Happy Holidays

The holidays has been a crazy, tiring and nonetheless fun affair. I watched enchanted with shen on monday. That was after travelling all the way to the ICA to make myself a new passport (i had a retarded incident regarding that too but i'll leave that for later.) Enchanted was hilarious, and the ending's a little different from your typical fairytale although it was still a happy one. Anyway, shen must be enjoying herself in hk, so I've one less person to hang out with this week.

Tuesday, i attended MCR's concert. Thankfully Mr Tsin with his huge network of friends managed to get a queue jumper and we could stand near the stage and be nearer the band. I didn't really enjoy the concert considering all that squashing I was subjected to and Mr Tsin who was shaking his head and subjecting me to some hair in my mouth. It was a kiddy concert seriously, and I felt old being there, lots of secondary school kids with their ah beng tshirts and punk attitude. The band wasn't that bad, but in my opinion gerard grey's just too fat and gay in his tight shirt and jeans which were threatening to split any moment. Regrets: 95 bucks which i can never get back, getting squashed by children half my age but twice my size. Glad: The songs weren't too bad.

LIVERPOOL won MARSEILLE 4-0. Absolutely wonderful performance from the whole team, and Liverpool once again defied the odds to qualify for the next round. Simply fantabulous, the very reason why i love them to bits.

Wednesday, was a blissful day, I filled myself with so much dim sum during an afternoon buffet, it became something like 3 meals at a go. Hao gave us a birthday treat at YUM CHA. Ok, special thanks to him since its really unlike him to give treats. The buffet wasn't cheap too at 20++. The shirmps and scallops were on free flow, and our typical kiasu spirit was evident from the start, we devoured the baskets of dimsum with such fervour, we weren't really talking for the first ten mins. Oh it was 5 of us, sy, dave, hao, keith and me. We could hardly walk after the buffet, but we decided to make a trip down to clark quay and get a reservation for the big match on sun. Liverpool vs Manchester Utd. Its gonna be a nailbiting clash that I'll have to sit through. A match, which I can't bear to watch and yet need to.

Thursday was the first sunny day of the week, I got Mat to wake up at very very early hour to tan ourselves. The warren golf and country club is a really peaceful and quiet resort to relax for a day. The sun was shining and I think we overdid it a little with all that Sun. So now we're as red as roasted pigs. Its Christmas though, so nothing wrong with being a little radiant and festive to raise the spirits. haha. Had a dinner with the NDU guys in the evening at NYDC, first time I ever went to NYDC in the 21 years of my life, was great catching up, most of them are at NTU so I hardly get to chat with them. Caught hitman which was an action packed movie, and i really can't be bothered to describe it. 5 of us hung around till late. We went bowling at ECP, I struck a turkey haha, unbelievable and got 150 points! Then it was supper before tsin and me went to seb's house and had a boy's night out, slumber party style. That sounds gay, ok we just played x box and some mahjong and texas hold em, got too tired and fell asleep in seb's bed, which was humongous. Cos the 3 of us managed to sleep in it, and when tsin is one of them you can just imagine how big it is. His blanket was huge too. How can someone so small have such a large bed, like my bed is 1/3 the size of his.

Friday, I wanted to go to ICA to collect my passport. To my dismay, I went into the building got myself a queue number and sat there for 20 mins, then I realised I forgot to bring my old singapore passport. I was so fucking pissed with myself, i wanted to be mad! Oh well i didn't really have any choice but to make my way home. Slept away 3 hours, before I went to zouk for a ad hoc job. The pay was good at 10 bucks an hour. I didn't do much for the first 2 hours except to move some stuff. My job was to be a casino banker at dice. you know like "big or small". I was yelling throughout the hour I was working, and its quite amazing how people can get so excited over gambling. Some guy managed to showhand his way to an amazing 200 chips from a start of 5. I wonder what kinda luck he had on his side. The boss for the event management company didn't want to pay us ot. But asked us to have food and drinks on the house. So gee, wei lun and me had a crazy time eating non-stop and drinking alcohol and coke. It was worth it in the end. In fact, I also got a chop on my hand for zouk so technically, i have free entry now. But clubbing's not fun alone so I'm back home typing this entry.

Ok, thats all for this week need to spend more time with my bed. I miss you.
