As Stereo gazed into his eyes, he was thinking how surprising it was to see an old friend after 7 1/2 years. His old friend had changed a lot. His hair; it became from brownish to blueish. His eyes; they became bigger because his specs had amazingly increased in size - which confuses Stereo, it's like seeing an Ah Beng (gangster) who loves books instead of fighting. Well, maybe he DOES reads books on fighting. His shoulders became broader such that you can hang a Puma jacket on them. And of course, last but not least, his nose; there's 3 holes now instead of 2. The third hole? It came from his piercing. I personally find it quite silly for one to pierce his own nose. We're not cows, we don't work in a Padi field. Wait, I mean bulls. Sorry.

Learning point no.1: Cows don't work in padi fields.

"Stereo! It's you!!"

"Radio! It's been a long time man!!"

Yeah, his name is Ron Radio.

"Man, I know we haven't seen each other for such a long time. But can you stop gazing into my eyes. You look gay." Ron Radio said to Stereo.

"Dude, I'm looking at your facial growth.."

Stereo was quite disappointed to suffer accusations right at the point of bumping into an old friend.

"Growth?" Radio smiled sarcastically.

"For God's sake, I'm not talking about your Little Radio!"

"Woah, woah, woah. I was just kidding man. Relax, chill. Chillax. I know you're straight alright."

But Radio giggled.

"Right...right. You know what, YOU'RE the gay one. Look at your third hole!"

"THIRD hole?!"

"I meant your nose idiot! Look at your piercing man! You look like a female bull!"

They suddenly stopped and laughed at how silly they looked like as people gathered around them to see what's going on.

Learning point no.2: Noses look good with not more than 2 holes.

After 10 minutes of laughter, they went to a nearby McDonald's to catch up with old times. It was quite funny coming to think of it. They used to quarrel alot during their childhood times. And now they even started their unexpected meeting by quarrelling. They talked about all kinds of stuffs; from food to politics, from warfare to games, from girls to gays. from horses to cars - you name it. Then suddenly, came an opportunity which Stereo didn't expect at all.

"Dude, I'm working with MP3 pte.ltd. There's a vacancy there. You wanna take 'em?"

"Yeah, man. Sounds cool!"

Hence the next day, Stereo met Radio and they went off to the company. But something surprised Stereo immediately upon their arrival. MP3's not an electrical company, it's a matchmaking agency..

"Dude, what in the Green Heaven is this?" Stereo asked.

"My company!"

"But I thought your company makes MP3s!"

"No, you got it all wrong. MP stands for Merry People."

"What! Then why the number 3?!"

"'Cause they're 3 outlets."

Learning point no.3: Don't trust a nerdy Ah Beng.

So Stereo felt like executing The People's Elbow on him. For those of you who do not know what it means, this is what The People's Elbow looks like:





But anyways, seeing that he needs $75 more towards his final goal, Stereo agreed to work with MP3 pte.ltd. All he had to do was to key in customers' profiles into the computer. He's only required to do one project, which means he'll be receiving $50 in return. At first everything was okay, until he accidentally mixed things up...and that was when something happened.

Learning point no.4: Stereo's in deep trouble.

The company accepts people who are between 18-45 years of age, so one of his tasks is to key in their ages as well. That's where Stereo got it all mixed up. He accidentally keyed in a 45-year-old widow as an 18-year-old single. However, Stereo blamed Radio since he distracted him during work. He kept mixing customers' faces using morphthing.com. Well Stereo kinda enjoyed it too. But the main thing is that it's damn distracting. Imagine seeing a 40 year old man with a white beard mixed with a 20 year old girl with a blonde hair. That's like mixing Osama and Britney Spears.

Learning point no.5: Osama is not Britney's husband.

Countdown to Stereo Headset: $25 more to go

That's the end of Part 3. You may ask yourself: "What happened when Stereo accidentally keyed in the woman's age wrongly?" Well, to find out what happened after that, be sure to catch Stereo's Headset; and the things that go with it Part 4! 'Till then!
