Rockstar: Mum. I need help with this. Help me take it out faster.
Me:?? What’s wrong with it?
Rockstar: The wheels are the wrong way. See? Lines. Not circles.
Me: (feeling lazy – not to mention it’s actually this tiny diagram in the manual of the hub caps, he’d actually put them in late the previous night, some with the lines facing out and some with the circles, before falling asleep with it half-finished in his hand… I was the one who noticed they didn’t all match and so while tidying it all away had changed them all to circles) They work fine, don’t they? You’re a giant fusspot.
Rockstar: Yup. I know that, already.
(And of course I end up having to change everything back to lines <grumble>)

Rockstar: Every time (classmate) sees (other classmate), he says “Hello, Worm.”
Me: Uh… Are they friends?
Rockstar: Yeah. The (other classmate) will say “Mister, mister, mister.” Mister Worm. <pause, looking a little proud> I get “Mister Worm” too!

Me: Are you being funny when you say “Why like that Haaa”? (Manglish/ Singlish. Recently, if I forget to get his water with dinner, or can’t find some Lego component of his, he will go “Why like that Haaa”?)
Rockstar: Always.
Me: When did you decide “Haaa” is being funny?
Rockstar: Some school friends were making fun when someone said it in school. It’s not the right way to speak…

Next up… Rockstar and Friend go Artjamming!
Artjamming is fun, fun, fun! For a moment there, I thought you superimposed two photos of Rockstar. His friend does look like him a little from that angle.
