i think KFC has no brains.
Ok i'm talking about before the GST hike, which made their prices more expensive so it kinda makes a little more sense though still quite dumb.
Have you all eaten Shrooms Meal before? If you haven't, you either hate fast food or you live under a rock, so i suggest you go try it it's the most cost-efficient meal in the world.
It used to cause a paltry $2.55, before they realised the potential in it as EVERYONE was buying it cos it was ridiculously worth it and hence they jacked the price up to $2.75.
(20 cents seems small, but multiply it by several thousand a day..)
And many people won't just buy that meal alone, because what is KFC without the best dish in the whole restaurant, the delicious CHEESE FRIES? So people will upsize the whipped potato to cheese fries at the cost of $1.20 (used to be $1, again before they realised the huge potential in cheese fries) so the meal costs $3.95, all let's just take it as $4.00.
THEN, im sure you should know that KFC has these student meals offers, like some set will be at a special price for students. e.g. Zinger burger + drink , etc.
and they all cost $4.
The STUPID thing is that one particular combo is of Cheese Fries + Pepsi
Yep, it costs $4.
Where is the logic? So because you are a student you are more gullible so they try to cheat you of your money with this stupid 'offer'?
Ok in case you are really blur and don't draw the parallel : If you buy the Shrooms Meal +upsize to Cheese Fries, you get an additional Shrooms burger AT THE SAME PRICE as that student meal offer. (yes i know 5 cents cheaper to be exact)
With the GST hike the price of Shrooms Meal went up to $3.00 so i guess it's less stupid, but you can pay just 20cents more and get a shrooms burger as compared to that stupid cheese fries student 'offer'. So.
Gogo order that stupid student meal cheese fries, then pretend to think at the counter, then say 'OOPS sorry can i change my order' and then change it to shroomsmeal+cheese fries to irritate the KFC people =)

Ah, first day of school after the prelims. The feeling now is kinda weird, it's like, i dont really wanna slack in school anymore. Got back 3 subjects' results, chemistry, physics and math. Got B for Chem, A for the other 2. Quite satisfied =) I worked hard this time (unlike BT2) so if i did badly i'd be devastated.
just hope i dont do terribly for GP, i know i screwed up the paper :S hope at least a .. C ? ok maybe D. ahhh.
Several of my friends are all stopping their game habits by the end of this week. Why why?? Not as if they're gonna study ALL the time. Realistically speaking, i don't think i will stop gaming. Not because i'm addicted or anything, i dont mind going out with friends instead of gaming or what, but... if i dont play games, there is nothing to look forward to after studying and there is nothing else to do when im resting from a day of studying.
Grawrl.

damn im too nice
ah, prelims finish today woo. had physics MCQ, which was terribly bad considering the fact that it was terribly easy. well ok not super easy but A was pretty achievable. but i made ALOT of careless mistakes!!! damn irritating can. question say 'decrease by 90%' i read as 'decrease to 90%'
Then on my way home , between the MRT and my house, this indian man approached me asking for $1.50 to buy some spices or dunno what shit. our conversation went something like this:
indian : excuse me boy excuse me
nicekindgenerousme: -inquisitive look-
indian: can you.. er you speak english right, ya of course, er do you have a dollar, i need to buy spices and i'm a dollar fifty short.
nicekindgenerousme: where you going to buy from
indian: the market there
nicekindgenerousme: the market's closed. (for washing)
indian: ya the place near the market, there's a spice shop there, around there, or maybe sheng shiong
nicekindgenerousme: sheng shiong is that way -points in opposite direction which man came from-
indian: ya i know , shengshiong is there - points in some direction abit off from what i pointed- , but i usually buy from the shop near the market, so ill go check there first, if dont have maybe i go sheng shiong.
nicekindgenerousme: -considers a while-
indian: if you dont want it's ok , i mean, it's up to you. (he mentions some nonsense about from the heart or sth lidat but i didnt catch it )
nicekindgenerousme: -reaches into pocket - how much do you need?
indian: a dollar.. actually a dollar fifty if you have 2 dollars -holds up a 50cent coin-, that'll be exact.
nicekindgenerousme: -takes out a knife and robs the indiansucker of all his money which comprised of alot of dollar-fifties which he conned from other people-
that'll teach you to con ppl you piece of shit!
-walks away triumphantly leaving an A knife scar on his forehead-
( a for alan)
ok no obviously that didn't happen. i gave him 2 dollars and he gave me the 50cent and thanked me profusely and said god bless and all the usual nonsense.
DAMMIT! i really gotta think faster and be less kindhearted. i was trying to test him i think when i kept trying to attack what he said (market closed, etc) , he responded quite normally so .. grr.
then when i told my mom about it she scolded me and told me about all the cheating monks and people around that area and singapore and told me to read newspapers more and that i got ggpwnd.
