the seeds of racism

this happen quite a few days ago...exactly the day when i said i wanted to go catch the man utd vs arsenal game that night....errr..i guess =P

i was walking to macquarie center, u know the shopping center thats just a stone's throw away from my house (literally), ehehehe....okay, i was wearing my red Manchester United shirt aite....

near the entrance of the shopping center, just after the pedestrian crossing...two boys were sitting at the side step...i think they are about 8-9ish years old?well, i'd give a max of 12....they asked me as i was walking past them, "u supporting man utd?"

err...so i answered "yea"...and straight away they say..."you suck"

thats like....whoahhhhh....i didnt really stop walking to be having that conversation, so....i just continued walking la...in my head was just, "kids nowadays...tsk3"

so i got my stuff...a phone card that i was supposed to buy ages ago =P hehe...i walked back to my house (to the annoyance of some ppl i would say, "the house thats just 'sepelaung' away from the shopping center"..hehe)...

the kids were still there...and when i approached them, they asked again, "u support man utd?"....this time i stopped coz i wanted to cross the road u c, and the light was red....and so i answered "yea"...and yes, they once again tell me, "you suck"...

no, this time it didnt stop there...sensing lousy arsenal fan, i asked them, "which team you supporting?"...you know, maybe they one of those gooners =P

they didnt answer...instead, they asked me..."which country you from?choina?"....i said, "malaysia"...and then they said, "go back to where you came from"....

...b.l.u.r.r...

the pedestrian crossing light turns green, with that oh so OZ tutututututututtutut sound...i didnt layan them further...i just crossed the road... (come on, pick a fight and bertikam lidah with kids who probably dont know where china is on the world map?i got class k...)

i didnt expect that from those kids...come on, maybe they are die hard arsenal fans who just wanna have fun teasing man u fans....i dont mind that...but whooaahhh...now thats what i call the seeds of racism...

made me think...hmm, how bout malaysians in malaysia?kids in malaysia also not any better actually...sometimes we think they just joking around but, what if they dont grow out of that joke? sad...pls do not teach our children racism wehh...and pls avoid prejudice between races, and hence avoid transferring those prejudice to the children...prejudice is a product of lack of knowledge, lack of understanding, and fear. so learn, understand, and make friends.

to those who share the same sentiment as these kids....unless u are aboriginese, u can also go back to where u came from...hehehe...

i wish i had utilized my fon and took their picture...so i can put here...*girls would probably say they are cute* hehe...chucky is kinda cute too....but he a deadly killer doll weyyyyyyy .. hahaa ... what the heck...



p/s - im feeling much better now after being down for the past few days...thanks to you, you know who =)
