertain. why do we have to grow up again?

- Q
eh please la. why you go gate crash a kid's event? Now there will be one sad child who missed out on the limited, special edition pink dora the explorer lanyards. You should be ashamed of yourself! Go sit in the corner and think of what you did!
;D
Q: hahaha occasionally evil :) and yes i'm the biggest fan. literally :D
hummingbird: i didn't gate crash, i brought the kids there. AND i did not keep the lanyards to myself, i gave them to the nephews. i know la you jealous, tak dapat pergi, AND tak dapat limited dora the explorer pink lanyard, but c'mon. don't be sad, i'm sure they have many more road shows you can get it from! i know how you dig her lil monkey friend boots :P
and i'll only go sit in the corner if you accompany me. boring la alone XP
