dejavoooo

Lately i noticed something funny, like, whenever i hear about a 'topic' which very seldom crops up, the same thing will be mentioned twice in the same day, by different people, in different discussions.

Example 1

During lunch with my cols, one of the 'mothers' said that her baby was sick the other day and she had to bring her baby to the clinic. Then the discussion shifted to immune shots given to mothers and babies, like rubella, rotavirus, etc....

Then the very same evening, my fren told me that his wife and him were having diarrhea and had to go to the hospital in the middle of the nite. Prior to that, they had already gone to 3 clinics before the correct diagnosis was given. They contracted Rotavirus....

Example 2

I was telling Annie thru IM that i wanna get a new eye cream, coz GongLi (aka Loreal Revitalift) made my eyes super puffy. And annie said that she's using Origins, coz its all natural and without parabens. So i asked, wats with parabens. Caused cancer in the long run.....okkkk...

That very same evening, i met my Kinokuniyan best fren Yili together with her gym fren in Pavilion for dinner. And this gym fren had just bought some toiletries from Caring and was telling me that she's obsessed with toothpaste and will try any new brands, and this new toothpaste that she bought is ...ta da...without parabens....

There...freaky aint it.

Okay, digressing slightly: One of the chain pharmacies in the country which is also green in color and rhymes with parkson is making a lot of boo-boos in pricing, so shop there often..i bought the biggest sized listerine (with free 250ml!) for 14.80! Normal price 17.90-19.90, promo price is usually 33.90 for 2 bottles. This happened at the jusco maluri branch. And lady-item that i buy which is normally 7.90 was 3.88! I stopped the cashier and made a dash to grab another. This happened at the pd branch. sooo..i'm convinced there's a nationwide system crash/server bug/staffing problem ...
