Stuck

you know mothers. recently there is the new year angbow TOTO draw which is attracting throngs of singaporeans to queue up at the singapore pools for hours in line because of the huge amount of prize money. (think of a mountain piling on top of you till u suffocate. it is that huge. $10 million dollars!!!!) So my mother told me to go and buy a lottery ticket as well.

you dun buy, you won't even stand a chance of winning...she coos and cajoles.

So yesterday after work, me and wj went to buy. Yup, the singapore pools have extended their working hours (9am-9pm) to accomodate working professionals like us to chip in our hard earn money into that enormous pool of prize money. Before i went over to the counter, i decided to withdraw some cash. And the atm ate my card. What a stroke of good luck!

stunned.

mins later, abit aware of the current situation. i felt horrified.

wj called the helpline which put us on hold for 15mins which lasted like agony while i see people withdrawing money from the same ATM machine! how is that possible?!?! Finally someone picked up our line and told me not to worry and that perhaps the Atm at that moment in time was offline or had some flyaways. er....rite. So i cancelled my card (good riddance!) and now awaiting for the new card to arrive.

i am cashless and cardless.
