Excuse me.... how much is this......??


How many times did u ask this question ...to the wrong person!!!???
My count is endless!! lol!

This happens mostly in the malls or supermarket!
ruddy hell....i alwaysss end up asking the wrong person...
Once it so happened...tht my family and my neighbours were shopping in a mall...and my neighbours kid...had to go to the loo urgently... gaaawd... i was chosen to show her where the loo was.. !! that really was'nt a problem...but finding out where the loo was...err...a bit ...ehm ehm!
so... mission started..."where is the washroom?"
so first i looked here and there... and the kid...: "akka pls...fast"
omg!! another tension...i hope she doesnt finish off her work bfore reaching the washroom!
So ... there was a guy who was just standing there...
Me:" excuse me...washroom??"
he gives me a strange look... he said ..."i donno!" and turned away very rude!
Later did i undertsand that it was d wrong guy.... rather the wrong Question...lol!!
mayb he wldnt mind if i askd him..."Hi...I'm...reeta/meeta/sita and u r ...??"
anyways...my mission to direct that kid to the right place was accomplished successfully! phew!! :P :P

recently... mom & I went to a super market... mom asked to get a few items...and she went to the ATM ..
so...i went in there.. and i frgot the dal she askd me to get.. but i remember how it looked like... so i thought i would search for myself...[bcos i dint wanna humiliate anymore ppl...either by asking the wrong ppl or the wrong Questions...lol!]
so my search began...after few seconds ...i found it...yippeee!! ....oh no... but i wanted a half kg packet.... in that instant i turned...and asked the guy next to me...: " ee pappu 1/2 kg undha babu" [in english : hey do u have half kg of this item... ]
he lookd @ me...and turned away... well i thgt he was partially deaf...
i askd him again...: " hullo...and repeated my Q"
then a girl from my left came and gave me a 1/2 kg packet....thn i realised that...he was a guy like me searching for a packet himself!!
gawwd...i fled from there!
Luckily never met the same people again ......!
I told myself.."Next time.... be careful lady.....otherwise someone might end up asking 'u' d same Question[s].." ; -) ;-)

Hi ,
I just happen to read your blog. It is nice the first one thats asking a wrong person . Happens many a times we need to just say sorry and main thing is prioritizing our aim . When we focus on that we need not feel bad for anything . Take it as learning out of mistakes if we do a mistake then only we will learn and then only we will be cautious about everything .. Keep posting ..
