We were supposed to go off to the islands tomorrow for our Open Water Diving Certification cum holiday with the boys. Then about 2 pm today, H called me and said "errrr... we can't go tomorrow. I have to work". Soooooooo POTONG STEAM!
This trip has already been postponed twice before... so counting this time, it's the third! I told H that at the rate that we are going, by the time that we are to take the REAL certification, I would have FORGOTTEN everything that I've learnt!
Some more I had to cajole S2 yesterday...Our convo:
S2: How are we going to the island?
Me: By Boat
S2: Why? Why can't we take the plane?
Me: Because the boat is the only way to get there.
S2: I don't want to go! What if the boat hit a BIG rock? How if there are sharks?
At this point, S1 piped in.
S1: Yeah. What if the boat hits a rock, and there are sharks?
Me: *Frustrated* Aiya....there are no sharks lah...Besides. Not all Sharks are dangerous.
S1: Wait. Let me go check
S1 proceeded to open up his "DISCOVERY SHARK BOOK" to read.
S2: *Whining grumpily* I'm sure got sharks lah.. After the sharks eat us all...
Me: *Fed-up* Aiya...If got sharks, I will ask the shark to eat me first lah.
S1: Yeah. Yeah. There are NO great white sharks in these parts of the world. They are found in ..blah blah blah (proceeded to name the places where Great White Shark is found)
And then I saw S2 hugging his pillow very quietly. Thought he fell asleep. Took his pillow away, and this fella was sort of frowning crying but not really crying kind.
Me: What's wrong with you?
S2: *Dramatic expression* You lah! You said you gonna get the shark to eat you!
Me: Aiya.... No sharks lah. Your brother already said NO great white shark in these waters
S2: What if got sting ray? Pierce our hearts??
ALAMAK!!! That fella remembered about Steve Irvin pulak!!!
.... Then I had to cajole. Explain. All sorts lah...before he finally calmed down.
And when he heard that the trip has been cancelled this afternoon, that siow-kia shouted "Yay! We don't have to die!"
