tired to the bone!
soccer in the mornin was great even though i know i still lack the fitness element but that will have to improve someday :P but still my knees ache! not from soccer but from the super long pool/snooker session the nite before. they still ache now -_-

went down to help chee chang to sell off his discman at cash converters and it was an interesting insight if not dumb experience. well first the system works like this you step into their "buys room" which is like a normal shop except there's a lot of pple waitin to sell their stuff and the temperature there must be abt 30 degs. and after you take the que number you realise that if its at 34 and your number is 25 then you've gotta wait till the counter resets to 50 then all the way up to 25 and i've calculated that they take approx 1 hour to clear 16 pple. super wols. so anyway i left chee chang to stone in that room while i sneaked off (not sneaked la, i told him i was going to find pple) to JEC's ice skatin rink like next door to say hi and watch a couple of yf-ers who were ice skatin (serena, stan, zim, boss, lingwei, david, carol) and talked and laughed and looked on. yes i've got no desire to get onto the ice hehe i prefer solid ground and wheels very much thank you! not to mention i was in berms and slippers. and yes its fun to see pple go ard in circles and occasionaly fall lol. (oops i'm a bit of a sadist) so after that went back to accompany cc and yes he sold it to them in the end for a measly 25 bucks which was like totally ripped off. i think its some form of pressure tactics. they make you wait 3 hours, put you in a stuffy crowded warm room, then diss your product and give you a low price. and its like since you waited for so long you end up acceptin their offer though its ridiculous.

heh just read jonnie's blog and its soooo interesting. keep it up man! your humour and sacarsms rank high on my list of must-reads!
