.Anger Management

What a day. I was at the beach today with my family. Had a great time because we don’t usually go out that much and since its school holiday, it’s the only chance where we can spend time together. Everything went well until this incident. My cousins were playing football with this bunch of people. We usually do that because it’s a chance for us to socialize with new people. So they played while I was just sitting and enjoying my food. As I finished my food I went to look at the game and took some pictures. I thought my cousins are losing coz they were all look unhappy with the ‘L’ look on their faces. It was pretty logical though because looking at their match, I think they lose in terms of body size. Haha So I decided to tag along. The game was okay, as per usual, all the running around until I realize that the other team keep on shooting the ball far behind the goal post. Then there’s also this guy (let’s call him L for now) who kept on saying “wei friendly wah, fun fun saja” and I thought he was right since it’s just a friendly game. Not long after a middle-aged guy came tagged in with the opposing team. Once he got the ball, he just shot the ball way behind the goal post. I was irritated by his action because I know he did it on purpose so I said “padang damit bui, jantah tandang jauh-jauh” then L got offended and said “eh, relax wah, friendly ja, mun kan marah jan main (something like that)” so I said OK. So the game resumed until I got the ball the middle-aged guy tackled me and in the end I lose control of the game. L, assuming I would be pissed by the tackle (which I was’nt because I know its just body contact) shouted something like don’t play rough and the middle-aged guy said its body contact and I also said its OK. Then all of a sudden this L guy came up to me and picked a fight, telling me to watch my mouth and think before I say something. I was like, what’s going on here, it’s just a game and that also offended him. Man, this guy is really hard to deal with. Probably because he has a big fat body and he can bully anyone around. Come on, he’s playing with a bunch of kids of age 15 – 18 years old and he had the nerve to pick a fight. How uncivilized and immature was that. He told me that my cousins had been playing rough since the very beginning which made him play along “to make sure they’re playing fair” in fact he started the mess. And the uncle (I dun’t think it’s his uncle. Probably his dad. Because he is as stupid as L haha),when everything was tense, rather than being a grown up and cool everyone down, he said something like “aweh, aku nandang jauh jua ganya.. baik lagie tu daripada kau ku tandangi”!! Is that how a grown up should react? You are so immature. In the end I managed to cool his small head off because I don’t want to get involved in fights. I never like it. I would like to be hit though, so I can report it to police and have you pay me $2000 cash. Hehe

 But this is the thing. It’s a shame to have our people with this kind of attitude. For example like in this situation, by his reaction just now, my cousins got kind of traumatised to play the moment he lose his head and picked the fight. They were all scared, not because they’re coward, but its because we were not raised in a barbaric way as L, and this kind of scene is a new thing to them. I hope what happened today won’t stop them from socializing with others through football.

 And as for you L, you might think you were cool picking a fight with my cousins. Well guess what, I have your picture. Now everybody in Brunei will know how big a loser you are. This is the year 2007 “bui”, we live in a high tech world now. This is not the barbaric age to think that picking a fight would make you cool. Sorry loser, you should go out more often, see the world and learn to socialise. Not just stay in your sick small hut and count ants. Shame on you. No wonder your friends never invite you to play soccer with them, because you do not have the sportsmanship spirit. All said. I feel better now. hehe
