Met up with Roo, Yu, Nana, Huimin, Huiyun (Aunty Lam! Haha that's what I call her in the office XD). Find the missing person? Bobo! Haha but neh mind it's her Dad's birthday. XD

I was late! =( Was supposed to meet them at 6pm, but I stepped out of my house AT 6pm. XD Was looking high and low for my damned EZlink card, finally gave up and hopped on a cab (considering I was grossly late!!!) down. The taxi uncle very hip, listen to 933FM, most taxi uncles either listen to 1) 958FM (like my Ah Gong XD) or 2) Gold 90 FM. Was listening to 蕭敬騰's music on my MP3, was plugged to my left earphone, wanted to plug the right one but was kinda worried that the uncle might think that I'm disturbed by his music so decided not to. Lol.

This restaurant bar as Serangoon's an eye opener for me man! We had our main course downstairs, and there were times when they played awesome rock music (Metallica) and then I look at the Gachapon and neoprint machines before me, hahaha they really clash la. Went crazy laughing cus' the music didn't match the decor/environment. But boy their plasma TV was smashin'! Find the noiseless MTV a lil'...umm weird though. Lol. Thanks for the oreo cheesecake fellas! Smelly never say no to sweet stuff and A LITTLE alcohol. Nothing like a good sugar rush, eh? (wink wink) XD

Ordered Grilled Chicken Chop with mashed potatoes, they told me to eat slower cus' Huiyun's on her way, and my plate ended up like a... as Huimin suggested "swamp". My mashed potatoes went gooey and the sauce and the chicken skin all kinda merged together into one yucky concoction man. Haha I couldn't even pick out the mushrooms from the mess o_0! But I'm not a messy eater usually!!! I swear it's the mashed potatoes! =D

Huiyun arrived! Chat and bantered at the restaurant (they needed to recover from the main course before hitting the booze XD), regailed them with the origins of my nickname 'Smelly', *sighs* it all started with the LEP camp. Hahaha eh eh Roo don't try to evade responsibility hor! Lol. But I don't think it really stink leh. I think I developed my resistance for odours during my secondary school years. I always reach school insanely early (so I was the assigned class newspaper girl, they tompang me to get the Today newspaper), so I always see the garbage man (you know those where he rides this cool-looking vehicle and transports thrash from dump tp dump) and I'd pass by him almost every day, I'll pretend to not be bothered by the stench cus' I think it'll hurt his feelings right? Imagine if you were him and someone went eeeee and all that in front of you, you'll feel a lil' hurt right? And it's not even your fault it has to stink that badly. At the beginning it really kinda stank, but I kinda got used to it over time, it really isn't that bad lor.

Headed upstairs which is the bar area. This is a really cool concept, it'd be a plus if you can have like an in-house musician, have some awesome singer with a simple keyboard or acoustic guitar it'd be perfect!!! Like XIAO JING TENG for instance! Haha! Surprisingly, I didn't order Long Island, picked Tequila Sunrise instead. I like citric flavored cocktails! Haha but Yu's Sea Breeze and my TS's aftertaste really sucked, got that annoying cough mixture bleargh flavor. And I think they skimped on the tequila, tasted like Fruit Tree Fresh orange juice. =( Roo ordered Black Russian! Hahaha I was joking hor Roo XD Huiyun asked me to help her order Chicken Chop and Cosmo. Funny to have a chicken chop at the bar area right? With Cosmo to down it somemore. Haha but they didn't think it's funny leh. o_0! XD Yun said the glass looked like those condo showroom kinda vase. Very apt description. After Huimin's and Yun's commendation on Choya, I think I might go try a bottle someday! I'm gonna challenge fermented choya. XD

Yu and I got this leather chair that looks comfy but is not exactly comfy, the back of the chair's really stiff (like something that corrects your posture) but the good thing it can swing from side to side, like some slimming device that Osim will have. They can call it Iswing or something. I like Nana's Fizz something something, very well balanced cocktail! Cus' the juice doesn't overpower the alcohol. Gonna try that next time!

Had fun laughing at the techno music and the noiseless MTV, haha think we're pros at lip-reading already. We actually got through Pimp My Ride like we were watching it with the volume on man. I love their toilet! Very cowboyish, makes me feel like dancing that lil ditty in Jay Chow's 牛仔很忙 MV. Did something stupid with the tap, I shifted the handle right, no water, shifted it to the left, still no water so I kept shifting it left and right, then Nana lifted the handle out and water came out. -_-" Tell me I'm not stupid, somebody!

Left the building at appox 11 plus (??). Nana and I weren't too excited about the wait for bus 853 (they got a baaad track record man). But it came sooner than we thought. Paid the adult fare (take note of this cus' it's gonna be crucial in the later part of my post) and the driver gave me a funny look but he didn't say anything. We sat at the seats right behind the driver, told Nana that that's usually the 'old people' seat, haha like aunties lor. A ticket inspector boarded the bus so I gave her my ticket, then she asked me for my student pass (!), then blur me told her I don't have my student card then I did something stupid! I took out my NTU matric card and asked her if it's the student card she's looking for then she says "No, Nanyang not student. You must pay the adult fare la lidat." So, I told her I paid $1.50 (10 cents more than the adult fare lor!!!) then she didn't believe me! Lucky Nana told her I paid the adult fare. Then she went to verify with the driver and he told her he printed my ticket wrongly. -_-" Don't you just love public transport? Haha honestly I do, especially bus rides, but I always have this lil' fear with bus inspectors, Nana also thinks that the lady was kinda fierce, she should go work at the Customs man. Walked home from the interchange instead, nothing like a nice walk at night.

Realised my eyes tend to get a lil' dry after drinks, think it's cause of dehydration, hmm shall bring along a bottle of water next time. ;) Thanks for the night fellas though Yu and I'd love to have a lil' more to drink. Just a little, I swear. =D

ps. JAM 蕭敬騰's contract (with Xing Guang Da Dao)'s gonna end in 2 days' time! Yayness! And exams are gonna start soon, boo to that. =D So looking forward to his album whch is gonna be out either by December (latest by January). =DD
