3rd Person

She was in serious trouble. A hall mate of hers, who was based in Thailand these days had called her out. To have some coffee and chat, before he went back to Thailand again. But, there was this small issue that she had to deal with first. She had to find some reason to postpone the online discussion she was supposed to have with her project-mate.

She was aware of the severity of the situation, the project was not moving very smoothly, and she realised that her project mate was this close ( ) to pressing the panic button.

BUT... this was no time to procrastinate. Friends or studies, which comes first. She decided, friends shall be ranked higher this time round. She sms-ed, emailed and left offline msges for her project mate. She will make up for this absence next time.

She was approaching Burger King and her good friend was there. It was good to see him, it's been more than a year since they last met up. She heard news that he had gotten himself a new girlfriend. "That's good," she thought, "then he would have companionship while he was abroad all by himself"

As she sat down after the normal round of greetings, her stomach went "Mayday! Two slices of bread since morning is not good enough to last till dinner!", but she was caught in a dilemma again. For, fast food was evil, meaning, it contains evil calories. Besides, she was really broke, and she couldn't really afford a lot of meals outside.

But she decided to give in to the dark side. She ordered the cheapest meal available, which set her back by $5.20. (wahh.. lemme rant... gosh!! The day when I am heartbroken over $5.20 has gotta be the stupidest thing in the world!~!) She even finished all the fries!! o.O she had sinned...

That evening, she met up with another ex-colleague, after parting with her buddy from hall. To watch a movie called "casshern" which was macabre... but... interesting. Not suitable for the faint of soul, or for those who were not into the Japanese psyche... to top off the Japanese flavour for the night, they went to have a late dinner at Mos Burger.

They were hemming and hawing at the counter, and the lady at the cashier taking orders was giving them the evil eye. A quick check revealed, this was the FIRST time they were eating a meal in Mos Burger. They have had drinks and stuff, but never a meal. They were both unaware of what meal sets there were available. She decided to go with the Yakiniku Rice Burger set. It was good, but unsatisfying. Too little, too small.

But, since she was supposed to be on a diet, it was still "acceptable" she tried to comfort herself.

Crap.. writing in 3rd person has gotta be the stupidest thing in the world. Bahh...
