we had a quick getaway in HK last weekend but it
was a really short trip so not much shopping was done.
all we did was visit our client, walked around in Mongkok area
and had lunch at my fav 茶餐厅 (though i really smell bad after)
Anyhow, here's a simple equation:
Fried maggie noodles+ice lemon tea=A Very Happy Irene.
=)
its incredible how 出前一叮 can taste so good.
think i can live on that for 1 month w/o gettin sick of it. haha.
anyway, i've always thought HK's standard of living is almost that of SG's
but aft doin a rough breakdown, i realised i've miscalculated!
Fried (INSTANT)noodles with 4 mid-wings: HKD38
2 glasses of ice lemon tea: HKD14/each
Total: HKD66 = SGD13.20
13buckeroos for lunch in a normal 茶餐厅 alias sg-style kopitiam??
damn, im really startin to sound like a stinkin' miser!
*sheepish*
cant help it when im poor alright?!
... ...
and to add on to the culture shock...
here's doughnuts goin for sgd2 each.
(yes, the ones that everyone seems to be gettin all hyped up over)
2bucks each?! like the 13dollar lunch isnt enough to make me broke eh?

so ya, i finally found Krispy Kreme,a new branch smacked right in the middle of Mongkok.
cant deny they look really yummilicious sittin' on the shelves.
i'd really like 1 of each, but figured it'd be abit over.
(oh, 2bucks each, i'd be a pauper in no time)
and there was a long Q behind me, didnt wana seem like a dork la.
ended up with the pretty-lookin' neopolitan, choco and original glazed.
anyway, the conclusion is- stick to the original glazed ones.
the neopolitan and choco is so sweet, u can get diabetes just eating 1.
i was that close to gettin a sugar-induced spasm aft takin the neopo.
this morning so if u dont have a sweet tooth, dont be ambitious like me.
ok that aside, i have alot to rant bout recently.
sigh.
u know how stupid pple really can piss the shit outta u?!
Are these pple really no-brainers or have they not learn to use it?
Everyday i tell myself not to be so mean,
everyday i tell myself to have patience, to tolerate,
but everyday i find myself in a position whereby i'm ready to kill.
And the one who annoys me the most, i see her more than my own reflection.
I see her in the morning, i see her during work, and i see her aft work.
How can anyone be such an eye sore?
Is there such thing as an ear sore coz even her voice aggravates me.
ok, here's the amazing thing..
when one has absolutely NO EQ, dont expect her to know u dont like her,
and dont even expect her to know how much u just want her to buzz off.
i know i sound like a bloody bitch and i honestly dont quite enjoy it
but this person,is seriously making my life a mutherfuckinbitch right now.
i can go on all day ranting bout this person but it aint gona change anything.
until she fucks outta my life, life here isnt gona get any better.
i wish i could grab her by her neck, and tell her to wake up her fuckin idea.
but honestly, the probability of her gettin my point, is close to Zero.
Sometimes i tink i might be over-reacting, but i just cant help it.
Learning to live and living with such pple, really is a pain in the ass.
Maybe it isnt that bad havin a low EQ afterall.
At least u wouldnt have to care bout anyone's feelings,
u wouldnt have to care if by sayin or doing something, u'd put someone else in a difficult position,
you dont need to tink before u talk,
bottomline is, you can just shut off Sensitivity Mechanism.
If someone takes away all my EQ, i tink i could be a happier person.
coz i can finally fuck her up, and not worry bout puttin him in a spot.
