McCD

This is about an incident that happened 2 days ago, which I would consider really recent (since I normally don’t get around to writing about it so fast), but it’s just that I was quite happy about what happened, so I thought I’d write it. ;-)

I’ll try to keep it as short as possible, so we’ll see how short it is.

You see, what happened was that lately, McDonalds is having a lot of promotion, free coupons etc… so, my friend, who loves freebies (or rather, free food) told me about it, & we went to McD a lot of times because of that (it seems that I just realized that some of my friends now are the kind who actually pay attention of offers, promotions, coupons, unlike me ^^;).

So, the thing is, that there’s this challenge thing where you chant these 4 lines in 4 seconds to get a free big mac. Of course, you don’t just chant it, you have to buy a McValue meal before you can get an entry coupon to chant, but there’re ways to get an entry coupon without buying a McValue meal hehehe. XD

Anyway, these are the 4 lines:

Two all beef patties
Special sauce, lettuce
Cheese, pickles, onions
On a sesame seed bun!

You can try to see whether you can do it in 4 seconds, but cos I’m a pessimistic person, I thought it was impossible. My friend, however, seems to be good at speaking fast, so she could do it easily.

Anyway, we went there quite a number of times to go & chant & get free big macs, & at one of those times, I noticed a stack of cds (they looked like audio, but I don’t think they are, but it has songs inside) there, so we asked what it was for, & it seemed that they were consolation prizes, & cos I kinda like cds (I dunno why though), so I was thinking that I might as well try chanting it, & if I can’t, then I get the cd anyway.

The funny thing was, I actually managed to do it in 4 seconds! Lol~ ^^;
So I didn’t get the cd, which I couldn’t help but feel that I wanted the cd, or else I wouldn’t have tried to chant it, but I thought, never mind, I can always try to chant again & see whether I make it in 4 seconds.

But even though I tried again a few times after that, I didn’t get the cd, & I didn’t want to purposely lose, you see. But every time I came, I would sort of stare longingly at the stack ^^;

So, what happened was the woman who always timed us (I think she could recognize us cos we came nearly every day there for the past week, even if we didn’t chant it) saw that I wanted the cd, so then she actually said, “You can have it if you want.”

& I couldn’t believe what she was saying, cos she already told us last time that they were consolation, & so I had to lose to get that cd, so I said, “Really?” & she said yes. So, I was stuttering by that time, & trying to say that I thought that I needed to lose 1st before I could get it.

But she gave it to me anyway, & she said, “Well, you’re supposed to lose first to get the cd, but you can take it anyway.”

^__________^

She was so nice~ XD

So, that’s how I got a free cd in my hands, & all the while, I couldn’t help thinking about how nice she was to give me a free cd when I didn’t even do anything ^^

& I’d like to go on about how nice she is, but that’s silly right, so I’ll stop here ^^;

There isn’t much to say, because if I said more, I’ll be repeating myself, & I don’t wanna do that.

But she IS nice~ XP

I was really touched, happy & grateful after that, so I wanted to blog about it because you don’t meet many ppl like that these days.

But then again, maybe I was fooled (in a way) because maybe she was just like a salesman who gives you a small gift when you actually already paid a lot before that. T_T; because after thinking about it, she’s not really losing anything, because we won so many big macs before this, which we could have lost, so think how many cds she would’ve been giving us then.

But even if she wasn’t naturally nice, she’s still not so bad, because it was not necessary to give me the cd, but maybe she’s quite a PR person, I dunno.

Anyway, I’ve finished blogging, & I should be studying now, since I really feel like I’m gonna fail law. O_O;

It’s so stupid, how can anyone remember so friggin much?!? T_T; it just goes on & on & on, & it’s hard to write & answer the stupid question~ ;-(

That’s why I think it’s obvious I still haven’t grown up yet, but I don’t see how I can suddenly grow up, but maybe I must just answer law questions every day & try to write as much as possible without actually writing crap. ^^;

Sorry to end it like this, I shouldn’t be complaining about my problems, so I’ll really stop here. ;-)

See ya next time! ^__^

PS: is the post short? XP
