met up with my jc classmates on thursday. it was all good fun man! its rare that the clique's complete, with one studying overseas, ns commitments and stuff. went to china square central? seriously man. that place is damn quiet, no one goes there! so i'd highly recommend it. but of course, not too many please. that place's gonna lose its appeal if its too crowded and noisy. its like 1/100 of orchard's crowd, seriously.

anyway! had so much fun. dinner at pizza hut. caught up with one another, normal stuff. took pics. took crazy pics! even went into this shop [it was closed but they didnt have those metal grill thingys] and made it like our own! posed like we were customers, waiters and whatever. took formal pics. took candid pics, tho i think we still look better in formal ones. played card games. ahhh! so fun! love them. ;)

met up a friend on friday after work. he decided to get a cock ring for his friend. so in all curiosity, i tagged along. went to this shop which sells everything gay. gosh. it felt so so wrong lah! haha.

christmas yesterday was spent at angel's place [the evening part lah] with a few friends. it was a christmas get together for her extended family, her parents silver anniversary and her bday party too. had wonderfully delicious indian food. and played games with her whole family. can you imagine? havoc of the year lah! but it was fun.

nokia came up with their l'amour collection. i am so gonna get the 7370 lah! so so pretty. and i love the colour. [i have edna to thank for introducing me to that phone like a month or two back, tho i thought it was ugly then cuz i didnt see the coffee brown one]. this shop at lot1's selling it [without line] for $548 when the actual price is $678! omg. i just enquired. i only have to pay $130 if i'm gonna extend my contract! i'd have gotten it just now, had my mom return me the money she owes me. grr. nvm. patience, patience!

told my mom about my plans to go to bangkok for a short trip. and she said she'd pay for my air ticket! yayness man. i wouldnt need to save so much then. double yayness! so cha, tz and ash, when are we gonna book our flights?!

this entry seems like an overly happy entry. haha. but wth. 79 more days to 150306! 60 more days to clearing leave [230206] and 44 more working days! triple yayness? ;)

it's only 6 days after payday and i'm officially broke. like seriously. 6 bucks in my account, 9 bucks in my wallet. awesome. think i gotta dip into my foreign reserves. haha. the causes? lunch buffet @ straits kitchen last saturday [which was deliciously and awesomely filling], some pieces of cloth for next year's hari raya baju [i know it's damn early! haha] and best of all, i signed up for french at alliance francaise.

went for their placement test yesterday to like see which level suits me best? holy lord. i didnt study much. and the test paper was totally in french! i couldnt understand 60% of the paper lah. so was guessing by looking at the sentence structure whenever possible. otherwise it'd just be tikam tikam. after which was the interview. the french lady was like "oh, u did better for the intermediate level questions than the basic ones" lah. power anot? so she started talking french. questions which i could understand, i replied in french. questions to which i hadnt any idea what they were about, i just replied "je ne sais pa" [i dunno]. hah. and she recommended me to join the second module [out of 6 for beginners!]. just as well. i can join my friend. the fees alone cost me $280, and their textbook costs $50! so it was $330 gone in a matter of 5 mins. mommy, help!

but since it's for the betterment of my employability, it's okay. and i gotta start revising my french often. do the exercises and stuff. it's time i get back to study mode since i'm ording in NINETY days time! woohoooo!

oh. did i tell you? i got into some shit lah. awaiting punishment now. argh. and i thought my nsf life would be clean of extras and whatnot. i hope they keep delaying and by then, they'd have forgotten about it. work still sucks, what's new? he's still not doing his job, i'm doing it for him. fucker. i need a break. =(

the past 2 weeks have been good. didn't have to wear green, slept as much as i wanted to without worrying, heck care-d work matters. nice.

kl [with mom, bro, adit and his family] was even nicer. good food. good shopping! err, wait. did i say good shopping? sigh. surfing brands tees there are like super expensive. like about sgd50 when you can get them for at most 40 here? and the surfer berms there cost sgd100! i can get a pair of levis with that man! got myself a discounted tee. and my 4th pair of pumas which i so so love. now i've got green shoes! haha. niceeee.

oh yeah. i kinda spoilt my cousin's ipod. duh, apple products. so i was hoping that'd be a good excuse for my mom to get me the ipod video to replace his ipod while i wait for apple to replace his which i will use as mine. but alas, they replaced it today, there and then. oh yeah. my ipod's worth 60 bucks?! like what the fuck! 1g and 2g ipods are worth much more than mine? reason being they're of higher demand. and why is the 4g ipod worth 200 then? bloody hell! 60 bucks?!! i was thinking twice since i 'spoilt' my cousin's ipod. now it's been upped to thrice. freak.

i need another break. in the primary stages of planning one, which i hope will really realise. haha. can't wait.

work beckons. i don't wanna go back to camp tomorrow! sigh.
