Lim has the Charms.

Went out with Lim today to apply as relief teachers at various schools around the area.

Went to apply at Fuchun Sec, Fuchun Primary then we decided we were hungry and went over to the CC to have our lunch. (At KFC if you must know.) Oh and the only thing I ever have at KFC are Cheese Fries (oh yes oh yes!) and fries.

Oh and that KFC is manned by the deaf. So the only way to order things was to point at the menu which was modified. Had everything in there.

When it was my turn to order, I looked at her, looked at the menu, stabbed my fingers vigorously at the cheese fries picture, looked at her again and showed her that I wanted 2 like this:




We had to wait for our cheese fries cause they ran short of it, but when it did come...

Mr Yeo Heelim had double the amount of cheese on HIS bloody plate of fries than I did! AND I THINK I CAN COOK UP A HYPOTHESIS ON WHY HE GOT MORE.

Hypothesis:

Apparently, according to my superior brain, I believe that Lim had turned on the charms on the young deaf lady at the counter. He treated her with much more respect. He saw through like an X-ray and what other people saw on the outside, he saw nothing. He looked past all her imperfections and treated her as a HUMAN. Not a oh-so-you're-blind-thus-I-must-emphasise-on-hand-signals young, deaf person. Yes that is it. He still talked to her as if she wasn't deaf at all when ordering his food. And therefore, because of that, she must've felt so good about it that she awarded him with more cheese.



That's... DUMB SHIT. I was just using the universal way of speaking with each other! What's wrong with that? I don't deserve more cheese? I don't?! Asses! Call your manager out. I want to have a word with her.

But wow, lim HAS THE CHARMS. Didn't know he could turn it ON babeh!
