It's been so long since i updated. I"ve been working at my aunt's antique shop! Oh, and i must tell you all my phone is warped. I cannot receive any messages at all. So, call me, people, if you have anything to tell me, important or not. :D
It's very amusing working there. I get to see all kinds of people. There were these two korean women.
They were holding this cake mould thing and brandishing it around laughing. They were saying "tun-tun heyo" and "mori". which means "fat" and "head". Guess i'm not the only one with violent tendencies.
I said anyeong-haseyo(hello) to them in korean and they started to like, exclaim happily and smile a lot. They bought the cake mould thing, no doubt to whack some "fat head" later on. I said kamsa-hamnida (thank you) to them and they started the "oh my!" thing again. heehee. funny.
ps: they can't count singapore dollars properly. yay.
My sister was outside helping to choose and stick stuff on bookmarks for tourists. (only tourists do this) There was this group of thai students wanting to do their names. They have such...beautifully exotic names like "Virgil" and "Nikko" -both guys.
Then stayed till quite late. More people came around 5 plus. This bunch of tall guys came and started touching everything, yes everything in the shop. LOL.
This guy held up the God of Fortune statue in front of the cashier and said to his friend " Hey, look! This little guy is so cool!" oh my god, the poor statue must be so offended.
They took lots of pics with the swords in the shop. Guess they don't see swords in their country.
I asked them if they were from America, and the tall dude said yes. So i was talking to them, this guy and his friend, a black guy, both very cute. They're from new york!
So one of them, the shorter one( it's not nice to say black, right? he's brown) told me he wanted a souvenir for his brother.
I showed him this orange toad thing that you could play with by running this stick up it's back. The other guy was like," this is so cool!"
So i asked if he wanted to try it. "Yea! sure, this is so fascinating!" LOL. it's just a funny looking wooden frog.
So they played with it for a while and told me they found singapore very fun. He bought the frog. It's freaking overpriced, i tell you. But so is everything everywhere.
His friend got two chinese paintings. The rest were like, playing with the stuff in the shop. lol
They went out of the shop to play with this thing that would have water jumping up if you rub your hands on it. the shorter guy kept asking me to do it cos they couldn't succeed.
All their friends already went off and some were waiting for them but this guy, the taller one was so funny. He went " No, wait, i gotta get this to work, man! i can do this, wait!"
HAHA.
This couple of huge old guys came in at night. So cheerful. I said hello, welcome to them and they went "Hello!!" really loudly. All of them. happy vacation for them. :D
They stood by the swords and one of them said " think we could get that through the metal detectors?"
And they started highing and laughing to themselves. "NO, MAN, IT'S MY TOOTHPICK!" LOL
Gosh the people, who go in the shop. So amusing. heehee. okay i shall go off to work now.
Somehow i miss socialising with you guys. I must make some day free to go out. XD
i want long black socks and a ring.
