the boy with the big goofy glasses... (A Story)
there was this boy... he just entered primary school...
he had big goofy glasses with really really thick frames...
he wore pants too short for him...
he had a wallet too big for him... but it was empty most of the time...
he never asked for much... he didnt need new toys.. he didnt need a computer... he didnt need much because to him life was perfect all the time... he'd lose himself in his dreaming whether he was asleep or awake... it didnt matter to him... he liked the nice quiet life he had...
and because he was always so quiet... he never really talked to other people much... they weren't in his little circle of flying cars, knights and dragons. (he of course at that time didnt understand the need for damsels in distress) his little adventures were to him, already really really interesting...
"Girls? bahhhh dont need one of those in my stories..."
he never made many friends because he was quietly drifting in and out of space...
the few friends he had were his classmates sitting to his left and right... and his "Buddy" or elder brother in P.5 ...
his buddy was a pretty happening person.. but the only thing the little boy liked about his Buddy, was during recess when he would bring him to eat the school's char siew rice...
he wasn't the smartest little boy in class... seeing as he never did quite pay attention
... but he had one strength... he was very speedy and quick for a 7 year old... it seemed he was a natural sprinter... he'd get chosen by his form teacher to lead the inter-class relay team...
he'd outrun his opponents by a large gap.. and build up a insurmountable lead grabbing the gold even before his other teammates had ran...
he'd get challenged by seniors of the school to a race... the first to make it from one side of the basketball court to the other and back wins... the bet $5 (of course he didnt know anything about betting being the innocent thing he was... u see he never did care much for the outside world...)
he won and got cheated of the $5... as soon as he had reached the other end of the court and was beginning to run back, the seniors (who were seriously not even close) ran off..
he didnt know what to make of it really... he decided im gonna finish the race and did... and then got booked for running in the basketball court (the girl prefect was abusing her authority laR! girls... sheeesh..)he stupidly gave his name to the prefect and simply waltzed off to class as though nothing had happened... (and nothing did happen..) people picked on him all the time.. a malay kid punched him in the stomach for no apparent reason and he didnt complain... (a prefect saw took the kids' name down and) the next day the litte boys mama came down to school and showed the principal who's boss and got the malay kids' momma to come down for a chat toooo... the little boy couldnt care less.. he simply stood watching the fishes in the principle's office while the big fuss was going on behind him... not knowing what was wrong.. and why some people did the things they did...
his p2 chinese teacher particularly hated him... the teacher would get him to crawl out the back door and into the front door like a dog whenever he was caught day-dreaming... he pretty much began hating chinese lessons.. he didnt do his work.. and the teacher pulled his hair really really hard while yelling at him... threw his heavy bag at him and punished him for every little thing he did like asking to go to the toilet... pretty sooon mama came by the school again.. and took the little boy away from kebun baru primary for the last time... he'd been transfered to a new school..
"mommy why do i have to wear new uniforms? why cannot go back to school? i wont be able to see ashley anymore...." (ashley was his best friend in kebun baru... his full name was Ashley Fox... and the little boy didnt know it but he was for a time best friends with the brother of Cheryl Fox... who would become a celebrity in time to come..)
"u are going to a new school.. u'll make new friends... and i heard there is a ice-cream shop in this school.." said his mom encouragingly...
of course it worked... this little boy knows the meaning of ice-cream shop in school.. he'd be able to buy as much ice-cream as he could.. without his parents stopping him
(he loves ice-cream... this one time in kindergarden before he knew the meaning of $$ he crossed the road after school to the mini mart to get ice cream while waiting for his momma to fetch him...
"Uncle one ice-cream please *points*"
"50 cents boy..."
"Huh? what is 50 cents?"
his momma came just in time with a big 50 cent coin for her little boy who made her worried sick... he had slipped away from his teacher's sight and jay-walked to the shop... (of course the teacher never could hear much after that...)
the next couple of years in his new school, St.gabriels primary, went pretty much smoothly of course he still didnt do his chinese homework though the teacher tried and tried to encourage him... he just didn't want anything to do with it... it was the "Evil" subject..
he still didn't have many friends... he was one of those kids that would spend recess alone enjoying his charsiew rice or ice-cream...
then one day when he was in p.4... a friend asked him to join them during recess to play football.. he knew wat it was of course.. he'd seen it on tv... but he'd never been asked to play before... why not he thought...
day after day he got better and better... but he was still the same quiet boy... he would score a goal for his team and quickly run back to defend the next kickoff without celebrating.. he never had much confidence in himself...
one fine day... his friend(the footballer) asked him to try out for the school soccer team... of course he didnt mind.. just followed blindly... and he immediately made a huge impression on the coach from the first training.. using his god-given talent.. he out paced all the other boys during sprints .. and as simple as that.. he got into the team and with that he was no longer invisible to people... he became a prefect not long after... he got above average grades which was a huge step for him...
but he never did lose his dreams... and he developed this love of movies because they were so like his dreams.. there were no limits in a movie... he'd beg his elder sister to bring him along whenever she and her friends went for movies... and he'd follow quietly... not making a noise.. not wanting to be a burden... afraid his sister would never bring him for movies again....
to be continued....
