sai-koon...

all of us have, at some point in our life, experienced that kinda feeling where we were caught in the situation where we were rushing to find a toilet... and our stomach were churning and growling like there's no tomorrow. and whenever it growls and churns, the feeling can be so so so so bloody uncomfortable. you know, the kinda feeling where your stomach is painful like hell, and yet you have to try your very hardest to force constrict your desperate asshole. and occasionally, the asshole seemed to have a mind of its own and where the feeling of the sphincter giving way is so real and so near. well, in the english language, there is no one phrase or word that actually describe this feeling. but in the hokkien language, we call it "sai koon" or translated literally to "shit boiling". haha!

i had that feeling whenever i have cold soya milk, you char kuih (fried fritters) for breakfast, and downing everything with a glass of piping hot coffee black. yup, cold + white and hot + black is one hell of super duper potent but for the taste, well, i supposed it is worth it. heh heh. and that was what i felt yesterday after breakfast. and it was a super solid omg one for that matter. i had just down my last mouthful of food and i felt my stomach growling. oh oh this is a little too fast right? i thought, i better get home soon. and off i went. when i started my car, the growling and the churning came on. ouch ouch ouch. control control control. mind over body. mind over body. i chanted to myself in my head. and after a super solid painful tummy ache, the wave of contraction passed. whew... i continued driving. less than 2 minutes later, the contraction came again... aiyoh... macam going to give birth! control control control... and the contractions went off again. i could even hear the bubbles churning in my tummy. and darn! before i could count to 10, the churning started again! arghhhh! why was it that traffic lights always turn red when the churning starts! damned! and before i knew it... the %*%^(*^%$%^%& construction worker had to halt traffic to let construction vehicles enter the road from the worksite! of all times! arghhh! although the distance from market home was the same, the drive home yesterday felt forever! 

and when i finally arrived at my condominium, of all times, there was a visitor and the security guard had to stop the car for a security check! wahhhh... shit coming out already! damned damned damned! i didn't even double check if i parked my car straight or if i had locked my car. i just ran to the lift, press the lift and held on to my stomach. growl growl growl it went. and i rush to my door and then to my toilet. sapphie was so excited yet confused as to why i did not pat her when i entered the house. i just ran, and as i ran, i stripped off my pants and as i did all these, i was desperately trying to stop the shit from exploding! hahahaha!

and finally, i sat on the throne and...

the feeling was simply - priceless!

whew!
