A Day of Shopping

Yesterday evening, my family and I went shopping for my school preparations. We went at 3 in the evening and got home after dusk. Well, many things happened...

         Firstly, I hate shopping. On second thought, I don't think that I hate shopping. Maybe I hate shopping with my family. It's hard to born as a fat person in a family with slim people, you know. Well, my mum and dad is slightly overweight but they used to be slim in the past. Meanwhile, I was always fat in my life and remain a fatty until now. It pains me a lot to go into a shop and asked the worker there, 'Where is the larger size clothes placed?' Since I was a kid, I always had to buy L, XL, XXL sizes. I started to hate it. Every single time. I remembered when I had to buy some jeans for Eid and I had to try many sizes until I found the suited jean for me. The workers were laughing at me. I cried a lot after that and I resigned to myself that I won't go shopping any longer from that point onward. They will NEVER understood me and so do my family.

          Then, we went to shop for our school uniforms. We went to three separate places and to find all of our needs. To tell you the truth, the time that I had to accompany my family is the WORST time I could ever imagine. It was like, there's a wall that separates me. I think that I will always turn that way. I am not a fashioner person. I don't keep it to date at all and I like to go through things at my own pace. But living in my family, makes me feel like I'm being drag on and have to pretend to be someone that I don't want to be. My younger brother, in other words, is a very determined person. He knows exactly what he wants and how he wants it. Although, (I'm a little bit too conceited to say this) I'm smarter than him, at times like this, he made me feels like a retarded and idiotic person. He pained me because every time I saw him, I saw my pathetic self. And seeing that is so~ not good for me.

          After done with our shopping, we went to enjoy some KFC time. As usual, I got to eat my SUPER favourite 'cheesy wedges'. That's the only thing in this shopping day that delighted me. My special time with Mr. Cheesy Wedges. Surprisingly, I met Jeyamalar and Tian in the premise. Both of them are my friends by the way (I'm not sure about the latter). I greeted Jeya and then we parted. It kinda awkward to meet your friend while your family watching, you know. Anyway, we enjoyed our finger lickin' good meal after that.

         On the way back, something unexpected happened. We were involved in a VERY small incident. It was right after rain and the road was kinda slippery and there was a car in front of us that braked suddenly. My older brother pressed the brake and due to the slippery road, we hit the back of the car that was in front of us. The other car was safe while our car sustained two cracks on the bumper. My mum was furious and blamed it all to my brother although I want to say that, those sorta incidents can happen anywhere and at anytime. After that, we got into our car and drove home with just dead silence in the car. It was kinda tense, if you ask me. Well, I'm fine with tense atmosphere so I'm fine with it. What I wonder the most was my older brother's feeling. He wants to get married to his long-time girlfriend and it seems that his plan has to delay for awhile because of the damage onto our car. He has to pay for it all.

         Anyway, today was sorta an eventful day. Tomorrow, I have to go to school to retrieve my book texts  for Form 5 and buy some additional books. I bet it will be another eventful day. I also bet that, there'll be someone who'll ask me about my preparation for SPM. It will surely be an hectic day! 

Ya ALLAH, ENGKAU permudahkanlah urusanku keesokkan hari. Semoga perjalananku selamat bersama berkat-MU. Amin...

PS. There's a quote that I've held close to me today. Today is a new day, right?
