Did someone say update? Well, say it again! Cause I'm about to do so now. :D
Woot, just to mention that I've found myself a job for the June holidays, basically to drive away boredom and "sian-ness" at home or waste my time at the Magic Shops, and also, extra cash is something thats never enough.. =)
Lets recap for the "huge events" in the past week..
6.6.05 Monday
I skipped Mrs Nathan's lesson for straight 3 times; darn it was at 8am, and i doubt that I've woke up at 8am on ANY days of the holidays, so far. Thus, she gave my mum a ring and of course, i was sorta scolded, and I was asked to attend her lessons on that day, which was at 9am, better. :P
Guess what? I walked into the classroom at 9.30am, seeing none of my buddies other than those bloody nerds I'd say. Exception for Johan and Lowell, whom probably saved my ass as there were scripts from them for me to copy. Seeing the questions on the whiteboard, followed by tons of scribbling and graphs; makes me faint. Managed to leave at 11, after handing in the assigned work I owed her for the past 4 lessons. Well, copied work, to be exact. :D
Got a call from carey, and make plans online to go to Sentosa, as everyone was boring dead. Someone took over my work, so its my first day of work leave for the past consecutive 3 working days. Thus, why not? Although very little people lah..
Wait, heh guys, enjoyed waiting for me? Bloody SMRT transport. Well, I was STUCKED on the LRT for 37 mins, exact. It was just 1 stop away, to Punggol MRT. Halfway, the LRT stopped, and minutes later the power went out. No lights, no air-con, no TV, nothing. It was really stuffy, and if there werent little gaps thru the doors here and there, we would have ran out of oxygen. This crazy SMRT guy ran on the tracks from Punggol MRT to the stranded LRT carriage. Somehow he got inside, by opening the emergency door, and restarted the system. I think he did something wrong, and all the windows of the LRT started to fog up and unfog, as you know, LRT todays have the ability to "blind" the windows as a form of privacy to local residental areas. Conclusion, I reached Harbourfront MRT at 3.45, and the meeting time with them was at 2.30; never been so late before in my entire life, afterall it wasnt my fault.. :P
Realised my first mistake, I didnt wear slippers, but my beloved Basketball shoes. Sand was indeed a irritating compound. Having shoes off, we went for the sea, and I was on my usual naughty self and throw a coconut at Marsha while she was waddling in the shallow waters. All the water splash up, bullseye!
Of course, she got her revenge with the help of Carey here and there, and I wasnt any drier than both of them. Well, I doubt Zhan Wei even let his toes touch the salt water. Darn, next time we go Sentosa, you bet we'll dump you into the sea. :[
Karen joined us halfway, she had dunno what course till 4. We then went cycling, and cycling in Sentosa was my first time and it was REALLY fun. Steep roads and straight downhills everywhere, woohoo! Best thing is.. We got lost. And thank you Carey, for bring us in a HUGE circle journey and ending up at the same spot again. I think Karen managed to choose the right path; by luck :P and I was like "yay!" when I saw the sign: Palawan Beach ----> This way
Was 30 mins late, so we had to pay extra $2.50. There goes our dinner money, so.. :(
We decided to have Instant noodles for dinner. Went to 7-11, and we bought 5 cups of Instant Noodles and 2 Big Gulp, around $11; 5 people leh, haha. First time eat at Sentosa so cheap, lol. Found a shelter, and while eating we played cards. The "hot" water we used provided by 7-11 wasnt even hot at all, I could dip my finger in and not get a roasted one. Did a couple of tricks here and there; fancy dealing 4 twos and 4 Aces to myself during a game of Daidee. Haha. But being the usual HONEST guy I am, of course I didnt continue to play on. :P
Reached Harbourfront at 9, parted with the girls as Marsha's dad was picking them up from the station, while Zhan Wei and me headed home by train. Reached home at 10.15pm, wow, what a long day. =)
Then it work work work, will the 8th of June, when its my "Leave" again. Made plans to go Magic City, but wtf..! I was already halfway there while I got the information from Edwin that Nicky sprained his back at 1.30pm; and he could hardly walk now. What the fuck..! After a long sigh, I decided to go Street Magic to see the booth for the upcoming magic competition. Plenty of wonderful stuff to buy, but the prices were.. =( So bought nothing.. Met Wan and Edwin halfway, was really a coincidence, and we paid Solomon a visit at Shaws. Took a cab there, Wan paid the meter, and.. Magic Castle was indeed one hella experience everytime I go there. Solomon slayed me again and again, effects after effects, till I was totally speechless. Practically a god with cards.
Yesterday
Woohoo, Yan Ru has agreed to swap the shifts for the 12pm - 3pm slot with me. Went shopping with mum and we bought hell lot of stuff. She took leave yesterday, as the car had to go for its monthly (i think) services. Damn, imagine shopping without a car, it was really troublesome. Had breakfast at Tiong Bahru Macdonald, then took a train to City Hall station. The Great Singapore Sales was on, and everywhere was Sales here and there. We walked from City Hall to raffles city then back then took train to Taka and walked another couple of hours. It was freaking tiring, and i still had to work at 5pm - 8pm. And I got my ATM card! Woohoo! If everything goes well, I should have another 900bucks coming in this month, from mainly 3 sources, work, sales of online games, and sale of Magic props and stuff. Cheers!
Anyway, I got 3 pair of relaxed fit long pants, 3 Polo tees, 2 tshirts, 3 pairs of addidas socks and a new pair of addidas shoes. Wootage!.. Will pay my mum maybe a couple of hundreds back when I get my paycheck. I've also have my eyes set on Nokia 7270, but the price difference it kinda huge between 6170. Sighs, why is everything about money here money there.. lol.
And hell, that TV show, LOST was really nice. Creepy and exciting. Looks like there's something to do every Thursday night from now on.
And Today.. you know why i decided to blog? Because.. I woke up at 8.30am and there was suppose to be tuition at 9. And guess what, my teacher forgot to come! Hahaha..! So I've got plenty of time; sian-ness to be exact, till 11am, till i leave for work. Hehe.
I'll be leaving town tml, going to Malaysia to.. guess what? Fishing trip again. =) Kelong; they call it, will leave at 5am on the 11th, and back on 12th at late evening. Wish me luck upon huge catchs and yes, will bring back photos and post them up; with demands. :P
Take care, people.
How Foolish I was.
