Those who know me pretty ok would probably know or shall i say,
immune, to what appears to be my "holy water" .
Those who don't know, it's one of my tics where i spit . /embarassed.
i know, eew. Oh well, i wouldn't do it if i could help it , right?
Anyhow, the "holy water" has been oh unconditionally blessing my laptop,
causing stains and ugh u know what. Sank god i finally stopped procrastinating and went off to Carefour with jd to hunt for appropriate accessories to save my lappie's physical condition.
What did i buy ?
Screen protector, keyboard protector, micro-fibre cloth, LCD cleaner,
keyboard vacuum, some cyber-clean sort of slim thingy, and hahah an external keyboard ! yeah, following the steps of my fellow tambi in keeping her laptop clean and convenient.
And going out with jd, nevertheless meant another adventure.
While jd was in the line, i went to grab a packet of drink nearby.
When i heard jd screaming "CHING !", i rushed over. She whispered "that chinese guy behind us tried to cut my line." A moment later, he suddenly stood in front of me, shoving his jar of cheese to the cashier and placed it on the counter.
Did i mention, the cashier was still handling the customer in front of us ?
then out of no where, he started talking to the cashier in Arab. He tried to be friendly.
He even asked "you malay or Kadazan?". He just kept babbling.
I guess it's one of his tactics of the ways to cut line -
"To distract people by continuously talking rubbish!"
He then took out his money and asked "Eh, where's my cheese?".
The cashier was still scanning the earlier customer's things !!
The cashier was in shock but manage to give the man the
'can't you see what i'm doing' look, and ignored him! Jd and i just watched and laughed.
Even the family behind us were gossiping bout the man cutting the queue and shook
their heads in disgust.
We weren't mad.
We were amused that a grown up old man
would do something not quite ethical.
