I really need earplugs here.
Or perhaps a temporary blockage of my hearing sense.
All thanks to my mom's usual-banter-as-if-you've-killed-someone, and its really SO loud, I was awakened from my slumber, and I couldn't fall back asleep at all.

HELLO? I'm sick here?

All of you would think that my mom's 'ranting' is the usual day's parents nagging towards their children. But unfortunately, no. I didn't do anything to incur her wrath, my grandfather did.
I don't know what the hell went into this conversation but she was like shouting and almost towards screaming into the phone, during both grandfather's conversation and my aunt's (just to complain 'bout it). Sometimes I really wonder who's the one not respecting their parents or elders here.

And its so 'jialat' to the point where wimpy Ah Bengs can't compete with her.
HELLO? The phone uses a microphone mouthpiece! YOU. DON'T. HAVE. TO. SHOUT. Continuously for almost an hour. Where does she get all that energy?

If I was a third party of this fracas, I would first pity:
1. My Grandpa (despite whatever he did wrong to incur my mom's anger)
2. My aunt (okay, she has the habit of shouting into the phone like my mom even during normal conversations. Guess not.)
3. My brother (who just came back from work starting from 3am, hoping to get some quality sleep)
4. Me (I'm having a cold, I'm trying to sleep, and knowing the fact I'm not even the one that's the cause of this.)

I could just power up the laptop and record how damn loud her shouting is, even across a distance of 4 rooms (she was at the kitchen), but nah. Just imagine the power of her vocal chords, and never realising once in her life that she's ACTUALLY speaking into a receiver thats just barely 0.5cm large.

Oh, I forgot to pity the mouthpiece as well. Poor thing.

& my world is coloured by you.
