Weekends were dealt with fruitfully. Selling mangoes at Tampines Giant. Don't ask me why am i in Tampines. Don't ask me why am i in Giant. and Don't ask me why am i selling mangoes. ASK SARA TEO. The mango saga 1:

.

kid 1: Daddy! this mango is sooo sweet... mmmm... i like it!

kid 2: Daddy i like it too! its really very very sweet! not even a tinge of sourness! (i was actually surprised that she used the word 'tinge' correctly though she looked no more than 6 yrs old)

Daddy: Really? let me try.

kid1, 2: (look earnestly at Daddy for his reaction)

Dad: (puts mango bits into his mouth and gave a huge twitch) ahh. so sour! who say its sweet! lets go!

.

My hideous thoughts: ''In fact, i cut two mangoes. Due to inexperience in the mango industry, the 1st mango of the day was really sour. acidically sour. and the second one was awefully ripe and sweet.''

.

The mango saga 2:

.

Auntie: wah.. mango ah this one? i try ahhh...

Kid: mummy mummy i also wan..

Auntie: go take one and try, its very sweet..

Kid: mmm.. so sweeeeet... i like!

Auntie: come, say thank you to auntie!

.

My hideous thoughts: ''I AM NOT IN THE CATEGORY OF AUNTIE YETTTTTTTT.''

.

The mango saga 3:

.

(because i am selling Australia mangoes, it looks rounder and redder than the usual peasant mangoes)

wife: eh what is this?

husband: mango la! cannot see the board ar?

wife: no la its not mango. dont look like mango leh. i think its apple

husband: .... its mango. dont believe you ask that girl there la!

wife: (turns to me, and points to my mango samples) eh miss, this one is this one ar? ( points to the mangoes on the rack

hel: yes :)

wife: really?? but how come the mango looks different one? are you sure? it looks more like apple. mmm, so funny ar. nowadays fruits also look different. you think its apple but actually its mango. just like some people , you think they are nice to you but actually they talk behind you.

hel: ?????????????????????????? hur hur hur. ya i think so too.

.

My hideous thoughts: ''what the fuck?''

.
Lessons learnt:

1) Choosing a ripe and sweet mango is never easy

2) Cutting a mango is tedious

3) Standing beside a group of mangoes for 8 hrs is retarded

4) People working in Giant are boringly interesting

5) Mango is a popular fruit in singapore

6) Giant's kitchen is grossly disgusting (while i was cutting my mangoes peacefully, out of nowhere someone beside me starts cutting a chicken. well, i contained my horror when i saw the chicken blood squirting out)

7) People with the lowest rank live in a dream that they have the highest authority

8) Sara Teo has the weirdest job lobangs.

.

Though i don't give birth to the mangoes i cut, i get really happy when people say that they are sweet :)

HELEN. she's a bitch. but a KIND one.
