The Small Glimmer Of Hope

Today I found out that one of the new friends my mom made when we moved to the new house a year ago, has passed away. My dad was telling me the last time they met was for breakfast and the day after they never saw him again. We assume that his health got worse and he was hospitalised then.

So my dad was saying that during their last conversation that the uncle mentioned about bring my parents to have some nice 'bak kut teh'. And of course it never happen. So when they found out that he passed away, as typical Chinese, my dad took down the uncle's car number plate number and went to a lottery shop (You know, one of those shop where you predict the numbers that are coming out in a draw... Yea one of those).

So according to my dad, this friend of his only buys from one shop only, Magnum 4D. So my dad bought the lottery from this same place and he went his merry way home. The next day he checked the results. And what do know, the number came out. Second prize no less.

But my dad thought he don't get any winnings because he bought the number in such a way that it might not be eligible for the first 3 draws prizes. So he crumple the ticket up and threw it away. And then he found out that he can actually get something out of it. A small winning of RM160. So he went home and found the crumpled ticket that he threw. And here we are where my dad was telling me about it and how the uncle wanted to bring him and my mom for food. We guess this winning is a way of him telling them that 'bak kut teh' was still on him.

I'm never one to believe in such a thing. You know how when an accident occur on a highway and there will be a huge jam on both side with people trying to see what had happened. Most of the time it will be the Chinese drivers that want to have a glimpse of the car number plate so that they can buy a lottery ticket with it. And most of the time the number never come out in the results.

But in this case such as my dad, I guess these are the occasions that are still keeping people with the small glimmer of hope that maybe, just maybe that the number that they buy will come out and they win the jackpot. Hmmm... something to hope for for everyone in this world.

.... well, 'bak kut teh' for dinner tomorrow in honor of this uncle's fine contribution. =D

..... *gasp* .....

OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!! SHOCKED!!!

*glow glow* *glimmer glimmer* *giggle giggle*

..... ah you must be wondering why I'm in such ecstatic mood. What put me in this mood?

No. I didn't win any money or found out that I have a huge inheritance waiting for me when I turn 26.... I'm just happy that after weeks of being told that my English is not up to par or that I've been constantly being corrected ... I finally got a break today. Mr. Perfect English said to me that I pronounce 'neither' the right way and he pronounce it the slightly wrong way.

Teehehehe... Happiness.... (Yes yes I find happiness in the tiniest thing) Teehehehe....

*gloooow* *sparkle sparkle*

I'm Tired

Sigh... Never enough. What I do is never enough. I feel tired and beginning to think that all the guys out there are just not for me. Or at least the guys I meet are not for me.

They say one thing but in the heart they mean something else. They tell you that they don't expect anything but yet when you do something, they go all ballistic on you saying that you're doing it intentionally to hurt them yada yada.

Why can't they just say, " I don't like it. Can you not ?" instead of going all psycho.

Meh, getting tired of all this.
