just a post =)

okay, this is a personal post so u might not understand. yep, u can skip this unless u're my sis,my tuition teacher or me. =D

yesterday i went to 还债.
oh no i didn't borrow from the loansharks, i just meant paying the overdued tuition fees i owed my tuition teacher, mrs cheng.anyway, i smsed her during the weekends and asked her when she'll be at the tuition centre.

me: mrs cheng, when will u be at the tuition centre?coz i need to pay the remaining tuition fees and i need to confirm with the list(a list that we have to sign whenever we pay fees) the mths i havent paid.

her: I should be there ard 10 on tues. the last time u paid was in sept. (X)

And so i did a mental and decided to go on tues after 12 coz i thought if the tuition started at ten it wld end after 12. everyone knows mrs cheng always dragged her tuition. (actually though many students complain or even quit coz she's always not on time.i beg to differ. did it ever occur to u that if she went ot, she's the one who's losing out and we're the ones who benefit fm it, since our tuition fees only cover 2hrs per session? still i hear groans n complains. do ppl appreciate what they have? where else will u find such a dedicated teacher who stays back just to make sure u understood n that she covered everything she needed to?(n without charging u extra fees?) it's not that i never complained but i do stop to rmb that all that was for me. okay okay, im digressing.

so yes, i went there on tues. and in the morning i even smsed her to tell her that i was coming that day at abt 1220pm to pay the fees. i felt quite happy to be able to meet her again coz this might very well be the last time im gonna step into the tuition centre and meet her, if the gathering we're suppose to have is not postponed but cancelled. sigh, but sadly, when i reached there she had already left. then it struck me that the tuition might have started at 8 and ended at 10+!! crap! why didn't think of it? 8am was like the standard time she would time her tuition. though with mrs cheng around, there'd never be a 'standard' time or so to speak. shite! Assumption should be made as the 8th deadly habits of ppl. so when i reached there, there was only her mum n her sister there. of course i had no choice but to pass the money and the stack of sch papers she wanted to her mum.then i smsed her to tell her that i paid the money already n i left the stack of papers there. i thought it was a no-need-reply kind of msg so i didnt expect her to reply or call. And then i went to macs' toilet coz i was really urgent. And to my horror, the lock is kind of spoilt and the new lock they fixed on wasnt of much help u know. like when u pushed the door accidentally from inside, the new lock dislodges itself and ta-da the door opens. but luckily the cubicle was quite small and the door is within arms length and i could keep an eye on it. so yah, i was peeing and just when i sat down, my phone rang. now in this situation there are 2 choices
1) pick up the phone while peeing and trying to clean up
2) let it ring and get back to the person after you're done
so which one will u pick? any average, sensible person would choose option 2 right. well im below average so i fish in my bag n picked up the phone.

me: hello? [by then i had already finished and had to clean up liao]
mrs cheng: eh......so soorryyy.(that's excatly how she said it) i forgot abt the appointmt.
me: er, nvm lah. it's okay.anw i left the stuff there already. [pulling the toilet roll n trying to tear a piece. but i only had one hand u see so im like using my other elbow to help. gawd i must have looked retarded. anw i managed.]

The conversation cont with her asking wat im doing NOW n stuff. and when i told my sis up till this pt, i said there's 2 ways of interpreting the qn.
1) wat are u doing now?(as in now n then in the toilet)
2) wat are u doing now?(as in now, during the hols)
obviously there in the toilet i wasnt really in the mood to talk so i ans using option 2.
but my cranky sis told me i should have said," now? im trying to wipe my a** with only one hand taking the toilet paper and the toilet door is spoilt so im trying to keep it close.and finally im talking to u holding the phone with the other hand.so do u mind if i get back to u afterwards? im kind of busy now."
oh gawd, i wonder what would be her reaction if i said that. hurhurx!
yepp that's the first joke i made that day. (did u laugh?)

okay, to the more productive part. i went to the library!! yayy..finally. haha. And to be truthful i havent been to the library for more that 7 years. goodness! i tell u..im a freak that didnt read a single book on my own since primary 5.it's amazing that i can pass my languages. so yah, i was so sua gu in the library but i acted normal lah. went up to the 3rd storey of the building to find books that interest me. everything went well until i was about to borrow my books and return a book i borrowed previously. okay, i dont have a library card but i knew i colud use my I/C to do it. and to my horror, the machine said i needed verification and had to go to the counter. i didnt believe it at first so i tried the second time and got the same respond.damn wats wrong with this man.

At the counter:
me: hi excuse me, the machine says i need verification.(sounds a bit wrong right?)
the lady: (after scanning my I/C) oh, u're not registered.
me: (shocked. u mean i need to register to borrow books?) oh then do i register now?(i guess i said that with a blur look on my face)
the lady: yeah. i'll do it now for u. (and all along she was um-chio-ing [suppressing giggles])
me: yeah okay, thanx. (and i was thinking,"is it very funny?"and i rolled my eyes)

And after that, of course i successfully borrowed my books. and my sua-guness didnt stop there. X i couldnt find the bookdrop. but i sort of rmbed it was outside the library. and stubborn me refused to believe myself so i went up to the second level and back to the first when i decided to go to the entrance to have a look. true enough, it was there so i dropped my book in.
and that was my second joke of the day. oh well, aint i dumb?
