Nicol David

Went for lunch today at the Batu Lanchang market and guess who I saw?

*as above*

Layping's brain: "Ooohhh!!! celebrity!!!!! in Penang!! in Market!!!"
Layping's brain: "Must hyperventilate and shriek. see celebrity wor!"
Layping's mouth: "Dad, there's Nicol David!" *pointing madly*

At that time, was still in the car and thus was saved acting like a complete doofus. After parking, saw her at the hawker centre. *started to hyperventilate again*

Dad: Shhhh...eat ur lunch.

Ah well. I missed my Only opportunity to gush over a celebrity. A celebrity in Penang.

If I had tried speaking to her, what would happen?

Me: Are you Nicol David?
Nicol David: "like...duh.."
Me: You are eating lunch here?
Nicol David: "like...duh..."

SEE??? Quite pointless to talk to her unless I am a Super/Mega/Huge/Etc Fan of hers and happen to always have pen and a picture of her at my disposal for an autograph.

and so yes, I paid my "char koay kak" more attention.

i saw nicol david once at the Pepsi Squash Centre back in 1999. she was on the phone with the News Straits Times. wow, it took us like five minutes after she passed us for us to realise she was Nicol David. Oh, so human!

but then again i remember when her sister was in our school. there was always a big hullabaloo whenever she came round. wahaha.
