A crippling weekend

I’m tpying this on bus 162, back from town and homebound. This sounds weird but I’ve always wondered how it felt like to type something on laptop whilst on the bus. It feels like I’m in a scene of some typical movie on the big screen, where some smart journalist or author of some sort is deep in thought, thinking of what he’s next line on his document would be. It’s an really interesting thing to do. Simply because this IS mobile, and things are constantly changing around you, and somehow I feel like noting down every single detail that’s around me now.

Well, the bus is passing by Ai Tong and 2 guys just came up the bus. One of them is wearing a Hardrock tee and the other is carrying a plastic Spiderman bag, trying to look for a seat.

Now, I’m at Bishan Park Sec. 4 girls in uniform came up and they’re standing in front of me. I’m sitting right at the back of the shuttle. They’re taking pictures with one of the girl’s Samsung camera phone.

Next, at Bright Hill temple. One guy and one woman boarded the bus. Nothing special about them. Just regular temple goers I guess. Reaching the driving course really soon, but apparently the bus has stopped at the traffic light. Next stop would be home. I guess I should stop here for the time being. Need to save this file and keep my lappy into the case I just bought yesterday. Later! =)

Yes yes. This is indeed an overdue. The above was typed on Friday. And it’s already Monday. Well, guess much has happened in between and my time management hasn’t really been the best.

But guess, to sum it all up, it’s been all happening and fun. Well, that excluding a few hiccups here and there.

Met up with Alv at Tampines interchange and went off to YY’s birthday party at Changi Aloha. Were busy yaking away on the bus and ended up missing our stop. Had to back-trek to get to the place. Quite a big chalet they have there and people started to roll in as time went by. Said ‘hi’ to my neighbors and helped out with the ‘manufacturing’ of the party balloons. As expected, Ms Hoon inevitable screamed throughout the process due to… Well, basically burst balloons.

Sheng was there. For some reason, it felt weird at the beginning. But the ice broke soon enough and I’m glad that things are the way it is right now. Alv, hoon and Sheng had dinner together, and we played some Bridge to entertain ourselves, as YY was busy entertaining the rest of the guests. Oh, and I thought she looked good in her outfit that night, just that those heels were rather scary. Sincerest apologies to those wearing heels out there, but I think heels higher than an inch is a bit too high for my comfort. Simply ’cause images of an ankles get sprained on high heels is too grotesque for me to handle. Oops. Nonetheless, I don’t deny the fact that girls look pretty/elegant in heels, it’s just… Scary I guess.

Met Ruihua that night too. Hadn’t seen her since JC year 1. It’s been quite a while. Took the late bus out of Tampines with Ruihua and Sheng. Crapped all the way out and realized how lame Sheng could be. Tsk. Funny girl.

Got to the HK café at elevenish and took a queue number. Wasn’t really expecting to encounter such a huge crowd but we got our seats no less. Managed to have few words with Steph’s boyfriend before shifting into the none-smoking, air-con zone. Interesting guy. Spoke with an American/English accent, I can’t figure which.

Got back home at 5am and knocked out soon after.

Well, Sat was supposed to be a fun day. Meeting up with the people. I just had to go down to the court to play and end up limping again. This time round, it’s gonna take another 2-3 months. Sighs. This very much means I’m gonna miss out on the marathons and hall games that I was supposedly looking forward to. Simply detest this feeling.

Anyways, BBQ at Alv’s was great and managed to have some fun. It’s been quite a while since we’ve gathered. PE’s new specs looked good on her. (Well, it’s a good time to change one too. The old one looked like the one she’s been wearing since sec 1!), Ling’s still as BLUR as ever, (WHooops! But hey, sometimes ignorance is bliss. *grins*), Ber still can’t stop laughing as we played “hei zhima and bai zhima” and we tried out Haidai, Hoon is still as violent as ever, threatening to throw people off the 13th storey, and well, Alv’s still Alv I guess. Enjoying his moments of serenity and bliss BBQing under the stars, while the REST of us made ourselves scarce. Lastly, poor me came in with a bandaged knee, having problems hopping around and getting food. Felt bad not helping out with the BBQing, but I guess my dearest peeps wouldn’t mine, right?

Hey guys, thanks! Thanks Hoon for constantly staying by the pit and BBQing food for the lazy people OUTSIDE. Thanks Ber, bringing us entertainment to us with your little zit on your upper lip =p. Thanks Ling, for being blur. That brought a tremendous amount of fun to the night. Haha. (I’m so evil.) And thanks PE, for peeling the prawns and feeding us Otah. Muahaha. Sorry bro, couldn’t help much with the prep or cleaning up. Hope the ham was nice. Oh, bacon was sinfully yummy.

Otti came by and had some marshmallows and watermelon. Left for soccer not long after. Caught the first twenty mins of the Bolton-Spurs match, but essentially got bored by it as we kinda knew it would have been a boring match after Spurs went two goals down. Tsk. Switched channels and caught a bit of some lame Stephen Chow show. Eventually, things turned so boring that we took the keys and hit to East Coast. Had apple pies from the drive-thru and yada yada.

Sunday was a horrible day and nothing much interesting to mention. To sum it up simply: doctor, treatment, bandages, medication, and rest. Get the flow? Sigh.

Anyways, thanks Ott! For the ride to school. Hope the kacang was good. =)

It’s 1250pm now and I’ve got a lecture at 2.30pm at LKC Lt, which is like, a helluva distance from where I am right now. Thinking of taking a nap right now and then take the shuttle there later at 2pm. Just maybe I should do that.

Well, a very good week to all those who happen to read this. =)
