a housewife alone at home, obsessed with playing hexic. needed a better way of wasting time so am trying (and loving) this blog thing. use to be a teacher. was once good at expressing thoughts into words, into sentences. now, words are mispronounced, sentences are jumbled... and i regret opening my mouth. this is a story of my life living in a somewhat small town in the midwest. a life i share with my husband chot and our adventures trying to fix a 54 year old house.

Autumn
I am not good with names. By the time i remember half of the names of my students in a particular school year, it'd be time for the cuti hujung tahun.
anywhoo, despite being bad at names, i still remember the cashier's name at Lowe's... AUTUMN. we went in to put in our order for a kitchen countertop and mannnn... made my blood boil.
she's what we would call in malaysia "bodoh sombong"... how ngok can you be??... chot and I were lost for words, macamana nak explain in simpler english. she just couldn't/ wouldn't get it... pas tu pi campak2 ajek receipt... so rude.
hidung tinggi sungguh.
moral of the story... jangan sombong... jangan bodoh... jangan jadik macam autumn...

yeah i remember your horrific knack for un-remembering names!
:-D but, seriously? nama dia Autumn? hell yeah, i'd definitely remember that name...lagi la kalau dah rude seperti itu.. u shud call her Fall instead...Fall From Grace :-(
u know what?? i think kalau nama pompuan tu generic siket, i won't be able to remember... being that her name is extra ordinary sampai tua win ingat.
so i guess it has nothing to do with her being on my nerves as to caused me to remember her...
i still suck at it... aaa hello?? nama awak sapa??... hahaha
