Jerseys

Today I brought a child to CGC and he came in a Juventus soccer jersey. I was playing around with his mobile as he showed me the pictures inside. There was a picture of Liverpool FC, Chelsea FC and many others.

Honestly, all the logos look alien to me. Tell me the name, I know (er, I have never heard of Juventus till today). Show me the logo without the name, I am lost.

Unfortunately, I angered my sister last night. She was asking me for her red Manchester United Jersey but I really cannot recall how the Manchester United jersey looked like. Neither could I remember borrowing it. She must be real pissed cause I did not offer to even look for it in my wardrobe. Usually, I would. However, timing was slightly not right as I was in a grave conversation (to my opinion) with a friend who stayed over.

It is really unfortunate because sister really found it in my wardrobe (my heart must have skipped not one but two beats). Even more unfortunate, the styrofoam-like glued-on logo peeled off because it was folded (and my heart skipped even more beats). My bad, my bad.

A few mistakes made - I forgot it's with me; I didn't offer to search for it; the logo peeled off. Sister must be thinking "Wah liao eh! Everytime lend her something, sure spoilt. I have never spoilt her tops." I guess I must be quite "lucky" in a sense because my clothes were never attractive enough for sister to borrow. "Unlucky" in another sense because even a top that I borrowed can be spoilt from a dripping clothing from above.

That said, I better refrain from borrowing anymore clothes from her. I am blogging this because, well, I really feel sorry. This is also a reminder to myself the consequences of a careless mistake. Naturally, my sister was angry with me and again, we had a mini cold war. Despite the conversation that was still going on with my friend, I was thinking how to ever make up. I guess the best 'gift' I can really give myself is to give myself lesser of such "heart-attacks". I better just stick to whatever I have inside my own wardrobe.
