Say ‘Good night!’ and Go

While surfing around the other day, I came across a site that sold compatible batteries for my Kodak EasyShare LS755. The last time I was in KL, the search was futile. All the shops I went to did not stock the KLIC-7000. One proprietor said that the model that I had was not sold in Malaysia. I don’t quite believe that, because when it first came out, there were reviews on it in the magazines. If they didn’t sell the camera here, they wouldn’t have printed the price in RM, would they? If the guy had said that the model was discontinued, I would have believed him.

Anyways, I ordered the battery yesterday (sent the Purchase Order around 3:26pm) and waited for the ‘e-mail from personnel’. Nothing arrived in my Inbox this morning. Since I was online on YM, I decided to add them as my contact. I asked about the status of my order and received a response before 11am. I was told that I could bank in the money without waiting for the e-mail because the ‘.com.my e-mail is slow’.

After telling him that I was unemployed, he then asks me if I was interested in Herbalife products. I had to explain to him that I wasn’t the type of person who could sell stuff to people. Besides, I look unhealthy with my skinny wrists. I had to drop a few medical terms such as arachnodactyly and Marfans Syndrome. Then he says that I could always sell online. This guy doesn’t seem to quit! Well, as it was already past noon, I took my leave. If all else fails, I’ll just say I’m broke and I have no money to invest and I’m not going to borrow money from anybody.

Went to the bank at 2:36pm and I looked for the form to fill. I asked the security guard and he instructed me to inquire with the bank officer (of course, how silly of me). After waiting for the people in front of me to get their queue tickets, I asked the man and he said that I just had to use the transaction machine. First I joined a queue in front of one machine, and after waiting for a bit and looking at the other machine (no queue), I figured I was at the wrong machine. I do believe the first machine I was queuing up at was the Cash Deposit Machine. XD Anyways, I inserted my card and followed the instructions. I had written down the account number in a small notepad and then realized that I had omitted an additional zero. How did I realize it? Well, I distinctly remember thinking to myself, “There are three zeroes, I mustn’t make a mistake and omit one zero!”

Do I actually check the number I wrote down to see if all the zeroes were there? NO! It was a good thing that I decided to add the extra zero when I was prompted and the correct account information was displayed. Yaay for remembering, and boo for not checking when I told myself to be careful. *slaps forehead*.

I was done in less than 10 minutes. Easy-breezy-one-two-threesy!

Then my Mum and I crossed the road to Pustaka Seri Intan (a book and stationery store) to get an i-Talk card. What irks me is that Mum wants me to buy the card. What if I wasn’t there? Would she wait until Dad comes home (release date yet to be determined by my sister) and not make any calls? She’s a Malaysian citizen. She knows Malay and does just fine buying her groceries alone at the Payang Market/Pasar Payang. What’s up with that?

She’s the one who keeps telling me that if I don’t know anything, ASK! Hmmm…oh well. Just had to get that off my chest.
