it's half past 3 in the morning, and i just got back home...
showered and ready to tuck into bed. =)

been a while since i posted, guess i'll update a lil b4 heading off to lala land.
met up with my fellow primary sch classmates a few days ago, it's been so long since i saw them.. mary, jingni, cindy and shikun. they had a gathering to open the class time capsule and i didnt go cos i was still in brisbane. darn.
anyway, we met up at taka for lunch and they passed me my letter-to-my-future-self.
Goodness.
the stuff i wrote inside there.
i shan't post it up here because if i did, that would mean either i was super drunk/high, or my skin grew to a thickness that would put a whale to shame.
i could literally feel myself shrinking in embarrassment at myself, doh.
hurhur

today was a really tiring day.
i headed to orchard at like 1 plus in the aft, went to have lunch at wisma foodcourt with mei and managed to catch up as well.. it's been a year since we last met, time really flies. we did our usual bout of chatting and gossiping, ha, feels so good to gossip.
geesh. army didnt teach me to be a man.
it taught me to ba a bitch! haha!
how i missed my bitching days in office with terence and daniel.
anyway, we chatted like forever until i had to meet gewi and her cuzzies for dinner, so i went ahead to meet them.
ok ah, 530 met at city hall mrt. went to esplanade to chope seats for a good view.
already so crowded.
so bopian, wait for seat.
after a while, yay! some fella left his seat at the railing seats. so we squeezed into the place.
then, we expanded our terriroty.
and, with the newspapers that yours truly brought (3 stacks of whole straits times newspapers, yes, with classified ads and recruit and the whatnots), we got ourselves a nice picnic place. whee..
onward to dinner!
we tapaoed lots.
orh luat, char kuey tiao, hokkien mee, bbq chicken wings, carrot cake, rojak, stingray (YES!)...
full....

we ate a lil too early, and since it was only 8pm at that time, we decided to partake in a friendly game of uno.

doh.

play and play and play.

until the 1st fireworks was displayed at 10pm.
ten seconds only can!
wapiang!
at the ntuc office building across from the esplanade.
measly ten secs.
tsk.

never mind, we waited for the second one at 11pm.
11 secs!
!@#$%

then all the pple decided to crowd at the railings to get a better look.
nvm, the 1st 2 ended so quick, still want to hang arnd, squeezing and pushing and emitting copious amounts of b.o.

b.o. combo of the day; cigg smoke and bangla bao-u.

buay taham man!
then behind the 6 of us (me, gewi, simeon, dwayne, della and charlene) got 3 beng wannabes from malaysia. smoke and talk cock and leering at us. wth?!
so we bitched abt them openly. and they to us.
like we cared.
ha!

the final fireworks at 1155pm was indeed spectacular. 8 minutes in total non-stop, and with quite a variety of different patterns.
nowhere near those in brisbane but ah well, not bad la.

but to start of with such disappointing pops and to end of in such a big bang, could it be telling us something?
(2006 for s'pore started out like shit, but we finished it with a big bang and in a blaze of glory?)

the worse part of the day.

the crowd.


the place was packed! to the brim. we tried going into city hall mrt to catcha train, packed. so, we headed off to the dhoby line. the roads were congested until like no tmr. seriously.
the cars couldnt move or advance cos of the traffic, which was prb due to the sheer amnts of people walking across the roads like nobody's business.
i could very well say that the cars were as lively as an unconscious monk in the middle of an orgy.

well ok, i did just say it.

so we reached gewi's place, at 230.
we were walking from esplanade to dhoby station for more than an hour.
tsktsktsk.
gewi was tired and not feeling too good, so we sent her home b4 going to a nearby coffeeshop for supper.. mmmmmm....
indian rojak, and sap-kum-mai-fun (fried beehoon, the wet kind)
and we left arnd...... 315?

and know i'm extremely tired and just realised i dozed off on my keyboard again.

ok, heading to bed now, i'll update this post with the pictures if i can then..

Happy 2007 everyone..
=D
