The Q & A

Why do they have the Question and Answers section in beauty contests? I keep telling my friends the Q&A is for testing hearing ability and they just won't believe. Yes, just to check if you are deaf, and NOT if you are dumb ... 'cos we already know the latter.

The Cake Shop Assistant

There is a small but growing number of expatriates staying around the Woodlands HDB market area. So it is quite common to see a Ang Moh at the hawker centre struggling with his chopsticks and mee pok.I think to him the chopsticks feels more like two conductor's batons than cutlery.

So I was standing next to this Caucasian guy trying to buy a piece of cake from the local bakery. And the conversation between him and a very patient Chinese aunty was funny and endearing:

Ang Moh : What is this?

Aunty : This one pang lang (pandan) cake.

Ang Moh : And this?

Aunty : This one war nut (walnut) cake.

Ang Moh : And this?

Aunty : This one got chookerlate (chocolate) inside. Very nice one.

Ang Moh : You got Blueberry?

Aunty : No bluebelly, here got chelly (cherry), got leng mong (lemon), got or leng (orange).

Ang Moh : I want a Blueberry cake.

Aunty : No bluebelly. Hot log (hotdog) can?

Ang Moh : hmm .. I think I will just have two doughnuts.

Aunty : ok. you buy three two lollars (dollars).

Ang Moh : Also can.

This is real talent
