You want bung beelart?!

Location where this conversation took place: This afternoon at bugis toastbox

me: 1 hei bee hiam soft bun and 1 peanut soft bun
auntie: you want 1 bung hei mee and 1 bung beelart?

Ok, I know hei mee means hei bee as she got that quite close to the correct pronounciation. But I was really thinking what the hell was bung beelart lor!!

So...
me: huh?!
She repeated: you want 1 bung hei mee and 1 bung peelart?

Haha....can die la! Bun hei bee and bun peanut!!! Luckily I am clever enough to understand it the second time! Wahaha!!

Anyway went to my beautician's place to do my manicure and pedicure! I love the manicure but could not do French for pedicure as my nails were too short. Anyway I liked the colour too!

I know what you mean! I also ever kena frontline staff who butcher English until i cannot comprehend what the fuck it is they are saying.

Which also brings me to my grouse of having China folks who cannot speak English manning stalls / shops. Pisses the hell out of me.
