So humid it makes me want to barf.

It really has been really humid.

Dinner last night was Japanese again, this time at Tomoe. But I didn't mind. It was actually quite good and cheaper than the night before. On Friday night, we were tossing up between the two places, and chose one. We should have gone with the other, but none of us had ever tried it out, so we went with what was safe. Next time.

Today, the usual breakfast with extended family (although I must say that numbers are dwindling, slowly but surely), then second breakfast at 10th mile, for the reknowned kolo mee. Apparently people from all over Kuching and beyond 'make the 20 minute drive' (accordingly to a newspaper cutout they proudly display on their cigarette cabinet) to eat here. I thought my noodles were a bit hard, but I've never been a big fan of kolo mee...

Went for futsal training - another comp coming up! But I think I've cracked the toe nail on the big right toe, which probably means that I really should get new shoes, because the tops of my current pair are wearing out. The coach also wants each of us to get a ball. As in a futsal ball, not a ... never mind. That'll be at least 12 balls every training session!! Sounds a bit much, no? That's a lot of things I have to get. And new sunnies. Mine kinda broke, a little :) Did you know that 80% of UV rays are absorbed by the time you turn 18 or something?? Better get the kids started early on them.

Speaking of kids...Observation made last night at dinner is that parents who can't be bothered entertaining kids just seem to give them Gameboys, even when eating out. Either that, or it's the only way to keep them quiet and in their seats. Same goes for kids reading during meals, at home or eating out. Should the 'educational' aspect of reading justify this? It still seems quite rude and anti-social nevertheless.

Also, this morning sis pointed out a little girl who decided to sit on the floor of the coffee shop when we were having kolo mee. It was gross!! The floor was wet, dirty, all the things you expect a coffee shop floor to be, and we were surprised the mother didn't start yelling straightaway for the girl to stand up. It was making me really queasy after that kolo mee, just thinking about that dirty floor, and that girl eating her breakfast. I would've taken her home right away to scrub her under the shower for 10 minutes. And douse her in antibac soap or something. Anything!

p.s. Note to self: must NEVER start playing the pokies. Started playing this free online game called bejewelled. Takes a bit of thinking but I think what I'm really drawn to are the flashing lights and satisfying sound everytime you get 3 or more jewels in a row!! Haha.

p.p.s Having worked at the pokies, I'm sure Ben would find this highly unamusing. He probably will tell me off for even suggesting addiction to the pokies. Don't worry, I'll stick to the free game for now.
