Another Lame One

What do vegan zombies have for breakfast? Grains! 

(Sorry, can't help it!)

The Roti Man

"Milo ais." I say.

He nods. "Makan?"

"Roti cheese pisang satu."

"Susu!" He agrees, somewhat aggressively.

"No susu! Cheese pisang." I correct him.

"Cheese satu."

"Cheese AND pisang."

"Satu cheese satu pisangg!" * triumphantly*

"No no no- cheese and pisang. Campor. Satu."

"Pisang?"

"Yah. Dengan cheese."

We both exchange forlorn, bewildered stares.

"Satu cheese...?" He tries again tentatively.

*nods head & gives somewhat encouraging smile*

"Dengan pisang. Cheese and pisang. Satu."

Finally, he nods in understanding. We get our order all right, but I can't help but think drooling trolls have a more efficient system of communication.

Roti cheese pisang, by the way, is very awesome and very recommended by the author. Good day y'all!

Self Discipline, yo!

Happy One Month vegan self!

Split Splat Lemon Whaaaat?

Yesterday, I got caught in a heavy shower while walking out to get some vegetarian food not two hundred and fifty steps beyond the hostel gates.

Thankfully, I have my red umbrella.

However, I vividly remember it sticking out from the paper box I shoved under the bed, in my room, which were some hundred steps back. While I was running to get it, I thought about the strange epilogue life signals us all ─ we always have the necessary paraphernalia to counter the lemons that life throws at us, but most of the time, those paraphernalia are locked up in the depths of our heart, and we waste an enormous amount of time (and energy) trying to find them. By the time we've found them, we have already been defeated by adversity."

You know now, always be prepared.

Study Woes

Business valuation, if you ask me, is like asking a mother how talented her son is. There is no possible way you'd be getting an objective answer.
