I'm lovin' Angels instead

I believe someone out there sent guardian angels to protect me.

I was at Taman Budaya KL today with my tutor Mr.L, and classmates SiewLing, PorPor, MayTzy n Aiwi to watch a comedy play by PingStage. The play is entitled Family- Father And Mother I Love You.



The play explores the different facets of a relationship between parent and child. Some of the dialogues hit close to home, like there was a part where children always complain that their parents never have time for them, and how our parents always tell us the infamous "it's for your own good". It made me laugh and cry at the same time. This play is light with good humour and the intent is fairly easy to understand. However, audience who are unfamiliar with Malaysian culture might take a little time to grasp the jokes. Nevertheless, there were only 7 actors playing many roles for 8 different scenes. I appreciate the actors for convincingly delivering the characters and emotions through their face. It touched me deeply because the play has successfully delivered what is intended, family. :)

The short review above is just something i felt i should justify about how good the play is. Anyway, u all must've thought this is about my parents are the said guardian angels.... Okay, not entirely wrong but something else happened.

I parked my car opposite Taman Budaya, which is also opposite the police station. It was fairly easy to get a parking spot that day so we were delighted with our luck. And somemore its opposite the police station, what could go wrong?

Well, i was wrong. A BIG FAT WRONG!

When I came out with everybody after the play we decided to go for supper. Then MayTzy n PorPor hopped on to Mr.L's car while SiewLing and Aiwi followed my ride.(thank goodness, keep on reading n u will know why) As we all hopped onto the car getting ready to leave, i had difficulty reversing the car. It felt like the car had stuck into mud. Then Siewling said:" ei, here a bit scary la at nite, so many wrecked cars." We all agreed cuz the parking space is meant for cars involved in accidents to park so the police can take pictures for case file.It was dark and dodgy, and i was so damn stupid to be parking my car there. What were u thinking, cheng choo? Have u lost your brains?

So i immediately left. Then i realized the car was sinking on the right. We knew something had happened to the left side of the tires but we didn't dare get off the car. So siewling n aiwi immediately called Mr.L for help. (they were already almost reaching the said supper destination)We made sure the doors were locked and waited inside the car.

About 5 minutes or so, Mr.L and the rest arrived. Then only we dare come off the car n checked the wheels. And indeed, both tires on the left front and back are flat. Someone (which i like to think it is a someone) let off the air in the tires. We shuddered a bit but then we decide to just stay calm and make the most out of the situation.

Everybody helped me change tires or at least keeping a lookout when some are changing tires. Mr.L and my classmates are really awesome, and everybody kept the situation light. *oh my goodness, I love u all, SERIOUSLY* Then Mr.L escort me to the nearest petrol station to check the tires n fill up the other wheel. (cuz i only have ONE SPARE TIRE maaa) After that, we went for supper, Mr.L suggested that we wait a while to see if the tires leak, to check if it's puntured or only flat.

To cut the story short, my tires were only flat. It appears that the air has been let out. Everybody made sure me n my car was ok before we all parted home. They also called me twice just to check if i've reached home. OH MY GOODNESS, i'm so thankful that i have people like this in my life.

I felt so loved, someone loved me enough to send guardian angels to protect me. Guardian Angels in the form of Mr.L, SiewLing, MayTzy, Aiwi and PorPor. Love them loads n loads. And blessed me with common sense not to get off the car to check. If i were alone just now, i might not be able to be sitting here telling this incident. I'm stil shuddering but I'm thankful :)

Ok, i PROMISE PROMISE to blog about japan very soon. now am busy. And tmr i have exams. So toodles for now!

til then
