And Hell Comes
The footsteps lightened as i approached the gates ytd...the ppl hangin round the front had brought dos old' creppy feelins of o' past...the intensity..the struggle...yow, dat hurts...as i turned the corner into the now visible gate, i c the sea...the sea of ppl of all kinds having one common thought: to wait for it to open, for wad awaits them to fulfill their pleasures...
i checkde my watch: 9.45am...well, not too bad, but wid dos lots of ppl hangin round the gate, it seems bad enough...bk in the o' daes, dis sea was supposed to b smaller...not much ppl will b dat tempted to wait for the gate...all of them...the kinda ppl, they r all dere...the student, the boyfriend-girlfriend pair, the old man who holds the bk of phrases...but they all had one purpose...it awaits them on the 2nd lv...
den, creppy sounds start to fill the rm...the over-friendly message...blaring out to dos ppl who worked rite behind the gate...creepy as it sounds, the sound of callin dos ppl to enjoy servicing the ppl who r waitin outside the gate...poor souls, muz b a sad thing for dos ppl to service the same kind of ppl every single dae of their lives till the dae they retire or quit (if they do, of course...)...
then the gate rattles...it started small, but the ppl waitin r gettin impatient, den shook the gate...the rattling sounds like chains tied onto a strugglin prisoner...ppl started to squeeze together...no mercy for dos who arrive later...dere will b little, if any chance, for dos who hang out at the veri bk of the now growing crowd outside the gate...ifs priviledge to get seats, the floor is nvr a gd thing to have, unless u like backaches...
juz den, a small gap formed btw 2 ppl...i tk a small foot forward and shuffled myself abit forward...juz to get a chance at dat priviledge...after wad seem like short moments, one of the ppl acting workin the gate, waering one of usual blue blazer, approached the gate and tried to open it, but to avial cos she dun realli noe how to work it...she instead called another of dos workin ppl to handle wid the gate...the crowd waitin at the gate could have booed, shouted, jeered...but they r patient...they gonna b gd ppl anyway...
finally, slowly but surely, the gate started to open...sliding upwards, heavenwards...the lucky little fellas who r as small as dwarfs managed to scramble through the small yet widening gap btw the floor and gate...one kid, sadly, tripped on his foot and fell...apparently, he dun make it in time to pick himself up and run frm the rest of the crowd now chargin thorugh the gate like an army huntin down the enemy...screams eupted as they stuggle for air...one preson got his shoulder rammed by the side of the gate as he struggled through...i tried to move through as the crowd dispersed past the gate...i would have gone for the 2nd storey, but alot of ppl had taken the pathway to the storey way ahead of me...they were literally climbin it...
...and hell comes to the woodlands lib on wad would otherwise b a peaceful saturdae morning...well, dats the onli annoyin part of ytd though...i immensed myself in dat superstar competiton in the evening...i kinda expected shaun to win anyway, given the fact dat his 'small-age' charm can win over the hearts of aunties everywhere...interestin is dat he can win the competition despite earning 30 for the 2nd half of the competition, sings off tune in the song by JJ and sang the wrg words in the duet wid Teresa...to thk dat the champ onli got thousands in money...lol, thought for a singing competition, shd have at least a contract, maybe short-term...hahaha...oh, ah hao, muz agree wid u on the account dat keely is pretty cute, but not dat as pretty as u had speculated in yr blog...lol...keely gd in singin, but her dancing in the 2nd round of the first 1/2 is so
repitative...i mean, twistin shoulers nearly every moment...weird leh, if u ask me...but her singing is decent lah...notin much to complain at dis moment...
benjamin shd have won the boys' champ if u ask me...his dancing quite gd lor...he also can hit the high tones realtively well also...but thing is charm...he dun realli have much charm as shaun...dats a sad thing...ahhh, and i not realli expectin stafenie sun (s**t, can't rmb name liao, realli long time nvr catch television le...) to b on the show...she not in s'pore for quite long, i thought she K'Oed liao eh...
hahaha...rite, typed quite alot todae, muz return to workin mood now...=D
