March 2007

there i was, hungry for food and McDonald’s came to mind. i ordered a value meal for takeaway and the cashier informed me i had to wait for 3 minutes for my burger. she told me to sit down.

and so i did. assuming she’d bring my order to me, i flipped through a copy of The Sun while waiting.

a while later, i got tired of waiting, and noticed someone who came after me collecting his takeaway order.

i got up and walked to the cashier, and i saw her gesture towards me while looking at her colleagues, as if to say, “ah, there she is!”

my wait felt like forever. i was definitely cranky.

“kenapa lama sangat?” i asked.
“ha? dah lama siap, cik!” she answered.

“tapi, kamu minta saya duduk dan tunggu, kan?”
“order cik dah lama siap!” she repeated.

forget speaking proper malay:
“you suruh saya duduk tunggu, saya duduk tunggu lah. sekarang, fries saya ni, dah sejuk lah, macam mana?” i retorted.

she just looked away.

what is wrong with the picture? was it a miscommunication? i didn’t think so.

fastfood service can be so crap at times.

These are the rules: Each player of this game starts out by giving 6 weird things about themselves. People who get tagged need to write in a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state the rules clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. After you do that, leave them each a comment letting them know you tagged them and to read your blog!

1. I calculate things constantly. It’s not just about finances, but when I see something I tend to view it in a different form by addition, substraction, multiplication or division. It happens practically all the time, whether I’m eating, talking or even sleeping.

2. I’ve partially lost my hearing in one ear. The problem with that is certain pitches seem to be amplified greatly when I hear them. Not fun when someone’s screaming a falsetto and it hits that right note.

3. I can’t swim, and I doubt I’ll ever be able to learn due to an interesting experience that I had when I was 15. Thank goodness it didn’t extend to a total aversion of water. Imagine being afraid of bathing, heh.

4. I’ve been the subject of a paternity test. The amusing part was that I was supposed to have fathered the child when I was 13. The results of the test were of course negative. No way I could’ve fathered a child at 13. If it was when I was 14 however… 😛

5. When I was much younger, 7-11 years old, I was skinnier then Rudy is now. Terrifying thought, neh?

6. I have an aversion of photographs being taken of me alone. In such situations I usually clam up, and there have been a few incidents where I’ve even broken out into a cold sweat when I’m being used as such a subject.

Too lazy to tag other people. Most of those I’d tag have already been tagged anyhow.
