Company dinner @ 5:09 PM
woah... bad start to a gd dae... the train pulled out of the darkness and into a torrent of rain at bishan. how the heck am i supposed to get to sch liddat was the constant question on my mind. after meeting both zach and lamzy at the control station, we decided that lanning would be the best idea b4 going for company dinner. thus we went to meridian to lan. lanning was not bad la, the funniest being my fervent attempts, since friendly-fire was on, to shoot my team-mates till they had abt 9 health left and get him onto the battlefield, of which he'd be killed of course, leaving the frags to me... MUAHAHA. but since he could shoot me too, sometimes the opponent'd get a double kill.... bleah.
anywayz, after lanning, we still had plenty of time in our hands. went to Somerset mrt onli to find our ez link cards still with the lady. maybe this was a premonition of things to come, but we didnt care. got our cards and went to dhoby ghaut mrt. well, we visited the aasics clearance sale first. none of the shoes interested me. so went farrer park. kiat wee was wif us lar. at farrer park, met junda and changed. den went Qian Xi Lou. when we entered, all the primers inside planning liao. all of us stoned inside happily until zach suddenly asked me to call his fone. i obliged, onli to find it hung up. zach realised dat he left his fone at the LAN centre... as he and JD and lamzy rushed to the lan centre in a taxi, all i could do was pray, and pray. but as i did, i think God was trying to send a message to me, maybe to zach they all too. i suddenly tot of Bible Quiz. izzit another lesson that we have to learn? the hard way? the horrible truth to jolt us outta dreamland? i have no idea... but all i know is that wat my dad tot me had been useful. that is "Always check ur belongings b4 leaving a place". its a lesson for all of us to learn, albeit a hard one.
anyway, dinner was fun. i mean, it ROCKED. was laughing gas sprayed onto our table? We were laffing our arses off most of the time! joke here joke dere. wah liao. my abs hurt sia. juz eat den laugh, juz eat den laugh. wah kauz. food not bad la, but the "sense of occasion", and the dispensal of formality made this dinner veri heart-warming. things got a little outta hand at times (*wink*), but everyone's little effort of a little joke made the whole table the best, the funniest, the messiest, the most bonded (in my opinion) and simply DA BEST!
on the way home rocked too. rained. wth. i mean, after the rain, in the mrt. when Mariar(Shawn Tan), Mud(Zach) and Francois (moi) were left. joking all the way. wah liao... didnt know Shawn was so much of a joker. tot he was a quiet and reserved snr.
reached home at 11.20. phew! rox rite? now gotta do hw... basket...
he left a mark
