~ WOW ~

Hmmm woke up quite early for a sunday morning today to go que up for jap classes. haha. yea lor. WTH right jap classes aso nid to que up... that time i went with daniel to his just waltz in lidat and ask and sign up liao. this one still have to que up. hah. maybe cos its good ma =p or maybe just cos its the cheapest. lol. but they are from Singapore Jap Society or smth de so shud be quite good bah. heeee.

its really crazy, i went more than an hr early but infront of me got ALOT of ppl. some pics to help you better understand the situation... wahaha.




The people right infront of us



The people behind us



What the que looks like after u turn the corner



They issued que tickets to everyone just as the registration was abt to open. and this is wad i got. almost a good 300 people infront of me man! wahhhh...



We even had to que up the dirty staircase!(5 story's!)

But it was all worth the que bah. cos i actually got the sunday class which i wanted with my frens all inside. heeeee. and there were space for 2 or 3 more for the class after i got my space.



Spoils for the day.


Hah. after the long queing we went to have lunch and seperated after that. ricky followed me to sim lim sq as he was gonna take bus there. i went to return money i still owed my unc for the com parts.

after returning the money i decided to look around cos i believe my ex-harddisk power adaptor spoiled. But my seagate harddisk also under 5 yrs warranty la. so i went into this shop which sold the harddisk to enquire if the guy knows where is the seagate service centre. this was roughly the conversation that followed
guy: ohhhhh... sir u dun have warranty card then cannot. this kinda thing must have warranty card one you must have bought a parallel import.
(IMMEDIATELY i knew he was talking bullshit. cos i went to seagate webby they verify warranty by serial number one. PLUS i bought my harddisk from CHALLENGER. Chances of the guy selling the parallel import is HIGHER.)
Me:ohhh... but can you tell me where is the service centre
Guy:you dun have warranty card no use wad
Me:orhh yea. but i just wanna know
(This is the best part)
Guy:Why should i tell you?? i dun owe you the information what!(here it comes!) You buy one from me and get the warranty card la. then i tell you!
Me: WOW. thats certainly very good customer service you have here
Guy:You can get out of my shop now. i insist.
Me: yea. even if u dun insist i also will get out ah!

WTF RIGHT. WTF. PLEASE beware of this shop ppl. DO NOT BUY from the orange accesories shop on the 4th floor of SLS that is right infront of the escalator. KNN. i didn go check other shops ah but i saw the power adaptors all like old old one. Then i remember i buy before where got so ex one. the cheapest one they selling was wad 32 bucks?!? for a freaking power adaptor??? fucked up man. please take note ppl.

After that i really no mood to continue walking arnd SLS already. lest i bump into more of such ppl. Im sure they will be recieving their service awards very soon.

So i said bye to ricky and went on my way home. Sat at the busstop feeling dam pissed (i hate confrontations, ruins my day). So i was quite absorbed in my own world and listening to music on my phone when someone tapped me. i turned to my side and it was this old lady with lots of bags of stuff. she asked if i could sit more to the other side so she could put her stuff on the bench, cos the stuff were heavy and she had a weak heart. much obliged.

When my bus came i noticed she was gonna take the same bus. so i turned around and went to her to offer help. she was really grateful and we ended up chatting on the bus. shes quite a nice lady and well, all the stuff she bought (ikan billis) and what not are actually quite cheap anywhere de. but she chose to buy from bugis cos it was cheaper from the wholesaler. That 1 buck or 50 cents mattered enough to her. I found out shes on constant medication now and alot of money was spent on hospital bills. (lucky she got a son who teaches at VJC. wow) but if you look at it in a way, shes scrimping and saving to pay for her hospital bills. wah. and i can spend 30 bucks easily on a weekend outing with friends. =x really makes me quite guilty.

well, chatting with that old lady sorta made me feel better. prolly cos shes just someone simple and outgoing. not like the scheming guy(UNCLE) back at SLS who tries whatever means to sell products.

so on the whole my day was quite ok. sitting infront of the com now with the jap book on the desk... haha. thats about it for now. bye!
