The Mind Is A Dangerous Place

Things that should boggle the mind but do not

It's quite a wonder how quickly booksellers can get drunk.

Hi, my name is EePin, and I've not blogged for almost a month. A credit to humanity? Perhaps not. But what MIGHT be one, is that H1 and H2B I received for my efforts in essay and report writing! Yes, that essay and report that made me die a little everyday came back with these glowing marks and yes, I am happy! Happy with a Pi!

Now, I was wondering how to regale the whole month to you, I mean, my bday came and went, and... other stuff happened, but I dun really remember much. So. I shall reach back and tell u of my adventures for the weekend!

Yay!

Weekend!

Sat night, was Nasi Lemak Night! An Uncle brought homemade Nasi Lemak and boy boy boy, it was good. Assam prawns. Kangkong in belachan. Ikan bilis in belachan. Beef rendang. It really doesn't get any better than this. Unless I get to lick this off Ms Alba's body. Ahem. mmmmm....

Sunday arvo was yum cha! I have not had yum cha in ages! Yum Cha! Was good! And have not done that with the gang in AGES. So that was pretty darn fun. After that, went off to Myers to check out the insane insane toy section, where we got to see the coolest toys, and the stupidest ones. Anywaes, that was the arvo.

Then came the night. Now, this was my Company Christmas Party. We had about 5 stores come in, each with at least 6 people in their ranks. From the Glen (my store), there was... me. Yes, I was the only one present from my store. No one else came. Sigh. Thank God for a couple of pple whom I knew, they were wonderful but still, while nursing my single Stella Artois, I was contemplating wat time to leave. Then, someone came up to me and asked if I was interested in a Jagarbomb. A Jagarbomb is basically a shot of Jagarmeister, and a glass of Red Bull. To drink it, the shot is dropped into the glass of Red Bull, and then u skull it. It makes a person a much friendlier person :D After that one, it was one more beer, 3 bourbon cokes, 2 jam doughnuts (shots), a cranberry vodka and a vodka lemon lime bitters. Ahhh... the wonders of alcohol. They just seem to stack up one after the other.

Not a bad thing no :D

Also realised I am pretty known in the circle of A&R, me being the voice of the Glen. Probably the only foreign Asian in their stores, and a good worker to boot! I find the books man. You can count on me.

Anywaes, was a good good night. I remember sleeping somehow. And waking at 5am, ravenously hungry! I remember waking up... I guess.

Monday, skipped work. Apparently, many pple did. I went xmas shopping! Sing it with me! "Money grows on trees, money grows on trees..."

Alright, my fingers tire. I shall leave you with some Jim Hall. He and Bill Evans.

Enjoy.
