I'm In Love With Lacie!
oh my god, it's been one hell of a tiring week for my legs! for the past friday, saturday and sunday, it kicks off with me starting work at the starhub cabletv roadshow outside plaza singapura.
and for those 3 LONG days, which starts from around 10am to 9pm, was really fucking tiring because we have to stand like 90% the whole time! my legs were so aching by the time i reach home that whenever i tried to sleep, it was difficult. it is really not an easy job like i thought it would be. argh, i can't imagine when june comes and i have to walk 8 days straight! i'll damned. someone please save me.
nevertheless, i finally get to experience one on one with people/customers. well, most are really friendly and easy going while a minority are fucking tough to handle. i hate them. thank god for our supervisor, if not, we wouldn't have know how to deal with the them.
not forgetting i also get to make more new friends, both guys and girls. all of us got along well just the first day of job. we even got to make friends with the other section which we didn't talk at all. we just make plain eye contact and smile and thats how we know them.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
oh and the main event on sunday, 3oth april, would be the rowdees match against a unknown chinese team at 9.30am at bedok view secondary. sad to say, alex and i couldn't make it because we were both working. my brother also had duty that day and hock was unfit. in the end, we only had the exact team of 11 players with no substitutes.
at first while i was making my way to work from city hall, i was shock to receive the message from wenyan that we were losing 3 - 2. i was like what the fuck! (because we are that good and we hardly lost to any chinese team) at that point of time, i actually thought of skipping work and joining them for the match. its as if it was our fault because we weren't there to help. to try to encourage them, i told them that if they did win the match, i would treat each and everyone for ocha. thank god after more updates from wenyan. we lead the score 5 - 3 by halftime.
half way working, i was rather moody due to the fact that as long as we haven't win the match, i feel so uneasy. finally, i was JUMPING IN JOY when i got a few messages from the rowdees girls that we've won 7 - 4. MUAHAHAHA. despite the lack of players, we TRIUMP again! (not the bra brand of course). WO MEN HENG QIANG!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and that sunday night, after i got back from work, i followed alex home as i was lending his bicycle from him. then i proceed home to change first before meeting keong, qingan, albert, ben, khiaseng paul, terter, kuku, bahgeh, matoot, charis, sharon, felki and ahni for cycling to simpang bedok for supper.
when we finally reach simpang, my eyes and legs were already so tired that i hardly have the appetite to eat. i was more like awaiting the guys to quickly finish their food so we can hurried back home to rest. most of them went to central park to slack first while i came back home to sleep.

monday, 1st may:
in the afternoon, i went over to wenyan house together with tong and james where we spent hours there for dvd marathon. the dvds were bought in by wenyan who went malaysia the day before. in total, we watched 3 movies which includes "i not stupid too", "the hills have eyes" and "scary movie 4". all 3 of them are good shows in their own ways especially "scary movie 4" which i initially thought i would watch it at the cinema. well, it has a dumb kinda unlinked storyline, but it is sure fucking funny.
for dinner, we ordered kfc and my brother came to join us soon. it is also the first time i saw wenyan and his brother fight. haha. okay, as most of them have to go join chris for his birthday celebration at fisherman village, my bro went back home to drive the car to sent them there. i thought of joining them but i was tired as usual, so i went back home with my brother.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tuesday, 2nd may:
met up with tong, paul, terter, james and wenyan at 820 for dinner. my mother and brother came to join us as well. we then made our way to ocha to find the other rowdians. we stay there for quite some time before we left for primemart to buy our prawn baits before going home for awhile first.
why buy baits? because tong, wenyan and i were going fishing! by 11.45pm, i went down first to flag a cab to go fetch them both. in no time, we were there at the big lake i suppose. we only have 2 fishing rod so mostly only us guys are fishing while wenyan sitted by to watch. this is considered my first time fishing so i kinda make afew stunts.
erm... the stunts are, i actually wasted 3 hooks when i tried to swing them into the water. cause it didn't LAND on the water but the huge tree nearby instead! hahaha. it even happen 3 times!, i wonder what the fuck i was doing as i just didn't learn from my mistakes. i know i'm a nub but i swear its not gonna happen again.
the thing is, at the end of the day, i caught a huge catfish compared to the 3 smaller catfishes that weitong caught. haha. i guess i'm lucky. and for wenyan, the 2 times she tried, ended up with her hooking onto other peoples' lost hooks. hoho.
it was indeed a fun time fishing and i don't mind doing it again. the next time round, no more stunts for me. we were finally done fishing at 4.30am. we took a cab back and wenyan alighted first while weitong and i went to cc's macdonald's to buy our breakfast back home to enjoy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
wednesday, 3rd may:
not really a fruitful day except that mond, weitong, tiannee and wenyan came over to my place at around 4pm to watch some chinese vcds. after that at 8pm, weitong went home while the rest of us went over to food court to eat the recommended western baked rice. i must say it is better than average delicious and rather cheap, so i might go for it again the next time round. after the meal, it was to vcd shop for awhile before we made our way home.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
regarding my national service, i have now received my updated letter after much anticipation. similar with weitong, my unit remains the same and i will be going on the 7th july at 8am. i will surely miss you guys when the time comes.
below are afew of the photos we took on our fishing trips.
the essential equipments and items we need.
the prawn bait and the lemon (for washing away the raw smell).
no fishing can be done without the fishing rod.
trying to figure out how to fish.
the fishy fishy we caught. judging by the photos, i can't figure out which fish is caught by who. they all know the same size to me.
