So, physics is over. Literally, and over in the sense that its a gone case. Don't worry my friends, this post will NOT be about how badly I think I'll fare for physics. This will be a happy post without physics. (:

After two weeks of pain, stress and hardwork, today is finally the day. To let everything out! :D The girls plus congshun went off on the bus to far east. After a long decision making inbetween sakae sushi or pastamania, the group CANNOT tahan the hunger pangs and decided to rush to pastamania. After a very full meal, congshun left and the girls just went shopping. Soon, the guys arrived and we started shopping tog! LOL! Ya sounds pretty silly. We just kept looking around the shops until we were all very tired. Luckily, some starbucks guy came to offer us a trial for their new drink, green tea frappe I think. Check this out for more details. (:

At food republic, we just talked alot, and very loudly. LOL, it was super embarassing when Debbie screamed when agnesagnesagnes.lj hit her thigh.

Anyway, my highlight of today's post is this really lousy salesman agnesagnesagnes.lj and I met while going over to cine to meet lanlin. This is the conversation that we had..

Start.

Salesman: "Hi. I'm doing this CIP thing here. Erm, you all are students right? From JCs?"
Us: "Ya."
SM: "Okay." *Smiles, and lifts his hands, and shook hands with both me and Agnes.

SM: "I'm sure you all got do CIP right?"
Us: "Ya.."
SM: "Ya, cause I'm doing this CIP thing which is different from the ones you all usually do. Is where we help those poorer students by selling this pens." *Pulls out two very normal, and lousy ballpoint pens and passes it to me and Agnes.

SM: "Ya, you should read the words at the back, very important." *Points to white paper with words at the back that makes no sense.

SM: "Got alot of adults are helping us la. Some give us 30 to 50$. But you all students, can contribute 6, 8$?" *Takes out a wade of cash to show us what he means.

By this time, I know something is totally wrong. LOL! Let's continue and see what this pathetic guy can do..

SM: "Ya, so are you buddhist or christians?"
Me: "Freethinker."
Agnes: "Catholic."

*SM shakes hands with both of us again.

SM: "Ya, so are you all interested? Cause this students have to meet a certain quota wan. So if you all can, help a bit la. 4 or 6$ also can. 2$ also can."
Agnes: "Sorry ar. I don't have 2$."

I admit laa, Agnes.. HOW CAN YOU NOT HAVE 2$!?!!?! LOL. But ya, let's continue..

SM: "Okay, then you?" *Talking to me.
Me: "I have 2$ but I'm not interested."
SM: "Oh, not interested ar? Ya, alot people not interested one."
Me: "The thing is, I don't even know anything about this company you are talking about. Sorry, but I'm really not interested."
SM: "Oh, never mind. Alot people also tell me that. Never mind, alot people also say they're not interested.."

OMG! He's attitude sucks like a big bubble tea straw!
Firstly, this guy we're talking about is our typical singapore ah beng. He has multiple piercing, wearing skinnies and a purple shirt. He did not show me any sort of ID about this company he is representing, he talked to me like as if he doesn't know anything about the damn project (like as if it exist in the first place) and how can he keep the cash in his own pocket?! Not like as if it is his money ar? LOL! No laa, his money maa. Enough for him to go drink coffee already! At starbucks some more! LOL. :X

So, the moral of the story is, do not trust people so easily okay kids? And don't be too shy or afraid to say "no" to others. (:
