fly away from here

the near death of my beloved mustard..

start rant/

after a really productive (but tiring) day, filled with activities like registering at the doctor, going to the post office, visitng an art shop, visiting an art gallery opening, cleaning and packing my room, cooking lunch. thinking that i possibly saw some ghost thing in my hostel, doing laundry, ironing (and not in that order).. with the intention of rewarding myself with a nice supper i go into my kitchen at around eleven something 12, and find my bottle of mustard uncapped and sitting on the kitchen counter.. it's broken cap lying on the floor in a small pool of it's own "blood"..

and i'm just like.. what the bloody hell.. now i got 4 other flatmates so it's got to be one of them.. i hear noise coming wan-jun's room.. so i go knocking on it and asking if she did it or knows what the hell happened.. and i mean internally i'm kinda annoyed but i was really calm and relaxed on the outside.. she said she didn't do it and maybe Al did it 'cause he was making dinner there just now.. and i know he usually sleeps pretty late so i go knock on his door and he comes out in his bathrobe saying he didn't do it but he did see the mess.. my other two flatmates were probably sleeping already so i didn't get to ask them.. and i'm so annoyed at this point that i don't feel like eating.. but later i felt so annoyed that i just had to eat.. that's how messed up i was.. so i cleaned up the mustard crime scene.. threw away the broken bottle cap and put aluminium foil over it as a cap..

i mean firstly.. if you break the bottle cap it's not that big a deal or that big a catastrophe.. just clean up the mess and leave me a note.. you don't even have to buy me a new one.. i won't kill you or anything.. it's just mustard.. it's MY FREAKING FAVOURITE KIND OF MUSTARD.. but it's just mustard.. and i mean.. i'm assuming whoever did it dropped the bottle on the floor and that's why the cap broke and it's innards just got spewed all over.. but i mean.. hello?? you put the bottle nicely back on the counter and left everything else on the floor.. eh?? and my other two flat mates, wan-jun and al, you guys saw the mess and just left it there? it's like smack right in the middle of our pretty damn small kitchen.. sighs..

and i don't know why the hell this is annoying and upsetting me so.. but i'm pretty upset about it.. garh stupid me -.-

anyway.. i called up one of my other hostel mates.. i knew she was still awake 'cause we just did laundry not too long ago.. ranted to her for a bit.. she was nice enough to offer to come over (she's in the block next to mine) and help me clean it up but by then i had cleared up the mess already and even if i hadn't i wasn't going to make her come over just to help me at that hour.. just wanted to verbally rant it out to someone..

anyway i wrote a post-it note asking whoever did it to just tell me if my mustard is still clean enough to be eaten.. and i didn't do it in a pissed-off way or whatever.. i do want to get along with my flatmates and they do seem like pretty nice people.. in the end i just warmed up half of this kfc wrap thing in the oven (there's no oven toaster over here!! and i can't find one or find someone who knows what i'm talking about, well other than the singaporeans.. the toasters over here are for like, well.. toast.. bread).. took out my wasabi peas to munch.. and by the end of that i pretty much cooled down..

/end rant

and on a somewhat related note.. if you're looking for good mustard go out and get this one:



it's my favourite and trust me it's one of the best.. well i think it's the best but i just added in a little disclaimer for the sake of it..

i love mustard =) the chinese mustard is really really good too..

oh and i'm going to reply to tags here since there are a few this time round..

rou: i like my outfit too! and so did one of the creepy guys who sorta followed us back that day.. urgh.. and er i need to shop at cheaper places.. or wait till i get back to singapore.. which would be really depressing ..
