Justine vs ADHD kid

and Justine lost badly....

the past few weeks or so ive helping out at this center for mentally challenged kids. just to pass my time. most of the time, i spend the hours sitting down and taking care of their thrif store and do not really come into contact with the children.

but today due to a staff who called in sick, they were short handed and asked me to help look after the kids. there are a whole lot of them with each of them having different types of pathology (cerebral palsy, down's syndrome, autism, mental retardation, ADHD).

so there i was, standing in front of the class like a kindergarden teacher. one hand at my hip and the other holding this long ass rotan. im supposed to make sure everyone does their work properly without causing any trouble. with the rotan in my hand, i felt like the character Wyatt Earp (played beautifully by Kevin Costner) and the class was the town Tombstone. and everyone will cower in fear of me.

yeah...right!!

there was this boy with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactive disorder) who needless to say, was very hyperactive and just couldnt sit still. i had to scold him a few times so that he would sit back down. at one point he just got pissed and said, "You bloody Fat uncle!! Fatty fatty fatty!! hope you die you fatty!!"

nabe...

later when i was walking pass him, he suddenly came up to me and started rubbing my tummy and he went, "ooohhh.....big baby inside."

KNN... suddenly i dont feel like Wyatt Earp anymore. more like Jack Black in Nacho Libre.

and to top of a great day, another kid with ADHD suddenly came up from no where and grabbed my balls and squeezed it before running away squealing in delight.
