Another drinking session

Okie before I begin my story, I'll just share some photos I took earlier with my hp, it was taken in the evening at my carpark. Nothing spectacular, just think that the sky looks pretty nice....

Well well, remember the last time I think I did say that I was very excited about going drinking, because I haven't really drank for quite some time... well after that session, I've been going drinking every week... sometimes I just amaze myself with the things I do. So for the 4th week this month (ie I went to the pub every week in this month), we went to pool junction again. Actually this round was initiated by kh, think he was bent on revenge this week, hahahaha.
Well this time we ordered something different --- Smirnoff vodka. Usually we would order 1 black lable. It was a good change, for one it looks pretty cool + the mixer was ribena... taste not bad too.

So when kh arrived, we started to play our 5 games again... of course since kh was here on revenge, we would have expected him to prepare himself and train up at home before coming... haiz, in the end still lose... But we learnt new games last night, one of them was 1-2-3 point and another was a dice stacking game. So thats another 2 to our repertoire. Also its been a long time since I drank this much (I wasn't driving, so I could let go a bit, haha)... okok thats all for now, gotta get back to work... sianz

CY's Birthday

For CY's birthday we went for old school, so I booked a table at Dempsey's House, Camp, Barracks. Pretty cool place, its a 3-in-1 concept of restaurant/cafe, bar and spa all under one roof + the waiters and waitress are all dressed in school uniform. Sitting by the lush greenery, with some wind blowing through ya hair, and occasional mosquitoes bites here and there, its just gives a tranquil feel to it ... And of course, being my 1st time at dempsey, I got quite lost inside... drove to 3 dead ends, some private houses and one huge mansion that looks haunted... hahaha... so i like drove around dempsey for 2-3 rounds before I found the place... But I must say the search was quite worth it, the night scenery was pretty happening... there were lots and lots and lots of people there.... and quite a lot of them were just as lost as I was... haha, remember cy went to look for xmm but couldn't find her so he went to ask someone on the road and the reply he got was, "emm actually I'm also lost..." -thiao-

This is the liquor menu... pretty cool rite, I really like the box thingy....

But the best part is, after we settled down we decided to change venue to pool junction instead... So off we went (without ordering anything: and CY say that if we pai sei, he can be the last person to leave, and in the end he walked the fastest) to pool junction. We ordered our drinks and the fun began... Of course we can't have a birthday bash without a cake rite... So I went to get a cake on xmm's orders. She specifically told me to get a pandan cake + whip cream.

Xmm got her whole leg covered with cream, it looks as if she was shaving her legs. Shy also got quite a bit of cream on her pants... So after the cake smashing exercise, we had to help clean up the place (because it was quite a mess after that...).

After the cake, it was time to drink. We played the five games (Big fish small fish, 007 bang, sha, 7 up, frog), and our main target was of course ------ CY, hahaha. We really tried to aim him for all the games, even the boss of the pub was kind enuff to help offer him a house special (its a 75% alcohol drink), plus everytime he said something I'll try to counter with a ,"are you trying to argue" line.... But in the end he was saved by our self-destruct king ---- kh ..... Luckily Kelly was there to look after him, and of course to drive him home...


Here's a group photo of everyone when we were still very sober.... Well we had great fun that nite... it has been quite a while since we managed to get so many of our classmates together on an 'outing'... Hope for more to come!

Look what I've found...

Hahaha... was on my way to the carpark yesterday to get my car (duh!)... well, found some interesting stuff on my way up the stairs...





Condoms at stairway


Yup, condoms.... hahaha... obviously some people had been naughty the night before.





Pomolo lanterns made by cy's mum

The night before was the mooncake festival, and I was feeling a little bad for not being at home... was planning to be at my grandma's for dinner, but of course since I'm writing this, I didn't make it for dinner. In fact I went to JB in the afternoon with cy, Tammy and Sean. Then in the evening we went to cy's place for mahjong... hmmm actually did I already post something about this already?!?!... Nevermind, can always write again... well anyway, yup so the mj session dragged all the way till 1am (Jo and Yvonne joined us at about 9+), so we more or less got through the mooncake festival at cy's place.

Okie back to yesterday, other than the condoms, well I went ikea to study, great place, got free refills for coffee and tea too... hahaha (cheapo)... and met up with imran after that. He asked me to break fast with him. So once the time arrived, the 1st thing he bought was a ------- hotdog. After that we went over to some restaurant (according to him), that was really just a normal malay coffee shop... yup quite a lot of food....





Some food that we ordered


And after we were full... we went over to Jln Kayu for dessert at Mad Jacks... hahaha... I had the banana crumble with ice cream aka wild boy. I don't know why but restaurants now-a-days seem to like to give very provocative names to their menus like wild boy, blowjob, Dr Juice, quickie etc... Not that I mind, I mean where can you can a blowjob for only $8.50... hahaha





Some interesting photos taken at Mad Jacks



Oh yah, about cy's birthday 'bash', just got the photos from Colleen, will be posting on that a little later (after I sort out everything). Bottom line, it was a great night! hahaha

New stuff on my blog

Well well, i got some new features on this blog... first new introduction to the family is the counter... so i can track how many kukus actually ready what i write other then myself... hahaha (no offence to anyone who is actually reading this k)... another is a change of the title... I've named it 'The Orh Orh Side'... or it can be translated as the dark side (read orh orh in hokkien)... yup, think i have to try to go the bad boy image, see if it'll suit me hahahaha.... okie i don't haf much time to blog today, so I just keep this short. Well look out for more new stuff to be added to this blog (when I'm super free)... tata

Lucky me

Haha, been pretty lucky with mahjong lately. Won a little a Tammy's place previously and just came back from Sean's place, won a little bit more today. Yup, but his sis was a little grouchy today, so had to stop playing at the west wind. But enjoy myself tonight.

Yup but was a little guilty tonight, Tammy and cy came all the way from the west and we only played for a while then they had to take a cab back. Somemore both of them lost, so was feeling a little guilty. Must think of more stuff they can do in the east so that they would consider coming back here again. Actually there are quite a few things to do here, theres prawning, kopi, supper, movie, lan shops, beach etc.... yup there is entertainment here, but I don't know what they would want to do, so it was a bit difficult to suggest something...

Haiz, another feeling guilt came from my lack of studying. Been trying to keep my mind clear of evil thoughts, but it just seem that I can't get my act together and just sit down to study. Really lagging quite a bit, and it would be pretty bad for me if this continues. Oh god, please help me settle down quick and start my study regime. There are like so many things I do not know and I'm still like taking things lightly. I did try to start studying today, but everything seem to be going very slowly. I can stare at the same page on my notes for like hours and still only absorb minimum knowledge. Hopefully I will be able to catch up during this 1 week break, really don't want to end up having to ta bao anything this sem. Think maybe I need some planning for myself, well for a start (which is a pretty late start, haha), I've decided that tomorrow is FYP day. So I'll be concentrating on my FYP tomorrow, and if I'm lucky to be able to finish a lot tomorrow, I'll squeeze in some studying as well... Well ideally it should happen that way.

Also tomorrow my dad says that he'll take the car for servicing, actually I really want to follow him to the service centre, but it is pretty far away (at jurong). And the thought of it just puts me off.... and if I go there with him, my day is literally over.... haiz don't know how lah, hopefully can work out something.

Entertainment day

Firstly let me just show a pic of dinner that I made about 2 nights ago.... hahaha









Yup, its the japanese curry with rice. I bought the paste thingy to cook, pretty easy. The taste was not too bad, however the flavour was supposed to be extra spicy but it was like not spicy at all...

-------------------------------------------------

Okie, I really feel like I've been a little slack these days. haven't been studying a lot, in fact yesterday was literally games day. Basically the day started in school, with my group making a presentation. And of course, our presentation was a very last minute effort (as usual, haha). Yup we only finish doing our slides the night before. But still, the whole presentation thingy went pretty well. We even got for ourselves some 'fans', wahahaha. Yup, one of our classmates told us that they like our group, because our presentation is always 'short and sweet', hahaha. Well that settles another presentation, just another one more to go for this module.

Yup and immediately after lesson, while I was walking with cy to his lab, we saw Ying Xin on the comp, emailing her prof (because she's late for her appointment again). So cy had to ask her if she wanted to go ktv. And of course, not long after, we found the 3 of us at JEC. Initially wanted to take the k lunch package, but thought that it was a bit bo hua, coz can only sing for 3 hrs. So we took the k student instead (allows us to enter at 1 and can sing till 7). A bit later Tammy joined us at the ktv as well. Time was really passing very slowly, for the first time, it felt like no matter how many songs we sang, there was still so many hours more to go. It was quite a tiring k session, we literally sang till there were no more songs for us to sing (haha, not that bad lah, but can consider as no more songs that we want to sing). Well we were eating so much tibits and singing so many songs there, it was pretty fun. But the spoiler came when one of the staff who came in to our room to replace the tibits said,"tibits are for eating, not for playing", and after saying that she just walk off. It basically pissed most of us off, coz (1) we were eating and not playing with the tibits (2) we paid for the tibits. Yup so that was the turn off of the whole k session. But I think we eat about 10 bowls of the tibits so after k, I was super full hahaha.




















Cy trying very hard to singing emotionally to 'xin bu liao qing'
















the drinks and tibits we had


After ktv, just when we were about to decide if we should leave for home or go study. So Tammy said she's too tired to study, but she has the energy for mahjong.... and tadah, the next moment we were at Tammy's place playing mahjong, hahaha. My luck was more of less ok last time, managed to win bout $9 (yup, very happy with that). Left Tammy's place at about 12... and just before we were deciding how to get them home, we came up with another ingenious idea of going to cy's place for drinks. But on consideration (that there are only the 3 of us), we though we'll skip the liqour and go for kopi near Ying Xin's place instead. So we went for teh and kopi, and we chatted there till about 3 in the morning before I drove them home. I was super tired when I reached home, went to bathe and just slept.

Well, today we'll be going to Dempsey road for food and drinks at night... pretty much looking forward to it, haven't been there, heard its quite a nice place, so I'm gonna check it out tonight. But cy and beng say its nothing much just a lot of mosquitoes, hahaha.

Car down

Hmmmm how should I put it, well I must say I'm soooooooo proud of myself today. I actually changed my van tyre (I've got no idea if this is the correct spelling, but I just can't seem to find anything similar in dictionary.com, so to hell with it, as long as I say its correct, it is correct, wahahaa). Anyway, back to the story. Well today while I was driving home along SLE, I didn't have enough time to escape some metal piece (don't know what it was on the road, only recognise it to be metal) that was on the road, so basically my wheels went over that thingy. Of course the first thing I told my friend Sean was, " I hope my tyres don't punture.".... of course, the next thing you know it my van started vibrating like crazy, and taa-daa, my tyre gave way. So I was like on the expressway with my friend and with a flat tyre. Sianz.... And the best part is I've never changed a tyre before (I only briefly saw my dad do it once). Luckily Sean was there, he was a car mechanic during ns, so I guess that helped a little, although he told me that he's also not sure how to change the thing. So we just had to try our luck to unravel the mysteries of tyre changing.

First I went to get the tools from the back and unloaded the spare tyre from underneath the van. Then we had to figure out how to use the car jack to jack the van off the floor.











Step 1: Learning to use the car jack

After that was done, we had to unscrew the nuts from the flat tyre. And that was the hardest part of it all.... The nuts just wouldn't come off.... We had to pull, jerk the nuts with our hands and feet on the thing (I've got no idea what its called, basically its some crossed screwdriver thingy... whatever). We did have to struggle with the nuts for some time before they finally came off...









Step 2: Using all our drink milk strength to remove the nuts and getting our hands super dirty

After that it was all smooth sailing, and for 2 noobs in tyre changing, we managed to change the tyres in less than 1/2 hour... So I think that was quite an achievement, wahahaha. Have to really thank Sean for helping me throughout the whole process... hahaha.

Well after the tyres were changed, I found out that the new tyres were not inflated. So the first thing we had to do, is to get out at the nearest exit (which is at woodlands), to find the nearest petrol station so that I can pump some air into my wheels... And of course I didn't know how much air to pump, I had to retort to the oldest trick in the book - argaration method. Luckily that worked and I was finally able to set my mind at ease. Haha, nonetheless it was quite an exciting experience. I must admit that I had fun changing the tyre, though it was pretty tiring... hmmm pretty rthyming here - tyre, tiring... haha okie crap....






Sean and Me: Victory pose on SLE (yah notice my messy hair from all that 'exercise' on the expressway, I'll try to upload a more flattering photo of myself soon. hahaha)

So now that I'm equipped with my new found knowledge, I'll be invincible on the road... hahahaha.... maybe not...

A new beginning....

Okie, this isn't the first time I'm blogging, I used to have a blog but I didn't use it for some time and the whole seem to have disappeared. Well, its been a few years since that happened, so forget it. Anyway, I only thought of starting this to document what I'm doing and maybe some memories that I have of this miserable life that I have (haha, okie its not all that bad).

I've always been resistant to this blogging thingy because I know I won't have the patience to upkeep the postings, so I'll just see how far this will take me. But this is a good form for me to express myself, and at the same time train up on my pathetic english. I've never been good with words and alphabets, its all so foreign to me, so I do hope that this blog-phasis will help transform my command of the language. I know I won't be blogging everyday other day, so hopefully blogspot won't close down my blog again.

Well maybe a little update on my pathetic life. School sux as usual, haven't been able to understand most of my lectures. Been really trying very hard to pay attention but it just doesn't seem to be working, nothing seems to the going into my head. Sometimes I really wonder if its just me or does it happen to everyone in the lecture theater. Had 2 presentations this week, one for my final year project and another for my 4007 module. Both of them went ok, with minimum efforts put in of course. My group has been telling ourselves that we gotta put in more effort this semester, but of course so far its been 'say only, no action', wahahaha. But I promise I'll buck up.

Been a little addicted to Bleach lately, so far I've watched till 100 something episode. Yup, I know its still a little off many others, but considering I started watching it only recently, I think I've been watching too much of it already, hahaha. But heard from my friends that the next part of it are fillers, yup a turn off there, hopefully it'll revert back to the manga version.
