give urself a break! =)

omg,
work today was buzzling!
so damn many many many ppl.
and yet there's only 1 cook, 2 workers.
( 1 is busy with serving/taking orders/clearing/cashier, other 1 is dishwishing.) i'll definitely play the role in serving.. Nola, we helped each other out cuz our job is to do everything except the cooking.

But still, two person is not enough!
Anw, gonna stop working for the next 3 weeks. planning to give myself a rest and complete all my schwork. im laggin damn far behind the others!

Suddenly i recalled of one of my encounters with 1 hokkien-speaking customer.

Auntie: xiaomei ah, ji gey si simi?
(looking at our display pizza)
Me: orh, si pizza lai eh.
Auntie: o, wo ai ji gey.
Me: oh, le ai simi size eh ?
(i wanna laugh when i speak out this sentence sia. -.-)
Auntie: ho wo dua eh lor.
(pointing to the regular size)
Me: le ai simi flavour le?
Auntie: wu kua eh bo?
(this makes me wanna laugh even harder. LOL)
Me: wu ah, wu kua eh.
Auntie: wo ai ji gey.. wu buai mee ah? wo ai hum jio juei juei eh hor. go ai leng puai le mong zhui.. gum sia ah..

Pardon my hokkien, for the english version,

Auntie: Hey girl, what's this?
(looking at our display pizza)
Me: Oh it's pizza.
Auntie: Give me one.
Me: Oh what size would u like?
Auntie: Give me the bigger size one.
(pointing to the regular size)
Me: And your choice of pizza ?
Auntie: Got chicken one or not?
Me: Got ah, got chicken one.
Auntie: Give me one.. Got sell noodles ah? I wan one with alot of chillis.. and also two ice lemon tea. thanks ah.

Its just one of my "memorable encounter" with the customers. The "kua" realli makes me laugh. haha.. =D

Tmr is dong ji! Every year of this day grandma and i would make tang yuan for dong ji.. its quite fun actually. And then the next day eating our very own self made tang yuan. (although it doesnt taste tat great but its still better than those bought outside. ^^)

but sadly, this year we arent making any and i asked grandma why. She said its because of grandpa's death this yr..
So there wun be animore tang yuan making for next 2 yrs! =(
