I went to the SMU Kopitaim again. This time for dinner with Choon Keat and Floria. The place is pretty much empty at that time.

Floria was wearing work clothes and she want me to buy for her as I was dressed my casually. I told her to buy herself and she's not happy.

Her bowl of Korean noodle cost an expensive $6. I bought Yong Tau Hu. It's $4.50 for 7 items + noodle + laksa. It's quite expensive if u ask me. Anyway, the seller asked me if I am a student. I hesitated and say "Ar...". She interpreted it as yes and charged me onli $3.60. Sin no 1.

Floria is grumbling that I did not help her save $1.20 when I told her about my discount.

If you don't know what I am talking abt, SMU Kopitiam gives 20% to SMU students and staff. The store owner have thought that I looked like a student and hence charged me less.

After we finished our our meal, we wanted ice-cream. And I was sent to buy it. This time, I confidently say that I am a student when asked about it, having already done it once. Sin no 2.

When we were about to finish our desserts, Poh Kiong and Daniel called us to da pao something for them. Again, Choon Keat and Floria appointed me to go get the stuff for them.

While buying for Daniel, I was asked the same question for the 3rd time, "Are you a student". I answered "Yes, but I did not bring my card". My conscience must be getting to me. Sin no 3.

Finally, I was asked for the fourth time that question. This time my conscience won and I answered no. The 1 veggie, 1 egg and 1 meat rice cost $4. Thats so expensive. But luckily, I am not paying for it. :P

And to be fair to Poh Kiong, who did not get to enjoy my student discount, I decided to charge Daniel the original amt as well. :P
