Of the great / not-so-great safety pin debacle
I believe so far i have told the story to Anna, Isabel, Zhang Quan, Pearl, Christine, Rui Qi, Han Xian, Jian Rong, Annabel...and some others guess..So i figured, why not share the joy.?
Wednesday morning- 8.30am, after all my usual rushing to school on account that I am by no means a morning person. I go to school horrified to find out that my second button on my shirt is loose. Deciding to head to the school office to get a change of uniform, here's what transpired between the office lady and I...Grr...
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Me: Excuse me, could I get a change of uniform top please?
Office lady: Why?
Me: Because my second button on my uniform top is loose.
Office lady: So?
Me: So its indecent and obscene...
Silence...
Me: So can i have a new uniform top.? I will just loan it for one day
Silence...
Office lady: No. Because at the end of the day when the people return the uniform, its very crumpled and smelly.
Me: Mine wont be smelly, I'm wearing cologne today- Mental note:::"Hugo Boss: Selection mind you!"
Silence...
Me: So what can you do for me then?
Office lady: I can give you a safety pin...
She then proceeds to take out a dangerously flimsy looking safety pin and hands it to me...
Me: Erhm, could you give me another safety pin?
Office lady: No ( frowning )
Boy exits office..slamming the door behind him.

Points to note:
1)Isn't it obvious that I will wash and iron the uniform first before I return it to you i.e, no more crumpled!
2) How dare you say / imply that I'm smelly!
3) Please donate to the MJ school fund, we are living in poverty ( I'm quoting ms Christine who by the way, was great on 987's control, I hope i win too!), we cant even afford to give out one more safety pin!
4) I swore that the next day, I would throw ten thousand safety pins at her and spray my cologne in her face! - one of these days...
5) Jian Rong suggested a really good albeit mean retort to her saying I'm smelly. But I shan't mention it here...lets just say it is racist...I must kowtow to the king bitch...
6) The principal says we can ask for a change of uniforms..but obviously exposed shirts
doesn't fall under the
category of qualifying for a change.
Anyway, that event really cheesed me off and that started my complaining streak...Which i shall share about soon. Wow. Blogging again is great...
Confession: Watched eternal summer 4.5 times. I know, somethings wrong with me..but it IS a nice movie and good things deserve to be re-watched. Come on, I watch each episode of ugly Betty at least 3 times before the next episode...
Till next time...
Bah, i cant think of any inspirational quotes now...TATA
