Rapid
Last weekend just went pass quickly… fri went to check out ion fully this time… super alot of good food la… im gona wack all of them soon… the shops were ok… with the new ones providing some good shirts and pants… but abit pricey due to the rent i guess… then finally had ba chor mee after 2 months… and since the tray was hidden out of view, I helped 2 ppl take and give it to them… they gime the “why is this guy helping me face”… anyway headed home after that to rest…
Sat was breakfast with the guys and some we11 before doing my assignment… tats about it… then sunday I was sick… great timing… so progress was slow and I feel so weak and I know I cant concuss if not the assignment is a goner…

Major!
Too busy this few weeks so here are some major updates…
So Long’s finally back from US and we went to greenwood avenue to check out this Italian restaurant called Donna Carmela… Yes I have been eating Italian cuisines recently… everytime I savour the food I would think I’m sitting by the window and looking at the people and carriages moving along the pebble pavements… Im listening to some classical italian music when Im posting this… anyway here are the pics…
The pizza with raw toppings… amazingly it tastes heavenly!
Bread was served first… with 3 toppings, brinjal, mushroom and 1 more i forgot
YH is so happy with the food
1st pasta with pork sausages… I like!
Some ‘dumpling’ pasta which Yh like
Long like this one… Lasagne style yea
Complimentary dessert… Ice-cream in some cream puff skin… super nice lo…
A very warm-hearted feel to the place… well done…

Theres a breakfast coming up this sunday… haha an excuse to return money also to Long who paid by card that night…
So last week was fun as well with a picnic @ sentosa with the gang… totally holland when we were @ 2 opposite ends of the beach… took 2 hours to finally settle down at palawan… ha… then the feast begins… with too much food… and had to play the number game to finish some of them… after that we make our way to partyworld @ CQ… had a blast over there… then finally we wrap it up with settlers… played the taboo with bendy bob… super funny… then came the joke of the day of toa central provided by cyn as usual… went home feeling super tired… still I woke up in time the next day for my soccer match… no subs! halfway through the 2nd half I was shagged out already… playing with a tough opponent somemore… double unlucky… anyway it rain towards the end but luckily I brought another set of clothes… went home and had dinner before concussing…
So school re-opens… and this person is still saying funny things… I’ve already used the lag time theory on another one… hope she gets the idea… and I have an assignment due on next monday already… haha super speedo…
Today went to check out ion with joe,fate and meg… though i only browse like 10% as most of the time the girls are doing shopping… well actually only fate is shopping… shopaholic… ok time to rest… my stomachs not feeling gd… maybe its the lunch today… good night world

Gist
Fri- Dinner was out as my parents went to ktv… so I took up the offer of eating @ chinatwn with Akatsukis and tried out some new place which aaron found which is just normal… maybe we should have ordered the frog leg’s porridge which alot of people is eating there… after that we took a cab down to selegie to play l4d… took quite a while as the road to stamford rd is closed due to the night festival… and the taxi driver keep repeating it with aaron replying with the same answer ‘I know’… anyway the game was quite fun with the usual stunts and after that we went to wait for the bus… amazingly there’s alot of ppl @ the bustop and we remembered there’s road closure and we went to check the board… true enough it lasts till midnight… so thats an info for $3 bucks for aaron and irv cos only their buses are affected…
Saturday was pri sch gathering day… after a quick nap I woke up more tired… but still more ppl are later than me,yh and long… I cannot believe there’s 20 of us taking the bus… feels like excursion… so we went to hooked at upper thomson and saw wee hian working there… its only his 2nd day… what a coincidence… the food was normal as expected cos I tried their branch @ the rail mall already… saw Wong pipi outside @ the massage place beside… he didnt come cos of his ict… saw alot of faces which brings back some nostalgic feel… the one who changed the most is Louis cos he was botak back then… haha… after that we went to some jap restaurant at esplanade and continue our session… finally the last part of the trilogy was at some places along the CQ river to wrap up our chat… by then I was running on 10% energy as my eyes are closing… this is the 1st time in so many mths I haven been slping for 24 hrs…
well I talked to most of them… the ones I really connected to was WJ and MX… WJ came from a broken family… poor… and he’s taking 10 tution a month just to pay his household expenses… with a bro who is rebelling… maybe cos of the situation… he didnt have many friend in his sec or jc and uni days as he was busy working and studying… well he’s doing well now with a gf and 1st class honours coming… he’s already apply for hdb flat… with a plan of his future already mapped out… I didnt think anyone plan further than I did… I hope everything turns out well for him after he got his job aft grad…
MX was studying occupational therapy in aussie… dealing with ppl with intellectual disability… something which I was considering too before I took up psyc… well alot of experiences for her from a choice of interests vs money job to issues with family and friends… being the only asian working at her place over in aussie is no easy feat… what she said about guys in her field make sense to me… guess no matter how this society evolves… the basic foundation of mankind wouldnt change… only more difficult… I must say its nice to talk to ppl with the same passion for something… I guess the next time we can chat would be the end of the year…
Sunday woke up at 1 due to me slping at around 5 plus… had a quick brunch before going for my match… thrash the opponets 8-2 as their defence was just lousy… haha… though I didnt do much aside from sending a through ball, closing down the players most of the time, being a menace on the left by cutting in and assisted the last goal… took a nap when I reach home… finally im a bit tired now… time to hit the bed… sch re-opens on the 20th… one more picnic to go!

Plans
Going to meet Long after he came back from US… and HY too this thurs… going to Cafe Iguana… Saturday will be another pri school gathering… this time it consists more of those who didnt make it the last time… then sunday will be the long awaited match… hoping to get my favourite left midfield role again… but our top scorer, Collin, and playmaker Joe is overseas so I hope they dont make too many changes…
I was waiting for the bus back home today and this auntie ghost in from my blind spot and cut me to going up the bus… since I’m not in a mischievous mood so I did not go into agressive mode… then on the bus an auntie cough like a frog croaking which sends fits of laughter to me and ah boon… then on the train when I was standing near the door which dont open till braddell… then this girl who board at city hall walked all the way infront of me and hold on to the metal bar just beside of the door… the train wasnt that packed… we were like inches away from each other and I jerked my head back abit and gave her the what-are-you-trying-to-do look… shes quite pretty I must say… some time people just do things that simply amuses you… anyway time to hit the sack… eyes half opened already…

Relaxed Weekend…
So friday I went to see some perfumes to ask Joe get for me since he’s gona wait for Fate to knock off… Had a lousy wanton mee @ far east basement, its the same one as the sunshine plaza’s but lousier quality due to demand. Crap… Waited almost half an hour for our order to come, and the cashier still cough infront of us… Pretty face doesn’t mean immunity from H1N1…
Joe said something about the age group being stagnant at that area while we kept growing… for awhile I thought it was something nostalgic but logically of course we will age leh… looking at the teens showing their creativity in their dress sense reminds me of the good old days… Afew things I observe while waiting for the food… the guys always like to act cool or just wait for their female friends to find seats for them… like its embarrassing to do all that… Anyway I went home and caught up with the animes I’ve missed… pretty busy week for me yea…
Saturday was rest day as I caught the top 20 music videos in the morning… then nap after lunch… watch some shows and went to check out the I-Shop sales @ Cine with Ron and Jon, which I didnt get any earphones but they got alot of eye candy… and fail to get my mouse as the computer shop at Heeren was closed down ages ago… After that we went for some we11 to round up the night…
Sun morning went for my ‘training’ @ bishan park… felt better than last week maybe due to enough sleep… scored a goal when no one close me down and I saw a hole at the goal… then went to amk hub to get my mouse which Collin said I thought u wanted a pet mouse… zzz… drag myself home on my injured feet and knees… its like when the game is over then the nerves reconnect and you feel the pain… good for me I guess lol… took a knock on my left knee and right foot… was limping abit… looking @ the dark clouds which cast sleeping spell on me I was about to take nap… but time doesnt allow and I had to decide whether to go for my 2nd session… so I decided to go and have a slow jog along the usual path to test out my leg… shutting out the pain after it surfaced is no easy feat… reached and everyone is waiting for me as we again have the minimum turnout… played barely 10 minutes before it rained… went home and concussed str away till the guys came over… wrap it up with psml supper and thats it for the week… some pics below from my mobile which I’ve been too lazy to upload…
I saw this when I open my eyes as I was asleep in the bus… my heart stopped for 1 sec
