Once in a while, while eating out with my parents, my dad will ask me to shift the table. Careful not to fall for the trick, I will always look down first. The million dollar question is what am I looking for?
Walking inside Tampines Mall, into a shop called "Aussino". My mum and I came across the word "bedskirt". My mum asked me what that was. I answered: "bedskirt 就是床的裙子。 bed 是床， skirt 是裙子， bedskirt 就是床的裙子！ 哦，原来床也要穿裙子。那个床就是女的，如果你的床是男的就不可以买。"
My dad told me that Singaporeans are fond of 2 things. The first being complaining, the second being joining in long queues for offers/free stuffs/etc. This spells trouble for me, I might lose my Singaporean status as I do not possess both attributes.
When I was eating at a food court, I saw a man daringly leaving his key on the table... He didnt use that to chope the place.. his friend had already left a bag there on the chairs.. So idk for what purpose the key serves.. Infering from what I had known from the show "国际交易所“, the key would have disappeared if the same situation happened in other countries... but thank goodness Sg's safe.
And there was this epic scene in class on Friday. It has got nothing to do with Rebecca Black, so you can stop your search for ear plugs. During economics tutorial, a group was tasked with a question. After writing the points on the board, the whole group went back to their seats to sit down. Then Mr Lim asked "Am I supposed to present?"
And today is College Day. It has drained our afternoon time. A time where could have been utilised for homework... much opportunity costs here. For these, the school should compensate us with "excuse homework". But obviously thats too good to be true. So we just had to bear through the whole thing. The principal address, the Guest of Honour address, the award ceremony, the performances..
Went to Bishan after the College Day Event with Yian and Bh. It is a historical moment for me, its a breakthrough. This is known as the Finale! This is also known as the Manhattan Experience. So the 3 of us walked in and sat down. And the order? 3 Fish and Chips. First came a soup. Its a type of sotong/squid soup.. the taste is fine and after much persuasion, I ate down the "meat". Thankfully, its seemingly tasteless. Then come the main dish. The fish.. something I've been struggling with for consumption all my 18 years of life. And today finally, we have seen a breakthrough. Thus, today is a day that is branded more important than anything else (including the death of Osama, the GRC breakthrough by Worker's Party and the reshuffling of the Cabinet.) And I don't feel any sense of vomitting, which is a good sign considering my natural psychological barrier. Yes! Finally I have finished an entire piece of fish meat. :) The best thing is that bh and I got a $10 waiver each from yian as he owed us a treat worth $10 for passing his Chinese A levels exam. So the amount payable was reduced to 7. bh offered to pay for me as my belated birthday gift. And that concludes the Manhattan experience. Oh, if you're wondering what is Manhattan experience, Manhattan Fish Market is the outlet we ate in. Imbalanced coined word? Maybe.
