Pissed off!

Woke up pretty early this morning, 1st by the aunties' noises but fell asleep shortly, then awaken by high tide (having weird dreams about finding toilets again). Lazed in bed after toilet and wash up until almost 11am, playing mahjong game on my handphone. Sis then sms me and came in to get some medicine from me. Poor sis got sore throat again, so is Web. Dunno why everyone is having sore throat almost all the time...

Met Web at Orchard heading to Great World City, intending to catch a movie 1st. Too bad the interesting shows had weird timings and the rest wasn't quite worth to watch. Had a drink and chat before leaving for the temple at River Valley area.

We stayed abit longer this time as we were both trying to cool down in the main hall. The prayer session then started so we moved to one corner and sat down to watch. Then this auntie suddenly came and volunteered to find a book (or dunno what is it called, with the song recitations) for us, saying since we are there, we should sing along (念经) too. We kindly rejected her sayings it ok but after a while, she came with a book and showed us the page. After a while, we came and asked me if I need one and I said no. She came back again passing me another book!! Wabiang this auntie is too kind or what...

Started following the lines in the book while they recited in hokkien. I was already feeling abit bored trying to catch up with the lines and trying to decipher what those lines mean, then I lost track. As I picked up again, realised that the recitation is so damn long. Then the auntie came back again and pointed to me where they were at (which I did not lost track then). She showed me one part if each line started with a triangle, it should be repeated thrice. And you know what, she started pointing to me each and every line and each repeat. Hello... I am not an idiot ok... starting to feel irritated, somemore she sat down beside me!! It carried on for a while until I got so pissed off as she had to point to me every single verse that I just closed the book, put on the chair and told Web I wait outside.

I almost felt like slapping somemore then as I went out and really damn pissed off. Come on, try to be kind but have a limit. Do I look like an idiot to her? Although its the 1st time I ever touch such stuff, but I am still literate ok... kns!! Luckily Web came out shortly and empathised with me. We left the temple while I complained to him.

Took a bus to Parklane area and went to buy some 4D and soccer bets before going a drink, followed by dinner. Went back to Hotel Rendezvous to watch the live matches of Liverpool Vs Tottenham and Fulham Vs Chelsea (half match). Liverpool finally scored a 3-0 which should help them raise their positions abit at the EPL.
