I went to visit Liz's blog today and read her entry on our bottle tree park escapade and had a near death experience laughing at the beautiful photos of myself there.

Anywhos, today work was super funny as well. Because of the all the swine flu hoo-ha we kept planning trips to mexico. Then Ah Fen and my BFF auntie decided that actually they wanted to go on a cruise also while they were going to mexico.

Ah Fen: Eh! Auntie, wo yao shang chuang leh! (What she's trying to say here is shang chuan. As in ship.)
BFF: SHANG CHUANG. Ta de ying, ta de ying!!! *laughs hysterically.

The "mystery customer" (which is essentially a consultant dude sent down from the big people in management to assess the service undercover as customers) was also supposed to visit this morning between 9am to 11am so Lee Chin, our 2nd manager was super stressed. Luckily May (who was the cashier) and me (who was the runner, as in the one who gathers all the food and presents it) were super focused:

May: EH alyssa, lai lai, ni kan na ge bai se hong se (he was in a red and white t-shirt) de nan ren. Handsome ma? Handsome ma!? Na bian na bian. *proceeds to push me quite violently in front of her to the cashier. Ni bu yao hen obviously kan la.
Me: *trying to look very nonchalent, whispers back. Na li, na li!???
May: Zuo bian, zuo bian!!!
Me: Oh, kan dao kan dao. Okay la.
May: Ta de girlfriend hen hao kan hor?
Me: Wo kan bu dao leh. Maybe wo qu lobby (clear tables) a xia, then ke yi kan dao ta de face.
Lee Chin: Ahhhh! NO CHIT CHAT. BU YAO KAN NAN REN.
May: EH. Dan shi hor, wo bu shuo hen xing ku leh.

Then later when Lee Chin was talking to me about something (I can't remember what) suddenly May jumped between us and said very loudly "NO CHIT CHAT!". Lol.

There was a lot of other stuff but I can't really remember at the moment. I just remember laughing a lot. OH OH and today was one of the few days where my break was while they were still serving breakfast. So I ordered a Big Breakfast. Yum. Plus, I woke up a bit late today so I packed my 2 slices of french toast and ate that during my break as well. AND on top of that, I exploded the ice cream machine today doing a vanilla cone (it was totally the machine. Not my fault.) so I also ate the mutated ice cream cone I made. And then I had a cup of tea with all of that. Ya. I'm totally not going to get obese. Yesterday post-service, when we went for curry rice they pointed out how this middle-aged muffin top (as in his stomach spills over his pants like... well, like the top of a muffin) indian man crossing the road looked "like he was five months pregnant. Pause. Like... *hysterical laughter." -.- Actually during lunch yesterday I hardly ate, because I was feeling a bit sick (I think I ate yao zha guai too early in the morning. It was super oily some more. Oh well.). I left a lot of rice. I didn't get to finish the last bit of my soya bean also. Not because I didn't want to drink it (I LOVE SOYA BEAN!) but because Kegan split my straw in two by like sort of clapping it in his hands so I couldn't suck the soya bean up without it just draining out the sides. :( I even tried to just shove the whole broken part in my mouth so that I could drink but I had to put so much of the straw in my mouth that it poked the back of my throat and was very painful. To which Kegan's response of remorse was to laugh quite hard. And even though it was only a little little bit left, I felt a longing after that that only another can of Yeo's soya bean could fulfill. So while I was having nasi padang dinner with my family at Zion Road that night (which was super yummy by the way. They use rib eye to make the rendang! :O) I ordered another can. Yay.
