Of Tom Yam and Chili Padi | Thursday, March 29, 2007
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to JACQUELINE and EE PING.
" Gosh! What a HOT day it was! " Our class started at 11am today. a change in our time table as our Paper 3 session on the previous day were unable to commence as the lecturer had lessons with other classes and now that night classes are forbidded to avoid parental complains. anyway, Paper 3 class has been rescheduled from 11am to 1pm on every Thursday. so as class was aproaching its end, Ee Leen had the sudden urge for Tom Yam!
Edmund, Jun Xiong and the others were heading towards Medan (foodcourt) as well. It seemed that the Tom Yam fever hit every single one of us, and off we went! however, as it was raining heavily at that moment. Our spirits were somehow dampened. but Edmund and Jun Xiong were quick to reach for their umbrellas in their cars and off we go into the rain!
As there was only 2 umbrellas and a total of 6 of us, Edmund and I becamed the heroes for a short moment as we dashed towards Medan allowing others, especially the girls to utilise the umbrellas. haha. and yea ... we were drenched!
the OPERATION TOM YAM went on. and every one of us ordered the delicious Tom Yam dish. with the Tom Yam Fried Rice still fresh from my memories, I had decided to settle down with the fried rice, so did Edmund and Jun Xiong. Ee Leen and Natalie however gone with the Tom Yam Noodles.
 and down came the tears and sweat. Ee Leen was teasing at me for sweating too much, well DUH! its TOM YAM! and muahahahaha as she was done with her teasings, her turn to sweat was right after that! tears were seen flowing down her cheek as well xD but boy it sure did taste good man, it was definitely fun as all of us were kinda in the same boat enjoying TOM YAM and sweating the hell outta us, haha.
and then it was something i didn't expect. I was sure I had all the chili padis moved to the side of the plate until i bit one of them.  holy crap man! I was hit by an atom worst than any mankind could have forseen. I was basically silenced and tears were flowing like the Niagara Falls. not to mention the amount of perspiration! i was stomping my feet (yea -.-") on the ground as an effort to shake off the burning sensation, haha. my face turned RED immediately without further questions. unfortunately, my ice-cold longan lychee drink was my only saviour. and it never seemed to be enough to cool me down LOL. and i kept silent, till everything went off. phew ~  Natalie was the only one who appeared calm with the Tom Yam. gosh, now we know who the mean machine is XD. ok maybe Edmund didn't had a bad time with the Tom Yam as well, but dang! Natalie was the one who is significantly left standing. Probably as she grew up in Penang, where spicy food was a norm (well it is a norm here as well) and delicious food was found everywhere. We successfully cleared our food and headed back to college. another dash under the rain. class resumed at 2pm till 6pm.
 the red hot mean thing.
