The last post ain't like me...

Taking a second look at the last post, I swear, I was possessed by some potianak crazy for durian heads, hungry for hairs that are lesss than one inch.
Without further adue, let's bring in a new topic. Packed Lunch!

Hell yeah, recently at my workplace, my colleagues are staying back more and more often during lunch breaks for meeting the project's deadline. So, four minutes before 12 noon, I slowly regained my standing posture, and proceed to the pantry's fridge, where my good old packed lunch was. Then I get it into the microwave, and zaps it for 4 minutes. Meanwhile I would bring back my fruit and slowly chew on it.

Speaking of which, the fruit was an red apple! Took one bite, and nearly cried! It's sour just like a lemon! Then I took a few more chomps off this sour fruit. And I found out that the apple's texture is like... peach! Curious at the hybrid fruit that my mother chose for me, I name it....

PeaPpleMon!

.... Ok la... lame name... but can't help it man, nothing to do at lunch man! Then I took off back to the pantry and got out my lunch. My colleague who passed by the pantry incidentally for a cuppa hot water, said, "Wah! Your lunch smell beri nicez man!"

Of course! My mother cook one leh! Well, normally (from what I think), packed lunches are made EARLY in the morning, where people like me are going "Yawn!" or "I wanna sleep!" or "Don't pull me away from the pillow!". My lunch is taken from dinner the day before, and I hopefully pray that Dad will be at home, because my Mum cooks better with him around!

Ok la, it's not really like that .... you see, my Dad demands a banquet everytime for dinner, when he's around! He will go like, "What? we are having scrambled eggs for dinner? Ah Fatty! It's your birthday right! Whack you ah!"

Hahah... well... just kidding... but it's true that the dinner IS better with Dad around. Anyway, bringing packed lunches is a rarity in PSA. Most of the time, my colleagues are out for lunch. But they very unlucky man! I've my ultimate meaty packed lunch! full of meat, fish, fragrant nuts, and more! They really can't take it, and they went down to Mcdonald's and got some takeaway meals!

Well, it really helped to have my favorite clerk stand next me and give a rare compliment like, "So touching! I rarely see my son taking packed lunches from me! He always say beri pai seh (loss of face) one!"

Or my fellow colleagues' occasional, "Oi.... eating leftovers again ah. HAHA! WOHO! WEE WEE!". OK lah.... this is the end of my lame but super-high-on-drugs post! Enjoy!
