Kanoodling with Kebabs

1st Aug 2007

I grabbed an AO bar from the benchtop, swung open the door and begun racing like a mad dog to Uni. Thoughts like "Shit, PLEASE don’t let me be late, its my first day at Uni AND work oke???" swirled in my head as I juggled my books and umbrella. A quick glance revealed it was only quarter past eleven, not too shabby, I thought as I heaved a tiny sigh of relief. As I unwrapped that goodie bar, I was wondering if there were any ways I could cut my showering time into half. None. So much for being EARLY for Uni. (For those of you who are ignorant, I was almost, always late for classes back home. Its tradition oke?) Walking briskly, I begun chomping on that goodie bar, occasionally sloshing about in several puddles. Ugh, wouldn’t have minded so much if it were slush. =D Fat hopes.

I dashed into the Kebab shop at half past eleven, just right on the dot. =D After washing my hands and donning my tiny apron, I got down to business. People begun streaming in then, there were 5 of us casuals at the counter, so space is a luxury, naturally. I also found out most of us were fellow Msians, small world la. After slapping about 6 or so piping hot pita breads on my palm (there were 2 sheets of skinner-than-thee papers between my palm and the pita but even the lousiest 1-ply toilet paper is wayyyyyy thicker), my palm was coloured deep pink and appeared to be slightly swelling. Job hazzard! Sigh. Kiam cai mia la, what to do? By the time I got off my shift, my palm was like that of Muhammad Ali’s glove oredi - big and conspicuously red as a lobster.

Clutching my toasted hand, I made my way to I.M Lecture only to find there were no familiar faces around. (I would LOVE to blog about the comical events that are about to follow BUT in the face of social repercussions, you’d have to msn me about it oke? =D) Anyway, although the Sg lecturer spent about a quarter of an hour introducing (bragging about) her work experiences, the lecture wasn’t as boring as it was made out to be. =) Next up was Capstone class, which left my head swimming with jargons and I also met DT from home! What a pleasant surprise this was! So this is where he went, no wonder I didn’t see him around. =D The walk back home was quiet, save for the fact that my stomach was protesting really loudly. Really can’t wait to get online! =)
