Life, As It Is

Waking up from a terrific dream this morning, I grabbed my laptop and started writing. By the way, my dream was really weird last night. I met her, and she said ‘I have a skateboarding tournament this coming Saturday. Will you be there?’ Then I replied, ‘Of course, I will.’ She added, ‘but this Saturday is the KL Indie Fest, you have been looking forward for that event for months!’ ‘It’s really nothing. I’ll let go anything for you, you know’. Haha. I know, I smiled once I woke up. Just like she’s really going for a skateboarding tournament this coming Saturday. Well, that’s what will happen when you sum up a concert with your girlfriend. Thank God it was just a dream. Yesterday, my little brother, together with my cousin flooded the whole house. They blocked the hole in the main bathroom and turned almost the whole house into a shallow swimming pool. It sounds crazy, isn’t it? He ruined everything in the house. The basket full of dried laundry was all wet again because of him. The water flowed right from the bathroom, out from the master bedroom and into the living room, straight to the balcony and outside of the house. Our carpet was all wet and the mat was spoiled. Once my mother came home from her English class, she was totally outraged by the view of her house. I was in my room when it all happened, so I didn’t notice what those little rascals were doing. Guess what happen next? Of course I was the one who were to be blamed. It’s not the first time that I got blamed from my brothers’ fault. It was nothing to me though. I was the eldest of all and for that; my commitment should be a lot more than everyone else. I’m getting used to it. Well, the flooding does give us a lot of work to do. But at least we could now mop our tiles, which we only do once a year. As a matter of fact, the tiles did look a lot shinier when it was dried! Well, life, as it is…
