I don't like wasting time in long queues. Someone could tell me that a restaurant served great food and that I should try but I would give it a miss if I were to see a long queue of people waiting to get a table. Wait 30 minutes to an hour to get a table? Mental!
I was in the lift and a couple was talking:
H: The queue was so long. At least 10 cars in front of me. Queue till the road outside.
W: So many cars?
H: Yah. Chinese New Year's eve. Every year is like that. I waited almost 50 minutes to have the car washed.
W: How much?
H: $8. (Seeing AK in the lift. H smiled and asked.) You got your car washed?
AK: Yes, I washed it myself.
H: Wah! You have the time to do it?
AK: Haha... Took me 30 minutes. The shampoo and sponge cost me $6.50. Good for at least 20 washes. Way cheaper than going to a car wash too...
I think I said too much. The husband's smile faded but luckily the lift reached their floor and they got off then. I hope I did not step on someone's foot.
Actually, I see rather long queues at car washes all the time. It is not just during festive seasons.
Wait 30 minutes to an hour to pay people to do something that I could easily do? Definitely mental!
GONG XI FA CAI (to the people washing cars too)!

That was straight in their face, woah.
Anyway, when u practice such habits, you are already having a "Huat". Having good financial knowledge is another "Huat". Knowing how to make use of CPF is also a "Huat"
So all the "Huat" can be gained thr knowledge and habits. No need go temple or throw coins at well to ask for "Huat"
CNY theme ;)
Once again, Happy CNY. Huat argh
Haha AK,
I think u did step on his toe. LOL
Happy new year
Hi Gary,
Gong Xi Fa Cai! ;)
Hi Solace,
Aiyoh, it wasn't my intention to be in their face. I meant no harm. Really. I just said what was on my mind. -.-"
Actually, I do visit temples regularly to meditate and make donations but with the intention of helping the less fortunate. ;p
Gong Xi Fa Cai! Huat ah! :D
Hi Mike,
Totally unintended. Honest. Hope it didn't sting too much. -.-"
Happy CNY! :D
You have big feet lah. :)
Hi SMK,
I didn't like wearing shoes much as a youth. I was always in slippers. Feet grew a bit too big as a result. -.-"
That was direct!
Unless the washing standard in SG can be as good as those in JB including interior vacuum, I will be washing it myself for a long while.
Hi Chris,
I guess that confirms it. I stepped on someone's foot big time. -.-"
