Tuesday 22-05-2007

Woke up early in the morning at 9.20am ?
rushed off to China Embassy at 10.40am.
its definitely not my day!


First incident:
Took a cab to the Embassy, ok my main point is about this Taxi Uncle. Upon knowing that i am going to China Embassy, he started talking to mi in the veri cheena accent mandrain. OK out of politeness i entertained him abit here and there, talked about wat i think of Singapore as foreigner and property market.

DAmnit. It started raining when i reached the Embassy and when i took out my $50 note to pay for the cab fare,

Uncle said : 'i got not small changes leh, do u have small changes?'
Bao said : 'dun have, i would like to give u small changes if i do have small changes'
Uncle : 'iya, i really dun have small change to give u back leh xiao mei'

To think that the cab fare was $11.20, I MUST BE MAD if i asked him to keep the changes RIGHT? so..

Bao : 'Then how?'

the conversation was paused for while, but might you, i was in a hurry to enter the embassy because it was already closing.
Uncle : 'You pass the money to mi at night lo, at CCK. i stay there as well.'
ok i was taken aback, but carried on..
Bao : 'Orh..ok lo, but how to pass u?'
Uncle : 'i give u my number then u call mi when u reached home, ok?'
Bao : '.......ok. give mi your number, i am in a hurry.'

then this Taxi Uncle started to scratch his head and went to contact list to look for HIS OWN NUMBER. HELLO? its his own number that he's searching from the contact list leh. If he cant even remember his own number then how he's gonna remember the map of Singapore?

Uncle : 'i cant remember my number leh, why not u give mi your number and i call you.'
Bao : 'ok lor.' (showing a veri 'black' face and told him my number VERY VERY unwillingly out of no choice.)

then he called on the spot and said : 'your phone never ring leh'
Bao : 'still got one more 8 la uncle!'

i got out of the cab immediatelly once my phone rang, PISSED. Hello? it was already 11am, no small changes? CRAP.


Second Incident:

i was not able to renew my passport AGAIN because of a missing paper which i didnt know i have to bring along la. WASTED MY PRETTY SLEEP, CAB FARE and EFFORT to go in again.


Third Incident:

Took a cab from Embassy to Orchard, OK its about Taxi Uncle No.2 now.

Uncle No.2 : 'Are you Singaporean?'
Phobia from the previous taxi uncle, i said : 'ya.'
Uncle No.2 : 'OH, do u know about handphone? can u help mi to get rid of the spiderman? i scare it will POP out leh.'
puzzled Bao : 'yeah, handphone, why? huh? spiderman POP out? from where??'
Uncle No.2 : ' there!! inside the phone!!'
Bao took a like at the phone, -_-'''''''' it was the THEME lah, the model was nokie N70.
Bao : ' okok i help u get rid of it' -_-'

Bao changed to a normal nokia default theme for him and saw a family picture as wallpaper there with words floating above. Took a closer look, it was a name, and the name shown is different from the name in Uncle No.2's taxi License. There are lots of scratches at the back of the phone as well.

Bao passed back the phone to Uncle No.2, and
Uncle No.2 : ' Thanks ah, i just bought this phone not long ago, dunnoe how to use the features and all '
Bao : 'Huh? just bought? wah the scratches behind veri terrible leh, next time buy SAMSUNG la uncle.'
Uncle No.2 : 'still got contract leh, still got one year more.'
Bao thoughts : -_- then its not just bought wat.
Bao : ' Oh.. then who put the spiderman 3 theme for u?? '
Uncle No.2 : 'huh? by default one ma, its already inside one.'

Bao thoughts : WTH since when Nokia phone got Spiderman 3 default theme, it should be Sony Ericsson phone which should has it inside their phones instead as they helped to advertise right. Futhermore, a year ago was spiderman 2 not spiderman 3, ins't it so obvious that the phone doesn't belongs to him?

but the very nice BaoBao dun wanna embarrasse Uncle No.2 and she went on,

Bao : 'oh i see, haiya uncle next time buy SAMSUNG la, some models are really good for simple usage users.'

Met Bronson in town for lunch afterwhich, it was raining and thats why so inconvenient to go anywhere!
we stucked at Paragon for quite some time before settled down in Thai Express. THEN
Missyying suggested out of a sudden : 'hey why not Try the Soup Spoon? i haven try b4 leh.'

ok it was veri paisei to leave without eating anything when we've already seated.

So went to The Soup Spoon and it was Full House!! -_- disappointed.
and the final decision was Sakea Sushi at Hereen!
We were stucked by the not veri heavy rain, but it was still rainning la and of coz i didnt wanna walk because i'll get sick once kana rain water! its like a curse and i have no idea about it.

hmmm this is retarded, ended up we took a cab from Paragon to Hereen.

Then First incident continues here:
i told Bronson about the 1st taxi uncle and he told mi to call the Uncle to see where was he or transfer the cab fare thru atm to him account instead.

So Bao calld the uncle and asked where was the taxi uncle.
Uncle : 'i am now around embassy there, can meet u after i had my lunched.
Bao : 'ok i wait for u at Hereen.'
this Uncle called again and said : 'actually no hurry for the cab fare la, u can pass it to mi tonight since i also stay in cck, which part of cck u staying?'
Bao : 'i am not going home today.'
Uncle : 'yeah, then at night lo'
Bao : 'i am not going home tonight!.'
Uncle : 'oh nvm, then tomorrow also.'
Bao : 'i am flying off tomorrow. Why not u give mi you bank account number and i transfer to u?'
Uncle : 'i dun have account number, i dun have a bank account.'
Bao : ' Then later u come Hereen and take from mi lo.'
Uncle : 'Where is that place?' (WAH! he don't even know where is Hereen as a Taxi driver?)
Bao : 'ORCHARD, beside paragon.' (du-lan)
Uncle: 'Orh ok Paragon huh. i coming over now.'

He wasnt anywhere around Heereen even after about 20 to 30 mins, so i called again but Bronson talked to him this time and this Uncle told Bronson that he was at PASIR PANJANG! tmd.

Then he asked for Uncle's account number again and Uncle said that his account number is with his wift and need to check with his wife. HELLO UNCLE? why u told mi that u dun have any bank account when i asked u and now u said its with ur WIFT? fuck off if u are looking for prosititute hur.

Walked over to Cine and watched "Priceless', its a French show with English Sub-titles. kinda lame comedy some indeed!



Went for somemore shoppings after the movie while waiting for Xiapei and Evon to knock off until 7pm.

3 of us, the girls went to Liquid Kitchen for dinner! it was so much more terrible than the previous time i went with Xiapei. 3 persons could came out with a bill which was $90+++. But if its not because of xiapei got entertainment fees there i doubt we will have dinner there because it can be so SINFUL eating there, not in terms of FATTENING but WASTE FOOD.

Evon rushed off after dinner as she couldnt wait to see her new love who is quite cute.
so stayed awhile longer in Liquid Kitchen with darling Xiapei before Bronson came to fetch us.

YOU KNOW WHAT? i have not EVEN log into Blackboard and try doing my E-learning assignments at all and its already Wednesday! ><
