prenez une chance.

Destination for today, was the central market. i wasn't part of the plan at first though. yes. my father precisely stated.. " jom mama we go out to eat lepas ni." . with uncertainty left in my head, i asked mom where were they going. "hm? oh keluar makan dgn ayah. ayah ajak mama td". so....there, cleared that i was suppose to stay home. it was fine by me. but the one thing that bothered me though is that, my sisters. BOTH were going out to see transformers. haaaaaaiiiissss...

About 15 minutes, they were all gone. i was left alone, but! i was looking forward to it, because.. there was going to be a John Legend live special! on ntv7. but as always luck has crept out the back door, mum called.."abang get ready, were going out to central market." "-,-

I was lucky though cause going there only meant one thing. T-SHIRT STUFF. :) so.. me and dad went in shop by shop asking for prices. unbelievable, one print job would cost 30-60 ringgit gila. kalau macam ni, i tk sempat jadi kaya ba. so, i was ready to go back..but my dad insisted that we tried to print at least one, while we were there, just to make our trip worthwhile. so...went to the first print shop..there were no iron-on papers for them to print on..ok takpe, i smiled and said nevermind. second and the only shop left, orangnye boleh pulak keluar sebab ade hal..hai bang..hari laen tkdeke...tkpelah maybe he had some family business to take care off kan??

Btw, i found out that there were two ways of printing t-shirts. one is through iron-ons which is the simplest method and a better suitable way for me. the other printing method requires printing blocks, so that means they cant print out complicated images lke people for instance, because they cant make those kinds of blocks. so.. its obvious right? mine is iron-ons.

Back to the story, as we were heading out, my dad boleh pulak tibe-tibe nk stop. it wasnt plan, i could tell by his face.

he stopped and paused and he had this blank face. i was blank myself, but i was distracted by this guy with ujang like hair. yes. UJANG the comic guy which had long frizy, small curls kind of hair. then..he approached my dad. menggelabah i. this is the fun part, he was the nicest person setakat ni yg tegur us. others we met were busy and kinda...tak menaikkan semangat... :\

So this guy.. approached us and said " bang ade problem ke bang?" so my dad explained the whole situation, from the iron-ons, to the shop that so call were out of iron-on papers. pfft!. so this ujang guy, believe it or not, told us all infos regarding t-shirt printing..i was amazed weyh. he was really serious at it too. i was recording all of the advises he gave me in my head. he told me and my dad, that iron-on papers can be easily bought at computer shops, and that all i need to do is practice, trial and errors. turns out he had a shop there.

"oh. saya ade kedai bang, tuu ha kedai rock kapak tu, haha." he sells, "rock kapak" t-shirts.(none of my liking. haha) mr.ujang insisted if i had any problems, come see him there at central market.(sori bang jauhlah. satu hari nantilah.haha.)

Kind of odd how things turned out.. it all started because my dad had a blank moment. haha. when we were ready to say our goodbyes, my dad asked him a question..

" eyh kenapa, kau ni sanggup cakap dgn ktorang, org lain semua tk sama mcm kau."

"i'm a simple guy, saya tolong abang.. semuanya sebab..saham. "

we all had a small laugh.

i think i get what he said. :)

Well i guess, if i hadn't took this chance today, i wouldn't have known the stuff i was told.

sometimes chance just comes passing by i guess.

we just need to learn how to grab it.

We just need to take a chance. :) chewah.
