02.11.2008 | 一臉愕然

今晚一連發生咗兩件令我愕然嘅事情, 搞到我忽然失驚長達兩秒之久..

[愕然叉燒包]
頭先個肚覺得有啲餓, 因為午餐+晚餐喺下晝五點鐘食過咗, 所以就行咗去屋外嘅報攤, 諗住求其買兩個叉燒包嚟喫.. FYI, 雖然牛頭唔搭馬嘴, 不過呢度好多檔攤都係一邊賣包一邊賣報紙架.. 手上準備咗兩蚊以為夠啦, 點知原來兩個包要RM2.80喎!! 好彩身上有多餘錢咋, 唔係就醜死怪喇.. 乜而家啲包咁貴架喇?? 定係我太耐冇自己買過包, 個價錢仲停留喺好平嘅印象中??

[愕然聚舊會]
食過包之後, 見到有個舊同學嘅未接來電, 於是就打返畀佢啦.. 原來佢問我明年1月10號得唔得閑, 因為有個小學聚舊晚會.. 係廿週年聚舊晚會, 所以搞大佢.. 冇聽錯啊, 就係20年啊, twenty years, dua puluh tahun, li jap ni啊!! 唔覺唔覺, 原來輾轉間自己小學畢業已經將近20年咁耐喇!! {-_-}" 係喇係喇, 畀你估中我今年幾歲喇, 又如何啫, 我係老餅呀, 唔得咩??two consecutive incidents that surprised me out of nothing tonight, got me paused with the shocked expression for 2 seconds..

[shocked by char siew bun]
was feeling a little hungry just now, because had lunch+dinner around 5pm, hence walked to the newspaper stall outside my house thinking of getting myself two char siew bun to ease the hunger.. sounds quite weird, but it's not uncommon to have a stall selling both buns and papers together.. got myself RM2 on hand for the buns, but it came out to be RM2.80 instead, fortunately i brought extra money with me, else i'd certainly get disgracefully embarrassed.. has the buns gone this expensive lately?? or it's just me that still thought they are cheap snacks??

[shocked by anniversary gathering]
saw a missed call from an old classmate after finished with the bun, returned her call and she actually wanted to invite me to the anniversary gathering for primary schoolmates, which is 10th Jan next year.. and since that would be the 20th anniversary hence it would be rather a grand one.. oh yes, no mistake, it's twenty years, dua puluh tahun, yee sap nin, li jap ni!! just didn't realise it has been 20 years since i graduated from the primary school.. {-_-}" oh well, you got my age now, ok ok, i admit i'm an old slug, but there's just nothing wrong right??
