My mum scares me sometimes. She went on a
taitai shopping spree this afternoon, and she had to call me to go down and help her
bring all her stuff up lol. And she came with a
new phone (for caller-id), some potted plants, other nitty-gritty things, and an
osim massage machine which cost
i-didn't-ask-cos-i-don't-want-to-know and a $60
osim pen.
What does she need to write which requires ink from a $60 pen, I really wonder. And she bought some
really expensive bulbs with the white lights, and now she's changing the lights at the dining area. And just for information, the bulbs in the 5 lights are
yellow. And she bought 3
white bulbs. So now I'll be eating in white+ yellow light.
Amazing.
And she told me about her hilarious experience at the mrt station. She stood at the machine to buy the standard card, and she couldn't get the coins or the dollar notes in, so she stood there for a
very long 5 min waiting for someone to use the machine so she could see
what to do. And then she said this little girl came by and so mum tried to peek at what she did. And the girl pressed the buttons so fast she couldn't catch, so she asked the girl "which one to press first..." and finally got her card after
10 min. And then at the entrance, she thought she had to push the card
into a slot, and so there she was, trying to fit the card into a
non-existent slot, when she saw a man just
tap and go. -__-""" I almost fell out of my chair when she told me.
Anyway, today xiu huan was
extra insane. She kept making my toy barney
roar for don't know what reason, and then she said barney was an
elephant, and proceeded to make him sleep by making all sorts of
snoring noises. And she did this for
10min during laoshi's class lol. And then, for english lesson, we had a great and fruitful conversation lol. Well, pet and me learnt a lot. >.-
Macbeth test tomorrow. Math test thursday. Did I mention that life is
beautiful?
