Proof I am wasting my father’s money.

I bought a coat off Ebay !! It was a suit, with matching pants, but I didn’t put it on. There you have it Pa, I am actually not saving money !! [ No la, since it costs USD 20 only, I skipped a few lunches and I have saved enough to buy it. ]

And it is made of virgin wool !! 20 dollars for a pure virgin wool suit !! I thought it was too good to be true, and it was true that it was too good to be true…

I think the guy ripped the inner seam, and made some effords to mend it. But he didn’t mention any of this in his item description. And the tragedy didn’t end there.

He used black tread to sew back the seams, and the treads are actually visible on the outside of the coat. I must commend on the lack of common sense here. Well, fortunately I myself have grey tread. Now I will have to replace them myself. My sister is right, if it is too good to be true, it is too good to be true. Nevertheless, I think the coat was a steal. I would rather sew than pay a lot more for a same but new coat.

Feeling better.

Had fever yesterday. Had a very bad cough last few days. Just got rid of the accursed cold and running nose.

Hope tomorrow will be better, just like I hope all the days before me would be better. Don’t think yours would not be. Humans are inclined to move forward. Don’t hope that the days ahead will be better, they will be.

Cooking.

Failure.

I just found out that I am a much worst failure than I thought I already am.

In a bid to do things my way, I bluntly rejected a suggestion and proceeded proudly with my own plan. Of course the result was disasterous. I felt rather shameful although nobody said anything, because I know it would be a very hot topic in people’s gosip sessions. The whole night I tried to hide by being as quiet and as unsignificant as possible, and it was really a bad feeling.

The thing I leart from this is never ever let pasta travel. Never ever bring pasta for a pot luck. Because once pasta gets cold, it loses most of its subtle taste, and becomes very hard. The pasta sauce also would become watery and lose its subtle taste as well. So the best choice is to deep fry something, or roast something.

I hope more wisdom would come from above. I prayed you know. Please save me from more shame. >.<
