star-struck: "I thought I thaw a puthy tat"

Monday, September 12, 2005

Time check: 2010 p.m.

I was feeling lazy and lounging on my bed when my handphone rang. Farhan.

(In an excited and urgent tone)

Farhan: KAK!! Can you help me or not?

Me: CanNOT!!

Farhan: Please ah...

Me: What you want lah! (pissed off, thinking he wanted me to transfer some money again).

Farhan: I'm at Lau Pa Sat and behind me is Sylvester ok, you know the Singapore Idol that one. With his family having dinner... I wanna approach him and get his number. Now I need you to pretend to be his die-hard fan, so I can get his contact, for my business... Ok?

Me: WHAT?? You crazy ah! You think he wanna give you his hp number is it?? Siao...

Farhan: Belum cuba, belum tau... (the ever-positive person that he is) Eh please ahh kak... Favour eh please? A'an cuma ada satu kakak ajer...

Me: Chet! Tau nak baik-baik. Abeh selalu tu kau kentutkan aku depan tv tu apa!! And anyway I don't like him lah! Kalau Taufik takper jugak...

Farhan: Kak please ah... I got a business to run ok. It's not for you, but for me..

Me: TSK!! Han-NAH!! Faster cann!!

Farhan: Ok the acting starts now ahh... REady!! (To his friend: "Oi get ready pen and paper lah oii! My sister ready already!")

(I heard steps and moments later...)

Farhan: Hi Sylvester right... My name is Farhan. Can I have your autograph? It's actually for my sister cos she likes you...

(Awin rolled her eyes)

Sly: Oh is it? What's her name?

Farhan: Farzuin. That's F-A-R (bla bla) Can you speak to her? She's on the line now...

Sly: Hello?

Me: HELLO??? (squeals) SYLVESTER??? IS THAT REALLY YOU?? OH MY GAWWWDD!! (Ok this part I wasn't acting lorr, seriously. I was quite excited lah seyy.)

Sly: Eh hi how are you... This one your brother ah? Is he schooling or working?

Me: Mm he's studying and he works on weekends... Ok I'm really sorry to disturb your dinner with your family but I just couldn't pass off this chance!! AaaRGghh...!!! *giggles squeals giggles* (in my best I'm-smitten-by-you-baby scream)

Sly: Oh it's ok... I'm doing this for you. Thanks for your support. Ok you take care ahh...

Me: Ok bye Sly... (screams again)

A few minutes later, Farhan SMSed me "Thanks alot... I love you". Yeah ok. I concede. Quite sweet of him. I called him up and asked if he got Sly's number eventhough I know he won't get it. "No ah never get his number, but I got his email. At least something apaa..."

Tsk.

I can't believe I spoke to THE Sylvester on the phone.

My brush with the shooting star.
