Last Day of 2012 - Over a Bowl of Cendol & Mee Rebus

After the workers finished installing the access door system, Linda and I went downstairs to have lunch. Bawah pokok - for cendol and mee rebus. Seriously one of the best cendol and mee rebus around this area. Anyway, I have been friends with Linda since our hostel days. While we were not really in the same group of friends, we were in the same groups of notorious friends. At that time, some groups "overlap". After we finished school, all the groups sort of got "joined" together as ex-88ATPNers.

Nope, we didn't reflect on the year. We just touched on issues that came to mind. Rule of thumb: there shouldn't be any serious conversations over cendol and mee rebus. Let's see - how we still can't understand why some women go gaga over tudung Fareeda which cost hundreds of ringgit per piece, how at this age the most important thing is to spend by our own means and not by what other people think we should, how ridiculous some people spend their money but then they don't bother because they have not experienced the kind of financial situations such that we have experienced, well, the usuals... But Linda added one point to her life principle - there should be no compromise to food! (So, no spending on cars, fancy clothes, expensive shoes or handbags - but unlimited spending on food!).

That's a good life principle!
