Updated!

Been a few days since I've blogged. Yea i think i should update more regularly. But been kinda lazy lately. I rougly summarise what happened in the past couple of weeks or so.

Tuesday (12 June '07)
Went for ktv with some classmates!
Si Yi, Rachel, Li Feng, Yong Jie, Sze Jun, Alan Teo, Kelvin was there.
But none of the girls sang, except Si Yi at least knew a few songs. It was a very nice day to hang out with, just that I was shocked to see the prices at like $16 per person. Expected it to be around $11 lo. Ha. But one thing I learnt. The tidbits is free-flow! Next time should eat as much as we can since it's free! lol. But Yong Jjie warns that it's easy to get soar throat by eating those. We gave most of our share to the girls, who were responsible for helping us eat tidbits! haha. At least they didnt go for nothing ok! But kinda waste of money to just go there and sit. =X
Next time should get more people to go.


Friday (15 June '07)
Did some recording before going to Bugis to play (watch actually) people playing arcade. Someone completed the whole of the House of the Dead. Not like it's something to be excited about, but it's my first time witnessing that. Yewf explains the story behind the game. The story is kinda complicated with the story of the House of the Dead 4 followed up by the story in House of the Dead 3. Guess I shall just read up on it myself when I'm free.

*Btw, yewf was late and he made jia ming and I wait for an hour! His gf was supposed to come but didn't! Hmm. Wondering what he's up to anyway.

After that I walked him home from pasir ris mrt. Had 2 cans of jolly shandy each too. Lots of things to share! He did talk about somethings I never thought someone would say behind my back, and some lies I shoulda realise or exploited. Ha. But nvm. Let it be. To be fakin' it? I'd rather do that thing I do.

So we chit-chatted for hours at his house void deck. Ah. Cant remember about the frog incident. We heard croaking sounds echoing in the void deck. Being curious in nature, he and i decided to find out what that sound was. In the end the sound came from the recycling bin areas. After listening closely, and with a little of common sense, it must be a frog/ toad! Ah. It's just funny how a frog can land up being in the bin. How unfortunate!

So that day I reached my house at 2 instead of 10. I told my sis I'd reach home at 10, but it never was the case. By the time I came back, even my brother, who usually reaches home later than anyone else in the family, was home already. Lols. But it's been some long time since I've talked to him. Really miss ya dude. And come to think of it, I think I should go find Aaron, Yi He and Willis sometimes. Plus he added me on msn! Must show that he remembers me! How glad!


Saturday (16 June' 07)
Soccer! As usual. This time I woke up late, only for yx to be even later. In the end reached there at around 9.30 instead of 9. But who cares anyway? Everyone's always late. Lol. But this time the clouds were really all dark. Knew from the start it was gonna rain. So in the end we canceled the match. Gabriel and Mary Anne didnt come. Actually we expected it to rain heavily continuously. So we went for brunch. Then the rain stopped. How uncoincidental! But Chang Song suggested we continue playing soccer. So we played for a match or two before the rain set in again. This time for real. We hung out at the void deck near the netball court. Yx, hong shan, bryan were playing among themselves. Then louis, sam tang, thien soon, yong zhi and i were just fooling around and being childish. Playing in the rain with soccer and we came up with a stupid game which nobody obeyed the rule! haha. How childish can we get. Then discussed with sam tang about the outing with jun wei on the saturday on the first week after the common tests. Hope to see all of them soon! After that we had lunch before walking home from kw's house there. In the end kw still forgot to take his game from me. Lols.


Sunday (17 June '07)
It was father's day. But apparently nobody in the house celebrates it. And everyone knows why. It was a pretty plain sunday. The most unforgettable thing was that my dad actually mentioned about the day in front of us. Over the phone, asking his friend how he was celebrating it. I think he was hinting at us. But to no avail. So we kinda celebrated, but not really actually. We went to 8881 restaurant at loyang. Their food used to be good, not till they changed their chef and their boss. Now their service sucks too. Can u imagine. We waited for 1 hour for our food to be served. How horrible. So we stoned an hour of our lives away. Coulda done something more productive. And the food was expensive! I think everything in Singapore has inflated in price. Nobody anticipates July '07.


Monday (18 June '07)

3 outings squeezed in one day. ONE DAY.

Morning:
4V outing at sentosa. Zoe, Cadence, Michelle, Tricia, Mary Anne, Gabriel, Shawb, Benny and I turned up. A disappointing outing with so few people. Lols. Cheryl came late and Bao Chuan couldnt come cause she was grounded. So there was the few of us, nothing to do at sentosa. Except zoe, cadence, mary anne and I swam a bit. The rest didn't want to get wet. The guys were playing soccer. Then Mary Anne suggested we go watch movie at vivo city. But I couldn't. Had to leave early. Cheryl came and cadence left. So the number of people remained the same.

Went for lunch at kopitiam. Inflated prices again! But so long as it filled my tummy I didnt really mind though. Thought we could at least chit-chat a bit at the place, but it seemed like there wasn't any common topic among the girls and the guys. We're not that close afterall, I guess. =X Ah. And so they went to watch Fantastic Four while Benny kepy calling me not to pang seh them! haha. I couldn't. Promises are meant to be made, then realised. =D

Afternoon:
Mini OG27 outing.
TCC at raffles place. YC thought I didn't know the way there. But I always knew I had a fairly good sense of direction. Haha. Reached there at around 3 when they met at 1 or so. Yu Chuan organised this thing. Was meant to celebrate his birthday but I forgot his to bring his present!Have to bring it next time then. No choice. Initially I thought it was only gonna be Ryanna, Mandy, YC and I. But royston and bennedic were there too. Didn't know how to react in the most appropriate way 'cause it was my first time meeting benedic and I always felt awkward when being around with yc's friends. We're not close to them anyway. Had a cheesecake which we all shared. (I hope to get the pics uploaded here somehow) The cheesecake there is really nice! Highly recommended by me! Hah.

They all brought something to study and revise and me, empty0-handed. YC lent me his notes to study, but it just doesnt seem the same as mj's. Mj's notes are more comprehensive and easily understood. That's one thing I like about their notes.


Anyway, straight to the point, we discussed about Jing Nan's sending off at the airport. It's gonna be so emotional! I'll miss her as a very good friend of mine. Someone I didn't know, nor did I ever contemplate to being good friends with. But we did. Haha. Hope to continue writing so long as the friendship stands =D and yea. Mandy was telling me about making cards and notes for her. Let's see what we can do about it though. =D

Evening/ Night:
207 Outing
Seeing that time was running out, I left TCC at around 6. Made it to simpang within minutes. Reached tanah merah at around 6.30 and walked to the street soccer court. Reached at 7. By then the sky was getting darker every second, and it was hard to see the ball in the weak light intensity. But we had fun.


First match was a thriller. We trailed behind by a single silly goal that we never should have conceded. Then Sze Jun struck with 2 nicely-capped goals. The second from the tightest of angles which he slotted the ball in. 2-1 the game ended.

Next up, against a very physical side who used all means to ensure victory. Push, nudge, elbow, slidding tackles all over the court. IT WAS SCARY YES IT WAS. Everyone in the team were unhappy with the way the opponent reacted to our dominance. We did dominate, actually, put were out-muscled to their inferior physique. I was even elbowed in the face. Eugene grew impatient, and the team subsequently gave up on the game. We had to rush for the bbq anyway.

Just a match to remember. I thought I did quite well as a centre back. =D

BBQ at rachels' house. I didn't cook actually, it was much up to clarice, si yi and yong jie. si yi should have went to enjoy herself with the others. But she didn't. So nice of her! Ha. Everyone did take their turn to cook, but I didn't. Guess that was why I didn't get much to eat either. I was left starving even after the fire was ceased.

Had a game of mahjong which I just stood around to watch. Actually what's the fascination over mahjong about? A hobby to pass time with? haha. Actually it's a very intelligent game, but it can be very time-consuming actually. Play cards? Out for me. I was too bored. Swim? I couldn't, having been pulled into the water at sentosa, my extra set of clothes were all drenched. I didn't have any spare. So all I did was to gaze at the stairs at the playground. What a night. Twinkling stars and the feeling was.. so soothing, so peaceful, so serene, so graceful.

Yong Jie, Sze Jun and Jian Yao had a small little chat. I think Jian Yao over-reacted a bit. But it was a nice conversation we had. I think he just needed to chill down though.
After the whole thing ended, Rachel sent us off near simpang. Really nice of her and a great host to have! =D eugene actually thought he was headed to the correct direction and joined jian yao and I at the bus stop with the bus headed to Tanah Merah MRT. Minutes later Eugene had a change of heart and decided to join the rest in the opposite direction. So it was just.. Jian Yao and I. YEA. So what? We had a non-chalant conversation with an array of topics to talk about. Actually I think he and I share quite a lot of similarities! It's nice to always find a friend who shares similar personalities as yourself.

EMO!
2 people talked to me that day. Both emo-ing when they should feel happy. I shan't leak, but to you two, things arent as bad as they seem. Go for it. Somethings don't happen by themselves. You gotta make it happen. So work towards it yea!

An unforgettable Monday. One that'll I'll probably never have. Busy, yet so many things to ponder over. I like this feeling.


Tuesday (19 June '07)
端午節. Chinese's traditional event of the year. And cultural too. I came across a few tv shows discussing about the history behind it, and finally got an overview of the whole story. China does have a history, no doubt. And till today we're still celebrating. For years and centuries.

Went Grandma's house in the morning. Couldn't really be bothered to be involved in the various conversations going on at he dining table. With them around, it's always about academics. Why be so bird-brain. It really doesn't mean, nor does it represent anything. Life isn't just about studies, as 婷婷姐姐talked about. Not like you needed a cert to breathe =D

2nd Aunt fetched us back home. and after that I just fm-ed all the way till at night, when my dad actually asked me out to watch movie with him?! Belated father's day it seems, but it's still better than nothing. Ocean 13 is indeed a nice show with thrilling and tricky scenes. The characters in the show are too brave, confident and smart. Someone any girl would fall for. Lol. But it was a nice movie and I wouln't mind watching it all over again. I'd rather view back the previous shows of ocean. They should be as nice, or even nicer than ocean 13. I simply like these kinda plots and stories. Hope to read or watch such stories next time.

Anyway, time is ticking away and it's only a matter of days before the exams start.. I'd better start studying just in case.
