Pre-Holiday Mood

I am going on a holiday trip to Taipei next Friday but I feel like I’m not ready for it.

The assignments and presentations that I need to complete by Thursday, and the fact that my examinations begins the week after I come back.

Itinerary for the trip is still not 100% done, I gave myself an easy way out by inserting “take a cab” instead of finding the directions.

Like what Gary from Running Man would always say…

Graphophobia

With all the assignments and tasks for school, I’ve now developed a phobia of writing.

It was once a favourite tool for me to express myself in the best way possible. But I’m now overloaded and exposed to so much writing in school and knowing that I cannot write as well as I thought I could - I’m now afraid of it.

This is not a joke, this is real. I feel stressed up even writing this post. I hope I can do well and get this module done with after my exams in April.

Picking Up Chicks

I was having supper at the coffeeshop near my house last week. Just a few tables away from me was a group of uncles enjoying their beer and seated amongst them was the beer lady.

Since they were chatting at an above average volume, I could hear their conversation which goes something along the lines of this:

Man: Do you know why I’m here everyday?
Lady: *smiles coquettishly* No.
Man: The reason why I drink here everyday is because of you. I want to see you.

The beer lady reached over and gave the man a light pat on his left cheek.

The grains of fried rice I was eating came alive and each grain of them gave a standing ovation to the man right there, but I gobbled them up anyway.

Learning something new, I picked up my courage, went over to the auntie selling fishball noodles and told her:

Me: Do you know why I buy from you few times a week?
Lady: *blank stare*
Me: Because I love you and your fishballs.

All I got was the middle finger.
