in case you're wondering, why have i been online everyday since last thursday, yes, i've been on leave since friday till today! even though yes, today is the last day, but i've enjoyed my past few days of (not really undisturbed) rest and i guess it's sooner or later right?
anyway, i caught "balls of fury" with qingzhen on friday. as what he mentioned, it was a pretty low budget movie, although there were a lotta funny moments in between. although i doubt things like these ever happen anymore, it's good to know sometimes that these gangs do exist. weird gangs that is. but o wells, never gonna happen in my life i guess. that's a good thing right? anyway, yep, other than the laughs, we went window shopping at taka for university clothes and found out how poor we were. simple pants costing up to $80 bucks, and then cardigans costing $60...waah. somehow you wonder, am i poor? or are the living standards in singapore increasing? just like how some people can afford a tissot watch of $39,000, god knows whether they are using shark's fin to wash their mouth. just my 2 cents worth on that.
saturday was another day out. met xianlun n' seng at clementi for some pool before we met up with shiwei for settler's at holland v. if you're wondering, settler's cafe is something like mind's cafe, and for those people who have never been to mind's, it's basically a cafe where peeps go to play board games. and if you think it's just monopoly, scrabble or jenga, you're in for a surprise! they have out of the world games, and it's hard to mention everything, and besides that, they serve food and drinks with it, which is pretty great. it's not very expensive either, so maybe you can pop by for a visit. anyway, we went to play some shooting game which was pretty lame, so basically you have 8 cards, 3 shooting cards, 1 quick shooting card and the rest are just fake shooting. so you have this foam gun which on 3, you point to the person you wish to shoot, and the person, on his judgement, chooses whether he should surrender or maybe declare that the card is a fake, and then the person who gets shot thrice loses the game. it's quite complicated to explain, but when you try it, it's really fun (and lame...not meaning you shiwei! haha!). after that, round two of board games at my house, this time, the usuals, mahjong with our favorite blends. speaking of blends, i've just started a new blog for wine, liquor and great food. it's
absolutelyalcohol! (you can find the link under affiliates on the right from today onwards) and yes, it'll be featuring new wines, liquors and definitely excellent food to please your tastebuds. it'll be good for wine beginners and basically anyone who loves alcohol! definitely, the blog does not condone any irrational acts or alcoholic behavior, rather, enjoyment of the liquid kind. watch that space!
sunday was basically another nuah day...after all the late night mahjong there's always this recovery period, and then monday was out with my relatives for some great food! i love mondays with my family, because it's the only day i get to spend the morning with my mum away from work! and consequently, it was children's day, so my dad was on holiday too! (i'm not saying that he's a kid here, but haha....he teaches in a primary school lar) so we went for our breakfast at Ya Kun, great bread, a tad overpriced but it's still okay. lunch at 大长今. it's this korean restaurant that copies the name of the popular korean drama which features food and herbs. and then, a tea break at the coffee club at holland! waah...tt's a lotta food ain't it? haha...yep once a week, provided i'm away on monday. looking forward to more of such mondays!
anyway, that's all for today. pretty tired right now, so i'll catch a snooze and i'll be back on sat aye? take care!
