last weekend i helped my cousin out at her booth at the thai festival. meaning, i camped at the thai embassy with packets of ice and bottles of wine for five days. it was pretty interesting actually. e stuff is the same every day so its not like u can buy alot of stuff. but it was fun to get to know e backstage people at the fair. like e organisers, the sound engineers, etc. and the food was absolutely awesome. luckily i had five days to try all the food at the fair. haha. i didnt eat every single thing la, but i tried everything i wanted to :) and they were giving free manicures! obviously not e same kind u get at a real manicure but its good enough for me man. i went for a manicure twice! haha. got bright pink nails e first time. e second time i came back with this really pretty dark purple and glittery nails. omg i love that colour. its just gorgeous. really! haha. the second last night of the fair was fun. they had some performance at the stage in front of our booth so there was super alot of people hanging around there. business wasnt good coz everyone was already drinking the singha beer like theres no tmr, and no damage to our poor livers. but e organiser and some friendly stallholders actually koped lotsa food and beer for us and came over to chill at our booth man. that was a good night man.

last night our dearest lala and i finished e rest of my bacardi at pizzeria. we were damn high after that. shanker's drunk friend was there too den he kept telling us long long stories about goodness knows what. lala and i were super amused that he and shanker sounded exactly the same. they have e exact same accent and pronounce some words in e exact same way la. prob coz their both nepalese. and his friend loved to use the word appreciate. every other sentence he said has appreciate in it. like, i appreciate you because you appreciate rum. i appreciate your friend's perfume. the customer appreciated me. we were trying our best not to laugh in front of him man. and we didnt even know he was drunk until at the end when he told us this totally contradicting story. coz he didnt look in the least bit drunk. but the story gave him away man. it totally didnt make sense. haha.

after that we went down to watch germany vs croatia. im sure you guys know e outcome of e match. after that i went home and had e scariest cab ride of my life man. firstly the cab driver looked kinda scary, not the uncle uncle kinda cab drivers which i feel so safe with. haha. and den he asked me how to go to lornie road. i wasnt sure either so i just said go by adam road. den he said adam road very long, do you want to go by mount pleasant? i wasnt sure where that was so i just said okay. and i tell you mount pleasant is e scariest route you can ever go alone with a cab driver at three am in the morning. if a cab driver ever tells you to go by there, say NO! after e cab driver turned into mount pleasant den he told me some women wld rather pay more to go by thomson road coz mount pleasant is really quiet. i was like thanks for telling me only now man. good job. mount pleasant is a nightmare at night. honestly. its really dark and quiet and winding. the kinda road that if u scream no one will hear. when he turned in i was like SHIT this is how people get murdered man. and it seemed to last forever! on and on and on. i was like come on already! but the alcohol was super calming so i cldnt bring myself to panic even though my brain was screaming ming ming you're in deep shit! what if its a dead end and e road doesnt lead anywhere?! cant tell you how relieved i was to see the green thomson road sign. i was like THANK GOD!!!! never been so grateful to get home in one piece man. and if i ever meet another cab driver who recommends MOUNT PLEASANT im gonna whack the shit outta him. haha. now you know guys, be warned!!!!
