Ok.. first lets set the scenario right ..!! I want you to think like an Englishman..! and then think how an Englishman speaks.. and the expression on the Englishman. Ok.. if you still donch know.. go ask .. ST from ShaolinTiger ok..! Maybe he will be kind enough to demonstrate to you.

I’m sure by now.. if you have been reading my blog.. you will know.. firstly we do trades .. buy and sell at our store.. and yes.. we own some businesses .. and no.. i’m not the owner.. i’m only the owner by association. And yes.. everyday.. i have ppl from the streets walking in and trying to sell our stuff.. and some even think .. we are a pawn shop.. ! i donch know how many times… i have to literally stop myself from yelling at them.. “WE ARE NOT A PAWN SHOP..!!!”

So ya.. we opened the store a few mornings ago.. and in came walking in .. a big man.. voice booming and all.. wanting to sell us a pedometer..!!!! yes.. a PEDOMETER!!! A FREAKING PEDOMETER.. !!! that Mickey D gave out for FREE..!!! but first .. he asked me.. if we are a PAWN SHOP..!!! OMG…!!! in my 7 yrs here.. i donch freaking know.. how many times.. i’ve said.. “We are not a pawn shop..!!”

Anyway.. buddy wanted to sell his PEDOMETER for $10 bucks..!!! and i’m pissed.. because we are a game store.. a movie store.. and a computer store..!! so why does ppl think.. we would buy just anything .. and moreso a PEDOMETER..!!!!!! “pengshan”.

Ok.. that’s where the englishman part comes.. i wanted to tell him.. “I don’t want your blardy PEDOMETER!! for 10 bucks..!! “, so i want you to imagine .. ST saying that .. to that LOSER..! Yes.. i love it.. when Jane (PB’s cousin’s wife who is also English) speaks. They can be so sarcastic.. yet sound so lovely.. !!! like music to my ears. I have to learn to speak like Jane .. it would be nice.. to use it sometimes..!! right now.. i speak like “cina toe tek”..! (my mum’s favorite saying). What would you do if you were I…??
