Recently, my school held a fundraiser for the families who lost everything in the recent North Queensland floods. And seeing as blue and yellow are the colours of the most popular sports team of the region, the fundraiser was ‘wear blue-and-yellow’ day.
Now, I’m half Malay. I don’t do ‘yellow’ because it makes me look sickly green. So I went and bought blue stuff: some elbow-length satin gloves, a sparkly masquerade-style mask, and to top it off, a blue plastic hat shaped like the top half of a dinosaur head. I was set!
Then I was asked to attend a workshop that day. Sigh.
No gloves. No sparkly masquerade mask. And no dinosaur hat for me.
Double sigh.
Oh well. At least I get to share them on here with you!
Here’s wishing you a fun-filled week yourself, dear Reader!
