Subway

Nasaan na yung taga Subway na ang tawag sa akin ay 'princess' ? Bakit hindi na sya pumapasok?

ok fine, binasa niya lang naman yung nakasulat sa T-shirt ko. Oo dapat Tagalog baka may magalit na naman hehehe.

Anyway, Wayne asked me a while ago "Gabi-gabi kang nagsa-Subway?"

No, not every night. I go there very often though. It's very convenient for me because it's the nearest establishment from my room where I could buy food. SO how about the frugality thing I've been talking about? Because eating Subway nightly doesn't seem very cheap. At first I've been having guilt trips too, but when I thought about it and made some calculations, I get value for money eating Subway dinner in the end.

To justify the extra cost I pay for a delectable Subway sandwich versus buying sucky food from YIH that I very seldom get to finish (oh did I just mention one reason?), I don't spend a cent for breakfast (because I never have time for it - have to rush to class every morning), so I can rollover my breakfast budget for dinner. Anyway, I only pay $3.20 for my Subway sandwich because I always show my matric card so I can have a discount, and that's even less than what I've allocated for breakfast+dinner.

And second (and the most important reason), I get to eat vegetables. Lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, green bell peppers, and some alien stuff. As a kid I hated vegetables. If there's anything in the world I hate more than a vegetable, that would be TWO vegetables. And if there's anything in the world I hate more than TWO vegetables...anyway you get the drift. It's just recently that I decided to do my body a favor and tried eating vegetables. Actually, it's only when I got here in Singapore that I started eating veggies. However, sometimes the veggies from other food stalls still suck, but I order a serving anyway. I have this psychological hoo-ha that if there's veggie in my plate, it would 'contaminate' its surrounding food with its nutrients, so even if I don't really eat the veggies, my brain is conditioned that I'd still get to absorb the nutrients and thus be healthy.

Of course it's stupid.

But, with Subway, I eat all the veggies the serving crew dumps in it. Like pizza - I eat everything that's on top of pizza. With Subway, I eat everything that's inside of it. And some more, everything is fresh. The bread is fresh - they bake their own bread. Their sandwich is definitely fresh - they make it in front of you.


The food is really yummy and healthy, it makes me feel full, and I always get a discount - so I'm happy.

PS

I don't think I'll ever buy from any other Subway branch apart from the one here in campus though. First of all, I might want to try eating other food for a change...and secondly, the price is quite expensive for me without the NUS matric card discount. Hee.
