I felt compelled to blog about today, so here I am, re-telling the happenings.
It all started with the spontaneous decision between my last-minute-hug-buddha-leg friends to resume our last-minute-fast-and-furious regime at a McDonald's near Rabbit's place. And there we met, with Leonard being the last to arrive IN THE STORM oh my.
Either Eugene or Leonard made a remark out of the blue, which sounded very light hearted and casual, almost like a brushing statement. It sounded like this to me:
"Why is there a 小强 in this McDonald's one."There was already a horror glob growing within me when my brain processed what he said, but just to harp on the minuscule probability that I heard wrong, I asked him to repeat.
He proved my ears right, and the series of events that followed included me grabbing and yanking Rabbit's sleeve, me having a semi-screaming monologue with myself and the three boys laughing AT MY FEAR thank you. To my greatest and deepest horror, that freaking cockroach started crawling IN MY DIRECTION. Wah piang there are 360 degrees for it to turn from it's location and it chose precisely the angle IN MY DIRECTION and zoomed TOWARDS ME as if someone pushed the auto-pilot button.
What did I do?
SCREAMED FOR HELP la!
My Rabbit stepped on
something, I ran from my chair to behind Leonard, and my Rabbit released his foot just to find a still-furiously-wriggling cockroach and kicked it, followed by Eugene's massive kick as if it was a soccer ball that sent it flying out of the premise. Such was the cockroach drama segment.
And, both Eugene and Leonard saved my life BIG TIME today by teaching me how to use my calculator to compute deviations and means without having to manually do so. I never knew my boring little cranky calculator could surprised and in turn, impress me so much!
