HCMC Day 5

This was da last day we r at HCMC. Early in da morning, i rushed to da bakery bot because im eager for their pasteries but me and BK planned to celebrate RJ's bday earlier at HCMC. Problem is that i forgot where is da shop. Actually it is quite near to da hotel but it took me 15mins to locate it. the biggest problem was not locating it but was the way how am i going to communicate with the person in the bakery. wat i can say was they know 0% of english!just to let them know, "i wanted four pieces of cakes with the number of candles on da cake. im coming at around 10am." this simple phrases took me about 45mins to explain(finger pointing here and there, sketching on papers).
Back to hotel about 8.15am and the gurls were not yet down. HC surrender for the morning and will join us for the bakery. had our breakfast and we went for da last round of c c look look. At Benh Thanh Market, finally let me found da last piece of Crumpler bag that my bro wanted and BK found her coll's Jack Wolfskin. If anyone wanna buy bag at Benh Thanh Market, please do some homework before you buy as the price they first offer sure very high. need to slash da price ya!
about 10am all of us reached da bakery but da worker inside dunno how to act lo. when i jus stepped, she already wave to me make RJ already sensed sumthing. i tot i told her very clearly but till the end everything went wrong!she served da cake without the candles and make me so annoyed!haha.. then later she serve the candles on another plate.. i almost fainted..hahahaha.. anyway, wrong then wrong lo.. seems no suprise for RJ liau.. anyway, we sang da bday song and ALL DA CAKE IS AS HARD AS STONE! is this a vietnamese style? i think is da cake not fresh lo.. aih.. already no suprise now da cake not nice too! no eyes c.
After da morning tea, we set off to da Vincom shopping center. Da gurls wanna hav a last grab.. lunch time came, we had our last lunch at Vietnam House. I think da food is quite normal but only da mushroom+beancurd dish was very tasty although it was slightly salty.lunch was over.. its time to packup to da airport.. this was da time i hate da most..and this was da time i knew that da first day we had been cheated by da taxi driver for 500000dong! from hotel to airport max is only 140000dong!wat to do...at the airport, all together we still have some dong left, lump up together we had our high tea.. our last coffee at Vietnam..hehehe..Singapore, we were heading back.. we were going back to reality after a 5 day rest.. and im coming back alone.. not wit a Vietnamese wife.. hahaha...
