haha... it's always good to go into the new year.. cuz that's really evidence of you staying alive. haha...
the last hours of 2003 was a very.. .bizarre one.. haha.. my original plan was to sleep through to the new year... but i ended up sleeping at 9am in the morning since i only reached home at 8+!
i worked til 12.30pm.. with complimentary nasi lemak from my boss.. don't ask me why it's nasi lemak.. i haven't figured it out yet... but it was pretty nice... except that the chili looked like it doesn't cost a cent.. the fish was only like.. half the size of that enormous amount of chili. yikes. but work was pretty slack la.. considering that EVERYONE is a holiday mood liew... who cares man.. everyone was talking to everyone.. something that irene, jingxian and i do EVERY single day. muah ha ha ha ha.
after that .. i went home to sleep... well.. i was tooooooo tired for anything else... had wanted to go giordano.. buy some clothes before the GSt hike.. but i gave up.. the idea of succumbing to my dear bed and my pillow is just too appealing. haha... thus i went home.. and slept.. .or a full 3 hours.. before heading to the cinema fo r julia robert's mona lisa smile... the show was a little slow.. but i like julia roberts.. haha...
well..after that i went for supper with my sister.. when my co senior huiling called... asking me if i wanna join her for a countdown esplanade.. and thus a journey to look for dai da, joyce and her, all my nusco frens, at the marina square games arcade took place.. argh.. let's just say it took countless phone calls and searching to find them... but it was quite a bad time.. it seemed that when i rang up dai da, i just walked past the daytona racing stations... cuz he heard from my call the same sounds exactly from his game.. so he turned around but didn't see.. i walked away already i guess.. then he crashed his car.. oops.. paiseh.. haha.. moral of the story? NEVER arrange to meet friends at a game arcade. you'll NEVER HEAR FIND ONE ANOTHER.
we were playing games... Pop 'N' Dance... when i was looking at the E-zone electronic credit counter... and realized.. it was 12.03am. i turned around and screamed... "We missed the countdown!" ... huiling and joyce was like... oops. we totally defeated our purpose of meeting in the first place. haha.. up til now.. i still can't quite believe that i went into the new year like that. argh.
after games... we went for a round of pool.. man.. i only remember the last time i played pool was when i watched american sweethearts with junming, chuanz, wanz and nez.. that must be like more than one and a half years ago! haha... and huiling was such an expert in it.. andrew as well.. i pitted my skills against dai da and lost by a slight margin! hmph.. but well.. i'm glad i've picked it up again.. oh dear.. yet another distraction from my studies! haha...
we went to the esplanade.. sat in the middle of nowhere after pool and started talking... so many things... haha.. i can't remember most of it now.. too much details.. too much things...andrew had to leave for church service.. and the rest of us made our way to the mac restaurant at marina square at 7 in the morning... phew.. by the time we were there.. all of us were pretty washed out.. noticeably huiling and dai da.. one can't keep her eyes open.. the other can't feel a thing.. not even the burning hot mcmuffin... until minutes later. haha..
i was pretty awake. THEN. but when i got home. i was like... OH DEAR. and i dropped dead.. waking up only at 11 plus.. when my father called home to tell me that he was stuck in the lift with my mum.. i had to rush downstairs.. call up the life servicing people.. and float back to sleep again.. waking up only at 3.00pm. haha...
and there u have it. the most exciting, unbelievable... crossover to 2004. haha.. i'm glad that i've made a few better friends with those nusco mates of mine in the process.. and picking up my pool skills again. you know.. i really think i look rather cool while doing pool.
happy new year!
