party @ velvet
the EM guys brought us out for dinner at some tiong bahru place. the food was good, but it wasn't like fantastic. i guess it was just exotic and expensive. had like janpanese hairy crab, japanese clams that were huge, scallop, frog legs... basically it wasn't the normal zhi cha store. it actually had alot of weird seafood. anyway, the bill came up to $571+. wtf?! fine, there were 13 of us, but still... i wasn't like really full, but i guess it was the quality of the food we ate lar. hum... but it was good.
proceeded on to velvet. winnie from icap footed the bill the whole night. guess that's what good abt it eh? brokers always pay.
velvet was alright only. it was really boring if u ask me. jeff sms me in the afternoon saying that he wld prob come down with alex.
"are you sure you don't want to come?"
"you know i'm always ready to come."
"is that a challenge? we'll see abt that."
how nice.
but he didn't come in the end, and i spent the better half of the time waiting for him. i didn't drink that night cos i was on antibiotics. velvet really looks different when sober. u really take note of how people behave when they're high/drunk and it's weird.
jeanna was there and i called vishal to come immediately. he came and shawn and i tried to be cupid to get some action going, but oh well, da man was shy. oh well... haha...
he can dance pretty well and i had a bit of a groove going on with him. it was pretty cool. he's was gd. haha... he leaned over and said, "so white boys really can't dance," i looked at thomas and yea. white boys can't dance! haha...
jeanne started pulling me to her side to dance with her and all... gave vishal a fest for the eyes! haha... it's not like the way jing and i dance, but it was alright lar. hum... jing and i haven't danced in a while man. shit, we haven't seen each other since she came back! damn it.
then there was a fight.
it was the first flight i ever saw. it was pretty huge. so much so that a table came crashing down on jeanna and i and we were wet from the drinks, and all around was shattered glass. i stepped on a piece of glass but i guess that's ok.
i left early. it was boring. i went in and out lots of time to get people. and it was really boring. maybe i really needed to drink to enjoy myself... hum... and if someone else was there hum...

the aftermath
sat went for tim sum @ lai gardens. alright lar... it wasn't that good. really! i think the tung lok one is so much better! really! oh well... nmind i guess... bought marcus lunch cos he was leaving for aussie ready. idiot didn't want to tell me his flight details. good also lar i guess, otherwise i wld really have to go down.
church. hum... well, serene made me feel weird. went early to talk to her, but she totally ignored me, guess she was busy with the flags and stuff. but still, i told her that i was going to meet her. fine. there goes it. i'm not telling her anything.
altercall. i shed a tear. i repented yes, and i know i won't do it again. i won't.
had dinner @ tony romas with family. bought them dinner. oh well. i seem to be the one paying and paying. damn it. but at least everyone's happy.
talked to angie at night. and i really fell asleep while she was talking! so bad right! but she said something that really struck me.
"you're a very guarded person, very strong willed. u build walls around to prevent people from hurting u. and now, God is putting u through this to tear down your walls. but u're building a thicker layer. soon, u'll not be able to feel anything."
hum. i'm still reflecting on that.

a lazy sunday
skipped SOL. just didn't want to go. went to have lunch with the family. but it sucked.

spent the rest of the time being an ahmad fetching everyone around! grr...
