my new phone!..
well almost..my mum came back from her trip on friday evening..england, hongkong, china and back in singapore..or is it england, china, hongkong then singapore? hmm..anyway, she brought back loads of stuff, mostly yummies..but no present! she shopped for
karen but not me! gosh..what's the world coming to? and the only thing she offered me as a gift i passed it on to my bro! yah you guessed it, it's the
Nokia 6230! gosh..what am i becoming? some raving nincompoop?! (just to sidetrack a little..nincompoop IS a word in the dictionary!) but when i think about it again, i don't need a new handphone..a handphone is just for calling and receiving other people's calls, sms-ing and used as an alarm clock..mine can do all that..I WANT THE NOKIA 6230!!!!
mooncakes are nice..the fact that it's a once-a-year event makes it event more special..just like how durians used to be special until they realised that durians actually dropped throughout the year! so then, i bought a box of "goodwood park hotel homemade" mooncakes, shared with my friends so we could get a discount..two durian and two lotus paste..how can mooncakes made in a hotel be called homemade? shouldn't it be hotelmade or something like that? unless of course it's made in someone's home..but then that's not practical is it? it's not like they're just making a few boxes..unless that person's home is pretty big..or maybe someone actually STAYS in goodwood hotel..well anyway, i brought it home hoping to share with the family..the moment i mentioned mooncake to my dad..he gave me that grumpy look and deadpanned "i don't take it..they are too sweet!" what?! he's psychic or something? he hasn't even tried any and he presumes they are sweet? but that's him and i cannot really be bothered to convince him..which i was kind of glad for cuz in the evening when i started on the durian mooncake i couldn't stop myself..finishing one whole mooncake in the process! it's basically like eating a whole durian minus the shell and the seeds..it is that good! and the best part is, unlike most people out there..i CAN afford such a guilt-filled luxury!
