superHUNGRYwoman
early in the morning, i have NO breakfast at my table!
mom woke up and said she had these 1 for 1 coupons at tampines mall. se we went there. (DUH) there was buy a pau get an egg tart free coupon, but 6 bucks worth of cake and pay 3 bucks coupon, buy 2 bucks worth (8 chocolate covered or 16 cinnamon sugar coated) of mini donuts and get 16 more sugar coated ones fre coupon, and 1 for 1 mee siam/laksa/mee rebus coupons. BOY WAS I HAPPY!
so, despite my FUNGAL INFECTION, i walked 102938219031 KM (go figure.) and reached the pau stall. wel, well, well, what'dya know, there's a whole line of grandma's a kiasu aunty's in line, poking their noses into everything they can. as i didn't want to walk another 50 km, i decided to stand and queue up for the paus while my mum went to buy the cakes.
so there i am, moving 1 step every 10 minutes, when this HELLA NOISY AUNTY appears behind me. 'WAH. SO LONG AH THE QUEUE!' she laments as soon as she lines up, then she pokes her head over my right shulder to see what the counter lady is doing. our queue is so long, it ends up cutting into the space of the cake shop's, and this pink shirt aunty (we shall call her f4g for convenience) starts scrutinizing the cakes beside her, pushing me each time she turns, so i move a small step forward. then she gets bored and gets back to swaying in the backround trying to see how the counter lady is doing.
THEN, this black shirt KIASU AS HELL aunty joins the queue. (we shall name her gh3y for convenience) now, f4g starts talking to gh3y and they make conversation pretty well. i can't be bothered listening but they talk so loud i can't help but.
gh3y:'WAH, WHAT'S GOING ON HERE, NICE AH, THE PAU?'
f4g:'i dunno leh, but buy 1 get egg tart. very worth it.'
gh3y:'wah, need koh-pawn anot ah?'
f4g:'of course ah! if not then they no need to do business already.. only 100 coupons accepted. after that cannot already.'
gh3y:'ohh.. then the cake shop dun have ah? why no one line up?"
f4g:'got, but cakes not nice.' < - - - I START HATING HER HERE.
gh3y:'oh, but my child likes. i buy for him. where to get the koh-pawn ah?'
f4g:'oh, you go upstairs and take from information counter. < - - - SHE BUMPS INTO ME HERE.
gh3y:'oh. thanks ah.'
so gh3y leaves the queue and my ears are allowed rest. 10 minutes later...
f4g:'eh you're back ah!' < - - - WELL, DUH!
gh3y:'ya. i wanna go buy cake. which one nice ah?'
f4g:-(starts pointing and moving around) 'AH! this kaya one nice.'
gh3y:'ok, somemore?'
f4g:'the chocolate one'
f4g:'the durian one.' < - - - THIS IS WHERE SHE BUMPS INTO ME AGAIN.
ME:'EXCUSE ME! CAN YOU PLEASE STOP BUMPING INTO ME?! -stares-
f4g: -stares at me in shock-
ME: -stares at at her with HATRED- ..i turn around after waiting in futility for an apology
f4g(to gh3y): 'aiyo, bu xiao xing de lah.'
then my mom comes back from gettin her cakes, and starts chatting with me. OBVIOUSLY, SHE'S RELATED TO ME RIGHT?! WHICH LADY WOULD GIVE YOU A CAKE AND START CHATTING WITH TOU ON THE STREET?!.
-f4g and gh3y stare intensely at mum-
i don't know cos i can't see. mum grins at them and explains her relation to me and after 20 seconds, slow and retarded finally get it and continue picking their cakes. just like the end of the song, here's the end of my post. CAN REN DE FAN LE CHUO. hahaha.. i have no idea. but i know chuo means wrong.
