the mind no more. it's pitstop?

a weekend is too wasted if i were to rot at home sooo... end up havin a v last min plan to go either the mind cafe &/or the ming2 ge1 can1 ting1
so met up at dhoby ghaut at 3 (i was late.. but anyway erik's stil abit later.. hahaa.. met up wif him at khatib then went dwn together.. )... n to tk's own horror that he's on time.. =S and to my horror that js's darn earli n accordin to lj he din bring his hp... pengz. (the rest of the guys all said how can anyone in this era stil forget their hps.. )

so we met up wif lj at the busstop near the mind cafe but there's events going on.. so no space.. and we ended up at pitstop cafe after tryin to get the fone no. fr zl for settlers as tis place is opened by his fren.. like wat erik's OD said.. its a v cozy place.. tho a bit small.. but cuz no ppl.. we hav the whole place to ourselves.. n thus of cuz better service too =p

the food's great there.. collection of games r quite comprehensive too.. but end up we onli played 2 long games.. ticket to ride and shadows of camelot... the former played before wif erik n lj. but tis time end up is js win... =s then the shados of camelot's a rather more tedious game... nid tok n discuss alot.. but we end up discussin too much (abit like cheatin u noe? hahaa) ya.. but was in a rush to finish the game anyway..

after that we headed to safra town club to onli found out the ark isn't open (another ming2 ge1 cafe) so went marina sq... but decided it was not worth it cuz it's quite late liao (like sit for not more than 1 hr then muz leave le)... so that place will probably be the nxt outin place bah.. i tink? after tt went bk to get drinks n rot b4 going home~

who's the most jiao3 hua2 person of the day? ---> lj! cuz.. she was literally slippin once almost every 1 hr.. hahaa... lucky she can hold on to js.. but was tinkin wld be quite funny if both of them slipped together.. (i tink i snd abit bad.. hahaa.. whoops =X)

definition

sometimes, i always wonder why things are defined this way, that way... and sometimes, i wonder how do i actually define them myself...

and.. how do i define myself?

anyway, with the exposure to more ppl in recent times... i think i probably found out more abt myself as i found out abt others... which i guess is a good thing.. n probably made mi even more thankful about certain matters.

then again, how do others define me? how do they define things?

probably what i hold of great importance is worthless in their eyes... just because everyone's definitions can be so different... tink it kinda creeps mi to tink abt it too...

so how do u define happiness? (as i asked u this, i asked myself, currently tho still not sure of the answer.. or shld i say... i'm not as sure of the ans as i was before.. =s)

bbQ~

a last round of informing on the venue and timing for those whose supposed to turn up. really had to apologise for the last min informing... argh... sry sry!

hmmm.. end up meeting polar bear at white sands at ard 145pm and went to have lunch at cavana... (he say lemme choose cuz he dun wan choose.. but end up he say he prefer swensens. -_-)... that's why i always wan to leave decision making to guys.. else it'll just turn out this way! =S but it's true.. cavana's food nt reallie great.. anyway, polar bear's coughing like mad... really think he shld go drink some herbal tea or wat... haiz.

after lunch went ntuc to buy food... dun reallie noe wat to buy and how many to buy... he keep saying take watever i wan... but i'm not the only one eating wor!
so end up somehow we keep suaning each other but it was not for long then huishan joined us making it 2 vs 1... wahahaa.. =x (was thinkin now if we overdid it cuz he seemed to cough even more...) he keep saying next time cannot ask 2 of us to pei him shop, haha...

so shoppin is done after a while n we headed dwn to downtown east by cab... but the cabbie dropped us at amara there... so end up walkin abit... (n only now i realised polar bear's nt v good at navigation... n hence more suaning =x keke) then they were saying if fred got straight As for his results then he haf to treat everyone there to US trip.. (haaa poor fred... he always kenna tis kind of stuff it seems.. but i reallie wonder if he will get straight As tis time =p)

we headed to the pit..(ended up i leading the way. haha) but the sky decided to drizzle n we brot everything back.. to downtown east there. so instead we went to collect the rest of the food from the caterer who parked at the carpark opp side of downtown east. so qiao! actually saw peixuan there.. hahaa.. learnt tt she havin bbq wif her sec sch frens or perhaps, even a chalet bah.. seems like they ain't carrying much. eh? then shldn't meiyee be there?

then we waited for mingwei to come, he drove there, but the car was kinda rendered useless when polar bear's tinkin of using it to transport the food cuz the car can't go any much further in then where we were waiting anyway... but anyway, 2 extra hands~ better than nothing. so as we wait... the weather threatened to pour.. but so glad it din.. the wind scattered n blew away the black clouds =) mingwei arrived after a while and we carried everything back there... drinks r reallie heavy sia.. then i got scratched by the lousy wire gauss after it poked mw and i took it from him. now it looks like cat scratch. haha
then cuz polarbear n mw went back to buy more charcoal.. while mi n hs chatted abit n gettin bitten by the whole lots of ants there.. reallie alot.. the whole colony... then i started taking out the charcoal to put it into formation... then once they reach, i started the fire... those charcoal r reallie much better! easier to start actually.. dunno last time who say harder. haa

those that went got...
Han Qiang n Serene, their fren zhiwan n allen, Yng Yng, Qian Yi, Merina, Christina, Sally and Annie; Desmond, Roner, Shan jun, mervin; Zhiqian, Huishan, Mingwei, Junxiong, Weiting and his friend, Fred, + polar bear n mi of cuz..

after the 4 of us there, the next grp who came is fred they all, those who went back help the 'open hse' for nus.. then they processed the corn (funny thing is sj ask mi wat to do wif the "embedded corn" cuz it is nt peeled.. -_-) and wrapped it up wif aluminium foil then stare at it... which i concluded they're tryin to cook it lidat..... esp sia...

after that think the nxt who came is desmond i tink.. then hq they all... junxiong came later.. then annie they all n last is chris n merina (2 of them went for like 5 hrs of ktv together.. 2 of them.. they sang shan hu hai like dunno how many times n so on.. siao le. haha)

so.. dunno why end up i'm the "bbq expert" there? it's weird cuz i dun go bbq often.. juz that it's easier to start fire tis time round i tot? then tink bcuz i noe most ppl there so was quite fun~ (n hot also.. ahhh the pit's so hot! i fan myself more than i fan the charcoal... hahaa) so glad for those who came to help out.. n thx mw for entertaining wif his lame suggestions... =_= the food was not bad too.. tho end up still abit too much.. n we gav them to those at the nxt pit.. then charcoal the good ones we shld buy one more box well, water nt enuff =x (always as it seems) and we forgot abt satay sticks. =s and next time never order fried rice fr them le.. so dry..

yup.. so the whole thing went on till ard 1020 lidat.. then we cleared up n left... most of the stuff got polar bear or mw to bring home (since he drove =X)... and mi n annie took mw's car to tampines while zq n roner took it to his hse.. onli realised that roner live like the opp blk fr mw o_o so close. haa (n he also onli found out ydae -_-) ... but the amusing thing is... mw forgot the way back fr costa sands to tampines =x end up making one round before we got there and mi n annie reallie end up bumping into desmond who also went tampines to take 969 but he left wif fred they all who walked to pasir ris station. like annie said.. he even got time to go buy bread before catchin the bus! haa =S

tt's it for now. hahaa.. i wonder if nxt time polar bear stil wanna org or not.. mw say "next time not go restaurant le meh?" haa

stayover~~

an impromptu suggestion by lj on thurs (cuz the poor girl have no place to slp at her hse on fri to due to the big crowd that will be at her house) quite timely though, i juz got my hands on the Hoodwinked! dvd and was feeling rather keen at sharing with someone =p

it was a nice day at work on fri. was so free that i decided to express to kh so that he'll arrange something else for me to do~ haa (you must be thinking i'm nuts, but i'm worried i got nothing to write for the internship report.) had an nice lunch... more like fun lunch with some of my colleagues and a fren of theirs... well, was joking through lunch with some rather interesting happenings... as for the topics over lunch... mostly surrounded around that foreign fren's country vs spore, da vinci code movie etc.. and some rather cenesored ones... *ahem* i contributed nothing to those topics except some sniggers and i was labeled malicious... =s
after that was more slacking.. and got chased off to the other side of the office cuz my boss's having a fone conference (else i wld hav heard it all! lol)

headed home ard 645pm. found smelly toufu at the pasar malam (yeah at khatib again...) the stall's right beside the durian stall somemore! but one thing i realised, i can't smell any smelly toufu infront of the durian stall! so is the durian supposedly "smellier"?
smelly toufu is smelly of cuz... but it's true that when u eat it's quite nice... (of cuz if u sniff too long it's still smelly. hahaa.. takes abit of endurance wif the smell to get it to reach ur mouth. keke)

supposed to meet up wif lj at ard 1030pm at macs near fajar lrt but she came ard near 11? (was the bus's fault) anyway, reach xq's hse n ended up watchin the remaining last ep of amazing race(was quite sad for the guys who got 2nd... cuz they were leading all the way... but unluckily.. the flights are always so late that those at the back caught up!) then we went on to Hoodwinked =p n after tt was some ghost show on tv.. while xq showed us tis 'Hard Gay'? clip from japan... -_-

en 3 of was chattin wif erik online n end up on the fone.. til 4am. O_O come to tink of it... half the stuff we said r simply crap. hahaa =S

slept for ard 4 hrs.. then went for breakfast n home~! but i din go catch back on my slp cuz the rest of the day continues fr here =X

then tis morning got tis lady called Karen come.. tink the co. took up another small proj... then kh wans mi to go help (so i'll be exposed to pre-production process instead of juz post production which is wat i'm mainly doing now..) i'm fine wif it.. but they say the project v rushed.. so juz makes mi wonder if i'll be dead bz in future (oh no.. stil got alumni prac wor o_o)
anyway, kh's one of the... higher 'authorities' haa ard the co. i guess... tho he doesn't sit upstairs wif n and a (my sup.. and today got someone called the co. lookin for him... pronounced his name in a super hilarious way... we all broke out laffin hearing it.. keke)
then had lunch wif my colleagues.. those ppl in the design team r reallie funny... so laffed throughout lunch (after eatin it that is) n sat there for wat it seems like a rather long time.. then went back n cont work... but tis time got more work.. so somehow end up OTing til quite late... =( hope weds wun lidat... was super hungry.. but i guess i kinda forget abt it when they started playin some 3D animation.. Hoodwink i tink.. on the dvd player. hahaa =X

little updates

[mood | thankful Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting]

have been to internship for four days liao... still quite ok now.. except the cranky computers there.. colleagues are all rather nice (and interesting in their own ways reallie.. haha)

yup.. so i guess i'll add more abt the internship after a longer period bah...

ydae met up wif xh, js n xq for dinner at subway before ajco concert... had to say that subway's sandwich is reallie healthy! so many vegeS!! but a tad ex.. if onli it's cheaper... n... shorter... 6 inch is a tad too much... if onli it's like 4 inch? yup.. headed dwn to the concert only to see the horrendous queue at the entrance to the theatre.. (but also becuz of the horrendous queue which we can no longer make out where is the end of the queue... )so end up we juz cut queue in =X sry to those who queued so long.. =S
i prefer the 1st half of the concert... the 2nd half is simply not my taste. oh well *shrugs*
and after tt went for supper at maxwell... (funny thing is during work time i lunch keep going there to buy... i stil go suggest that place -_-) ya.. nvm... then went home that time bump into bh, zeyi, wif yanli they all n a cello jnr.. her.. shuming issit? huihan's batch de. but end up zeyi n yanli tt gang (haa i lazy) took cab home... so left bh n shuming.. who dropped off at amk.
keep tryin to convince bh to come back for alumni but like darn hard... grr

anyway, end up tis mornin cldn't wake up to go joggin (actualli i did wake up.. cuz my mom suddenli come ask mi if i got work or not... onli realised later she probably asked becuz my alarm went off... n she switched it off -_-) diao... ah.. nvm..

五个人

got tis from tk n lj's blog... tho i remember i saw it smwhere before.. issit xq's blog? anyway.. feel like doing it.. hehee... feel like bending the rules tho... can i write more? =X

The rules:
-write something about 5 different people.
-you CANNOT say who they are.
-if someone asks which is about them, you CANNOT tell.
-it might be you, it might not be.
-in no particular order.

1. this person i want him to be my blood brother most... but sadly he isn't quite one... he's v funny, never fail to make mi laff... despite being a very normal person, he has definately influenced mi n my life in many little ways... haa... hope he'll slog out a chun1 tian1 n quickly find a gf =p

2. this person made mi realised that probably what i thought is love is actually not, who i thought is a close fren is actually not, who i thought will be important in my life is actually not... and... though i tink tis person's presence (a veri think presence) is no longer needed... i'm thankful for the lessons learnt frm tis person

3. this person is a good fren of mine... n one of my closest fren... learnt lots too from tis person... definately had loads of fun crappin, arguing yadda yadda... of cuz.... it only proves that ppl of opp gender can definately remain as great frens =) (dotx...)

4. tis person... simply disappeared from my life juz like tis (no...that person still alive somewhere on earth...) used to be quite a close fren during pri sch days.. even until earli sec sch days we're the only ones of the schbus khaki left... but end up... tis person suddenli as if memory erased... no longer register mi as someone she noe liao... leaving mi totally.. dumbfounded.... till today.. i still can't help wondering why... did i do smthing wrong?

5. tis person... is someone who i can tok to lots face to face yet on the net always like dunno wat to say to tis person...a close fren too... weird huh.. haa.. tis person also quite weird... haa... tho understood that his childhood isn't anymore happier than mine's... but he like tie too much knots for himself to handle... glad he's untie-in some but hope he can untie all bah... he definately look more cheerful nowadays... n he definately look better being cheerful~ diaoz

(ok.. bending the rule.. i wanna say more! raWR!!)

6. tis person... is probably the 1st one i quarrelled wif before even noeing tis person.. dunno why he/she pick on mi for no reason.. (then again mebbe not pick.. but back then it's reallie the 1st time i saw tis kinda person i tot) haa.. but bu4 cao3 bu4 xiang1 shi4.. haa... eventually still frens.. stil got keep contact... n well, can say tis person changed quite abit bah... dunno if the word matured is suitable.. but shld be for the better.. hehee~ now tis person occasionally started smsin mi "self invented" quotes.. tho i wonder if there's alreadi some gu3 ren2 that said smthin similar.. hahaa

7. someone i used to be? worried for.. now no nid worry le (i tink)... haa.. cuz that person "grow up" liao... lol actualli... ya.. hope can grow up more tho... a person that lacks certain ctrl.. =p

8. someone that help mi lots lots lots lots... yet always say never help much... tis person n frens v v v lihai... n v v v nice n helpful.... dunno how i can make it thru my uni life if i dunno u!!! ahhhh... my en1 ren1.... gah.. pengz.. XD.. owe tis person tons of tuna...

9. tis someone i dun noe as long as all those mentioned above... but has been a great fren n listener till now.... honto ni arigatou!!!!!~~!!! a fellow jap speaker.. (tho now lvl higher than mi liao).. but stil like to "speak" jap with tis someone.. hahaa =) so glad to hav tis fren =p

10. tis fren of mine is truely cute in his/her own ways... frank n daring at certain things.. yet smtimes juz v niu niu nie nie lidat de.. hahaa... a walking oxymoron!!! whoops.. dun kill mi... but tis fren certainly made life much more interesting... =p may u quickly find someone soon.. hahaha

okie.. tink i end here... nid go bathe...=s

[mood | awake Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting]

the day before (sunday)... reallie decided that i shldn't juz stay at home n keep watchin dcj le.. haahaa.. somehow managed to get lj n erik out fer shoppin trip? on monday (which is labour day). our aim is to make sure lj spend her remaining 30bucks worth of wisma voucher tt we got fer her bdae previously. haa... en we also spend hours on the fone wif hl crappin till weeee hours.. (kenna nagged by my mom last nite for that -_-)

anyway, monday morning end up to be another round of dcj-ing cuz my modem suddenli can't work O_O... i opened it up... then after meddlin wif it for sometime.. i suddenli concluded cld be my pc's usb drive for some reason din initialise... haa. so restarted the comp n it's fine.. but then i alreadi unconnected everything.. n dcj's playin.. haaa.. so end up i switch off my comp n went to conc on the latter. XD had a hard time peeling myself off the tv.... n i wasn't late fer da appointment (supposedly 1330hrs @ orchard).. not like mr. erik who's late by a whoppin 20mins. =p but was glad i wasn't late cuz lj was earli.. haa.. the poor gal muz be mobbed by the hoards of ppl coming out fr the station... it's a public holz.... the place is like totally packed... as bad as a sunday.. or issit worsE? o_O

we headed to popular to take a look at some stuff... which after tt annie called n i hafta explain to her some programmin stuff.. ahhh sry lj! after tt we met up wif erik n left for.... food republic... (i was quite hungry after watchin a whole mornin of dcj... ahh the food!) end up having dao1 xiao1 mian4... for 5bucks, but it's a huge bowl... couldn't quite stand up after that le... =S after a v v full lunch... we started the shoppin... went almost every shop in wisma i tink... topshop's having some weird season of retro clothes.. when i mean retro.. it's reallie retro... it's almost all polka dots n checkers (i thought i saw this table cloth like dress there and of cuz the all famous.. itsy bitsy tiny weeny yellow polka dot bikini).. ya.. all looks weird and i've assured myself i got no clothes to buy tis season. hahaaa XD
saw many other clothes fr other shops... n wif mi n lj going abit crazy here n there.. haa... nearly drove erik to exasperation (nah.. juz exaggerating) but we did think of puttin a nice butterfly hair pin on him n some spag strap top. XD
finally we all got tired n decided to go get some drink... settled at yoshinoya... got our drinks.. n started snappin fotos of each other for some unknown reason... ppl ard us muz be tinkin that we're mad.. ha!
n after a unanimous decision by erik n xq(who is wif sharon @ tt time) keke... dinner is decided to be at carl's jr. so we headed dwn... after learning that sharon n xq actually alreadi reached suntec (was... shocked... cuz we din tink we sat at yoshi fer that long)... but end up it's rainin n onli lj had the brolly.. so 3 of us tried to squeeze under the brolly... was tinkin the sight will b quite a joke.. haa.. thankgoodness it isn't raining elephants... but the bus (no.14) sure took long enuff to come... n there's so many ppl at the bus stop that i hafta strain my neck to see any approaching bus.. (can't tiptoe since i'm on heels alreadi)... ya... so much so for the chinese phrase.. wait till neck grow long le.. haa
as expected.. when we reach xq will be complainin that we took so long... eh.. no.. she's alreadi too tired fr the complainin to sharon that we took so long.. hahaa... anyway, tis time i had this.. sourdough bacon burger? it's breadlike.. haa... quite nice albeit the slight oilyness.. (seems like the bread is buttered.. haa) then xq's one is low carb.... i.e. wrapped in a cabbage instead... so upon first sight.. it seems like she sank her teeth into a whole bunch of cabbage raw... O_O the cabbage vampire?
after a filling (abit too filling) dinner... we made our way dwn to chijmes... wif mi being the freeloader.. wahahaa XD (cuz actually only 4 of them shared the martini passcard... i tagged along.. somehow =X) eh.... saw tis super huge Milo event going on in suntec wif tons of ppl moving ard wif a tin of Milo in their hands.. haaa... dunno why Milo needs to do this... aren't they popular enuff alreadi?
we reach chijmes at ard 9.... n sadly 3 of the martinis are not avail... as for the rest... can refer to xq's blog.. oops.. paiseh.. i lazy.. hahaa..
