RENOVATIO

it’s coming to 2 in the morning and i’m just back from business meeting… ok, i think i gotta get use to this..

had my first fire drill today!.. pretty lame actually, i was down taking a breather when the alarm rang (heng ah… dun hv to climb down 17 floors). only after everything was over did my buddy ask if i took a photo of us at the rally point… doh~

finally i’m awake… but still feel like sleeping somemore.. haha.. only managed to sleep at 6+ this morning. but it doesn’t matter .. i had my dose of. . . ktv!! whahahaha~

met up with the kbr ppl to celebrate char’s bday yest. it was pouring and i was soaked by the time i got to the place. then kena threatened somemore, the rest of the ppl werent there yet, so i was designated the title”table reserver”. auntie demanded i return the table if the rest of the grounp didnt arrive on time.. wah lau, so big size still kena threaten.. sia sway man. hahaha. blk 232..amk ave 3. crab bee hoon, for someone who usually goes across the border for seafood, i must say, the crab was actually quite good.. the price..urm.. was reasonable lah.

had chicken wings amongst other starters. i wasnt expecting one, but when i came back, there was a drumlet waiting for me! aww.. so touched. hahaha. so here’re the pics

5 mushroom dish.. with man tao? fried bread lah. then got spare ribs too

then there’s the fried tou fu

posing for the camera~

chilli crab~ tastes good. somemore the claws are huge..

then the very guilty, yet very tasty butter crab.. the gravy is sooooper rich~ so worth it.

then the prized dish.. crab vermicelli. the soup and the noodles was de-e-e-e-e-licious.

after the meal, spanc, alvin n jun-ie had to leave early, the rest of us headed to harrys at esplanade for a drink. for the record, i did not lose my way, i was really waiting for a parking lot.. anyways, the performer there was just as good as i remember the last time.. the waiter there however, was urm.. i dunno.. i still had like a quater of the drink in the glass left, and he asked me if i was done.. HELLO??? haizz..

couple of us decided for ktv after the round of drinks, yours truly included of course.. hahaha.. how could i pass on ktv. hehz..

yes~ and that was the size of the room..it was very very spacious.. i think its like a room for 15 20 ppl i think. there’s even a small stage for a solo performance, hahaha.. just to guage, we had to move closer to the tv to select our songs, cos the words were just oo small to see from the sofa.. sang at marina k-box. the place itself was huge.. had to walk like 3mins or so to get to the room from the entrance.

bday girl choosing song in front..

then there’s the cold shivering girl… urm actually we all were shivering. think since the room was catered for like 20 ppl, the air con was also catered for 20 ppl. and with only 5 in the room, the urm, HVAC was oversized..

gee, that shirt sure looks familar.. hahaha

just home from class, and mum springs the bad news. my aunt had just passed away.. yet another victim of cancer.. haven seen her in a couple of years. last time she was in the country, she was here for treatment. the worst thing, she was in screaming in pain when she finally left.

guess it takes a tragedy to wake me up. who knows.. i might go by cancer too..

hope the family’s coping alright.. hope she’s in a happier place. without suffering..without pain..

today, i took my first mc.. haiz.. damned lontong.. or was it the sardine puffs..with all the frequent trips to the bathroom to “unload” both from top and bottom, i think i should hv lost at least 3 kg.. +plus the lack of food.. couldn’t eat anything besides the breakfast (which prob caused the food poisoning..). i did finally hv my first meal just now..since yest’s breakfast. so far so good. no throwing up. yet..

then there’s my hair color. nothing fantastic.. looks.. urm … black, with a tint of brown in the sun. the worst thing, my white hair is now bronze.. -_-”

had my first decent sleep this afternoon. doc’s meds does wonders.. i hope i can pull though tmr, and upgrade to solid foods…

ok, i mentioned the lift scene. but i forgot to post the clip..hehz.. silly me.. i still think its romantic though..

if only we played cash, me would be rich today..was big winner in last night’s mj game..whooohooo~ oh, bought my hair dye yest … copper red. (live dangerously!..). then the gals had this crazy idea to dye my hair for me (but not that dangerously!..). so anyways, gonna be dying my hair now.. hope the color comes out alright..

found this whislt surfing the net just now … they’ve got the “ahem” version too… the second clip. u’ll know wad i mean.

virtual reality.. at least it has a happy ending.. dun think i’ll whine anymore..4 now.. i do think the lift scene is romantic though.. hehz

alright. this is the other side no one knows. but i’m pretty sure u all might have guessed it already.. anyways, let me put all your doubts to rest. yes, i do occasionally listen to indo songs. wad did u expect..hahaha.

oh yes, i just updated my k750i’s software.. i can now scroll through the contacts like a nokia.. whooohooo~

and now,

peterpan - ada apa denganmu?

repeat *
repeat reff

erm..loosly translated..

peterpan - is anything wrong with you? (..that’s the direct translation..but urm.. in a concerned way. not the “what’s wrong withyou??!” but the “is there something wrong” .. hehz)

please forgive me, it’s all my fault
and when you’ve cooled down, tell me your problems

*and me
my characteristics
and me
my mistakes
and i love myself
and i miss myself

let’s orget everything
everything has changed
and we’ll forget the hurt

repeat *

chorus:
i ask you tonight, can you see
the difference that cannot be mentioned?
but why won’t you change?
is there something wrong?
oh…only the night can erase
the difference that cannot be mentioned
but why won’t you change?
is there something wrong?

repeat *
repeat chorus
