Well, we girls are discussing where we shld go and hv dinner for the b'day girl (she is in the discussion too).
So there we are messaging in Facebook suggesting various places that we could hv dinner to celebrate for the b'day. Becos I m financially tight for this month as I have various occasions that I need to spend money on, one of them being another fren's wedding in a posh hotel, which falls on 10th Oct, my ang bao cannot be too stingy even though I m attending the dinner alone.
Ok back to the b'day dinner topic. On the b'day day itself, me and the b'day girl will be heading to Universal Studio in the afternoon and after that we r meeting up the rest for dinner at Vivocity. I frankly voice out my financial difficulties during the FB discussions as I want to be upfront abt this, cos I don't want to be taken as stingy. And I did not say I don't want to celebrate b'day for the b'day girl, just that I want to spend within my means (and also I hv a short trip coming in Nov!) so I got to save, save, save. Haizz :(
The b'day ger said she is craving for zi char food and Dian Xiao Er is quite similar to that. So I suggested to go there for dinner as is more affordable (for me) and also we r sharing the cost to treat the b'day girl, NOT forgetting we also hv to pay for our OWN share.
Now I was pissed off becos one selfish person suggested :
''Go the Hei She Hui lah ...decided liao gt to book table else q like siao...Dian Xiao Er nothing much lei...hmmm hei she hui gt custard bun !!!!! :P''
**Hei She Hui means Bosses' Restaurant in Vivocity
**Dian Xiao Er is another restuarant also in VivocitySo I replied to all :
''Hei Se hui is ex oK.. i keep repeating myself i m on budget.
Is nt i m not willing to spend, really finance very tight. Hope U all understand.. we can budget and still hv a decent meal.''
I am NOT angry that she wanted her custard buns, but I am pissed off becos I already said I am on a budget and she still suggest such an expensive place where the food is so-so only, MAYBE the custard buns is nice only. I really dono how she thinks. She don realise that is selfish of her? Or maybe she really is selfish? I had observed some of her ''selfish'' ways when I was out with her a few times, but being friends for so many years, I just don wan to be too calculative with her. BUT there is a limit to how long I can tolerate. If I really lash out at her, she won't like it for sure and that will be the end of our frenship. (-_-)''
OK, maybe I m being too negative, being too sensitive and I have misunderstood her. To be fair, she never said we all must go there. But didn't I make myself clear enuff? And she can just conveniently suggest such an expensive, overrated place for dinner.
To be very blunt, she is NOT the b'day girl. Period.
