I'm back.. haha..

Finally got the time and mood and energy to blog....
Ok.. firstly, to explain the long absence...
I got chalet from 3oth Nov till 2nd Dec, then was kept busy for the enxt few days till today...

Chalet... well.... think it was fine,on the 2nd story, quite big... 2 bed rooms and 1 living rooms.... and we had at least a little more than half the class attended... not too bad i guess... considering the present class spirit.... i would say it was quite remarkable for that amount of people to attend...

I cycled there... took 1 hour plus... followed the MRT tracks all the way to Pasir Ris....
We spent the days, especially the first day, playing cards ( mainly Dai Di), and chinese chess..( very cultural right?).. Drawed alot of matches with Zi Kang in the Chinese Chess....( although i very long never play le.. and he Chinese Club one)...
We went to Wild Wild Wet on the 2nd day.... not bad i would say... very long never play this type of water slides liao.... enjoyed it alot... especially the 6 people big slide.. we sat and went "WOW" together whenever the slide went up to 1 side....
That night, we had our BBQ... actually everything would have been fine if not for some "mouth".... sometimes i really wonder how come some people just like to shoo things out without considering other people's feelings..... i think this is a very serious human error.....
The situation is like this... Nigel and I were given the job of setting up the BBQ fire.. and we did it nice and well... while the rest were still at the room.... and so we waited down there for them to get the food down...
And so... they came. And by the time they come, the fire was already not as big... become gentle fire already... but it is still ok , because if too big, then the food will get burnt on the outside, and not cooked on the inside.... but of course... some people don't see that... and started to say things about nigel and me... things like " wa lao... ODAC one leh....".. and " the guys in our class not very useful"....
And of course... naturally we should take it as a joke... but considering that the people who said this didn't help out, but just complain, and used "MY CCA" against me... it speaks volumes about their character..... and i am particularly unhappy with people who use my CCA against me...it's very rude and not helpful.....
And so... the pissed me started to buld up the fire.... added alot of charcoal... don't care liao.... my mian focus ios to get the fire big.... and that i did.... and so some food got burnt, but still remained uncooked inside... and i didn't care... since i am not eating much of it... most of the food are sent to the people upstairs watching "Singapore Idol".... what a fun BBQ~~~~
And well, i wouldn't say it was all a bad thing... the chalet.... at least i got to meet a ex-classmate, Bernbard... then also played alot of games... and at least the "ON" guys and some of the "On" girls got stay throughout... so i would say it is quite ok.... well.... cna't expect much either....
On this note, i think we really shloud thank the people involved in the organisation, such as Andrew for the Chalet, Yan Xi for the "marination" of chickens.. and whoever else......

And when we booked out, i rushed home on my bike .... sped all the way.... because i need to get home urgently... think ate too much uncooked food or something.... and also to meet some ODAC friends for a KTV session....
This time, i took the shorter route.... and took a little bit less time.... then rushed home, bathed, changed, and went out to meet them at Dhouby Ghaut.. i was so tired on the journey there... fell asleep on the bus... but still, managed to drag myself there....

We sang for few hours.... i didn't want to sing much.. because firstly... i am shy... haha...singing infront of girls is a very award situation for me( got Yvonne and Angeline)... so i kept my singing to a minimal.... and well, another reason is to let TWK sing more... because he going to be enlisted soon... so let him enjoy more.... ^_^ ( see... i am such a good friend)...
I also appeared very sian and listless to them.. because i was very tired.... ( at the chalet... bedtime is 0300 a.m. onwards....).... but still, manage to sing a few songs "well"... ( hey.. don't expect much... i am a very "low-toned" man....)
And after the KTV session... met LKL and Alvin to accompany TWK to see a "CAP".... at Sun Tech.... i repeat... we went all the way to Sun Tech to see a CAP...... and well, kkk and i took the chance to also look around for prom clothes.... at that time, i am still indecisive on whether i should tailor-make my suite or buy separately....

And well, the next day... met my classmates go see prom clothes... this time is acutally suppose to buy liao.. but that morning, before meeting them, i went to check out the Giant Supermarket at Bedok interchange.. becuase i remembered they got a tailor shop inside... so if there got, then i no need to go Hou Gang to tailor-make my suite... no need to travel so far... and i found a deal... $89.90 for a blazer and pants...but is ready made one... and i thought it wasn't such a bad idea...
And so, i went with my friends to Orchard.. again.. and bought 2 shirts at G2000 for $49...
Then wanted to buy the Giant supermarket deal later... but don't know whether it is good luck or not.... don't have my size.... so.... i got to go back the next day( which is today) to get my size.... and so after the visit, i met Alvin and LKL to get my bikes to go crush TWK's BBQ at East Coast Park.... we cycled there... ate a little, played some "Dai Di"... adn well.... the bike LKL cycled got a flat front tyre halfway through.. dono why.... think he knock onto something...
Then in the end, left only the 3 of us plus TWK, Karen and Natalie.... so because Karen's parents fetching her, she offered Natalie and LKL a ride home... and so TWK, ALvin and me cycled to my house....
On the journey.. another "sway" thing happened.... the bike i riding.. the chain suddenly "dislocated" from the gears... and so i got to dirty my hands and pulled them back to the gear teeths... and i got 1 complain here.. for TWK....
He forced himself upon my best and lightest bike... and yet he cycled the slowest.... diao~~~
Though cannot blame him ( he's a novie at cycling).. i still think it was quite slow....
Following that.... i sent Alvin and TWK to a bus stop near my house so that they can try to catch the last bus.... and so i got to bring 3 bikes home myself from there... and it was very tiring....i locked one at the HDB, then cycled while pulling another bike back first...and it was a real test on my strength and skill.... because i was pulling a bike lower than the bike that i am riding...and especially at the life... got so much problem that i became really pissed.... hiaz... no choice though... still got to get the bikes home.... and then i went back for the other bike....
By the time i reach home... so "bloody tired".... then still got to wash my clothes... and hands of the oil dirt.... really very tired..... so didn't blog

And well, at least i got to sleep late today...so got back my energy.... but i noticed that everytime after a trip to Orchard... i will wake up with a body of sore and aches..... very tiring....
And today actually wanted to go Giant get my suite... but after some discussion... i ended up buying my whole suite from G2000... ( same a KKK.. hee hee... but keep this a secret).. because my Brother thought that since i want to buy, might as well buy a good one... next time still can use... and so my Brother drove me to Tampinese Mall G2000 to get it....
On the whole.. i spent around $300++ on the suite...
Blazer + pants = $199.00
Shirt = $24.50
Tie= $26.10
Socks= $7.00
Prom ticket= $80.00..........

For the socks... actually not buying one... but since i bought the blazer and pants for $199.... $1 short for 2 $20 vochers ($100 for 1), we just chose the cheapest... the socks... to get over $200...
(So "jian"... purposely put $199 to make people want to buy more to get the vocher....)

But anyway... i finally got the whole suite ready!!!!!
Come to think of it... i should have just bought evertthing from G2000 from the start... i didn't do so because i saw the price tag wrongly... i thought $199 for only the blazer.... man... wasted so much of my time... Haiz... but still... i finally got it.... not bad lar... all black... with a silver tie.... haha.... can become "he se hui" there.... but i don't know is it because my arm "abit big", the sleeves there abit tight.... a little bit only... so i didn't mind it...haha... looking forward to the prom....

Finally.... sort of summarised my past few days.... Phew... tomrrow still got soccer match... gopt to wake up early and be punctual... or else will kena scolding again... so that's about it for today.... or shlould i say... yesterday?
