Defense!
Seen those not so good looking secondary school kids plying the streets lately? What's the hottest street job lately? "Talent Scouts". Got accosted by one of them today. Scenario goes like this
Eager to please Talent Scout (EPTS for brevity)
EPTS flashes namecard hi i'm a talent scout would you like to be a model?
Me No it's alright [moves right]
EPTS [mimicking my footsteps] You're pretty..
ME cuts in No it's ok.. [tries to shuffle left, looks at EPTS' feet hmm.. shit move right]
wrong move! EPTS corners me next to the pillar!!
EPTS You're really pretty (as in it's real she's not faking it, rather than an exclamation of my
"good looks")
ME thinking to myself darn she's a very persistent girl
No it's really ok (repeatedly & a little more frantic now coz she managed to blardy corner me & i'm fucking stuck!)
EPTS How old are you?
ME 22 [still trying to move, looking around for help]
EPTS Oh that's young
ME thinking And u're most probably 16 oh you're youngER!! duh.
still repeating myself No it's alright [finally i move away] -phew-
Usually you can swot these people away with a "It's alright i'm not interested". This girl was fucking persistent. Goodness. But she's quite a nice girl i think(not because she insisted that i'm pretty, oh maybe it is), she actually reminds me of my classmate. She's so cute like a little girl(my classmate). But part of me was impressed by her persistence, that's after i walked away, but i'm not amused!!! GRRRR. Ahh whatever. But her footwork was seriously good, i bet she plays netball damn often, if she were my defender i would have lost already, basket. I'm amazed at her footwork and how she managed to corner me though. But ARGHHHH not amused!!!! Ok i've ranted and vented my anger enough. I finally can sleep at normal sleeping hours. And i've got an assignment to do for homework a lit critique requiring me to read 3 journal articles. I've got 1.5 more years of this madness to go, i wonder how long i can take it. Nvm i'll last through all this shit just like the 3 years in poly. Same old same old.
