Nothing like being woken up by my super awesome ringtone: 'Milkshake - Kelis'. Except that it was 8 am, and early morning starts DON'T bring my boys to the yard. It was Rachel (check out her blog: www.rachel-maykay.blogspot.com) calling. She has Thursday morning off at school, so we arranged an early morning meet up.
The plan was to play Sing-star back at my place, No.1 greatest past time. Time was of the essence, so I decided to pick her up from her school. I could sense her caution at having me drive, the asian driving stereotype and all....and secretly, I didn't trust myself either.
So after scrutinising Google Maps, I set out on a practice journey (to and back), so I didn't make an ass of myself infront of the paranoid woman. My precautions were redundant - I live 5 mins away from the place...way to waste my fuel rach :C jkslol
Leaving the house was a mission too. The people of the orient will know that asian parents are among the stingiest beings on the planet. Hence, I have no car. Double-hence, I had to 'borrow' theirs (they're not home during the day).
This procedure involves many minor details including:
- Placing marks where the the 4 tyres were to ensure i re-parked in the same spot
- Not adjusting the driver's seat, even though my leg can hardly reach the pedals
- Wiping the rain drops off every bit of the car (it was raining a bit)
Everything would be so much easier if i bought a Scooter like JD. Wolverines.
It was a problem free morning after that though, successfully picked up Rach, got some breakfast at the bakery and enjoyed a few rounds of singstar (I say win/loss was about 50/50 :P). After a solid hour of funsies, I dropped her at school and no harm done. No scratched hubcaps, no flat tyres, no dead possums.
Rest of the day:
- Met Hun and Renkert
- Got haircut
- Played pool
- Lost @ pool QQ
Big day tomorrow: ID cards, wakeboarding, clubbing, the whole shabam.
Goodmorrow.
