muchie sheepies

wah today was more eating again. stuff and stuff till want to bao(4) liao... after service today went to peer's house. haha quite nice of him to just spontaneously open up his place for us to invade. :) some of us suddenly had a craving to eat durians so we stopped by one of the durian stalls in geylang to ta(2) pao(1) 6 durians to peer's place. the proper food was bought from this palce called 'fatty weng' which is supposedly very famous. well, the food wasn't really tt good lar. better than average but not spectacular. we ordered 2 packets each of ee mee, hor fun, fried rice, black hokkien mee, mee goreng. alot lor, cause each was $5 worth.

i think i should skip lunch tml.

oh we had dinner over tv and tok kok. the 'swan pagaent' was on and it was really quite disturbing to zy and ws looking at all the contestants. haha, ws also made alot of mean comments lor, but i shall nto disclose them here for his benefit. but really lar, some look rather unatural. a little expressionless too in fact. aiyoh, ws can be SO superficial at times. haha.

oh the durians also got story one. cause the pple who went to buy the durians were me, lz and zy. zy and myself were just standing one corner whilst lz shen(1) fu(4) zhong(4) ren(4) to bargain with the durian seller and get as many durians as possible for the lowest price. i was there to pay; zy was there to try to look pretty... erm and also to carry the durians. haha.

on reaching peer's place lz suddenly commented tt the durians were 3 for $20 ones, should be quite good. zy and i then retorted tt they're not, cause we were sure tt they were the 1 for $5 ones. and we were debating with lz when i suddely realised tt she was RIGHT. they couldn't have been $5 ones cause we paid $30 for 5 (plus 1 free making the total 6), which meant tt each was $6 after bargaining.

can u imagine tt, getting taught a lesson in simple mathematics by lz?? :P how humbling.

anyway the durians were a disappointment, cause some were watery and some just tasteless. i mean... haiyoh. and lz was happily pinching at every durian testing them and doing QC before we accepted EACH durian. so much so for qc. we didn't even finish all of the durians and just GAVE UP on the watery ones.

oh yes, and i learnt something new today -- tt when u eat durians u have to eat mangosteens after tt to counter the heatiness of the durians. wah u can imagine how many i ate after tt. tml better not have any new pimples 'pokpok' come out lor. it may be worth mentioning tt the mangosteen theory was another one of lz's theories. haha. so amusing. :)

today was a splendid day too cause i received more christmas presents from friends. chocolates from junxiong; card and more chocolates/sweets from freddy; card and book from peer; and something mysterious from anil which i haven't opened yet, still in my bag; cookies from mingli; card from gan. haha yup, thanks guys!!! really appreciate it. sheesh, i didn't even get any stuff back for them. so paiseh. :) but of course *ahem* they all said it was ok *ahem*.

*grin*

it has been a wonderful christmas.
