Eh hi

Omfg i've been so fucking lazy that I could have just stopped myself from typing this blog and go watch a few more series of 'Zhong Yi Zui Ai Xian'. haha.
I bought it this evening for $29. Original price was $32.90 but I didn't have to open my mouth for a bargain. Still wondering if 29 was a moderate price.....but 10 discs for $29 is already
value-for-money enough.

The main blog is not this. It's about a fermented-beancurd-eating-on-sunday-afternoon-with-mindy-and-her-relatives-experience.
Right after our smelly meal. One old man on a bicycle pillioning a load ran up to me.
"Lao Siong Bang Mang Yi Xia Lao Ren. Po Piah $2 Liang Ge."
I was actually quite taken aback by his sudden appearance inches away from my nose as I turned around to look at which poor old fellow is it that needed the daily dosage of foolish victims' monetary.
Unfortunately that day I was foolish.
Too profound? Nevermind you fools.
I asked myself one question:
"should I reject that old man's seemingly delicious popiah costing probably 20c and risk the possibility of damaging my image in front of mindy's mom and aunt and her husband along with four little cute kids?"

or

"should I be a good man (which in actual fact I am) and in front of the abovementioned VIP show them the compassionate side of me by donating $2 for 40c worth of popiah?"
I decided I was still hungry.
And took out a $10 note for the two popiah.
That fucker didn't have or rather didn't bother to look for a $1 coin and shortchanged me. I got back $7 and one more popiah. How agressive.
KNNBCCB.
Again, to save myself from portraying the not-so-compassionate but the tui-bi-san-chi self, I didn't give in much of a fight. In fact it was mindy's aunt who exploded, to no avail.
He sped off without another word.
I was, in fact, dumbfounded and stupified.
Try to be helpful but cheat me of $1.
$1 is very important to me. Could have bought 5 packets of tissue to blow my runny nose.
I'm still affected by this incident though i thought I've gotten over it.
What's the bloody world coming to.

I think actually it lies with my problem of saving face. It's a rather catch-22 situation.

What would you do if you were in my shoes?

Shortly after that Mindy and I saw a cowardly dog being fended off by a cat. Probably a female one. The dog wanted to have sex, no, have it's teeth into the cat, but backed off at the last moment. The cat showed no fear.
I should have been like the cat. And I like cats.

Enough of this.
Blogger sucks cos part of what I typed dissappeared for no apparent reason and I can't remember what I typed.

Goodnight.
