Something has gone wrong with my Pokri! He has not been playing with me for the last few days which was alright with me as I was not keeping well and not in a mood to play. But, I am alright today and wanted his company. However, he was not to be seen. He is usually fooling around in my bed. I keep throwing him out. Then he will be lying flat on the floor until my amma or achan put him back. Today I did not find him in my bed or out. Guess, where I found him? He is sitting on the top of our TV with a soccer ball! screaming and doing all sorts of crazy things during the Argentina-Nigeria game. He appears to be a Messi fan. I don't want to mess around with him till he is back on earth.
I was also working on my screaming capabilities for a different reason. I have learnt from my daycare (I am not sure whether I worked out it on my own in that learning environment or got trained by a daycaremate!) that screaming gets you attention. In fact, the attention you get is directly proportional to the intensity of your screaming. I did put this knowledge to good use in the daycare. I do want to use it at home also. But, it has not been a big success here yet. My parents seem to have gone stone deaf to my screaming, though they seem to hear each others whisperings perfectly well. When I try it at breakfast time, my parents fill my screaming mouth with porridge and they win there. When I try it at toilet time, I end up completing the act quickly to my parents glee.
I need to work on screaming loud and thwarting my parents intentions ;-). The best place to reflect on these and train is the daycare.
