MAY DAY! MAY DAY!
Labour day was a very social day for me. Hey, I managed to surprise myself meeting a lot of new people in just a day! I had a wedding invitation by an old classmate of mine. Destination: Marine Terrace. I wasn’t too crazy about it at first when I got the invitation card. Instead, I was trying to remember the faces of my friend’s sisters since that was more entertaining than the idea of going to a wedding. I hate weddings and not to mention that the venue was set on the other side of the island. Not the idea of 2 people getting married per say, it’s just the whole ceremony affair that is so damn exhausting. And there always some instigating aunts and grandaunts poking their noses in your personal life affair.
Anyway, I was supposed to meet Mandom at 12.30pm on Labour Day and attend the wedding together. (Is there any reason that I am attending a wedding with another guy???) Yeah, I had the tough luck of having Mandom as a classmate in my graduating year as well as the 2 fun years in ITE. As some would know, it’s hard to have fun with Mandom around, hehehe! But I had the feeling that he deliberately became my classmate either because of a) I am a Hensem guy. So naturally, tagging along with me would broaden a guy’s chance to score with a chick, b) my charismatic personality simply awed him into idolizing me, c) or I’m simply a lovable guy & he had misinterpreted the lovable part into something else. (Mandom, I love ya, man but not like THAT)
So, I was on my way meeting Mandom when there was an earthquake and the ground cracked, shooting water. I was stunned at what happened and barely had the time to recover when a huge monster crept out of the crevices of the opened ground. If I wasn’t mistaken it was a Kraken, a kind of sea monster, which somehow managed its way to Jurong West. This grotesque monster went about callously flailing its tentacles terrorizing small children! It was then I told myself, the wedding had to wait. Somebody had to teach that damn monster that it’s wrong to scare off small children like that. Taking a deep breath, I went to face the great odd, which may very well end my life. I didn’t care; I had to stop this stupid monster.
It had been quite awhile since I fought something this big. Thankfully, I always carried my light sabre along wherever I roam. Screaming at the top of my lungs, “Hey you big, flat, sotong-like bully! Pick on someone your own size!” I managed to get the Kraken’s attention because it’s face scrunched up for a second before taking a swipe at me with its slimy tentacles. I ducked and then somersaulted over its tentacles and at the same time slashed my light sabre through them.
“Woof! Woof! Mauuuu!”
I smiled, feeling the satisfaction of hearing the wretched beast howling in pain. That’ll teach him to terrorize small kids. But I spoke within too soon because new tentacles began to grow where I’d slashed them. And this time there were sparks coming off the tips of those goddamn tentacles! Suddenly without warning the Kraken shot a lightning bolt at me! But thank goodness, my reflex was quicker and I caught the end of that lightning bolt with my palm absorbing the impact steadily just as Master Yoda had taught me in TV. With great effort I managed to feed the bolt back to the Kraken.
“Woof! Woombeeek!”, Hah! Poor Mr Octopy got entangled wif its own widdle lightning bolt.
I knew it was then or never, I placed my light sabre in front of me and leapt into the air. As I somersaulted, positioning myself over the top of the Kraken ready to deliver my fatal blow and send it back to whatever hole that spawned this abomination, I took a deep breath. When I open my eyes I let out a cry that would strike fear in the hearts of most evil of men.

It’s all over in a second. Remnants of tentacle and goo lay all over the ground. It was messy I tell ya. Instinctively I glanced at my watch and remembered Mandom. Shit shit shit! There was no time for me to catch the bus or even a cab. So I had to fly, and in mere seconds I reached my destination and psionically preventing Mandom from leaving me behind, I called him on my cell phone. He wasn’t too happy about it. I wanted to tell him the truth, I swear I did but it would mean I had to compromise my identity as a Jedi Ninja. There were so many people out there who depended on Jedi Ninja for protection and justice. I was in torment, my Jedi senses picked up the violent thoughts of mandom. And I decided to face it like a man. I told him that I had set the alarm clock late and that was the reason for my late coming. After being reprimanded by such harsh, cruel and chastising words, I hung my head low in shame and asked for forgiveness. In my heart of hearts, if only mandom knew….
So we arrived at the place without much fuss and had a great feast. As I was depleted of energy, I took in more food than I am used to. I only had rice. Mandom reprimanded me more by not allowing taking the meat that was served with the rice. And all I could do was sulk.
After an hour or so, we headed to City Plaza where Ezjazz & his merry men are scheduled to meet other fellow bloggers. I felt apprehensive of this whole affair, blame it on my shy nature. Hopefully my shining buddy will be there since mandom had been so rigid with me. How I wish I could show him my rigid stuff! (Did that come out right?)
By the time I reached the meeting place, everybody had introduced themselves to each other, I suppose. And in turn I was introduced to the rest of the group. They were a bunch of great people. I was quiet though most of the times because there were more girls in number than I had expected. They were shy too but real nice. So Me shy, they shy everybody shy shy. And I look up towards the heavens, praying for strength to go through the day without making a clown out of myself. (You know, we superheroes get mixed up with our goofy alter egoes at times)
I guess the best time was spent at the airport’s Coffee Club where everyone was relaxed and started to get real comfortable around each other. Me and Zedeye are of course very comfy with each other, hehehehe. Plus I saw this bombshell of a flight stewardess, which I didn’t tell no one about! I am still fuzzy with names though. I only got Ridjal, Mr Robot and uhm...Mosh? Moosh? Moshy Moosh? I swear that every time I asked Mary Jazz of the name, she threw back the same question at me. With fighting monsters & weddings all in the same day, my Central Brain Unit is running low in virtual memory. All I can say right now I’m sorry I didn’t get the names right, but I aim to get it all down the next time we meet, yes? After all what good is a super hero if he can’t remember names.
So remember kids do not drink and drive and do not smoke to fly because flying smokers gets trapped in the spider’s web!
