Soil Farmer | Go to post ➜

I was asked to accompany my grandmother to do some weeding in my aunt's garden at 9.30am in the morning. Half way through, my back started to ache and I was restless.

Needless to say, I started playing with the soil. Since it rained early in the morning, the soil was soft and had a play-doh consistency. What was known as soil soon became a ball, from there, a ball became part of a soil man (snow man), and later on, it modified into a farmer ???

My little cousin was so excited about it, she asked me to make a female farmer for the soil man. I tried, however I do not know how to form a female body. So I said to her :" Why do you want to let a woman suffer? " So~ I made a brother/worker/(gay lover ??? lol)/son [whatever your creativity allow you to think of it] for the 1st soil man.

Moving on with the farmer story, my little cousin had another request - make a cow for the farmer. I replied :"Siao arh ! Very Chim leh...(Nonetheless) I'll try to do it" Yet again, I cannot fulfil her request. BUT ! I made an animal aka cow/dog/cat/donkey/horse/sheep [whatever your creativity allow you to think of it].

My little cousin's excitement level was at its peak now. She asked me to make a house for the farmer's family and the animal. It was noon, my back ached, I was hungry by the time I finished shaping the animal. So I picked up a rock and said, this is the house, and I placed it behind the farmer. That was it. I stopped here and went for lunch.
