stay.

i made wanton today! haha. as in a helped to uh, package the wanton. it tasted good. and it's all cos of vicc! i actually helped to make FOOD! haha. ok.
i HAVE to make this comment. melburnians aren't kiasu people.

"duh. quite an obvious statement, really."

i didn't know that okay.
i woke up at 9:15, had a good brekkie chat with dad, and quickly got out of the house to hop onto a tram to st. kilda. as i brisked walked down the quiet streets to swanston, i noticed a few people in witch hats, snapping photos in front of melbourne central building, which is not the most photogenic building.

"what on earth...OHHHH. harry potter number six is out today at 9:01am!"

being the crowd finder that i am, i quickly walk into melbourne central, expecting an uber long queue outside borders.

"there's like. no one."

i'm not kidding you. the sixth book of harry potter was released today and there's NO ONE at borders. no queue, no screaming kids, no frustrated parents... just the borders staff, a few people hanging around and reading... at 10am. 59mins after the release. so i asked a nice looking staff nearby:

"excuse me. but uh, how come there's no crowd at all?"
"well, there was a small crowd at about 9-ish this morning, but that was all."
"oh okay. i was just a bit surprised."
"well, it's good for me. haha. not too much to handle."
"*smile. thanks alot. have a g'day."
"yup! you too."

*mish just shakes her head and walks away(mumbling something about singaporeans being so kiasu.)

anyhow. trammed to vicc's place and had alot of fun! uh, i must say that the soy icecream was really good. and the wanton mee of course.

"won't get me anywhere..."
just stay.

p.s. i'm NOT kiasu okay. i was just being... curious. but i bought my book today lah(: hurhur.
