one recent incident

my sis has a convenient knack for forgetting that i'm on a different timezone. once she was catching an international flight from JFK to KUL via ORD.

*in deep sleep*
3am. *ring ring*. "hey cha (older sis in chinese) guess what, i missed my flight". "okay well get on the next one". put phone down.

3.30am. *ring ring*. "okay to update you, i got on the next flight to chicago, leaves in 45 mins". i say great. put phone down.

4am. *ring ring*. growl at the phone. "am shopping in duty free, do you think kayjinn would like an 'i love newyork shirt?". ARGH. "i don't really care, why are you calling me, sure why not get him one." put phone down.

4.30am. *ring ring*. "CHA, i missed my flight AGAIN". almost pull hair out. "HOW the heck did you miss your flight twice". apparently she was too busy shopping. discuss that she should get the first flight out in the morning, and go stay overnight in a hotel. put down phone.

5am. *ring ring*. WHAT IS IT NOW. "cha, which hotel should i get, days inn is 60/night but fairfield is nicer, closer but for 80/night". really do not care at this moment if she sleeps on the damn street. "fine FINE i'll pay for it just GO stay in a hotel". put phone down.

6am. *ring ring*. have fully punched my pillow and torn it into pieces. "just wanted to let you know i'm all checked in. will go to sleep before my flight at 10am". slam phone down.

what an awesome sister.
