Happy Moments

Just barely had 5 hours of sleep since this morning. . . still feeling tired and sleepy. . . not forgetting i still have to work tonight. . . Was intending to sleep till for at least another 3-4 hours, but was awaken by the loud conversation of my sis and bro. . . Nevertheless, since i had awaken, might as well take this time to blog down a significant. . . enjoyable. . . happy. . . day i had yesterday night. . in case i forget all about. . .

It was a night which we had planned and look forward long ago. . . A day of New Year's Eve. . . and a day to celebrate Roy's birthday. . . This year, we had decided to make it special. . . since it may be the last time for a very long time before we got another chance to gather like this. . . a group of good friends and buddies. . . -for many of us may be called up for National Service soon, serving in the army with new friends new aims and new mindsets. . .
We dressed up formally(most of us). . . i got myself onto the set of clothings i wore during my secondary school's graduation night. . . but i wore it in a more Beng and stylish manner. . lOlx. . . Brought along my digital camera too. . . managed to capture some nice pictures for the memorable day. . .
Our first activity of the night was. . . a dinner at the Thai-Chinese restaurant in Hougang Mall. . . It was a good place to dine. . . the dishes were delicious and cheap. . . the environment was good. . That was all enough. . . but one thing. . . the service just sucks. . . Rong got real pissed with that. . . because they just dumped us with a large plate of rice and left without dishing out of us. . . there wasn't even any smaller plates/bowls for the individuals until we requested. . . Well. . . Can't be blamed. . we are not paying any service tax on dining there. . .
So except for that. . i guess it was a filling and sumptuous dinner for us. . .
Next came the highlight of the day. . . K box time. . ! We went to the one at Ang Mo Kio, where we had reserved a room from 9.30-2am. . . We were there early. . so decided to waste the time on pool, at the K-Pool next door. . . Got myself playing with Wei, for all the others were too strong an opponent for me. . .! It was the worst pool games i had played for years. . . totally out of any form. . . no accuracy no strength no angle. . . . i guess i can count the no. of balls that i shoot in with just the no. of fingers i have on one hand. . . Wei wasn't getting any better. . . maybe just slightly worse than me. . ? I got a reason to account for my lost of form. . . Haven't been touching on pool for. . . 3months. . ? Have been playing billard instead, and the feeling just isn't the same, just can't get the different sort out i think. .
So. . . while we saw the other guys completing at least 3 games in 20minutes. . we didn't manage to complete even one. . . we only got to the second game when we decided to abandon the 1st set. . . lOlx. . .
Then the highlight of the day. . . We were made to squeeze into a damn small room. . . barely enough seats for all the 6 of us. . . I remembered i was standing for most of the time. . . Can't be helped, they were in full house the night. . .
So. . . lotsa of songs to sing there. . . new songs old songs. . . it's a thousand times better than the Hougang one which we used to go. . . So our singing marathon starts the moment we arrived. . .
There were 2 free drinks going along with the individual room charge. . . One of the drink had to be a special cocktail, either alcoholic or non-alcoholic, served for the day. . . We ordered the alcoholic one. . It doesn't taste any good. . . More like beer mixed with some syrup or something. .
All of us were prepared to get into the night full of alcohol. . . no soft drinks. . . that was the rule. . . We ordered a jug of verbon, transquila and beer(not sure if i spelled them correctly). . . preparing to sabotage Roy, the birthday boy, and make him a drunkard before he goes home. . . We didn't succeed of course, only managed to make his face turned reddish-pink. . .
We tried ways to make him drink. . . all of us took turns to toast him. . . we played guessing game(Cai Quan), came out with a conspiracy to sabotage him but it failed. . . I ended up as the big loser instead. . . Luckily i could still hold my liquor well. . . but we feeling really bloated with alcohol. .
Came out with the cake bought yesterday half an hour before new year. . I was one of the birthday boy too. . . for they decided to celebrate mine which falls later, together with Roy's. . . The cake tasted great. . . courtesy of rong for sponsoring the cake and me for choosing it. . . all of us were so kept busy with eating that we didn't bother about counting down. . . After that was back to our singing and the guessing game. . .
I guess it got a bit boring later on, i observed after seeing Willy falling asleep. . . He was sleeping so soundly that we tried many ways- screaming with the microphone, shouting 'fire! fire!' 'fall in!'. . . but all to no avail. . . Are all NSmen always so tired. . .? lOlx. . . We only managed to wake him up after giving him some vigorous shaking. . .
Well. . . Good times doesn't last long. . . Time just past so fast while we were having a great time. . . It ended all so soon. . . We just spent some time for supper after that and went home since most of us were feeling tired, some like Liang still got a date. . . and some still have to work. . .

So damn fast man. . . 1st Jan 2005. . . 2 more days to school reopen. . . s!aNz1/2. . . not yet touch my assignment, not really sure to trim my hair. . . dead. . . 2 more days too. . to turning 18. . . fast. . . fast. . .
