last night rui and i had this spending spree at topshop.
well she went a little crazy with the whole checkered blouses thingo.
i only bought a long grey cardi influenced by constance's picture of blair waldorf/leighton meester. (she's so chio!!) haiyo. but blake lively also very chio lah, i can't decide who i think is chio-er.

OKAY SOPHIA BACK TO THE DAMN POINT.

so yes, we were at the cash register and rui after mulling for like 2 secs, decided that she'd get her 2nd checkered blouse of the night. (nearly the same colour and design as the first one she bought an hour earlier EXCEPT its sleeves were short.)

please read ensuing conversation with cashier...... some guy lah.

rui: excuse me, how much do i have to spend in a single receipt to get a topshop card?
cashier: huh?
rui -raising her voice- : how much do i have to spend in a single receipt to get a topshop card?
cashier: -pause- OH YES, checkered prints are really IN this season!!!!!
rui: okay NEVERMIND.

the thing was he said it in such a convicted, self assured and hyped up tone.
wah lau eh, i tried stifling my laughter but cannot sia. i was snorting beside her so much that i had to walk away before i convulsed in laughter right in his damn face.

some people are so... this is the first time a person went THIS OFF COURSE in any conversation i've ever had or heard.

i knew men were from mars and women from venus but this guy literally came from the black hole and beyond lah...
