I was pissed off n tell the guy " u think I don't understand wat u say? I m not buying" in a serious but not agressive manner. He threatened me not to walk past there again, i just ignored him n went across the street n bought 2 mongoes for 50p n went back to hotel.

Wat would u guys do if u r called a kuripot from a fruit seller u r goin to buy from? Think i will avoid all roadside stalls from now but sometimes many of the normal shops r closed at this hour.

I told my girl that we should buy from supermarket nextime n she agrees tellin me the guy is bad for sayin that. But she did not speak a word back then so guess she do not want to be invovled.

bro,very dangerous of u to do tat,not worth it.if he wants to call u a kuripot,then let him be,it won't hurt u just by saying or calling u tat right?

Live and let live. Let it go. Anyway he will not carry out any threat to you. He too busy trying to find another victim.

Just released my last night girl and another one I KIV from last night now coming. Had to postpone her from last night till now. Later my Manila girl will come at 4pm. Hands full already.

Haha... bro I have long way to attain your endurance standard.
Well he did not say it softly to begin with n at that time i was thinking: Why should I pay u to call me a "kuripot".

Are these fruits locally grown? think not cheap that's y i bargain.
120p per kg for mangoes i bought.

Well, I will not buy from any roadside stalls or touts anymore.
I know u meant well,bro but I just can't pay $$ for people to call me that.
Of course I don't start an arguement, but just had to say it.

I agree bro, especially when one is a visitor in a country whose people kill over nothing. Sometimes its hard to fight a natural reaction but when in AC, never retaliate when u think u r being provoked or insulted. You don't know how many people they have eyeing on you

Not happy just walk away quietly, no need to say anything

I hate to bargain in AC, whether it is for a trike fair or whatever. So I ask my bf to do all that & almost always they get a great deal without any fuss

Afternoon 1pm

Met up with ZIEBART n his cute gf inside his room.
We took a jeepney to Blind Beggars n played pool there.
Halfway ZBT left as his gf wants to change clothes.
i received text that my lastnite's girl is busy today n can't make it to the bar.

A tall slim girl wants to play pool w me so buy her a LD.
I played pool w a slim tall cutie for 5rds I think n agreed to barfine her, at 5pm suddenly the girl who is busy text me n asked me to go Honeykos as she will go there now.
So I said sorry to the pool girl that something urgent came up so can't barfine her n she said it's alright.
Again kenna charge extra 20p for pool. This time I don't bother to say anything. Just get all the change (no tip for the bar) n tip the pool girl.

Left for Honeykos thinking Hosayliao got mate for tonight.
Went inside saw her n she asked me to wait awhile as someone rings the bell many times. I saw a gentleman paid up 5000p for the bell.

ZBT text me he is playin pool at SIlly hat bar.
So I waited in the pool room for her to finish her drinks.
After half an hour, I could not find her n her friends said she was drunk n sleeping upstairs.
A complete turn of events, i told her friend i m leavin n asked her to text me when she awake.

I went to Silly Hat looked for ZBT, we looked around for my barfine but none was satisfactory after going to 2 other bars nearby.
Sat down watched pool n order a drink.
Suddenly 1 of my regular girls text me that her customer early release her at 8pm n wants to meet me.

So I went to meet her n bought some food back to hotel.
Just had dinner n surfing the net. She got a bit of flu n cough n is resting now while i post this. Think i'll slip out to meet ZBT at the Korean videoke.
