When you've got a dad...

  1. Who wakes you up at 11 a.m (on a public holiday!!) to ask if you'd want to go down to K.L to get new shoes for futsal knowing that the current shoe you're using is torn.

  2. Who keeps nagging and tells you to hurry up because by sharp 11.45 a.m. he's gonna leave the house.


  3. Who know's the exact bus to take, where to wait, and when to change bus to reach K.L faster.

  4. Who can't stop criticizing and commenting on people in the bus, "look, that lady is gonna fall if she don't hold on to the bar properly, stupid lady, carrying so many things at one time" (true enough it happened, she fell), "look at that old man sleeping", "stupid RapidKL driver, not efficient".

  5. Who keeps talking about people not having common sense and just can't stop talking throughout the whole journey on the bus. (Konon lar, he got a lot of common sense, which he has but am just too egoistic to admit).

  6. Who says that we're gonna reach K.L sharp at 1 p.m. (yes, we reached K.L at 1.02 p.m. according to my Swatch watch. Lol)

  7. Who suggested that we walk to Pertama Complex, 20 minutes walk to be precise.

  8. Who walks faster than me, zig-zagging through everyone faster than me (for an old man, damn, he's fucking good, I just couldn't keep up with his pace).

  9. Who slips and fall, and laughed it off (stupid slippery floor)

  10. Who tells me the same history of the Coliseum Theatre and Cafe over and over again, EVERYTIME we passed that place.

  11. Who takes time to go shop by shop to survey and ask for the best price, make a bargain, even RM2 discount matters to him A LOT.

  12. Who waited patiently for the stupid sales-assistant to get the size wanted but eventually coming back saying that they're out of size 9.5 and 10.

  13. Who tries to brainwash his son to use Nike instead of Adidas. (sorry but I just cannot use Nike for futsal/football, its rubbish)

  14. Who tells his son that he's still got time to check around, even when he's suppose to be at work in 15 minutes, reporting in at 3 p.m.

  15. Who walks with his son to another bus stop just so his son could hop on to a bus to Bukit Bintang to meet up with his friends (time was 2.48 p.m.)

  16. Who rushes off like a mad person, walking really fast back to work.

  17. Who calls his son at 7 p.m., asking his son to go to any sports shop to try on the shoe wanted, get the correct size and report back to him so that when there is size in Pertama Complex, he'll buy it right away so his son wouldn't have to go down to K.L again (common sense dowhh).

  18. Who goes to Mid Valley at 9 p.m. (during his break) to check whether they have the said shoe and size, and whether its cheaper compared to Pertama Complex.

  19. Who calls the shop in Pertama Complex the following day to check whether the size has arrived, called twice that is, only to find out that the wanted size will be arriving either Thursday or Friday.

  20. Who without any complain, says nothing but just to make sure his son gets his pair of Adidas futsal shoes.
Tell me which dad actually takes the trouble to go all out just because of the wants of his children. He even buys sanitary pads for my sister, for Yankee Doodle's sake. Cut it short, my dad beats all other dads in this world, sorry to say that. Check that old man out.

*supposed to post this entry on the 9th of March, but got too lazy to blog that day*
