…TIps and biTS

11.28 am / office while listening to hale album (with brewed coffee at the side)

January 20, 2006

…while working. (Finishing some documents to be filed and phone calls to be done) My officemate ask me in a serious manner, throwing this educational cum dumb question,

(setting: I am in my desk in front of my pc surfing the net at the same time fixing the files to be filed and waiting for the phone query I’ve ask awhile ago in department of English office of comparative literature)

(before this conversation was made, he ask me first, where is the file or folder for linkages of egypt and where it’s located)

officemate: what is Egypt? (in a very serious and no conviction in his face)

me: what? (asking me again…he just ask me awhile ago and I’ve answered it already)

officemate: what is Egypt? (same tone of voice a very serious question)

me: am look for the cabinet file number 2.3 I think we have it there or if not just make a new folder for file. (continuing my work and not knowing what he wanted to know more)

officemate: I said, “what is Egypt?”

me: ha?!? What are you trying to say? (puzzle up with the same question)

officemate: Egypt is longer than the car! (with a very serious tone in his voice)

me: what?!? (freeze for awhile and tried to internalize what he just said)

me: hahahahaha (forcing myself to laugh – mood corny laugh)
