A trip to the Market

Saturday


That saturday morning, I was awoke by my mummy... haiz... these few days kept running errands for her... kind of fed up at times... this time... I need to go to the market to purchase some goceries...

Man! Are you kidding me? I usually accompany her to purchase... Now, I'm going on my own? What? Haiz... My mum asked me to purchase sheng yu... good for healing after operation...

So here I was taking a bus to the wet market... I was nervous... All were old aunties and uncles... no offences... I was looking kind of weird I guess... I was looking for the shop that my mum was talking about to buy the sheng yu...

Finally found it... Standing in front of the shop... why nobody? Then an uncle? came...
"Yes"
"I want shengyu"
I think he felt strange...
"oh shengyu ar... is it that?"
(he pointed to a transparent container pretty far away)
I was blur... one was because I could not really see how the fish inside the container looked like as it was so damn far away... and another was that I did not know how in the world the shengyu look like... I just assume that it looked like some kind of fish look...
"huh?"
the uncle seeing I was so blur... he asked something to confirm if i had asked for the right thing...
"is it for operation one?"
I was delighted.
"ya" I think I did nod my head forcefully...
"okay, one for $5"
"I want 2 of them"
"is for operation one rite?"he asked again.
"yap, I want sheng yu pian as well."
"what else do you want?" I thought I just said? Nvm...
"sheng yu pian... $5..."
"okay, u come back and collect later I'll prepare them."

So I headed off to shop my goceries... shop for some potatoes and tomatoes... then went to another veggies shop... I oberved how some aunties took their veggies... I did it too... since I have no idea as nobody attended to me... haiz... maybe they saw me some kiddo... haiz...

I passed the basket of veggie to auntie to count...
"$6"
I was shocked... I stared at her blank... so expensive man!
I just gave 6 bucks to her...
then I dunno why she gave me some cong for free... haha! she must have done something guilty... whatever...

then bought some fishball and fish... then went back to collect shengyu and that was all for my 1st trip to wet market on my own... WOW!

I just wanna say... I don't want to become a housewife man! haiz... so xin ku! 3 cheers to all mothers and housewives! Especially to my mum! =)

while other people were in school learning new knowledge, trying to adapt... I was learning to become a housewife I guess... haiz...

learning how to cook... wash the clothes... hang the clothes... sweep the floor and mop the floor... so tiring... haiz... just endure! =)

all the best to me! =)
