Pai Jia Le..

..


Name... name... name...

What is in a name?

I still remember the trouble I had gone through for each of my child, just to get them a name. All of the should be done within 14 days to avoid the fine imposed by the authority.

Well, if you are too busy working for money, you can do it later... but this will only making the government richer. Does not make sense, right... you are trying to earn some money, but willing to give it up to the government!


Therefore, better solve the issue and life goes on.


What is in a name?

This an excerpt of the conversation after leaving office for dinner, in a car:


Me: Where are we going... any good recommendation?

Him: Pai jia le... (Not good to eat..!)

Me: .... what?

Him: Pai jia le!

Me: wei.. I knowlah... the cake for tea just now taste so bad...

Him: Pai jia le!!

Me: Yup.. agreed... more like not fresh.. because we are suppose to eat it for morning break...

Him: Pai jia le!!!

Me: Hei.. are you listening to me? Where are we going for dinner.. I am starving!!!


This is where we went for dinner.. Pai Jia Le!



"Pai Jia Le" sounds like "not good to eat" in Hokkien Language


The food there... not bad!!
