I was passing Chowking late yesterday noon so I decided to drop by for a quick lunch. While going in, I was already calculating my expenses. I wanted to eat chicken laureate but the serving is too much aside from the price that’s abit expensive compared to the beef chowfan or any any bowl of noodles. I ordered beef chowfan and an ordinatry type of tofu. No drinks. I was carrying 1 pc of tamarind (orange) and my handbag. After giving my order and paying the bill, the lady asked, “SDA ka ma’am?” (Are you an SDA, ma’am?) I was surprised thinking what made her able to ask me that. So after my positive nod, I asked her, “how did you know?” She said, “wala man gud kay paraphernalia” (you don’t have any jewelries seen) with her hand pointing to the direction from ears to neck and hands. I smiled. Imagining myself, I don’t have all those jewelries and no make-up either (unlike her) and I was not sure if my lip paint is still shows. hahahahaha whatever – am jsut glad I was not wearing any of my fancy rings or else she can never asked me that question.

In the church I belong to, jewelries or any accessories aside from the wristwatch is not encouraged. But i have weaknesses to like and be attracted on rings that’s why I own a few fancy ones. I have jade necklaces but I never use them. It’s the ring I often used when am not at work with a thought that it is for self defence.
