now tis is going to be a v long entry simply bcoz last nite, our mi gathering [mostly og2 ppl] was filled wif uneventful quirks and hilarious actions. met daniel at tamp mrt control station at 5.15pm [i was late for once!] met qian yu on the train n headed to marina bay.

ruth, merissa, marianne n jo were early. we waited for quite a while in the stuffy underground platform before jason foo, sephine, clement, jason han, hui yi n aloysius arrived. by then, jo had to leave le. we took a pte bus to marina south [area where ppl fly kites] to hv dinner.

bargained wif the aunty who promised free drinks [2 bottles of sparkling apple juice], ice-cream n 3 sticks of satay per person. it was a buffet bbq steamboat sorta dinner at only $10. somemore got no service charge n gst.

merissa's random wrds added much humor n wrong innuendos. for example, "daniel, wld u like ur buns fried?" n "hey, i feel something vibrating.." clement's pot was the first one tt bellowed flames n the aunty had to come save us wif a wet cloth. aft repeated attempts to get the aunty to change the burnt aluminium foil for the other two pots, aloy n daniel decided to take matters inti their own hands. the 'stole' the new aluminium foils frm untouched pots n attempted the changing themselves naturally to alot of screams, fire n burnt shoes [stamp out fire ma].

btw, the drinks here was ex. they charge inflated prices. for a 1.5 litre bottle of coke, it cost $3.50.. so i was reluctant to quench my thirst. aloy oso got jason to buy beer for him coz he's still underage. bahx.

tok to marianne abt her 'crush-crush' or 'like-like' n tis is merissa's definition.

crush-crush: going ga-ga over a member of the opp sex. oblivious to his or her obvious flaws n still tink he's perfect..
like-like: knows the person's flaws but hv accepted it n mayb even regard these flaws as perks..

aft tt, we took more pics, went to the bowling alley to cool-down n arousing the attention of the security guard. robin only came only.. soo late!! =P leaving the bowling alley, we secured a ride on a pick-up truck to get back to the station. the open-air back was the closest we cld get to a convertible n everyone had crazy hair. someone even commented on how bangladeshi wrkers feel riding on the pick-up.

we took train to cityhall wanting to go marina sq. by luck, we saw our og2 leader on the train. such coincidence. =) walk to marina sq where i cld not tahan anymore n bought a 500ml limeade frm golden village which was much more not worthwhile at $2.50. later, the rest started to play pool. bored, marianne, ruth, merissa, hui yi n i left. i reached tamp feeling thristy again [gosh, the soup muz hv alot of msg or ajinomoto] drank barley frm food court while waiting for daddy to come pick me up. daddy's 10min become 25min. stand until my legs all pain sia. came hm dead-tired.

btw, thank u for the presents. =)
