Remember my friend Alex? I’ve been trying to get that lazy ass to come visit me in KL some time so I can take him around. All that he needs to do is buy an air ticket. That’s it! He can stay with me and the food here in KL is really cheap (well compared to London and if you eat hawker food). The man comes up with all the excuses in the world NOT to come.
Well I made a bet with him not long ago. It was for the World Cup match between Germany and Spain. I was rooting for Germany and he for Spain. So we decided to place a little wager. The bet was… if Germany beat Spain, he will (sometime in the next 12 months) fly down to KL and buy me diner. On the other hand, if Spain won then I will fly to London and buy him dinner there.
I thought I was going to win for sure but I guess we now know the real results.
SAD… SAD I TELL YOU! Now I have to make a trip to London some time in the next 12 months. Not to complain or anything… I love London! But after going to New York this year, My Hello Kitty and I kinda decided that we’re not going to go for any more holidays until next year because we need to save.
If we do manage to save up enough money to go somewhere next year, we were hoping to go to San Francisco or something. So now I have to give up San Francisco or somehow eat enough High Five bread to save enough money to go for both London and San Francisco (very unlikely though).
Or the alternative is that… I don’t go to London and I hope that Alex forgets about that little bet. What do you think are the odds that might happen? I mean he’s been so busy lately anyway helping his musician brother gain fame? Oh did I ever mention that? Alex’s younger brother is a musician who’s going to LA to become a star! You can check out his site here.
Back to the subject though… so…. what are the odds that Alex will forget. Pretty high right?
