So many things......
So many errands to run yesterday... The bright sun and humid weather made it worst anyway everything was done within time. First was running between hospitals (KK & SHG) trying to get some medicines for my mum. After that was to change currency (Uhmm there was a story for this, shall share later haha) followed by queue for an hour in the bank just to get a new passbook. My petrol ran low, my energy low, my level of patience low but my temperature very high! DAMN HUMID!!!
I started from 1130hrs and get everything done by 1630hrs. The next thing I did was to pack my luggage, well, that took only about half an hour. I can still nap for half an hour before I met Sitilok for dinner.
In order to cool me down he suggested the very nice Japanese restaurant that Anna brought us a few months ago. Uhmmm not a bad idea, I like the food there. There was communication breakdown between us because I thought he would pick me up while he thought meet at the restaurant hahaha luckily he called me and asked me where was I.... (I was cutting my nails at home lor hahaha)
Though it was 6plus in the evening, it took me only 10 minutes to drive there. The moment I reached, we started to order all that we like on the menu. SOooooo nice....while enjoying the food, we were talking about my Bali trip...then I mentioned about the currency that I changed.
Sitilok: Eh so how many millions you have?
Me: No leh, only 85k mah
Sitilok: No lah 850k lah, how can it be 85k
Me: No leh, 85k leh
Sitilok: Uh? What color notes?
Me: Red, blue...cant remember
Sitilok: Uhmm do you know 85k cannot even pay the airport tax??? No one will change 85k lor, 85k can only like....buy 2 simple meals... and its like... $20 leh...
Me: UHH??? Is it?
Sitilok: No lah I think its 850k lah
Me: No leh.... I thought I really counted 85k... EHHH I think still in my wallet!
Check out the notes.... SHIT, 85k!
Sitilok: WHere u change????????........
Me: *TOTALLY NO MOOD and WANTED TO CRY* Golden mile lah... *HOW? Not even enough to pay tax???*
Sitilok: Go back and get lah

Sitilok:.... uhmmm.....

Me: Uhmmm should go back or not???
Sitilok: GO lah, I teach you how to say, you dont argue with them, cannot be angry must be cool...tell them nicely "Hello, this afternoon I changed these currency, I think you may have made a mistake"....

Sitilok: AI ya dont think lah go now lah, you also got no mood to eat already....

I left my car near the restaurant while Sitilok sent me there. He waited in the car while I went down to get ready to "reason" with the person.
Me: Hello uncle, *palpitations* this afternoon I came to change currency, I think you made a mistake, according to my friend, I am supposed to have 850k not 85k.... *miserable, innocent look on my face*.... *DIe lah what would he reply???*
Uncle: Ohhhhhh yeah! We kept the money for you! Luckily you came back, we were waiting!
Me: UHhhhh REALLY AH!!!!!!! *GRIN*
Uncle: Yeah yeah... these are the balance!
Me: Uncle, thank you leh, you are so HONEST!

We had "celebration" in drinkerz hahaha opened a bottle of martell and finished my left over chivas!
