0il
Before my appt. at N0rthP0int, I had my Ch0ng Pang nasi lemak. The same st0re I visited during the N5 days. But frankly, it brings back b0ring mem0ries. And it pains both my heart AND wallet when I have to go back in Jul/Aug for 2 weeks.
After the appt, I was contemplating on visiting our 'neighbour'. The thought of being stuck in the horrible jam put me off. I decided to go to the SPC station nearest my place.
They had this promo "Spend $50 and above and get a car wash at $3 only". So I went ahead to pump $60.
Fuck. It was less than half filled.
I went for the car wash. 2 men helped to clean, while I was forced to sit in the car to wait. At the place where I had my regular wash, I would simply throw the key to the guy and go off to fetch my dinner.
After a super brief wash, a woman came over to wipe it dry. It wasn't dried. Moist would be the correct/appropriate word.
No vaccum.
No interior cleaning.
No tire shining.
No smile from that woman. Not even the slightest hint of friendliness.
That reminds me why everyone prefers our 'neighbour'.
