today was my second day back at school, except it wouldn't really be counted since i like only attended one lesson. at least i went though, right?
and before you think i skipped. i didn't. i had super horrible leg cramps i didn't know what to do, so i went for a massage.
neways, what is the deal with freaks popping up everywhere around me?
after Ben&Jerry's with Becca, i was at the bus stop waiting to go home, and this random guy who says he is frm Taiwan asked me for directions.
so, i think: I don't know why you chose me, but i'll help if i can.
and than he goes on to ask if i knew what a Social Escort was. i was like, totally blanking out so i was like, No. and he starts explaining it to me, like how the usually get paid $500- $600 a day, that they brought tourists around and how he thought Singapore had a ton of them.
Like i tour guide? i asked.
and he just smiled.
so, like i get on my bus. and it hit me really hard what he was going on about.
A FREAKIN' ESCORT.
don't get me wrong, i'm not stupid, i know what an escort is. it's just a nice word for a hooker. the whole Social bit just threw me off.
so i get my Mum on the phone and she explains it to me.
me: Mummy, is a Social Escort the same as an Escort?
mummy: why?
me: because some guy was talking to me about it.
mummy: WHAT? WHAT GUY?
me: i don't know. some guy at the bus stop.
mummy: girl, a Social Escort is a more glamorous prostitute who gets paid more-
me: i know. he told me they get paid $500- $600 a day. oh, they're glamorous?
mummy: yeah. they accompany businessmen for the night and they get paid more if they end up having sex.
me: oh, EEEWWWLLL.
mummy: please don't talk to strangers anymore.
me: no, i thought he just needed directions.
mummy: okay. why would anyone ask you for directions?
yeah, thanks alot Mummy! that's totally the lesson learnt today.
also, i'd like to think that guy was simply explaining to me what a Social Escort was and not offering me a job.
God.
anyways, guess this this the crap that makes life... interesting?
oh, who am i kidding ?
whatev.
LOL. Aunty brought the whole Choo family minus Daddy+Chai to dinner at Sushi Tei the other night, and it was so funny when Cafie had to get up and started pacing around cause she needed to digest some food before she could stuff herself with more.
it was even funnier when Nel+Cafie were communicating in Chinese because Aunty refused to get them both anymore food, and they wanted more dessert even though they already had some.
cafie [in Chinese]: we need $2.80
aunty [in Thai]: she can't finish her food, can she?
nel [in English]: no, she wants more.
oh, and a few more pictures of Kel acting drag. or gay. cross-dresser. whatever.
he takes his shot at playing Twiggy.
ahahaahahaha, YEAH.
CHANTAL'S off now!
