The Prophets Divine
Sunday, September 03, 2006
Friday went to watch Monster House with my mom and sis. As usual, she was late and i and my sis had to wait in that minefield of surveyors, charity donation collectors and model recruiting agents. The movie It turned better than expected. It was actually pretty good. Exciting, funny and even a decent storyline.
Ok, so my mom decided that we would be eating in that night(we were sleeping over, not a plesant night tho, i kept waking upp at odd hours), she bought tempura flour to fry with fish. So we had to take a train from orchard to city hall to change to the green line but my mom proclaimed that the train would be less crowded if we stopped at raffles place so we did and surprise surprise it mad no bloody difference. And wen people were shoving their way in, she ran off to some other door far away to find 'space' but me and my sis couldnt be bothered to follow her.
So we got of at tampines, and it was me and my big idea to go get snacks for supper, but apparently there was nothin i fancied. But on the way out to the old chang kee, i decided to show my sis the boots from timberland that i liked. Big mistake. I found out that the price had been reduced a whopping amount from 299 to 89. I was disappointed cause i already made my hair appointment for next wednesday. I felt relieved tho, wen the salesgirl told me its for ladies. Seriously, you couldnt tell just by looking. But then my mom wanted to try it on. I was pissed for 3 reasons. a) her dressing is always ridiculed so it made me feel disgusted that she liked the same thing i did(thank god she doesnt like my taste in music). b) she took so bloody long to actually buy the thing, trying it on(i should have said it looks horrendous on her... and come on, she's 38, this is such an act of denial) and when she discovered that you get an additional 20% off if you buy something else(my mom is the cheapskatest woman you'll ever meet. Once, she tried 99 percent of the testers in one biscuit shop and didnt buy a single thing. She's very anal about discounts too.) She took so freakin long deciding what else she wanted, that i left to go buy sotong balls from old chang kee on my own.(in the end she decided on a t-shirt for my granpa... not that she's so thoughtful, but cause a 39 buck pair of shoes didnt come in my sis' size and she couldnt think of anything else). c) She said that the was short of money cause she hadn't got paid yet, so that earlier on, me and my sis had to share money to get our own popcorn(which she also ate) and yet that hypocrite could buy a pair of $89 shoes.
The tempura fish she fried turned out tasteless and by the time we actually ate, it was 11pm.
And here's somethin else. If i didnt have such a detached relationship with my mom, i'd be so disgusted. I found this pack of lady-version tongkat ali/viagra in her room. Not that she made any effort to hide it. And like its a joke that me and my sis have that she always dates ugly people. Maybe thats y she needs it. She is so going to hell.
The second line of 'benifits' on the back of the pack actually says 'to attain climax'. Seriously. I mean like it supposedly is for overall well being, but there's far less kinkier stuff for that i'm sure.
So the next day i tried to get her to take us to fish&co for dinner but she brushed it off with a "some other time". We ate at kfc, and was about to go take bus but my dad being overprotective told us to cab home. Well, this cab driver took us through these really eerie roads, a route i've never taken before and i... well. See i'm one of the most paranoid people you could meet, its just that i dont voice my worries aloud. So anyways, i got paranoid, thingkin he was like gonna bring us to some secluded spot and rob us or something so i wrote the cab number down on my sis' notepad(in case my phone got stolen). It turned out fine if you're wondering.
