on a happier note!

ok i know pam is gonna be just a little irritated at this but its still a non-emo post ok!

went to ARMY market with wen hui to get stuff. he needed L-torches, i wanted to get knee-guards(high-kneeling on asphalt isnt that comfortable, why do it? cause my legs go numb if i sit cross leg too long) and we both needed zip-locks casue the old man wants us to prep our field packs(dont know why, we arnt even army anymore!)

funny story bout the zip-locks, just happened to walk past this shop and this guy asks the lady how much were the medium size zip-locks and she says they were $1 for 5. i thought that was a pretty good deal. the guy just says ok and walks off(in a relatively rude manner) so naturally the sales lady is quite ticked off and says to me and her other customer:

Lady: wah, some people dont even want $1 FOR 5. so cheap still want to go look for cheaper. this is army market not a shopping center
Arrogant man: HEY! dont talk to your customers like that!

and he walks off. and i, the other customer and the lady all exchange 'what the hell?' looks. must be an officer(too young to be srg major and specs arnt usually that cocky)

that aside, we ate chicken rice accompanied by laksa gravy for lunch n gulped down (relatively) good sugar cane juice(before shopping). after shopping we were supposed to go get glutinous rice balls but the shop was closed so we skipped ahead to desserts. wen hui had almond soup thing n the belgian waffles caught my eye. they even had european biscuit ice cream(tasted like digestives) and they cut up the waffle n let you dip it in their chocolate sauce(hi mom, im getting a lecture as soon as you see this right? love you!)

and we both HAD to have goreng pisang. and interestingly the store had batter fried mushrooms(those long white ones with small 'helmets') was too full to have the goreng pisang so gave it to dad for tea(ironically he was making a pot of tea when i got home)

and yes mom, i got the oranges. =) think aunty is out so will wait for her to come home to give the hamper.
