Saturday Night Fun

Last Saturday, after having late dinner with my best buddies, we ended up in cybercafe all night long. I haven't done that since leaving college, it's been like over 5 years.

Before the break of dawn, we had dimsum... Here are some pictures I took:

Beng Guan: " It's 6:40 in the morning, I should be sleeping "

Boo Pin: " What are u staring at... Leave me aloneeee... "

Si Sheng: " I'm hungry, where is my dimsum??? "

Me: " Look at my eyebags... "

Zimbabwean Dollar = Hell Dollar

Zimbabwe is an African country in distress. Zimbabwe suffers from hyperinflation, as a result of economy mismanagement and overprinting of its money supply, therefore making the currency worthless.

Hell bank notes are afterlife monetary papers used in traditional Chinese ancestor veneration. Both currencies have many zero-s and both are equally useless for transaction in real world.

Say hello to 500 million Zimbabwean Dollar
* see the fine print in the center:
on or before 31st Dec 2008 ... ...
Issue date: 2nd May 2008

500 million Hell Dollar
(at least this does not have expiry date)

100 billion Zimbabwean Dollar can buy you 3 eggs (on its release date)

* On February 2009, the exchange rate is 1 US dollar = 300,000,000,000,000 Zimbabwean Dollar. On April 2009, the Zimbabwean government decided to suspend the currency indefinitely.

Surprise Discovery in My Ancestry Root

I found out recently that one of my great-grandmom is a Malay, through some casual conversations with a family member. That makes me 87.5% Chinese and 12.5% Malay.

Now I understand why:
a) my skin colour is darker
b) i have more facial hair than regular chinese man
c) my lackadaisical (tidak-apa) attitude
d) i'm attracted to Siti Nurhaliza, err not really...
