Days of my Life

Yes! It’s a confirm! Will be going to S.J coming Friday Night. It’ll be my virgin visit inside. The last visit there, ended with the lot of us sitting outside and calling it a day after a glass of Tiger each. What a drag! I didn’t even get to explore the inside.

What makes me even looking forward to this Friday is that Eliza be joining us. She’s now stationed in Customer Service Center. The other 2 who went there are Kenneth and Esther. The former don’t go clubbing if the next day is a work day while the latter don’t go club,

We were discussing via an Email Chat earlier. The initial plan was -> Jia Yun, Eliza and I meet up first, at Double O, to break Jia Yun’s virgin visit, and we shall down 10 shots each. However, after some thought, we decided against it. Mainly due to A) Eliza still want to look at Handsome guys in S.J for session B and B) I don’t want to end up being the first one home. I’ve this habit of getting on a cab and ending up in my bed without knowing why. I only know that Ihave to get home for bed. Lolz…

Eliza said that she had a feeling that I’ll be doing that. Do have some faith in me, okay!

3 of the Cluster B TMs be going too. Namely, Carmen, Ivy and Bernard. Call us ’suicidal’ but Carmen, Ivy and I had booked for OT at 10am the next day. I can’t say no to fun and at the same time, double pay/hour.

AND next Friday, there’s the D&D. I won’t be able to go for the dinner as I’ll be working till 1230 am. However, I’ll be there for part B. Lisa was telling me to swap shift, so that I’ll be able to go. However, upon hearing that, Carmen immediately walked to my area and called me a Traitor.

Haha… You see? Both Carmen and Bernard be on the same shift as I am. We’ll be going down after work to meet up with the others for clubbing. And so, I’d to give up on swapping the shift. Which also means that I’ll be giving up on the top 3 attractive prizes from the lucky draw. First prize is an OMEGA watch + $2000 and 3rd prize is a Macbook Air. I’m not really interested in the 2nd prize, so let’s just forget it.

The other reason to why I ditch the swapping idea is coz I’ll have to work on the 2nd of Nov. There’s going to be a gathering at Xiao Gu’s home for Glenn’s birthday celebration. I don’t really want to miss it. There’s going to be so much fun. Mahjong, Sinful Food, Cakes, Poker, KTV, catching up with cousins…

Sometime there are things in the world that’s worth giving up for

Had a three-way chat via email with Carmen and Ivy today. Initially, it’s just Carmen and me, after that I ‘pulled Ivy into the picture’.

When she first told me that she clocked almost 72 hours of OT every month, I didn’t believed it. It wasn’t till I heard from Carmen, “She has been doing it since she was still a CSO!”, that I finally down the truth with my jaw dropped.

72 hours? How is that even humanly possible in the first place. Including the standard hours that you’d signed up for initially and SADLY, required to fulfill, it’s like M1 is the 2nd home to her already. And the next shocking discovery, the gal who’s into fashion ( Mind you! She’ve got 2 LV under her name ) blah blah, don’t have a Facebook account.

Via Email she wrote that she go online only for 3 things.

1) Online Shopping

2) Online Movie/Drama

3) Online Banking? ( I think that’s the last online she wrote )

I asked her what’s the the point of shopping online? I thought the fun of shopping itself, is that you get to see-touch-try-buy. She made a valid argument by saying that there’s even more unique stuffs online. I’ll need to check with Cuiling in regards to that. That gal pal of mine is also a hardcore online shopper. She always tell me that ‘ I just bought something which I don’t really need!” ( Now what’s the name for the sickness again? ) Haha…

4 more days to Friday night! Clubbing night! I missed Eliza and Kenneth from LDS. Had been a very, i stress, VERY long time since we last clubbed. I’m suggesting Double O, because Jia Yun never been there before. Woot~

Good News~ Kylie Minogue coming to Singapore.

Bad News~ Too poor! Can’t afford to see her LIVE.

Anyway found this clip on Youtube~

I’d actually accepted Carmen’s invitation for a chilling session in Holland Village last Sunday. However. the thought of going for yet, another chilling session for 3 consecutive days in a row, ( with different group of people, of course! ) sort of turn me off. Somehow, it just feels like you are comitting sucide in a way.

I cancelled her off the in the noon and she said that I’m a 747.

… I didn’t quite get the reference. I later found out from her that 747 is actually a model of aeroplane, which in other words, she meant ‘flying aeroplane’. I told her to keep up with time and to use A380, the JUMBO Airplane.

Thankfully I didn’t go that night, coz it turned out to be a disaster. The place which they planned to go, 2am Dessert Bar, was closed and their only hope Wala Wala closed in like another hour time.

Therefore, another bonding session was planned and it was a SUCCESS~

Venu: Pump Room @ Clarke Quay

Attendance: Cluster B: Francis, Ivy, Carmen, Venus, Jia Yun, Natalie and Myself

                    Cluster C: Benny, Miki, John, Silvia, Emily and Alex

                    Corporate: Desmond

P.S. The only 3 people who’s not in the picture are Alex and Natalie. They are both busy dancing in the dancefloor. And of course, yours truly, who had sacrificed himself to take this shot~

Come to think about it, it’s kind of crazy! Francis, Carmen, Ivy, Miki, Silvia and I, finished work at 1230 am. We took a cab down there to meet with the others, straight after that.

We got ourselves intoxicated with a bottle of Barcardi, Tequila and glasses of Long Island Iced Tea. And for the first time in my life, I’d to go into the ladies to accompany gals to puke. Twice! First is Ivy. After she’s done, Carmen suddenly annouced that she’s going to do a Merlion. I followed her to the toilet, only to find Emily and Miki also puking. *roll eyes*

Initially, the plan was to ‘KO’ everyone first, with both Ivy and I remaining as the ‘last man standing’, having the last laugh. Too bad, Ivy became the fallen hero. In her case, heroine.

The Survivors~ Natalie, Jia Yun and Me. The 3 of us are what’s left of the original 5, who was posted to Call Center. Rachael didn’t make it through the training, while Jason found his calling and tendered to fulfill it.

-_-” And they taught me how to smoke. Before she ‘fall’, I asked Ivy to show my how to smoke and do the flicking thing after the last puff. Too bad! I couldn’t take the smoke in my lungs. I ended up coughing it out. wahaha. And they told me not to waste the fags. I told Ivy that we should get the contrabrands next time to expand, while she shows me the trick. Haha…

And yeah~ I found a new dancing partner. MIKI. The only 2 other people whom I had fun dancing with are Cuiling and Shirmaine. Nowadays can’t really enjoy dancing with Cuiling anymore, as she’s attached. and it’s not really nice to really, dance with her when the BF is around. And for Shirmaine, she seldom go clubbing. And can I just say AGAIN, she has a Saint James Power House Membership? What a fucking waste! Haha…

I can’t wait for the next trip there again~

After a long wait, Shirmaine and I finally MANAGED to go clubbing together. That woman says that clubbing will make you age faster and she’ll only show her face, once in a remotely blue moon. I bet if someone was to say “Clubbing helps to shed your double chin and drop the kilos!” She’ll be the first one in the queue.

Friday night at Double O, with the usual 4 of us ( again) and another gal pal of Maine’s, Angela. I’d a free pass in, given from the bash which Ming Jin had organised. A very successful one ( Good Job, Bro! ) There’s already a long queue by the time we reached. My heart kinda sank at the sight of it. I mean, who likes queuing? Thankfully, the very long queue is actually meant for those SAFRA card holder for a free entry. Those paying can join another queue.

Here’s the thing, the free pass which I’m holding onto will grant me waiver of entry fee before 10pm AND it’s already 9:58pm. I was thinking if the door bitch was to deny me entry, I will “Can I speak to your Manager?” Haha… Kidding~ I managed to get in for free.

2 Guys and A Gal~ ~

Jonah told me that it had been a long time since he last club. He also added that the shirt which he’s wearing be turning mouldy anytime now. haha~

The Guys~

The Virgo Bitch ( again )

$3 for a shot of Tequila. After saying the Hi’s with the Jonah and Cheng Jia, Angela and I proceed to the bar to make our purchase. And I ordered 10 shots of Tequila. So bloody cheap. Only $30.

Sherlyn and Patricia was there too. Cuiling and her boyfried, Weiming, joined us much later . A very very fun night. As usual, I gotten high again. Haha

Woke up around 7 am the next morning. Since my shift starts at 8am, I’d to take a cab. Running through my Inbox and I found a message from Ming Jin, ‘Want to go Double O tonight?’

-_____________________-”

… Uh-huh! I did went last night! 2 nights in a row seems fun. Haha… But still, that’s not my point. The message was sent @ around 4 am in the morning. OH MY GOD! Who will send such a message in the wee of the morning? Later Ming Yong complained that he slept at around 330am and @ around 4, his sleep was rudely interrupted by this sms. He shut off his handphone in disgust.

Initially, the plan was to meet up with Ming Yong @ Clarke Quay, then we walked over to meet MJ outside Dbl O. Somehow, it was revised to I will go to NUS to find MJ in his hostel, then hop on a cab to Buona Vista to pick MY up.

Like in most cases, both MJ and I were late. Was supposed to pick MY up by 915pm BUT the both of us was still stranded in one of the road within NUS compound, complaining about how it’s such a sad thing that even with money these days doesn’t naturally, secure you a cab.

By 916pm, DOOMSDAY arrive. My cell started ringing. MY called. As soon as I picked up, he said, “Wau Lau, where are you both! Are you both gay? Everytime late!”

Trust MJ to come out with a plan B, GET MY to hop on a cab at Bouna Vista, then come and fetch us instead. I told him if that what’s he wants, he will need to call and tell MY. I don’t want to be murdered.

The difference between Friday and Saturday night is the former is a R and B night, wheras the latter is a Retro night. I’m a versatile. Cool with both.

Ming Jin still have a supply of the free passes, I managed to get in for free again. Haha… Since it’s too early and there’s no crowd, we walked over to the street across for Bak Kut Teh. MJ never fails to surprise with that traditional mindset of his. He’s deciding whether to have dinner or not, because all he had was steamboat earlier on.

… Sound strange right? I felt that way too. Had steamboat earlier on = had dinner already. I probe further and he said, “It’s because I haven’t ate rice yet!”

… OMG! So the definition of dinner to him is equlavent to having white rice. I almost faint when he defended himself by saying, “I’m a CHINESE!”

Buddies~

And MY’s favourite drink is Gin Tonic *urghz* Both MJ and I rolled our eyes coz that’s like the worst drink ever. I go for a gay mixture, Vodka with Ribena and MJ go for Rum with Ribena. Other than that, we also ordered 10 Tequila shots.

Pool bar is is the right place to chill. There’s a live band, and for the first time in my live, I heard an Acoustic version of Daniel Powter’s ‘Bad Day’. We started the usual Finger Guessing games. And fuck! I think I had 4 shots. We rotated the forfeit in this order, A shot, A ship of Vodka with Ribena, then to Gin Tonic and finally Rum with Ribena.

As you can see, MY is rather ermm…

Lady Luck started shining on me after the tray of shots are gone. What a drag! Still, the plan to KO Ming Yong, is quite successful. Haha…

We then proceed down to O bar for R and B. Too hot! We went up to Double O to check on the crowd. It’s full of guys! Where are all the gals? and it’s not even gay night. MY immediate comment was ‘Full of ‘Bah Diao’. I had to nod my head in agreement.

Not bad! My all time favourites I heard a Rumor and Square Room was played back to back. I’m still trying to learn the synchro movement for Square Room though.

Anyway, I’ll be going again next Friday. And yar, free entry again~

Went to watch my $141 purchase last night. The 3 of us ( Maine, Cindy and I ) met up in Jurong East first. We spent close to 20 minutes, walking around, in search for Light Stick. Just as we are ‘calling it quits’, we passed by this promising road stall, which sells Fire Sparkle etc. Shirmaine quickly walked up to the lady ( or rather auntie ) standing behind the stall and asked whether does she sells Light Stick.

… The auntie just looked at Shirmaine. Shirmaine looked at us. We walked away with Maine saying, “She looked at me, like I’m an idiot!”

To our surprise, Popular do sell Light Sticks. Wow~

We hopped on the train and being the long ride to Kallang. How do we get to Singapore Indoor Stadium in Kallang? No worries! All we have to do is to ‘follow the crowd’. Haha… As you can see on the above pic, I’m holding onto a handphone pouch, made from Kangaroo’s Scrotum. For a joke, I told Maine that it smells salty.

While looking around for the North Entrance, I asked Maine whether can we just walk up to the Usher to ack them, “I’m holding onto $141 tickets, where do I go!”

She threw me a silencer and told me that ‘we are not holding to the most expensive tickets!’

… Still, we are holding on the 2nd most expensive. Just a bit of a background, Maine was the one who’s in charge of booking the tickets and of course, choosing the seats. The initial concern was that our view be blocked by the P.A system.

NOT only were our view not being blocked, we happened to be the ‘front’. The moment A-mei appeared om stage, she’s facing us . ARGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH~

I didn’t regret spending the money. IT WAS GREAT. She’s the best Live female singer alive. Not even my all time favourite, Elva, can trash her. I’m glad that both Shirmaine and Cindy insisted on buying the light sticks. Concert without them is just like clubbing without the booze.

F.Y.I She sang all her ‘household’ hits like Jie Mei, Bad Boy, Ji De…

As much as the concert is great, the ‘after-that’ can be a bitch. Hordes/Throngs of people making their way. You can’t seem to get onto the bus and every single taxi that zoomed by is either ‘On Call, or occupied.

Waiting for the cab which doesn’t seem to be coming. I told Maine to save us, by flashing herself to an oncoming car, to hitch a ride. Wahaha…

I’m currently listening to her ‘Ren Zhi’. Can you believe? the whole time I had her CD, I didn’t even listen to that song.

There was this period of time where there’s practically nothing really good to watch. Nowadays? I can even smile when I sleep. Knowing that there’s something to look forward to the next day.

Currently I watching…

1) Gossips Girls Season 2

2) Knight Riders

3) The 4 Constables

4) Heroes Season 3

5) Ugly Betty Season 3

6) ANTM 11

With that, I’m going to bed. With a SMILE on on face

Went for a swim today. Something which I haven’t been doing for quite sometime. Honestly, I’m surprised that I’m still able to hit 30′ touch and go, without panting. With work and OT to clock for the extra bucks, I’m just too lazy to travel to a pool for the swim. Therefore, I chose running instead. However, my legs kind ache from the run, which explain why the swim today. Water Therapy~

I maybe too old for toys already, BUT I went on ahead and bought 2 new naruto figurines. I just couldn’t resist in buying some of the character from my favorite Manga. Here’s a very brief history. Dai Kor ( Eldest Brother in cantonese) had a stack of Naruto VCDs, and his younger brother, Genki, sort of introduced them to me. Say 4~5 years ago? Which is during my Poly-years. On and off, I’d already heard from Zhi Hao that it’s nice, but I just didn’t get myself started.

I borrowed the whole stack of VCDs and spent the whole night watching. So happened that my brother is also interested. AND so very happen that my Maternal 2nd aunt strike 4D during the Chinese New Year period, she gave each of us an extra big Ang Paw. We dumped them all into the Manga.

Now? One of my ‘looking forward’ to a new week, is during every Saturday, a new episode would be uploaded online. And the story is just getting better and better. Once of my  favorite character is the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade. She has incredible strength and the ability to heal, a Medical-Nin.

Sounds familiar? Yup! I’m a Medic Specialist too! Just that I can’t send people flying off in one blow, and the ability to do a Genesis Regeneration on myself when I’m badly injured. Somehow, I just like characters with healing ability. I’m more of a support-people, person.

Other instances…

In Warcraft 3, my favorite character is Furion Stormrage. And yes! He can heal. His final power can heal surrounding allies.

When playing Magic Cards, I usually choose a Green/White, or a Red/White deck. I had one constructed a Cleric deck. A card with the name Beacon of Immortality which doubles my life total, and another named Ancestral Memories which allowes me to gain 2 life for each card in my Graveyards are my all time favourite. I still have this white card, ‘Exalted Angel’, a very sought after card during the Onslaught Block with me. It’s sort of a birthday present from my brother. In case you are wondering, this Angel will help you to gain life for each damage you dealt to your enemy. And what’s the name again? A bitch! Lolz

Final Fantasy 7, it’s a shame that Aeris had to die in the first Disc. Else, She’s a must have in my group of 3. Back in 1997 when I first started playing the game, her limit break, ‘Healing Wind’ totally blew me off.

Now I’m thinking whether to get another one of the figurines or not. In this way, I will have 3 out of the 9 Akatsuki Members.

I should get it~

My favorite seat in office is near the exit. Depending on which side you be coming from, it can be, at the same time, called the entrance. That’s the door where everyone dread to enter when it’s time to report for work, punching in your god-damn punch card and also the only that that everyone’s looking forward to, when it’s time to ‘get the hell out of here’.

A few days ago, my manager Lisa, dropped a bag of content (  Plastic bag from Watson ) at my area, on her way out, saying, “Kee Lin! I’m rushing for time! I ‘tong bang’ this here first and no! It’s not a bomb!”

Before I even had the chance to react, that ‘bomb’ was thrown underneath my table ( FIRE IN THE HOLE!!! ). And when I turned back to probe further, Lisa was already out of sight.

Few days later…

I saw Lisa walking towards my area with her famous mug with her name ‘LISA’ imprinted on it. I told her, “Hey Lisa, in case you have forgotten, your bomb is still with me!”

She started laughing and said, “Oh my god! I forgot about it! Never mind! Just wait for it to blow!”

-_-” That had got to be the lame-est conversation of the day. Haha.

Over coffee @ Coffee Club the other day, I’d come out with an English name. Just that I don’t know whether should I go for Special or Normal.

… I know! Bear with me! I’m a bloody Virgo and we tend to get a bit Drama Rama when it comes to decision making. Ask Shirmaine! She’s 10 times scarier then moi.

Anyway, it’s a choice between Jayren ( Special ) or Jarren ( Normal  ). My cousin, Gim Li ( No! Not that dwarf in LOTR ) asked me to go for the former. And what’s holding me back?

 Don’t even ask me !

Coz I’m a bloody Virgo~

Happy Days~
