Stunning the Teacher

Participant: “Do I get a refund if I’m not satisfied with the class?”

Teacher: “Er … ” (nervous laughter)

The above actually happened yesterday evening. I bet you the “teach” never had such a question thrown her way before. Reason could be the “asker” is not local.

Go figure that one out.

On the lighter side …

The other evening, I arrived at my sister’s to find the family dog in her usual place under the mango tree. She was looking into the distance, away from me.

As it didn’t look like she knew I was there, I called out.

“Greenie!”

No response.

Tried again.

“Greenie!”

Still no response.

Third try:

“Oi!”

She turned and looked at me.

Ensure or Enrich?

As part of his get well regime ordered by his doctor, my father takes Ensure, a complete nutritional supplement.

This morning, I received an email from my brother about our forthcoming trip to Singapore. In it, he mentioned the nutritional supplement which he wrongly called Enrich. I replied to correct him. His reply?

No wonder the man at the pharmacy looked at me strange when I asked if they carried Enrich.

Enrich is Malaysia Airlines’ frequent flyer programme.

Little does he know

One of the younger bloggers to attend Sunday’s meet-up commented in his Meet the Bloggers entry that I’m adorable. He later went on to say that he finds plenty of similarities in attitude in me and his mom.

I’m probably older than her, and … finally showing my age.

*yay* :mrgreen:
