RAISE YOUR GAME

This is my daily reminder for you to vote in my poll (yes, you!). CLUSTRMAP said my site was visited in 41 locations yesterday, but all I have at the moment is a disastrous 8 f*cking votes! That is not good.

On Tuesday, @ 7am I stopped at Marks and Spencer to buy myself my lunch, also to buy my patient her present as it is her birthday (She's now 54). Now, this lady is an Elvis fan, and I dont think M/S has Elvis items in their shelves, so I just pulled a box of chocolates. As it was her birthday, she woke up really early, so by 830am she was already in the lounge, opening her gifts. I gave her a card, and I wrote:

To ____,


Happy 54th Birthday!


Always,

Kris Jasper and kids.

and when I gave her presents I informed her that those chocolates were Elvis's favorites, so she was happy with that. I dont have kids yet, but it's as if I have committed a crime.

Today is Wednesday, the sun went up so I had to wake up. But just before rising, I was dreaming of Popeyes Chicken and Biscuits, Im sure I could smell it. Then I woke up and I realized my nose was facing A's mouth.

I went to BOOTS (in Bullring Mall) coz I have this prescription of new drug to take. I was prescribed with a new drug so I was excited. I love my medications. My medications stabilize me. The chemist said to come back after 10 minutes (they will label my drug + instructions).

10 minutes? That worried me.

I was in the mall.

I have had 10 minutes to wait.

I have my Goldcard with me.

So @ 1030am, I went to TopMan, bought myself a new longsleeve shirt coz all of my clothes are big for me now. So I tried small and I was happy with that.

Then I went to River Island, I needed a black skinny necktie. So I bought myself a black skinny necktie. (I changed my image this month, so for the last 2 weeks I was wearing a tie).

Then @ 1130am, I saw myself in the Filipino store. I bought Reeses bar, and more Filipino food that I could physically carry, and guess what, they have "itlog na maalat", and I miss eating that so I bought them as well.

I was about to go home then I remember my precious drug. So I went back to BOOTS and it was another lady who helped me. She said "SURNAME?" (now, if it's me I will say "WHAT IS YOUR SURNAME?" - coz I am polite, but this lady looks like from Eastern Europe, maybe she moved here in England for the promise of a better life, so she doesnt speak good English, so I will just forgive that). So I told her my Surname, but because both of us are foreigners, she did not get it correctly, so I was asked to write it in that plain piece of paper. She still had difficulty looking for my drug, after 5 minutes I saw her coming, I thought she will ask for my fingerprints, my blood sample or perhaps my DNA, but she only gave me my drug.

"PUT IT IN FRIDGE- APPLY TWICE A DAY" she said.

I wanted to ask, "WHAT MISS? THE ICE?", but because she's a foreigner who doesnt speak English well, so I will just forgive that. She came to this country for a better life, and not to be insulted.

Passing McDonalds, I saw a pair of teenagers. We will call them paper boy and paper girl. They are so white and skinny, and I was charmed. They looked like they eat toilet rolls for breakfast, paper for lunch and cardboard for dinner. That was f*cking nice!

I was about to ask them their recipes for cooking papers, but I noticed that Paper Boy was holding a bag of McDonalds. I looked at him, helpless, while he put those fries in his mouth. He is so perfect that he is ruining it. Maybe it is just McDonalds today, but surely, after discovering that salted foods are better than eating paper, he (and even she) will wander around to hunt for more fast food meals. Until it's too late for them to understand that they already are fat! Poor Paper Boy... He was nearly perfect (so white and semi-anorexic) but he is ruining it. Shame...

@ 1430hrs, I went to the gym. While I was doing my arms, I heard Ms. Personal Trainer telling those 2 gorillas in front of me to use the machine properly (as they were banging it, recklessly). But they were just ignoring Ms. PT. So Ms. PT went to our area and told them, but they were still ignoring her.

I maintained an emotionless face coz I didnt want to be involved, but when Ms. PT and my eyes met, I tried conveying this message: "You're so fit, how do you cook papers?"; But her eyes were telling me this instead: "Look at these ignorant losers". So in that milli second, my shallow brain tried to weigh my ignorance and breeding, and one word was found in my brain: SUICIDAL. So what the heck, I said it: "Hey! She's talking to you 2". But those 2 gorillas ignored me as well. So I told Ms. PT that perhaps they are deaf? (selective hearing more likely)
Ms. PT went downstairs to ask for reinforcements, and I moved to a different area to do my legs.

I hope those 2 gorillas will forget my face... or I'm doomed!

Hello the Dong and Dazed Blu....

@ RED: yeah, nakagwa na gani... haha... but guess what, my router is not working. Luckily, our neighbour's network is unsecured so that is what I have been using for the last 2 days. My new router will arrive tomorrow.

@ joaqui: Hahaha... I'll wear the tie on Saturday, and the shirt on Monday. I actually was supposed to post them fotos but I was in hurry yesterday, so I'll wear them instead. then post them.
