The Long and Short Of It All..... huh?

bummer.

my saturday is such a bummer. woke up the usual daaaaaamn early time to go to work and was much much much sleepier than other days. and then scurrying around on my table was this tiny insect that looks so much like a baby roach but they said its not a roach but a german i-dont-know-what. doesn't matter what it is, it still irked me. i kept flicking and blowing it away so much so it appears i was kinda playing with it because it always came back. and then when i wasn't looking, it was gone. while i was on a call, i picked up my soyabean drink and to my dismay, the stupid thing was hiding behind the carton. so i screamed, not a loud one but more of a slight shock.

 

and i forgot to press the damn mute button. the QA is gonna hantam me for sure.

 

after work i went to watch a play at the Esplanade cuz i had free tickets, courtesy of Ah-Ee-Na and her friend. It's about....

 

A powerful old witch, enraged by society's rejection of her beautiful daughter, wreaks disaster on an entire kingdom in one of Indonesia's most exciting legends. Rooted in East Java and adopted by the Balinese, Calonarang is an 11th century tale of a battle between good and evil, a tale of womanhood, patriarchal violence and the futility of war and blame. The production Calonarang is a collaboration between master of Javanese Bedaya dance, Retno Maruti, and internationally-renowned Balinese Legong dancer, Bulantrisna Djelantik. Experience the magic of the legend as the traditional Javanese and Balinese gamelan and dances of two cultures - the elegant Javanese Bedaya and the dynamic Balinese Legong - fuse to bring the legend to life.
 

sounds interesting eh? oooooookkkkkaaaaayyyyyyyyy la. i wouldn't say it's so good. i almost slept throughout the show actually. haha sorry Ah-Ee-Na!

 

midah and me walked down to bugis to get some roti prata for dinner, thinking specifically to go to arab street. but then we came upon this malay/mamak kedai just beside tong seng and just sat there. wah lao i tell you service damn sucks man. Guy A is busy fidgeting and walking around finding customers and providing them seats. but after we were seated, just to call him and ask for orders, i think you might have to use a loudspeaker. we asked for dalcha and fish curry and the plate came with 2 sides that have the same color and same taste. then midah asked him..

 

midah : man!(asal boleh panggil je) we asked for dalcha.

Guy A : oh you want fish?

midah : no no, we asked for dalcha. it didnt come.

Guy A : so you want fish?

midah : no! dalcha! we want dalcha!

Guy A : oh okay, so fish eh.

midah and me : DALCHA! WE WANT DALCHA BUT DONT HAVE!

Guy A : dalcha okay i'll check with them

 

what the fuck? dalcha n fish dont even rhyme sia!

 

end up the dalcha didnt come. again.

 

midah called Guy B for dalcha.

 

this time the dalcha came, or so we thought. it looks like our 2 sides, same color and same taste. i'm thinking its still fish curry.

 

wah piang piang piang till dono where piang oredi ok.

 

thats the last time i'm eating there. tong seng i will still go though. :D
