Arab Street - 05 Outing

Mentally & physically TIRED,

that's the reason why I decided not to go to work today. probably an excuse though, hahaz. making full use of my off-day, I dragged myself off the bed, head down to the swimming complex and continued my laziness by spending almost two hours baking in the sun with my survival kit, an ipod (it's windy too at the same time), half an hour in the jacuzzi and half an hour swimming SLOW relax laps in the pool. HAHAZ! A quarter of the day has been gone just like that but I liked it - just so relax and relax and RELAX!

Another quarter was spent sleeping at home - afternoon nap is addictive + it skips my lunch easily, hahaz! The next quarter - hanging out with my classmates at Arab Street (once again). Dinner at Zam Zam Restaurant, the briyani was nicceee but the mutton is irritating (my plate of rice went flying around the table). and finally, this outing have achieved a higher attendance with Ms Nga & Kwa with us. too bad the table not long enough - the guys have to be on another table!!!

















Halfway through the dinner - with Ms Nga.

and finally, one class photo with Nga & Kwa.




















Some random shots with my classmates.

















Relaxing at Haji Lane

Lucky guy. Lucky girls. (don't comment pls, lol!)

























and last quarter of the day, back to my sleep (my brother in camp so I owned the room for the night, niceee)! Well, all the best to Gajan & Shaun who's enlisting in less than a week. Signing off, give a victory smile!

Kung Fu Panda

Love PO. It's been really long since I caught my last movie at a cinema. caught it at GV Plaza Singapura with Sai How for a 9.15p.m show, zZzz. love the part where Po imitates his Master Shi-Fu, his will to grab the last dumpling, eating the peaches, etc. Animated movie never fail to impress. and I still have not watch Iron Man despite having the 'low' quality version somewhere at home. I think getting a DVD is better. No so pirate afterall.

C O N F I R M E D: I'm flying off to HK

AFTER...

- changes of dates from end of july to 1st week of aug to 2nd week of aug
- several discussions on where to go and what to do and how long to go
- different plans of possible departure and arrival dates
- confirmation of leaves, no burdens and no clashes
- weeks of praying that there will be promotions for cheaper flight

FINALLY...

"Dear Mr Koh Weijie & Mr Law Sai How, your trip has been confirmed."

Booked the flight to HONG KONG on 12th August (very very early morning flight) to 18th August (very very late night flight) - so that's seven full days! It will be their summer sales, weather should be sunshine, food will always be tempting, experience more of HK (many things that I've miss out previously), HOPEFULLY it will be a real good holiday before I enlist myself.

And this shall mark my first trip that is fully sponsored by my own earnings. Previous trips (within past 3 years) were proudly sponsored by my mum.

Guilt. guess I'm really fortunate...

- Indonesia/Malaysia (with my parents)
- Bangkok (with my sister)
- SHANGHAI (with School of Business friends & Shaun)
- Hong Kong ( with 7 of my poly mates)
- JAPAN (with SPBAND)
- INDIA (with mostly my poly classmates)
- Dubai (with classmates & School of Business friends)
- TAIWAN (with my greatest friends in poly/spband)

and now, another trip to Hong Kong with my best friend. I predict the list will just goes on... I just LOVE travelling but the downside is, I need a lot of $M$O$N$E$Y$. hahahaz! well, is the booking of hotel and itinerary part that's going to keep me busy and lots of headache now. hahahaz!

Personal Shot

I LOVE this shot, not because my face is covered :

- good hair day
- bright colours
- stripe cardigan (thanks DKNS for the present!)
- joyful mode
- and again, who don't LOVE McDonald?

I still miss MCDONALD

Who don't love MCDONALD?

I previously attended a McDonald Birthday Party sometime back in April and I'm missing it. I want more of it but SuperSize ME, I shall not go enthu upon seeing burgers & fries. and McDonald always seem so bright and colorful.

Note: I'm looking forward to a Chicky/Cheeky Club Birthday Party which hopefully Chee Kay Miang will take on this advice and hold it. Or we hold it for you. hahaz!


















Together with Birthday Girl, Arisya and classmates which I have not seen after the last day of school. OOPS. Where's Ronald McDonald?

and we have a game in the middle of the party. CAUGHT IN ACTION!

It seemed obvious that I have cheated trying to blow & burst a balloon... with the help of a pen. ahhaahz! and Kelvin enlisting today. All the BEST!

It's KING birthday, not the royal one

It's KING aka Brandon's birthday, an early one before his turn to enlist. Thanks to his invitation that I got to enjoy a great dinner at Marina South Pier. and a get-together session with many of my friends in band.

We're a good batch, ain't we?


Taken with birthday boy: Randy, Kelvin, BRANDON, ME, Sai How & Yuan Jun

Besides the dinner, we were invited to this hotel suite that he booked. Stayed around till 4a.m. then took a really expensive and long ride home (estimated $60), and my brother offered a free haircut to Sai How the next morning.

My brother is currently a freelance hairstylist, do patronize him.

Bid farewell to my 'soon' army friends

Our dearest Kelvin Tan & Low Jia Ming are enlisting within the next two weeks so we hold a farewell dinner session for them at this Arabian restaurant, Cafe Le Caire @ Al Majlis. It's basically meat, meat and meat plus some traditional Arabian food and of course, SHEESHA (I don't encourage smoking but I did smoke on the sheesha). Nice catching up and it's been long since a big group gathering.



Attendance: Dustin, Yuan Jun, Brenden, Desmond, Sai How, Yimei, Kelvin, Yong Qi, Hanxian, ME and Jia Ming



Shot taken outside the restaurant, we look too GOOD & GUAI to be posing such picture in back alley... at night. hahaz!



Hanxian. Sai How. ME.



and we ended off the night (3 A.M!!!) with supper and soya bean drinks nearby. CHEERS! had a great night talking no sense and laughing non-stop.

damn tiring... cabbed back... 2 hours of sleep... went to work in the morning... tennis session in the afternoon... GSS shopping with Sai How at night... damn tiring... I NEED LOTS OF SLEEP NOW!

short update

just a short update. basically I have no usage of computer at work for this week due to some reshuffle of working area and I am seriously very bored at the new working area (though it's a recreation club with pool table, nice sofa, music, air-con) but there's simply nothing to do beside talking to colleague, read books and stare at blank walls. hope it's not for long, at least bring me back to the original seat with a computer to use. I'm tired.

weekend, went over to Dong's house to collect PS2. head over town and still as usual, i got to WAIT for bestf while settling his stuff at the bank. got tennis rackets and dinner. I can't believe the last stop was Swensen's even though all of us were full. and sun, as usual, time spent in Mus'art. I'm looking very forward to the concert & competition.

and yep, Monday, hahahaa, tennis! need lots of practices. Tuesday was driving, I still suck at it but I hope I pass advance first. Wednesday, damn tired, home early and sleep early (I even missed American Idol). Today, finally had a swim after one week and down to band room to self-prac together with saihow. but thanks yueyuan for passing me the keys. and tml, band FO camp. hope they will have a good time!

bad days

I had an unexpected diarrhoea attack on Tuesday, after lunch and it caused me to head for toilet like for so many times. I think from the first till the last which ended on Wed evening, there should be almost thirty times. my hands and legs became weak. I'm too vulnerable to eat and get off the bed. haahhaahz. even cancel my driving lesson, for two consecutive weeks already. haiz. basically chiong-ing HK drama. ahahz. and just nice, I got my enlistment date on the day.

Good afternoon Mr KOH WEIJIE.
Your enlistment date is on 09-Sep-2008.
Your reporting unit is POLICE ACADEMY.

ahahahah, good life yeah. slack life? ahhahaah. I want go tekong experience though. ahahahz.so i guess my life next two years will be pretty much the same as now. and hopefully can drive. hohoh, cross finger, if my brother confirm go oversea work, I can take over his car. WOOHOO. but still, cross my fingers. ahahahz. hmm. must lead a good and wonderful and fruitful NS... POLICE life.

anyway, labour day. headed to swim & tan. haahha, I don't think I look very very dark so still, should be fine. then off to have lunch at Shukodu pasta at Cineleisure. I thought it's quite nice for the pasta but nono for the dessert and drinks. ahahahaz. then set off for movie with saihow, desmond & kelvin. Superhero Movie may be lame but at least it keeps me laughing, sometimes, it's quite worth it to spend. and some scenes got cut off!!! (probably technical problems) damn suay!

haiz. bad day. lots of irrational and simply rude customers. but well, they never make sense anyway so it justified my judgement on them. haiz. brooke white is out instead of jason castro. alexis is out instead of amanda. and yep, I extended one more month of work but still hope that after that, other departments need me cos I want to work till at least end of July. Need money. can start planning hk trip le since enlistment confirmed. but cross fingers too. hope is successful.
