Little Did I Know..

When my girl-friend asked me for my Barbie
I gave it to her
Little did I know
I would get it back in two pieces.

When my neighbor asked me for my bicycle
I gave it to him
Little did I know
I would have a punctured tyre.

When my mate asked me for my brand new eraser
I gave it to him
Little did I know
I would never get it back.

When my brother asked my for my chalk pieces
I gave it to him
Little did I know
I would never see them again.

When my maid offered to clean my room
I let her do it
Little did I know
I would find my piggy bank in pieces.


When my close friend needed help
I stuck by his side
Little did I know
I would be betrayed.


When my parents taught me to say “No”
I refused to listen
Little did I know
I would regret it now.

To come to think of it, kids during their playtime can actually teach you a lot and so can monkey bars and slides! Here are some instances that got me thinking: The oh-so-tall slide - Kids are hell scared to get on top of the slide and are terrified that they might tumble down. But when its quite successful the fi...

It's been a while...

It's been a couple of years since I stopped writing. My excuse is going to be the same old - no time. Was busy hunting for my first job and getting married. And here I am; almost three years at work and one and a half years of being married, I've decided to make the time. You should expect a post or two a month. Watch out for the space for more. Cheers!
