About the previous title, i did not mention photocopying machine, cos i was to talk about Cinta Fotokopi, the Malay romantic comedy now playing at only Causeway Point cineplex and the whole of M'sia. The plot...however, has nothing gotta do with photocopying machine or to photocopy anything. Just another typical M'sia school lovestory.
The point why i wrote photocopying machine is because i am thinking of going to Woodlands central for a walk, to see the changes, and mabey another movie at Causeway pt cine. Nah, i went to Parkway Parade and town instead. Went to Cold Storage to get a bottle of Vanilla Coke, and met that nice friendly handsome male cashier whose shares the same surname as me. (Note: My surname in Mandarin is known as Chen, just like Tan in Hokkien and Chan in Cantonese. Because i am a Hockchew, it is pronounced as Ting. The Malay officials wrote it wrongly, and it ended up as Ding for me, my bro and my papa. MY SURNAME IS NOT DING IN MANDARIN!!! I AM A CHEN!!!)
When u found someone sharing the same surname in same pronounciation, that could mean one thing: thelucky fella/gal could share the same dialect group as you. Because my dialect group is considered a minority, so it is very rare to meet Hockchewnese, or mabey a West Malaysian from Lumut or Sitiawan, Perak. However, that poor fella met a rather -ve customer tdy: Singaporean chinese SPG and her ang moh hubby. They bought loads of groceries, and they want the poor cashier to hurry up. In fact, some of the items they bought are fresh veggies and frutis which do not even come with a barcode, and thus some typing of numbers are needed. When they bought over $169 worth of groceries, he said: $169.90 pls, the SPG replied: Oei, i give u that $40 vouchers leh? After deduction, he asked the ang moh hubby whether he is paying by cash or nets. The hubby replied in a very polite manner: Nets please. My thought: BITCH.
My thoughts on these SPG:They tend to be more demanding than the ang mohs. Mabey this is the reason: 1. showing off their superiority. They think they are high class by having an ang moh partner, so they tend to show off their powers by being a bit sacarstic, a bit demanding and a bit of 'showing that they are filthy rich loo' to their fellow race/group etc. 2. Going after the ang moh's $$$ ? Cos SPG tend to suck up to the angmohs for the $$$. So, mabey that's why they are so diao? Mabey one day when these ang mohs abandon them, they will cry and curse, swear and weep? If one day their children work and they met such people, mabey this is their retribution.
So took a bus to Suntec and later walked to Bugis Junction. When passing Shaw Towers, hey, there is a CD clerance sale near the box office counter. That reminds me of the ad i saw on today's Classified, where thousands of CD's at $9.90, and plenty of French music cd's. OK, so i take a look trying my luck to see whether i could find any albums from Sigur Ros. Nah, they dun have it, but as they had plenty of old abums, i search all and i found a-Ha's old album in the end. The 1st album i found: East of the Sun, West of the Moon. I told myself: give me more time, and i can find the rest of the old albums from a-Ha. In the end, i found the album that i am searching fo since i was in Yr 1 in TP:
Stay on These Roads. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG, so many albums that i want to buy and they are now on sale. Have to go back there few days later, to get: Astronaut from Duran Duran, Prince, Madonna and mabey OST of La Mala Educacion?
Now playing: Out of the Blue Comes Green from A-ha's 3rd album, Stay On These Roads. Oh yeah, Stay on these Roads is a song actually, and for ya info, this album is no longer in production.
