HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY ZAHIDAH !!

At Random*

i'm actually eating fish with rice and blogging at the same time. yep. cool or what ?

i'm like so freaking hungry these days, God knows why. and it's not whatever that you're thinking. hah.

know what i've been eating during lunch for the past almost-two weeks ?

Bee Hoon Hongkong. my childhood favourite dish la ! and i'm not sick of eating it everyday cos it's ta-ta-ta-tasty-tasty~ heh.

well, i'm what they call a Creature Of Habit. me and Change, don't get along very well. so yea, i'd rather stick to the traditionals.

anywaaaaays, i'm here to blog about an eventful weekday, today's yesterday a.k.a Thursday.

first, i got approached by a weirdo. and then at work, got tangled up in a misunderstanding involving a handphone.. and a bangla.

i was on a late train to work (cos my shift changed to 9.15am-5.45pm to accommodate the increased patient load) when i saw this really familiar face. it was one of my bestie's "stalker". and it so happened that he saw me too, and got into the same Goddamned cabin.

i was freaking out already, still remembering the incidents involving him and my bestie. err.. let's not go into that, shall we ?

as i was saying, we were in the same cabin and as usual, i tried to look cool, staring beyond the window and he was standing just a few metres in front of me. at the corner of my eye, i realised that he kept looking at me la. don't get me wrong, i'm not what Malays call, "shiok sendiri" k. he really was looking at me in a funny way.

shoots shoots shoots.

he was still looking at me funny.

crap.

i think i know why he looked at me funny. i've seen him 1000x in school before. and that's probably why he approached me.

not the, hello-how-are-you approach. it was the wave-in-the-face (he literally did that, ok !) approach.

i was so freaked, though moments before i had a feeling that he'd talk to me sooner or later.

crap.

him: "you're from TP, right ?"
me: "ah.. yah"
him: "no wonder. you look really familiar"
me: "err. ok"

and i shut up until the cabin emptied, and i moved waaaay in.

i know ! i was harsh, right ?! but heck la. if you were me and you know exactly who he was, you would have ignored him totally. at least i replied. heh.

FREAKY LAR OK.

what if i really didn't know him ? i'd think, he's my stalker. hoho ! scary !

so, note to self: never and i mean, never.. take the late train. even if your shift starts later.

ok, now to bangla incident.

this happened at work, nearing the end of the day. this bangla dude wanted to claim his MC to certify his absence from work. since he hasn't paid the remaining 17bucks+ bill, he couldn't. but he didn't have enough money. so he went home or somewhere to get the money.

when he left, a cashier-colleague of mine saw a Siemens mobile phone on the counter, near to where he stood. so she thought it was his, and placed in the basket together with the medicine and passed it to me. when i saw the phone, i was like, "what ? he left his handphone too ?"
and my colleague said, "yah, it was at the counter."

so i, figured it was his too, placed inside the plastic bag containing his medicine.

my another colleague, Bahari, went.. "wah, Siemens handphone sia.. but $17 bill cannot pay. bluff sia"

i couldn't agree more. i mean, the handphone was so sleek and cool, ok ! surely he could pay the meagre $17.

about an hour later, the bangla came back with the money. after i dispensed his medicine...

me: "wah, your phone also leave here ah."
bangla: *smiling but looking blur at the same time*
me: *knows that he didn't understand what i said*
Nicholas (the cisco dude): *takes the phone and show it to him* "ah, your handphone ah. don't anyhow leave it."
bangla dude: *blur face* "huh ? handphone ?"
Nicholas: "yah. nah" *passes him the handphone*
bangla dude: "this one not my handphone ! this one, my one" *takes out HIS handphone from pocket*

us: GASPS.

turned out, it was someone else's phone la sia !!

hahahaha. funny right ?! funny la !! you should have seen the bangla dude's blur face when he pulled out his handphone ! FREAKING FUNNY LAR.

and our reaction to the shocking truth. HAHA !

i was laughing la ! though it was a serious matter. hoho. couldn't help it. i guess sometimes, i laugh at the wrong time. hehe.

Xue Yin ! you should have been there la ! i bet we'd be the only ones laughing our butts off, man ! see ! who ask you to take leave this week ?! hahaa.

anyhooos, Nicholas called the mother of the owner (by searching for the number in the phone) and it was all settled. phew.

and we really salute that bangla dude, man. he was very honest. i doubt that any other bangla or Singaporean would do the same. well, ok.. i would. heh. *winks* but i bet there's some out there would immediately claim that the handphone is theirs if the incident occured. shish. caya sama lu ah, bangla !

hoho.

ok, despite the "events" happening, i'm so bored at work. Xue Yin took leave (grrrr !) and i was left with nobody to talked to.

ok, i lied. there are great people there as well. but not one whom i can really open up to, ya know ? haven't warm up to them, yet. but they have been great colleagues :)

i want to know Xue Yin's current story !! the SI dude ! wooohooo~ oi, remember my "motive" ok ! must ask him if he's still in contact with Taufik. HAHAHAHA.

ok, i was kidding.

oh yeaaa. i'm going to be on leave the WHOLE OF NEXT WEEK, PEOPLE ! weeee !! i think i'll swing by TP for the open house and see those sad juniors, still schooling. hahah !

ok, actually i envy them. here's the bloody truth: I MISS SCHOOL.

yep. i miss the lectures (i'm sane, really.), my poly mates, the picnics we had during lectures, the note-taking (again, i am sane.), the slacking at the study tables during break, the cafeterias, the library.. everything la !

sobs.

i want to be a kid, again !

and that was at.. 8:13 PM ·
