the story of a girl and her pink obsession

once upon a time, there lives a girl who has an obsession of the color pink. she practically lives in a pink space with pink items all around her. she painted her office wall pink.. even painted her work table pink. she also has a vast collection of pink colored pens, pink candles, pink toothbrush, pink clock, pink..pink..pink! one could go dizzy just staring at her collection of pink items.

then one fine day, as the girl was surfing the internet to find more pink inspiration, she chanced upon a beautiful picture of a pink canon calculator. she was instantly in love! determined to have one for herself, she called the company that advertised the pink calculator; but to her disappointment, it was out of stock. not wanting to give up, she called another company that sells stationery items online - another disappointment.days go by. calls after another, emails and more emails was sent out: all came back with hurtful news.

as a girl who wouldn't stop at nothing (for pink), she called her brother as a last resort.

"you HAVE to help me!"

"what's wrong?"

"go walk around low yatt and hunt for a pink calculator for me. canon brand."

and thus, the journey began. her brother would hunt around klang valley for a pink canon calculator. he found a pink one, but it was a giant supermarket brand. and it wasn't that pretty. he sent the girl a text along with a photo of the calculator... of course, it wasn't a canon, so the girl despised it.

back home, the girl scavenges all around town. from one stationery store to another, hunting for that beloved pink canon calculator. to her dismay, NONE of the stationery stores in kk sells them.

days turned into weeks. weeks turned into months.. still no signs of a pink canon calculator. not even ebay has it.

and just as the girl was about to give up, a whatsapp picture message came through her phone:

there sits a beautiful, sexy pink canon calculator in the hand of her brother.

IT'S A PINK CANON CALCULATOR!

"you'll have it when i get home this christmas" was the message that came along with it. a short, simple message that brings happiness and total sadness at the same time, for christmas is such a long wait. a 2 weeks worth of wait!

xxxx 2 weeks later xxxx

her brother made her the happiest girl on earth!

xxxx present time xxxx

she now has a pink canon calculator:

she also has another one, a smaller version of pink canon calculator that she also made her brother to get her:

....actually, she has more than that:

ha!

the girl found another pink canon calculator in one of the store that sells christian books! (she believes it was in kolombong? oh my, her sense of direction is really THAT bad!) imagine her feelings when she found that the christian bookstore had those pink canon calculators all these while!! even her fiance made fun of her and said, "when all is lost, seek Jesus. he has the pink canon calculator!" -_-

so she bought another TWO.

in total, she actually has FOUR pink canon calculators..... but her mother made her give away one to her favorite baker (who happens to be her friend) because her mother said, (i quote) "you have too many calculators! and beside, sharing is caring. christmas is about giving and sharing.."

so she shared her joy of pink canon calculator with the baker and the girl lived happily ever after with her 3 pink canon calculators.  but there's no saying that she'll stop at 3. she might buy another one..because, (in her words) "kurang asam betul! time kita cari berabis, semua kedai tiada jual. sudah kita beli jauh-jauh di kl... tetiba banyak pulak di kk!"

The End.
