My Birthday ( Part 1 )

Hmm... have not been blogging for sometime ah ... Busy man!!! Busy with so many things.... shall talk abt my birthday ....

Hee ... met sormui on last Sunday. One day before my bday. She say she wanted to take me to eat dim sum buffet. I love buffets. U can eat and eat and eat...... thats like paradise, simply delightful. We went to China Square. There is this Chinese resturant there that has this dim sum buffet or rather high tea I think. It starts at 3 ends at 5. We got there JUST in the nick of time. We arrived in a cab, haha…. Sormui forgot to bring her Ezlink card lah… then late because have to go back home to get it. Blur blur one….. : P
After we put down our things, we hurried over to join the growing queue to get our dim sums. Talk abt variety man ….it had everything that dim sum should have……except the xiao long pau. For the first round, we both filled our tray with food. The magical thing abt dim sum is, you can stack up those “longs” hence u can imagine how much we took. The table for 2 we had had barely enough space to put all those stuff we took!!! Haahaa… we had siew mai, har gao, ma tai gou, some fried prawn, charsiew paus…………
We took like sometime to finish it. Then sormui, with having eaten the last siewmai, hurriedly got up and drag me to take more food. Hhahaa she is still chewing her siewmai while queueing up for the next round!!!! That was rather hilarious. After the 3rd round we were really quite full. Time check : its 4.20. hmmm so 2 hours to eat buffet dim sum is more than enough. We were really eating quite slowly by then, trying to stuff the remaining stuff that we “overtook” into our inflated stomachs. Here are some pics of the dim sum….


Round 1 : yummy!!! :P


Round 2 !!!!!

After the dim sum, we walked out of the resturant, feeling very satisfied, not to mention FULL!!! Later we walked to Boat Quay. Along the way, sormui jus refused to tell mi where are we headed. Later I found out that we are going to the Jazz Pub that I always mention to her. Hmmm how nice of her to remember J .
As it was quite early, we stop by at the Coffee Bean beside it for a drink. She tried to pull some surprise by asking mi to go check what time the pub opens then slipped my present into my bag. However, I came back later, put my stuff back into the bag and somehow never noticed the present. She got this really constipated look on her face. As I was wondering what was happening she suddenly burst out: “ WAH!!!! SO OBVIOUS ALREADY U NEVER SEE….. HEARTATTACK AH !!!!!!!” which made me quite stunned. What thing what thing???????? Orh………. Opps ….. how can I missed that……???? Opps stun failed :P sorry lah…..
.
After some guesswork, my present turns out to be a wallet. A nice black Pierre Cardin wallet. Open it and surprise!!! There is a picture of the both of us – the one we took at the millennia walk fountains, in it. A nice personal touch… THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!! J


My bday present !!!

Think before u ask......

haahaa got this from an email. Think its pretty amusing... some are quite true...others well......

13 things he hates about people:

People who point at their wrist while asking for the time....I know here my watch is pal, where the fuck is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?

People who are willing to get off their arse to search the entire room for the TV remote because they refuse to walk to the TV and change the channel manually.

When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". Fucking right! What good is a cake if you can't eat it?

When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the fuck would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they?

When people say while watching a film "did you see that?". No tosser, I paid 10 quid to come to the cinema and stare at the fucking floor.

People who ask "Can I ask you a question?. Didn't really give me a choice there, did you sunshine?

When something is 'new and improved!'. Which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it.

When people say "life is short". What the fuck?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever fucking does!! What can you do that's longer?

When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks, "Has the bus come yet?. If the bus came would I be standing here, Knob head?

People who say things like 'My eyes aren't what they used to be'. So what did they used to be? ears, Wellington boots?

When you're eating something and someone asks 'Is that nice?' No it's really revolting - I always eat stuff I hate.

People who announce they are going to the toilet. Thanks that's an image I really didn't need.

McDonalds staff who pretend they don't understand you if you don't insert the 'Mc' before the item you are ordering..... It has to be a McChicken Burger, just a Chicken Burger gets blank looks. Well I'll have a McStraw and jam it in your McEyes you fucking McTosser.

Everything`s seemed to be spoiling on me.

My phone spoilt on me today. It refused to respond to any shit i pressed on its keypad. What the HeLL manz !!! So damn pissed.... and it must happened when i need to reply messages lo..... The 4 in 1 printer back home also spoil (my sis spoilt it ), my notebook screen also spoiling......... everything electronic gadget i am using seemed to be either faulty or partially faulty ..... AND IT ALWAYS SPOILS 1 OR 2 MONTHS AFTER THE WARRANTY IS OVER LOH!!!!!!!!!!!!! fuck man!!!!
So basically today i am jus driving my dad`s car up and down Singapore. First from NUS to home to pick up that damned printer, then to orchard to fixed the printer and buy myself a new phone. The repairs for the printer cost $198!!!!! Damn shit!!! but what to do ? This printer cost 600 plus ....cannot say throw away also ...no choice! Repair lah ....$##%^#$
Bought the Samsung X430 for only $48 with a 2 yr plan. My FIRST flip phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Basically i jus upgraded my existing singtel plan. Initially set my eyes on the sony erricsson K700i but that will cost $498 and i am only just a damn poor student. Anyways, a phone is jus to make phone calls, i think have the camera, bluetooth, whatever fanciful shit inside also no use. After awhile also will get sianz, and it will jus be another phone. Quite happy with the phone that i got. Its cheap, what do u expect? Only complain is that the sms system SUCKS............maybe i am jus not used to it, but i find that the nokia one is better.

Fireworks.... wishes flows with the river.....

Went with sormui to watch fireworks today. The last Sunday of the three for the fireworks festival. I was pretty fearful of coming again at first but later was very glad to found the place alot alot less crowded that the week before. I nearly died there last week!!! It was so crowded that there were ppl stepping on my feet!!!! The fireworks this week was nice :) much nicer than last week`s. There were basically more variety in terms of colours and patterns. This time, we managed to get a better view, and much closer to the fireworks as well as the booms when the fireworks goes off were very much louder. There was the smell of the gunpowder as well. There was this crazy guy behind us.... he just keeps on WAHing ......making exxagerated WAhs.....comments....basically jus trying to attract attention. Eh.... ShutUP!!!!! dude.....

Later, went to coffee bean to have cheesecake. Hey, I love cheesecake now!!!!! I used to hate it!!!! but i still hate CHEESE.....esp those powdered form that u sprinkle onto yur pizza to make it into some piece of SHIT. BUT now !!!! I LOVE CHEESE CAKE ....yummy. Then we had tis bottle of espirit drink and had this idea of writing our wishes into a piece of paper, insert it into the bottle then throw it out into the river. wah ....littering rite.... : P The Wishes we wrote....some were pretty nonsensical, with alot of silly cartoons and stuff like that.... then realised that the paper too big ...cannot fit into the bottle. ( Aiyah ... we greedy lah .... can ??? ) Later brought it up to the bridge, trying to look inconspicious...... Look right.....Look left..... Check again.... take a deep breathe.... and throw/dropped it into the Singapore River. hahahaha... dunno if it works ...but certainly hope that it will come true though. What an idea!! i would never have thought of it.....

Now, our wishes are flowing with the river.... hopefully some wish fairy will pick it up :)

Genki Sushi.....NUS

Recently, Genki Sushi opened at NUS. The resturant is rather large and it offers 20% discount off the total bill. There is this so called master chef there too. However, i think he shld be called Master "Kao Bei" chef. Everytime he makes a sushi, he would yell out the name of that disk at the top of his voice, in a tone that resembles the war cry a kungfu master makes before executing a move. Talk abt " Garangness " in the kitchen. Then every few mins or so he will be yelling at the top of his voice something like... " Hao Chi bu Hao Chi " with the strong Jap accent. It means tasty or not tasty in chinese. But the sushi there is not particularly tasty..... in fact, the sashimi there don`t taste very fresh, in fact it taste rather stale.
The other day I went there with all my previous hallmates....." Gathering of the Devils". There was Engkiat, Eugene and Rayner. We ordered the Big party sushi set ( its $42 ) and some other small sushi plates that passes thru the converyer belt. We waited rather long for the party set to arrive, feeling very impatient coz we were all so damn hungry. When it finally came, we were a little disappointed coz the ingredients they used to make it was not very fresh. After we finished everything, Rayner noticed that there was a fly that flew into his cup. Then we had this evil idea to put the fly into the sushi and complain. ok ok .... i admit that that was very mean of us.. :(
Anyway, it so happened that it was the manager that he complained to. Its soo funny, coz Rayner was like pretending to look damn pissed, telling the manager that there was this fly lah, the sushi not fresh lah, then wait very long lah.... The manager was like.... okok sorry sorry we are very sorry abt this....then he said, " Ok this party set is free for u all and would u like some ice cream? Its on the house. " Then he hurried over and brought us 4 hagendaz Ice cream. I was like ....WOW....... is this for real??!?!?!?! Muahahahahaha...... Then Engkiat says that maybe we shld carry some flies with us for future gatherings. Evil.......evil........hehheh.......
Anyway the entire meal which is suppose to cos us like 50 plus is now free. Not bad. But i think they gave in to us so readily coz they just opened and they don`t wanna affect their reputation. Anyway, such bad rep travels and spread fast among the students. Hahaha....for shaking their heads now....... don`t accused us for being evil liao lah ....we felt baaadd..... really lah ...haha :P
