"Revenge is a dish best served awesome!"Something random I saw in a DeviantART.com comment board.
A couple of hours ago, I was writing a post - a long, sentimental rambler about how big a loser I am and how my life sucks. Of course, being the big loser I am, I accidentally closed my browser page and lost the post. Luckily, Blogspot now has that every-minute-auto-save feature which ensures that my hard-penned drivels don't get eaten up by the gaping maw of the far side of the internet.
That feature is a lemon, by the way. I have seen corpses with hearts that works better than it does.
I checked my draft page and found that my half-written latest entry was lost for keeps. I was so distraught that I immediately went out for lunch and ate a plate of chili chicken which tasted like crap, like everything else here in Manipal.
Life just keeps getting better, huh?
I miss you.Okay, now that I've started this post, I might as well make a confession.
Back when I was in college in a trip to the Sushi King in Sunway Pyramid with my ex-girlfriend, I spotted a tiny cockroach scampering about the table top by the kaiten-zushi (that's the revolving conveyor belt with plates of sushis on them you see in these joints). Without much thought (as with most of the things I do in my life, unfortunately) I trapped the li'l bugger with one of those transparent plastic covers Sushi King put onto their dishes;
Some picture I stole."Eww," went my ex in response. I can never understand why girls (and Shaki) are so bloody terrified of something so much smaller than they are.
Carefully, I maneuvered the bug onto a purple-edged dish which not ten minutes ago contained two pieces of Unagi sushis (grilled eel, my absolute favourite, by the way). The last time I went to Sushi King, the purple plates were RM 8 apiece. I'm not quite sure how much they cost now.
Then, I calmly asked for the manager and showed him the roach.
"There's a live cockroach in my plate," I remarked coolly.
"Oh dear, I'll get you a fresh plate right away. I'm so sorry," he squeked and dashed off immediately, as if afraid I'll make a grand hullabaloo out of the affair.
And that was how I scored a free plate of Unagi from Sushi King. Thinking back, I regret I didn't try getting the manager bloke to tear up my entire bill. I'm sure he would have done so had I but asked.
Now, don't give me that look. I didn't tell a single lie. There really was a cockroach in my plate, okay? It's just that he ran off before I could tell him that I put it there myself.
The moral of the story is: Unagi rocks!
The End.
Will swindle for sushi,

Not everything in Manipal is bad.. Maybe from a Malaysian view point.. but for people who have not seen anything good in life and who have suffered in tiny villages this is quite a good place to be in.

There's worse place than Manipal - and frankly, this place isn't that bad at all. But all of us love our own homes right? And I was just in a huffy sort of mood.
@michelleg
I read your post :)
The worse thing I found in my meal was a dead baby lizard. And I found it after I ate most of it... but i'm not the queasy sort.
A lot of the services in Malaysia is disgraceful - but it provides good leverage for bargaining XD
@spookygrace
Oh dear, Rabbit's good friend! I've seen so much of you and I've visited your blog a few times too. These days I just don't comment much.
Carry a small bag full of roaches with you. You'll never go hungry again :D ... use the roaches to get free meal, I mean. Not eat them
@pinksterz
There's nothing wrong. It's just something I don't understand. That's all. You afraid of bugs too?
Sushi isn't all about ikan tak masak k. There's a lot of other awesome stuff too. I'll take you go sushi someday!
I didn't tell a single lie. He felt guilty. So he must have something to feel guilty about.
@elaynne
