Grape fruit, orange..... mandariiiiinnnnnnnn....!!

since I have not been well lately (flu..., temperature change... gttng colder here..), I have been eating lots of mandarins... need to get a good dose of vitamin C, to get well asap... dah letih menghembus hingus sampai merah2 idung.... what to do... helas...!!

was in the office, was eating a mandarin, then offered some to Jovitha, an office colleague....

dia cakap... "thanks Johan, I don't really like Orange..."...

"err.... but Jovitha, this is not orange, it is mandarin...."

"no... it's orange...."

"no... it's mandarin, Jovitha...."

"huh...? it's orange for me...."
says Jovitha...

dia siap panggil si Radha lak, then asked what the fruit was... and si Radha nih pun 2 x 5 jer.... "Orange,...." jawapnya....

letih gua....! awat deme nih tak tahu beza antara orange & mandarin...? in India got no mandarin meh...? thot that Pakistan exports lots of mandarin, India must have the fruit too... (???)

so balik rumah, singgah supermarket jap.... I need to make a point (mana boleh kalah maaa... hahaha....)

so, the next day.... I brought the fruits, and said to Jovitha....

"Jovitha....!!"
I called her....

"this is grapefruit..."
adtnl buah that I found at the supermarket... kang dia kata orange jugak kang.....


"Orannnnggggeeee.....,"



"and mandariiiiiiinnnnnnnnn......."


while showing the different fruits one by one again,....
"grapefruuuiit...., orangggeeee,...... mannndaaaariiiiiiinnnnnnnn......!!"


"now.. repeat after me.......," (while showing the fruits one by one once again..... )

"grapefruuuuit...., oraaaaangggeeee,...... mannndaaaariiiiiiiiinnnnnnnn......!!"


haha....!! nak dia baling stapler kat kepala aku....!!! (with a smile of course...) :D


sajer jer... gurau-gurau member se-opis...!!!

Dude, orang cina kata (dan kita orang yang darah cina dier diluted sket ni pin kena dengar) - kalau demam & batuk, dont eat Mandarin oranges (clementine skali, since dia satu keluarga). Heaty wor. Oranges boleh, sebab benda tu cooling. Camne diorang kata satu beradik heaty, lagi satu beradik cooling, gua pun tak paham. Dengor jer la. Sinon, il y a toujours du grog - un peu du rhum, du sucre, du citron et tu les chauffe un peu. Voila :D
