what a day

today is the day where Ian, Xianjun, Benjamin, Konrad and I went to east coast after breakfast for cycling, bowling and lunch. i still cannot believe that i actually woke up early enough to get a decent meal. hehe. anyway, after we found each other at east coast, we went to rent the bikes. cost me $5. hmph. so we started cycling and i have to say that i was really lucky as i did not actually fall off the bike this time. then again, i was the slowest and somehow i dun think that it is my fault as the darned bike cant really go at a faster speed. not that i would want to be at the front where all ther others except me and ian were. oops, ian was there coz i dragged him to stay with me :P . but still, it was wonderful that we did not go tot he front as those people were going absolutely crazy and trying to knock one another off the bikes. if i actually went near them i would have definitely fell and regret going to cycling once more. dangerous people... so after about 2 hrs of cycling from one end to the other and passing all those weird places, we finally decided to return the bikes and my butt was hurting like mad. sry for the crude language. but it was really uncomfortable. i cant even walk properly! haha.
so we went to get a drink and set off to the bowling alley. and today is a very bad day for bowling for me. my score was so abysmal that is i ever get them in an exam i will definitely collapse straight away. it was simple pathetic. totally embarassing too. anyway, after rolling money down the darned drain, literally, we went to find a place to eat. those people were argueing about which place to eat. be it macdonalds or some weird japanese restaurant. and all i did was stand in the shade and comment on the weather which was only about a thousand degrees hot. anyway, after we confirmed that fadhil(who din want to eat that jap food) and i(who do not have money at all) can bring in food from macdonalds and after the staff telling us that we have to get lost by 230pm because of some rubbishy pest control, we finally went in to sit down. fadhil and i disappeared to macdonalds to get our food. this is where the 'fun' starts.
so we took different lanes and ordered at the same time, fadhil a big mac meal and mine a mcwings meal, but the trouble is, fadhil got his meal i dunno...20 minutes before i did? reason? simply because the East Coast macdonalds is PATHETIC! if i were to give it a grade i would give it lower than my bowling score and THATS saying sumthing. and this is not because i had problem with the branch the moment i stepped throught the threshold but because of the service attitude. as you all know now i did not have any money left so i will have to pay by EZ-link! this would be fine if ONLY the darned machine was working. somehow the cursed machine juz would not allow my card to pay for my meal, even though it was fine when it was checking the amount of money left or even adding points to it. so after tapping about 10 times the woman got quite sick of it and called "aunty moi" which is the root of all evil. this stupid hag in red showed up and started using whatever fabric like material that she could find to wipe down my ezlink card. from paper napkins to the FILTHY tablecloth. you have no idea how exasperating it is to see her dirty my precious card. so she tried for i dunno...a thousand times? she started getting fed up and said "ezlink cannot work lah...the machine is being fixed mah". so fadhil who has bought his meal about ten thousand years ago came and said "can check the balance and add points oso can say spoilt meh?" mind you my temper was simmering juz below boiling point. but apparently i wasnt the onli one. aunty noi here was like" it is not my system problem you know it is the card problem. see i can read the card but they say have error. its the card problem not the system" and so she expertly pushed the entire blame for the growing queue to me. and when we said that you can try to key into another computer she said "i cannot key in. even if i do it will not work" and its like HARLOW!!!!!YOU HAVENT EVEN TRIED!!!JUZ CANCEL THE ORDER AND GO TO THE NEXT COUNTER AND TRY IT LAH!!! unless the other counter is cursed and you will die once you press a single bloody button you should just try the darned thing! but NO she did not."cannot work one. the machine is being fixed...its the card problem. haf error..." IF THE THING DOES NOT HAF PROBLEM I WOULD BE LONG GONE LAH!!! waste of my time and energy. stupid staff they have there... hate that aunty moi. if the darned system have a problem then juz admit it and say sorry, can you pay with cash plz? which was exactly wad i did in the end with the help from fadhil. THANK GOODNESS. but NOOOO...aunty moi is ALWAYS RIGHT and it is the CUSTOMER'S fault, not the system's.
if any macdonalds staff ever reads this, please report it to the manager or sumthing that the service attitude of the aunty moi from Siglap macs is very bad and she should be banished to the kitchens and take the trash out. or juz fire her. that will do everyone good.
so the rest of the day nothing interesting happened. we ate and went home and now i am blogging. thats all.
