The Soya Bean Tale & X'mas Eve

Quirky things have been happening to me of late. Am I the only one feeling this or are the people around me being funny? Read on.

As usual, I went to AJC for elementz today with Kelly and Athirah before going to AMK Hub for lunch. After a hearty meal I decided to get a drink. Inital plan was to go search for a bubble tea stall but there wasn't one around and since I really need something to quench my thirst I decided to settle for some other beverage. Found a Jollibean booth nearby and I thought that if I can't find any bubble tea stall around, I will just go for that. Of course, I was down on my luck in the search. Then I made a turn to head for the Soyabean stall when I actually entered the wrong shop!

"Eh, Miss, can I have a cup of cold Soya Bean drink please?"

"Huh, come again?"

"Soya bean drink," I repeated.

"We don't sell soya bean. We sell fruit juices."

"Oh, that's... cool. Happy Christmas!" (LOL)

I retreated and scanned my surroundings, realising that the JolliBean store was right beside the shop I was in. Anyway, I stepped into a fruit juice shop. Ok, so I did make a mistake and land myself in such an awkward situation. Soya Bean, you are my foe for doing this to me.

On the way back, a lady on the bus seated right next to me shoved a pamphlet into my hand just one stop away from my landing destination. She smiled. We spoke for a little while before I alighted. Just to inform you guys, I have been having encounters with numerous strangers these days. Queer. And going back to the pamphlet, if you read the details inside, you'd understand it's about the origin of Christmas.

Cocktails, CHEAT, Chocolates, Cheers, Cookies, Cake, Carol, Sparklers, all packed into one night today. With all these terrific things occuring all at once, it sure is a Christmas To Remember. Shoutout to all: A Merry, Jolly and Happy X'Mas!
