a day with my mom.
I love going out with my mother, and always do because I love my mother lots. X) So if you have been asking me out, and I turned you down for two simple reasons.
1) I am busy. Which is true, I am always BUSY; cause I have a habit keep myself preocupied, be it watch dramas, go online, play games, sleeping, eating, updating my blogstore... I like to keep my mind working at all times. So I ended up tired like hell...
2) This is straightforward. I don't LIKE YOU. And I don't want to go out with you. Imagine hanging out with someone you -.- for hours, I rather kill myself...
Don't worry, most of the time when I said I'm not free, it belongs to the first reason. I really am not free, I speak the truth!
Anyway I can't stop your mind from moving to the wrong direction... If I don't like you, do you think I will post this on my blog and let you read? Will I even allow you to read my blog? Uhm, maybe I am lying to one or two people ba.. That's all.
I was down with cold and sore throat, so I left work after one hour of physical presence in office. Then I decided to meet my mom, who just finished her check-up at sk polyclinic. She called to tell me that "male doctors are still the best, daring people." and I was erm...
To be an excellent cake baker next time, you need all the guide books and recipes you can learn from. And my mom found this examination guide for baking from library, it was thick and heavy, but new. Imagine I had to lug the grocery and books all the way for 3 hours... Inhumane!
Then we went to see Best to check out her dream egg mixer, which is kenwood brand and costs $1120. Other than it's made completely of stainless steel, I don't see why it costs a thousand for just a household appliance! Nuts... But now, I just need to get a small and affordable mixer... And my mom refused to lower her expectations. What a dork. $1120 is not even my monthly salary la.
But one thing good about my mom is her aunty bargaining style. She used it in Bluemax yesterday. What a joke. They were having a sale for korean dramas, as usual, 3 for $30. Then I told my mom, if you want watch any show, tell me, I buy for you. (actually I did that to make up for Mother's Day, I treated my mom lunch too. =D) One trolley is categorized as 3 for $30, containing older shows; the other trolley contains newer shows, but costs between $10 to $20++. Well, my mom being an aunty, she began to bargain with the store attendant. She spotted one title, think is spring waltz, if not wrong, from the second trolley and asked whether can mix several shows from two trolleys. Naturally, the helper said no. But my mom refused to believe, and kept 'arguing' with her. Why cannot!
I was .... But inside me, I want to burst out laughing. Cause if the person is me, I would do the same way; act innocent and ask these questions. No harm asking what.. After hassling and pondering, my mom finally chose three titles, from the first trolley. tsktsk.. my wallet burnt quite a hole, but never mind. Who ask it's my mom... She happy can le.
So, end of story. I spotted a red jacket from Hangten I want to buy. Apologies if you think I'm a dork going for these aunty brands, cause I go for designs and not famous brands de. Hrrmp. And I checked Bluemax yesterday, they deducted 10 dollars from "the Devil" original price le! Hooray, now it costs $29.90. I shall wait for a few more weeks, see if it drops to $19.90! yippee!
The devil! devil! devil!
Before I forget...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOAN!
(it's in your favourite blue, somemore! XD)
