Bad food and infidelity

I took a break from studying today and headed to the Curve for some shopping and after a couple of hours walking around my mom, bro and I decided to have dinner there so we headed off the "Little Penang Cafe". As usual there was a crowd there enjoying their meals and so we presumed that the food there was good or else why would there be so many people eating there right? So I decided to have the first thing on their menu which was " Nasi Lemak Penang" or something like that because I just couldn't decide what to eat. It said that the nasi lemak was served with ikan bilis sambal and assam prawns and some fish or something. When the dish finally arrived, I was lost for words and my bro was laughing. There was a small heap of rice on which there were TWO (yes, 2 and ONLY 2) prawns which didn't look anywhere NEAR assam at all, the fish was like covered in this black coloured/deep red gravy which looked horrid. and there was half an egg and THREE slices of cucumber and probably a teaspoon of belacan. I was like, " Did this really cost 9.80????"

But whatever right? As long as it tastes good, I'm good. Well, it didn't. It was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo not like what I had expected and seriously NOT worth the money. It was actually at one point tasting so bad that I wanted to puke it all out! But I kept reminding myself that it was 9.80.. but at a certain point, you just can't force it down anymore. The prawn was horrible, the fish in the sambal was utterly disgusting and the sambal it self was ewww.. Oh, there was no kacang!!! Who serves nasi lemak WITHOUT kacang?!!!! WHO???? I finally know how those contestants on Amazing Race feel like when they have to eat something disgusting. By the way, nasi lemak was suppose to be spicy, this was like sweet and NOT spicy and it was well, HORRIBLE.

Maybe other food there taste good, I dunno, but don't, for the love God, your stomach and your tongue, DO NOT at all order the nasi lemak at " Little Penang Cafe" because it was not food at ALL. And I paid freaking 9.80 for it!!!! I can easily eat Pak Cik's nasi lemak outside IMU for 1.30 and enjoy every last grain of rice but this is like EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. This only goes to show that expensive places serve the WORST nasi lemak. Mdm. Kwan's Nasi Lemak is another one which is not FANTASTIC, but at least they have more ingredients in their food! My stomach is so traumatised right now, I don't think I can eat..I still feel like puking...bluek....

Moving on to infidelity, I was reading an letter in the newspaper today, you know, they have this section in the Star, Dear Thelma or something like that where you write in about your life problems and they give you advise and so on. Well, there was this letter about this guy who has a girlfriend as is having sex with his married neighbour. This got me wondering, why can't guys stick to one girl? And he even mentioned that his gf is very busy or something like that which got  me pissed. Your gf is busy, SO WHAT? Does that mean you sleep with another woman? I mean, SERIOUSLY? What is up with people these days? Why is it so easy for someone to cheat on someone. I choose NOT to stereotype this problem by saying that only guys cheat on girls because if you see the issue above, he is sleeping with a married woman which means that she is cheating on her husband as well.

What is the world becoming too? Where have all the principles and values gone? Down the drain? As an Asian society I expected that we actually have some values, but after reading that it really gets me thinking where is our society heading too? Is random sex with anyone becoming a part of our culture? I mean why do people cheat? Is staying faithful to one person THAT difficult?

This problem is more common among guys than girls but I'm NOT saying that only guys cheat because girls cheat on their partners as well, therefore I feel that it is more of an individual problem rather than blaming it on the gender. There are guys who are capable of staying loyal to one person, but the number of guys doing that is actually rather small. Some guy once told me that guys are more likely to cheat because they often think with their dicks instead of their heads. Honestly, if a guy tells me that right now, I swear I WILL pour hot coffee down his pants!

There is no such thing and if you think I'm going to buy that excuse, think again. Giving excuses clearly shows that you are not addressing the issue and that you think just because you do something, you can get away with it. We need to address this issue instead of making excuses for it. I believe that there is NO excuse for infidelity.Making excuses to run away from the problem is not solving the problem. People have to realise that when they commit an act of infidelity they are automatically hurting someone's feelings. And that just shows how irresponsible and inconsiderate a person can be. I think that this problem can be solved if people just realise that what they are doing is wrong, I mean, honestly, cheating on someone is NOT a normal thing and it is something I fail to understand even after trying so hard to do so.

I just DON'T get why people have to cheat on the ones they love. I honestly think that the society is losing its moral values and principles.Who is to blame?

Love,

Lady Sha Sha
