prata scam!

this post is specially created for LING!
and dedicated to her :)
i already wrote it asap...
immediately after i reached home,
i switched on the com and came into my account,
using my fastest speed,
i created this post! haha


met up with jinxian, jinrui, martin and elaine for dinner at v'llage at heerens.
it was nice to meet up after such a long time.
i realised we haven met up for like 1 month or more!
but we still nv run out of topics and issues to make fun of the twins! haha
we went for a drink at the ice cream cafe at cine and had a wonderful time laughing and chatting!
think the place is called buttercups.


anyway..the real story goes...
on 6thJan'2007, a saturday night,
ling, boon, wei and fanny had the urge to go to the movies.
without fail, they met up at yishun GV and watched blood diamonds!
a very nice show! if not interrupted by some uh hem inconsiderate friends.
after the movie..they shared a cab to wei's hse to collect his car.
In the meanwhile, everybody could not decide where to have supper.
nobody wanted to make the decision either.
thus, wei suggested jalan kayu prata,
coz he craved for ice cream prata!
as suggested, they went there for supper!
the order list goes like this:

1. fanny: 1 egg prata + 1 teh peng = $1.50 + $1.20 = $2.70
2. Wei: 1 plain prata + 1 paper prata + teh tarik = $0.60 + $1.50 + $0.80 = $2.90
3. Ling: 1 paper prata with a few drops of honey + green tea = $5.00 + $1.30 = $6.30
4. Boon: 1 cheese prata + 1 chocolate prata + 1 green tea = $2.80 + $4.00 + $1.30 = $8.10


Notice the magical price difference higlighted in red!
with an additional few sprinkles of honey on your prata,
you will actually hafta pay $3.50 more!
ling could not take it lying down,
so she questioned the person who delivered the food.

conclusion: nobody knows why the few magical drops of honey cost $3.50!


ling felt scam-ed the whole night!
all the way from the moment she found out about the price till the minute she reached home.
i thought she might have lost sleep over it.
who knows?
especially when it happened to poor people like US!


i felt bad earlier on, after the movie too.
coz i discovered i did not inform mommy that i will be home late.
i took for granted that boon will tell her since she went to thong yi's house.

SORRY MUMMY!!

in the end i discovered i had 2 messages and 5 missed calls from her.
apart from that, she called ling, wei and even elaine!
oh no..i feel so bad!
ISUCK!! :(


anyway, out of point for a moment..
i think i have aged.
i dont crave clubbing outings and parties anymore..
to the extent that i dont even feel like getting out of my house during the whole 1 month holiday.
i dont like to talk on the phone.
i dont look forward to outdoor activities and gatherings.
however....
i crave cousins dinner and activities.
i enjoy mj marathons with cousins.
i love yummy bfast followed by a long snoozy sleep! (even though i know it's unhealthily fattening)
i totally dig dinners with cousins! sushi buffet~
and small chats over coffee..


i have become such a family person!
great change i thought..
but good things really dont last!
school is starting tmr.
BOO! YUCKS! SUCKS!
and i will be loner this sem without elaine around :(
but this being my final sem,
i hope nothing goes wrong.
and i can graduate in july'2007! :)
yeah!! looking forward to end of studying life.


but first and foremost...
looking forward to exciting cruise trip on 12th jan' 2007 first!
followed by chinese new yr!
then holidays!
and where my greatest & concentrated excitement lies : my grad trip!!
hong kong gotta be the first stop!!
i so wanna try out all the good food there and visit all the fun places!!!
wei volunteered to be the tour guide! FOC!!
and i totally trust that we will have hell lotsa fun with this tour guide who travelled to hk 5 times!
hopefully i will bump into my favourite justin! haha


i'm tired..
goodnight!
cousins rule! &
justin rock! :)
