Ding Dong Ding Dong.
Knock knock knock. POSTMAN!
I dont understand which part of knocking does the postman not understand. Since he already rang the bell, why did he find it necessary to even knock and shout his profession?? Must be cause he doesn't know the way a doorbell works.
Dear God, please find it in your heart to forgive people who loves to do these unnecessary things. Amen.
Anyway I was lazing on the mattress being my mattress potato, therefore my mom answered the door.
Malay Postman: "Is Ms Tan Wen Qi at home? An official letter for her."
Mom: "She very lazy. I sign."
There's just this thing about Mothers. I think they are made to openly criticise you. Yes, even if that person is a complete stranger like the postman you see once in 6months.
So she signed my letter for me, glanced at the logo at the right hand corner of the letter and announced to the living room and me, "Letter from the gar-de-ment. isd very-da important. Read." And shoved the letter unceremoniously in my face.
I chirped "Thanks a @#*^R$$^%%^*$&( billon Mom!"
I torn the letter eagerly. After all, everbody has been talking about the Gar-de-ment year-end bonus. It means a matter of life-and-death for people like me.
The letter reads:
Congragulations, Ms Tan Wen Qi! You are turning 21 in a few months. It is indeed a milestone in your life. How about considering donating your organs while your are alive?The rest of the letter reads more or less of the same gist. It translates into our 3 other major languages too.
My first impression?
I feel so blessed I have such a wonderful Gar-de-ment! They take care of my organs even after I die! OR should I say even before I die....? They even remember that I may not read English so they gave a copy of bahasa melayu, mandarin and hindu. I am really really really such a lucky lucky girl!
I wonder if the Gar-de-ment will entertain my death wishes too. I just want to see old Father Christmas and there is this old man who has snow white hair who fits the bill to the tee. But then it means I have to donate my organs isn't it....?
I'm getting confused...
I'm going to bed now.
