new helmets and raincoat
it rained when the bf came to pick me. i asked the bf to call the motor accessories shop to enquire about the raincoats that should have arrived 3 weeks ago and they are finally here. but the people broke their promise to call when the raincoats arrived. *angry
we made our way down to the shop and we managed to get his OGK raincoat. intitally they quoted us 75. i got alil agitated cos i bought mine for 65. cp bought grace and his for 55 each. like wah! can.. so later they quoted 70 and keong bargained for 60. in the end, the raincoat was sold for 65. 20 more in total, if only we had bought ours together back then. and anyway, the explanation for this batch of raincoats being more expensive is bcos its new stock. what crap! after we got his raincoat, we went to the motor accessories shop across the road. we came across some half-cap helmets and some other cute helmets meant for scooters, but not PSB approved. keong's current helmet is like almost gone and he need a new helmet quite badly. out of impulse, i decided to buy the new helmets.total damage: 169 raincoat - 65 helmets - 90 visors - 14
happily, we left the shop and crossed the road. then somehow, we noticed many pairs of eyes staring at us. the guy who served us earlier on, came to us with a helmet in his hand. he said in mandarin: "why you never tell me, cannot wear helmets that are not PSB approved.. (pointing to the back of the helmet) blah blah blah.." keong told me later, he wasnt very willing to give us a good price, so why should we buy from him. i totally agree man. but it didnt took us long to regret our decision. so we've decided to get proper PSB approved helmets when he gets his pay. =x
