Eating Dork-out # 1

At least it's the first one posted....

No thanks to my habit of being rash, my stomach acid's about to go on a frenzy...
(AAAAAAARRRGH!!!!!!! STUPID GASTRITIS!!!)
And what does my stupidity have to do with this?
I ate too much chilli sauce.

But first, a long story...

See, after I came back from Makassar (located in Celebes Island, where my grandparents live)  to Bandung (located in Java Island, where I'm studying), I brought some "otak-otak" to share with my board-mates.
Otak-otak is pretty much grilled fish cakes wrapped in banana leaves (I think that's what it is..), and Makassar's otak-otak is the best one I've eaten so far.
They seemed to like it, since the number of how much otak-otak in the box was getting smaller each day..
Then my mom texted me that the ones she brought to Batam (an island near Singapore, where my family lives) had gone bad, and told me to clean the box before the fish cakes go bad.

Apparently the fridge back home isn't as good as the one here at the board.
The ones I brought were just fine even WEEKS after she texted me.
Then I took a look today and found there were only two left, and the spicy sauce that came with it still had half of its contents.
I dunno if the others preferred the cakes without its sauce or they just didn't see it since someone placed it behind the box.

So..seeing that I'm the one who brought it, at least I get the right to take the last ones :P
After heating them up I realized that two cakes weren't enough to be eaten with (at least) 1 pint of sauce, but I tried to make the most of it -_-;
A few minutes later the cakes were in my stomach and there was still a lot of sauce left.

Curse my habit of cleaning my plate...
I thought it'd be a waste if I threw all that sauce away, so I did the stupid thing and added rice to it.
And yes people, I ate it.

How spicy was it?
Enough to make my ears hot.
I could swear I felt like those cartoon characters that have steam coming out of their ears.
Water didn't make the cut, and I ended up gulping down several spoonfuls of sugar.
And it seems like my gastritis is about to blow some steam as well...better take an antacid or two..

Good thing nobody saw me!!!!! XD
