mom introduced one of the restaurant's chefs to her friend...

mom's friend:  'i already know you...  i see your pictures in her fb...'

haha...  reminds me of a former officemate...  so someone was waiting for me outside our building and my officemate tells me she greeted him  ->  then she suddenly remembered they don't know each other <-  she actually just saw him in my facebook account.

unbeknownst

at a buffet food outlet...  brother pointed out to me where the drinks are...

hehe...  thanks...

actually, i know the place...  i even had a birthday celebration there two years ago...

my mom was telling me she told one of the staff it was her first time there...

the staff told her her daughter has been there several times...

the daughter is me...  : )

you may not always be a part of my day but you will always be a part of my life...  ; )

sashimi

at a buffet's japanese station...

sister, pointing to tuna:  'i'll have that, please...  just one slice...'

me:  'me, too...  but five slices, please...'

ei, i'm older...  and taller...  and...  whatever...  ;")

presented my frequency card at the counter...

cashier:  'ma'am has been buying just cakes!'

me:  'oh...  does it have to be different items?'

cashier:  'no...  it just has to be at least P90...'

me:  'just P90?  is it okay if you stamp me extra?  the cakes cost so much more than P90...'

cashier:  'sorry, ma'am...  just one stamp per receipt...'

aw...  next time i'll buy the cake in slices  ->  to be paid separately...  ; )

sister:  'you had a haircut...'

me:  'i cut it myself...'
[i've been cutting my own hair for years now.]

sister:  'yeah...  it has to be shorter still though...'

me:  'really?  ok...  i'll cut some more later...'

there's no queue between you and yourself...  get things done quickly...  ; )
