A trip full of swearing..

Came back from Genting last night but was too tired to blog.. It was a fun trip all in all.. But tiring in some sense as well..

First day, set off at 4am. Went to Mustafa to change money first before heading to Causeway, armed with Macs breakfast bought from the drive-thru around Khatib area.. Traffic towards Msia was alright, though there was a jam due to stupid cars coming out of Msia taking the WHOLE of Causeway, meaning, every single lane in both direction taken up by them.. -.-" Eased up only when Police from Singapore side diverted traffic to where they belong.. Drove up to KL steadily... We hit the road after the Customs at 6am.. And were at the outskirts of KL at 10am! Haha.. Called Budd up at her KL home, she was still sleeping. -.-"

Checked into Awana at 1+pm and nuahed around for awhile.. Very tired, for those who travelled from Sg.. While Budd was lazing around despite waking up at 10am.. Haha.. But managed to gather enough strength to pull ourselves to the swimming pool. Boy.. Was it a good decision... The swimming pool was absolutely fantastic with a heated jacuzzi and a slide! Whoo!! Spent so long at the pool that our fingers and toes skin all crumpled up. haha.. Budd spent an hour sitting at the life guard's chair to avoid the sun.. Did alot of BIG splash down the slide. I was declared the winner. Haha.. Had dinner before making our way up to Genting Highlands via the old skyway.. It was like a scary movie I tell u. It was pitch dark, there was thunder and lightning and the cable car was swinging a little. It had the feeling like u are being brought to nowhere, but it was right towards where the lightning is.. Haha.. Best thrill ride.. But the trip up was just to satisfy the 3 other pple's desire to go up. Did absolutely nothing. Daryl and I almost KO while walking.. Finally got our sleep at 1am, 22 hrs after waking up, and with only 3 hrs of sleep before that..

Hmm, so 2nd day, woke up too late and the plan to go do big splash again was scrapped. Headed up to Highlands and checked into the hotel with the help of small aunt.. Had loads of fun at the Theme Park. Operation Kasino finally kicked in at 12 midnight, with Budd failing to sneak thru the gantry.. Sian.. Daryl, Dil and I went in to try our luck. At the end of the day, Daryl became RM200+ richer while I was RM10 richer. Haha. Oh wells.. Lady Luck must have a crush on Daryl.. =p

Went back to hotel room, to see all 3 of them sleeping. Ah by now if I havent mention, Budd's guy was there too, to make 5 of us.. Yah, Daryl and I see already nearly fainted. We pushed the 2 Queen sized bed together in the day to make sure we had enough space for 5 pple. But Budd and Kenny took one whole bed and Dil was curling up on the edge of the second. Daryl and I couldn't help but swear and swear.. Hence Dil's comment the next day that "I was wondering what these 2 guys were doing.. I just heard a lot of swearing.." Can't help it.. Daryl offered to sleep on the carpet floor. But I supposed it's darn dirty so I told him not to, by saying that Dil stepped on it with her shoes on earlier in the day, which is true.. I contemplated sleeping on chairs, sitting up.. But in the end decided to juz squeeze on the bed.. Dumb ass arrangement.. The 3 biggest sized out of the 5 that were there, on one bed. The other 2 on one bed. wtf. Sigh.. I hate u budd!!!!!!!! haha.. =p

The whole trip was nonetheless fun filled.. You put Daryl and I together = lots of swearing.. Some classic moments from the trip..

1. I was driving and said something in Chinese. Dil couldn't understand, but she used her trademark Chinese phrase "Ni shuo shen me".. But she added something behind to make it damn funny.. Booboo. Haha. She said, "Ni shou sha mar, jiang hua English.." She had wanted to use her template of "jiang hua yu" but remembered I was speaking in Chinese already and changed halfway, thus she blurped out that sentence. And I responded, "What, you want me to speak in smooth English? No prob!". Haha.. the hua2 means smooth also. Though it's different Chinese word, but same pronunciation. heh..

2. Dil was boasting how good she was in Malay cos she was able to read a few signs in the shopping mall. So Daryl and I pointed out tht Malay is her Mother Tongue.. She retorted that it wasn't as she isn't a Malay and her mom is an Indian so on and so forth. So I said, "education wise, Malay is your Mother Tongue." She had nothing to say liao. Haha. But only temporarily.
Dil (in all resentment): You guys are cock la.
Daryl: Then you what, pussy ah.
Dil: ...
Daryl: Or wad, Dildo ah.. (as she is affectionately known)
We were already laughing.. But I added sth..
Me: So wad, she goes *makes the vibrating sound*
And with that, I sent myself and Daryl crumbling down to the floor laughing our asses off.. With budd wondering what had happened..

3. Space shot.. Daryl sweared non-stop according to Budd and Dil.. What, this is shit.. Sucks balls.. And whole lot of other stuffs. Haha.. The feeling of the space shot is like...... Jumping off a building I guess... Really. You'll feel you left everything up there.. Wa lan eh.. That kind of feeling.. Undescribe-able. Heh.. I would have sweared alot too if I weren't sitting beside strangers.. Hehe...

Alot more swearing took place as and when they like. Courtesy of Daryl and I. I sweared alot while driving in heavy traffic.. Haha... Can't help it. As Dil puts it while we were crossing the JB customs back to Sg, "This is a trip full of swearing man." Agreed. =p

Story of Joan..

Read the feature on Life! today about this young lady called Joan. Some of you should have read it as well.. Managed to finish reading the whole 2 page cos I found it touching and brave.. The fact that she was from the NCC made me felt a kind of closeness to her.. I wondered if I've seen her before.. Maybe I have.. It's sad and cruel to see sucha young life battered by illness.. She's a year younger than me! But another point I picked up from her story which wasn't emphasised.. Do not leave anything to chance.. She had this ulcer on her tongue that refused to go away and she didn't have the time to go for check up as it was nearing A Levels. Hrm, really, leave nothing to chance I'd say.. Though I think I'm guilty of it much too often also. Well, who'd have thought of cancer to strike, at our 'tender' age..

I muz say her story truly touched me.. And I'm more impressed by her will to live and fight on.. All the best, fellow ex-NCC cadet..

On another note, leaving for a short trip to Genting tml with Dil and Daryl, driving up. Meeting budd there. Hope to have fun! and win some cash. Lucky Daryl, u ass. =p

Cristiano vs Zlatan

Beautiful beautiful commercial with absolutely nice music to go along with.. Love it.. =)

The GE..

And so, the GE is called.. More agonising in more than one way, now that I am officially 21 but still not able to vote. What the.. It wouldn't have been so bad, if it was before my birthday.. But now I am 21, but no right to vote. Hurhur..

Is there something the garmen has against pple born in 1985 ah? Well, we were the year which had the NRIC issuing changed from age 12 to 15.. The second BCG jab, (if you din need to have one in P6, you'll have it in Sec4) was scrapped when we were in Sec 4.. Mel can vouch for that. she had a jab before it was scrapped. Haha.. Er, and now this. I think along the way got other things also.. Sian.. Would be a freaking old cock cock by the time I cast my first vote.. Pleh.. Maybe Aljunied can have a by-election. Muahahhaha..

Well, I'm looking forward to going rally with my family at stadium etc.. Haha.. Had wonderful memories of going to one in 1997 at Hougang Stadium.. Heh..

Hrm, work today sucks.. Damn la. Stare at computer whole day cleaning up worksheets that look like they got big time pimple outbreak.. -.-" And oh, failed to obtain a silver for my NAPFA ytd.. Damn.. All went well, even the pull ups. Until the 2.4.. Nia ma eh.. Juz couldn't run ytd.. Ran halfway felt like going to poo also.. Shitty feeling, quite literally.. Haiz.. Shall take it again in a week or 2.. And oh, Cherating is off too.. Not my week.. BAH!!!

Dreams..

Had a couple of dreams this few nights.. All abit wierd and set me pondering what the hell I am doing in those dreams. For instance, last night I dreamt that I was back in JC.. -.-" At my age now that is, and absolutely screwing up the time table by not attending classes even though I wanted to?! Hell, it's insane.. And seeing some sucky teachers. Eww..

Planning to take Ippt tml.. Wonder if I can pass, haven't been going to the gym regularly.. Managed only once a week after I started work.. Sad.. The Club Med trip has been more or less confirmed, just that we haven't book.. Better do it fast.. I'm so looking forward to the trip! Muahaha..

Random thoughts. I hope I'll live the next two months of my life to the fullest. Haha.. Really hope that my June can be freed, to watch WC and probably spend a good hols with family, wherever it may be. Even in Malaysia is perfectly fine... =)

And oh, may I bet you a dollar each, that this year may see yet another fare increase in public transport.. -.-" They are deferring the review to August instead of May.. Which in my opinion, the elections should be over by then. Hmm, pure coincidence I swear. Haha. Yeah right.. http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/203631/1/.html

Planning on a trip to Cherating.. But can't find an elusive 4th person.. Frustrating.. Might go on a trip to Genting on Monday! Lol.. All abit impulsive decisions.. But whether can make it remains to be seen ah.. =S

21st Birthday Bash..

And so I'm an adult now!!! Whee.. But still no voting power, and with that, no Progress Package also. Damn. Haha.. But I'm a very happy MAN today.. =)

Decided to have a birthday party at home.. Heh.. Cos dad had wanted to just have dinner with a few close family members at restaurant, but I gathered that the amount of money spent will be quite alot also, so might as well throw in a bit more money, and get like 3 or 4 times more pple to celebrate together! Haha.. So last minute decided to have a party and churned out a guest list. =)

Pretty much invited my best friends from all walks of my life.. The usual suspect is always the Gang.. Needless to say, I wun leave them out in any case. Heh.. Called my NCC buddies from CHS plus Fei Meng.. And also frens from Mass Comm.. Left out JC frens cos I decided it'd be quite hard to keep them entertained cos only a couple of them and it wun be nice.. Yeah.. Sorry JY!!

People started streaming in at about 6pm.. Ziling and Fei Meng came at 5.30! Haha.. Then my poly frens came at 6 and had a hard time keeping both sets entertained.. I was fearing the worst, like if only 2 groups of frens also cannot entertain then how? But luckily things got better.. As more pple came, the different groups grew and pretty much settled among themselves and entertained themselves with jokes and food.. So I juz like run ge tai like that, entertain different pple at different corners of the house.. Haha.. Pretty much left the relatives for my family to deal with.. Heh..

Highlight was probably the cake cutting.. Everyone gathered at the dining hall to sing me birthday song. Haha.. Yay!! It was a nice nice feeling... And I truly enjoyed it.. Once in a lifetime thing, really.. The next time this might happen, haha.. Maybe when it is my 60th birthday, with my grand kids around. Haha. So, pple who haven't celebrated their 21st, do remember to enjoy that grandest minute of your life. =) Im glad everyone enjoyed the cake. Though Dil probably din have it. Bleah.. It's Mango Mousse cake! Speciality from Jacks'!! Thought would have a huge leftover of the cake, but no... Almost all gone and had to tell cousin to save a reasonable sized piece for 4th aunt who didn't come..

After the cake, guests started leaving.. And was busy standing at the door to bid them farewell. Heh.. Poly gang and the Gang stayed on to watch the video that KL had just took.. Hehe.. Sis joined in and had a good laugh with us.. Hehe..

Thoroughly enjoyed myself.. And was glad that it went well.. =) Many apologies, if I hadn't entertain you as much as you'd have liked.. But I was torn.. Haha.. Yep, think you all will understand..

Apologies to Mel!!! Who called me at about 7pm but I was damn blur from receiving guests already and just couldn't recognise her voice!! So sorrrrryy!! I owe you Ya Kun when you come back. Lol.. Sorry!!

Thanks to everyone who came and everyone who sent me well wishes.. Thank You! And thanks to my family for helping out with everything from preparation to cleaning up.. Thanks guests for making my day and gave me a day to remember for whole of my life.. Hehe..

P/S: Will post pictures and after thoughts on presents soon! Check back soon... =)

Team MCM @ Regata

Thanks boss for making sucha nice pic!

To MCM-ers seeing this but not in the pic: You should have been there! =)

Happy Birthday Mom & Dad..

Today is my parents' birthday!! Yes, not typo, it's their birthday, not anniversary, but birthday! Haha.. Yep, they share the same birthday, though one year apart.. Haha, I actually thought that all parents will have the same birthday when I was young.. lol..

Anyway, sis and I bought a hand-pouch (dunno if it's called this) for mom and a wallet for dad.. Well, we decided that mom shouldn't just have her black small sling handbag to do with. Not very nice, though she's been carrying one for as long as I remember. So time for a change. As for dad, the wallet he bought at the Penang pasar malam was fast disintegrating , so a wallet is timely and practical. Heh..

Had dinner at Changi T2 Fish and Co. Sis ordered swordfish collar.. Which she couldn't finish at all. Haha.. Gave almost half of what she was served to me and dad. Nice stuff.. My dad declared he's gonna have swordfish collar the next time he goes to Fish and Co. Haha.. We ate damn alot. Ordered Caesar salad as starters, then was our main dish. Was quite full already after eating that, but sweet-toothed mom will never be satisified without dessert, so sis ordered an ice-cream cake. Yeah.. But that was not the end. After that ah, when dad was footing the bill, my mom asked tongue-in-cheek, "got free gifts for birthday or not?" The waitress said that they normally give a scoop of ice cream.. Erm, so.. We had a scoop of ice-cream! Ok, lucky we din ask for 2. Haha.. Was so full.. Plans of invading Swensen's was abandoned..

Wish List?

Hmm, as my invitation for the birthday party goes out, more and more pple keep asking me what I want for my birthday.. Haha.. Very sian.. And my response will always be, I don't know leh.. Which is true..

Well, at least I can tell what you all not to buy, cos it's been choped. Haha.. My sis will be buying me an MP3 player. Yeah. Ziling was like, "eh! Tell your sis don't buy la.. We buy for you!" And I went.. "wa! you serious or not!!".
ZL: Yayaya!!
Me: Oh, my sis buying Zen Micro or iPod Mini leh leh, you sure or not..
ZL: Oh, okok.. I take back my words hehe..

Yeah, so one down, been wanting to get one Mp3 player for a year liao but din get down to it.. So it should be solved now.. Eh, a good hint will be to get me football stuffs. But I seriously hope not everyone give me football stuffs. Will die. Haha.. Too bad Man U new jerseys won't be out so soon, if not it's a sure bet I'd like to have one.. Hmm, but please don't anyhow get me football stuffs.. Got personal preference one ok? Haha.. Ok, hint.. I want to get a national team jersey.. But get the team and preference right. Haha.. (and i really dread to think that when I open presents, two different groups of friends give exactly the same thing. Will cry. Haha)

And oh, another booboo by gang member.. GF this time. He went like. "you want Xbox 360 not.. I buy for you." Me: Siao ah! You buy I pei4 fu2 ni3. GF: Can la, I gather all your friends all pay for it. Me: Siao, you know want person need to pay how much not.. $50 at least.. GF: No what.. Can one la, you see ah, you got friends from gang, sec sch, poly.. Add up about 25 pple.. Me: Uh huh.. GF: Ya lor, not enough pple meh? Me: you go calculate.. GF: Wa.. One person really $50 leh.. !! Me: Hahahaha... (for your info one Xbox 360 costs $700+, and on the basis not everyone will pay so much, some will incur alot more)

I think I'll become IT savvy when I enlist. Buy electronics with the allowance I have from NS. Haha..

Eh, I need to travel in May!! Damn. I don't care to where and with whom. I just wanna travel. Period.

From MINDEF with love..

A gayish looking purple letter lay on my clean table top last night. Saw it in the darkness after coming back from a night's out with poly gang. Horror of horror, saw the MINDEF logo in the darkness and I went, "Oh Shit.." Was still pretty happy when I came home, den just fell into a slumpy mood.. Dunno why leh.. Probably had set my mind on enlisting in Sep, so abit shocked..

Switched on the light thereafter and read the details.. 8th June is the day.. Day of reckoning. Haha.. So sian.. Needa call MINDEF tml though, and ask if it's the Physical Training phase or normal BMT. Cos I haven't pass my IPPT leh.. If it's PTP, den there's still hope for me to enjoy the World Cup!! Haha.. Well.. We'll see..

Been waking up early both days despite turning in late.. Went to do Qing Ming praying.. Den after that come home sleep whole afternoon. -.- What a way to spend the weekend.. Bleah..
