flawed work of art.

on saturday, a few of the interactors including me went to the sari saujana home after cca. my 2nd time going there. the same 3 kids were there since the last time I visited the place. we spent half the time embarassing ourselves by singing, clapping, playing & exploring. poor sham was kinda traumatized after one incident as we were watching the kids play with the colored tiles. hahaa. I also visited some parts of the home I never knew existed, such as the kittie area, where there were like, a bunch of cats in little cages, some very exotic-looking Siamese kittens were also included. cutesy! we also went to the 'zoo area', where we saw turkeys, geese and chickens. hyukk. reminded me of the lost world or something, coz' you'd never imagine to see something like that in a down syndrome kids' home.
after my mother finished watching and criticizing the charles & camilla wedding at night, we (dad, mom, uncle mel & me) went to a very popular indian restaurant in town.. it was so popular that mostly everything was already sold out! it was the cheapest & fastest dinner we ever had & in mother's case, the dullest. :| she kept complaining that she felt as if she never ate anything. poor dadda was shaking his head so much. my bro and I both agree that my dad resembles bert from that popular children's programme, Sesame Street. and everytime he starts shaking his head, it reminds me so much of Bert. he knows it too, coz' I always tell him so. and he'll give me this I-can't-believe-my-kid-is-calling-me-a-cartoon face.
the next morning, I woke up at 5.45 in the morning! coz' of the coffee and chat thing in church. well, we were only required to be there by 7, but my mother had to rush for mass too in another church so yeah.. after chatting with desmond a little while, I went off to help the aunties with their food. the early birds ended up preparing sandwiches. auntie said my egg sandwich was uh, not worth buying. :P whoops. stef, dez & I were then appointed to sell roti prata & curry.. we were all enticed by the aroma of the chicken curry that we all started drooling. yum yum! we had quite a profit, really. I roped in all the aunties and uncles I knew (and some I didn't) to enjoy the very very very delicious roti prata, while stef packed the roti and dez did the whole curry job. we all were laughing hysterically half the time but I guess that's what made us finish selling it. heehee. even shawn's dad was like,'I'm gonna buy it, since y'all are so cute...' hyuk. I immediately noticed the uncanny resemblance of both father & son after that. a little while after that, I became one of the table-wipers, bussing the tables and clearing the dishes. cheryll was so cute, singing 'I'm enjoying this..' through gritted teeth in a rather sarcastic tone. it was so infectious that I soon had it in my head and unconsciously started singing to the same tune. after a while, she added a little skipping sequence to it. that was seriously so hilarious.. in fact, it was rather fun to be helping out in the whole coffee and chat project. :D may the upcoming youth rally be an overwhelming success too..

The show keeps going on and on but
You'll miss the whole damn thing
I wish I had a crystal ball to
See what the future holds but
We don't know how the story ends
Till it's all been told
On any clock upon the wall
The time is always now
So baby kiss the past goodbye
Don't let the future blow your mind
