home alone

the other day i bought this super cheap supposedly-nonstick pot and pan set from carrefour. actually i only wanted a pot coz the lady took it with her when she moved out. i suppose it could be hers so fine, but she also took the mop pail which is MINE. but i guess i can do without it coz i only mop like once or twice a sem. so if i need it maybe i can borrow yours, naz? hehe.

but i digress. back to the pot and pan. the set was even cheaper than the a pot by itself so being a cheapskate, i got the set. last night i washed them and cooked maggi in the pot. it stank. it was kinda a burnt smell, but not quite. but i ignored it and didn't understand why until, well, i can't remember how i realised it, but it was because of the pot. by then, i'd already and eaten the noddles. so i boiled water in the pot and pan a few times and left them to soak. then today i came home from uni and found some rust. and the smell is still there. bleagh. what a waste.

then i went to find alvin at michelle's place to collect rent and told him about it. i came home with a pan which he says belonged the the previous tenant of this apartment, 4 packets of beepang which his mom gave him and he doesn't want, and 2 persimmons. i didn't even know what the fruits were. i just made a guess at the name, googled it, and discovered i was right. here's a pic of a persimmon, in case you don't know.

right. anyway, the moral of this story is: don't be so cheapskate. and carrefour scams people. there's some scam about the milo, i think, and something else, i can't remember what. so yea, be carreful of carrefour. haha.
