Wordification

Damn sleepy day today. Hardly did much work, cause was in town for the whole day wtf.

Went all over the place with dog and moose. Got some shirts. Some store in far east selling a new batch of A&F polos, which have some quality for a change and are at decent price.

Then we ate.

Then watched Aragon. Saw Denys at lido who was with some small sized chao ah beng looking ex nj canoeist who looked like he wanted to get beat up. Turns out after dog identified him that he studies in smu and from other reports, apparently has a high affinity to dustbins.

Aragon was a nice show, though many lines sucked and it was kinda childish, but the aftertaste was good. Unlike saw 3 omg. Yuck.

Then we ate.

Then came home to supposedly do weights but we ended up playing cvs2 and ninja turtles lol.

Walked to ksl to eat supper with moose near midnight when after we crossed the junction, a car swerved towards us with a screech as it tried to avoid hitting this idiot car who tried to turn right too early. Had that car not swerved back in time, we may have been hit.

It happened so fast. A peaceful night, going to get some supper, when we hear a screech, and turn to see this car swerving to the right and straight towards us. My right hand shot out to moose's right shoulder, right foot shifted infront, ready to push him behind me as I continue to stare at the approaching car.

It was a female driver, I thought that we were dead. Then, she swerved back left away from us, and at that moment I thought we had encountered a super zai female driver for a change. She had swerved instinctively to avoid the oncoming car, then swerved back into the right direction. Power.

On retrospect. If the car had continued to come towards us, and I had pushed moose behind me and out of the way, both of my feet would have been grounded firmly in order to transfer enough energy to push him away enough, and I would not be able to regain lightness in time to move away from the car myself.


Its kinda dumb that I can react to defend myself or... disable someone else when I'm in danger. But when someone else is in the picture, I'm not fast enough to save both.

Moose said that he was ready to jump, but while my hand was on him and the car was approaching, I could feel that he was frozen, tense, instead of light and ready to jump. Maybe I couldn't let such a hapless guy die, and forgot about the consequences to myself. Because I know that if I had considered the possibility that I would be hit, I would have tried to think of another solution to get us both out of the way.

But sometimes a second is not enough to second guess yourself.


Thank god she was damn zai.
