Chocolate is an Expensive, Exotic Thing

Yep, so yesterday's Maths we continued to go through the paper. Unlike two days ago, there were no arguments regarding the paper. So RF gave Chian Fern and I a bar of 50 g Toblerone for topping 3LEnriched and 3MEnriched respectively. Fu Ginn took Chian Fern's bar while well, I kept mine with the intention to distribute it to the class afterwards.

So well I was waiting for the right time to give out the chocolates. Near the end of the lesson, I found my chance when he finished going through the graph question.

Me: Sir, can I give out chocolates now?
RF: No? It's for you!
Me: I believe in communism.
RF: I don't.
*I return to my seat*
RF: It's up to you. It's yours already.

Since he didn't want it... I waited until he went out of class before opening the bar of chocolate.

The wrapper of the bar of Toblerone

Beneath the cover, the chocolate was enclosed in a thin foil of aluminium just like the kit-kat chocolate bars you have. And beneath the foil, the chocolate was segmented into triangular sections, each engraved with a letter of the word TOBLERONE.

I started giving out segments of chocolate to people to the left of the classroom. At the start people weren't like acting very wrong, but by the time I reached the back of the classroom, people were like rushing to me and saying, "I want! I want!"

We are in Secondary 3M, not Primary 3M.

I was remotely disgusted. Even the refugees line up for free food, and this was just chocolate. Yet, I distributed on. Until there was one segment left in the aluminium foil.

I said that there was nothing left, and conveniently slipped the last segment into my mouth.

Toblerone. I haven't tasted it for years, literally. My aunt used to buy it for me, but stopped long ago, about Primary 5. The packaging hasn't changed for years, although flavours (Dark Chocolate etc) have been added.

This is one of the first few rewards I've ever had in my secondary school life. In the first two years, Mrs Selvan used to give kit kats. Ms Aymie Lim gave chocolates too, but I never got them. Then this year Mr Ong gave chocolates for top in assignments and tests.

*Fast forward to after third lang*
Me: We should laugh often, just like chocolate, it releases endorphins!
Hwee Leong: No? Chocolate releases sex hormones.
Me: They do?! Then Raymond Fong gave me chocolates, what does that mean?!
Hwee Leong: Imagine if _____________ gives chocolates... that time he gave M&M's to _________ and he cut out the wrapper and pasted it in his diary.

*Fast forward to NTUC*
I checked the price of Toblerone out of curiosity. It turns out that FairPrice Bedok didn't sell the 50 g one. The 100 g one was $2.34 and the 30 g one was 95¢. So the 50 g one should be $1.30 to $1.50.

Chocolate is expensive, isn't it.
