That My Heart Misses,

Last Sunday: Okay, we didn't really take many group shots. For the first time, we were very unenthusiastic in photo taking.
So a typical SIXTH gathering:
* Food, losta food.
* People, usually quite a bit. (There was 17, or was it 16? + 1 Fifther)
* Noise, too much, too loud.
* Standing around. Always happens. (Actually as long as it's a big group, this is inevitable)
* Splitting up. Also always happens.
* Fun. PLENTY!

It was nice to see everyone, again. Well, almost all at least (:

**

Had my last session with the bitch doctor last Tues, afterwhich D came by for some (awful) dim sum at Chinatown, and walked from Outram to Chinatown to Clarke Quay. Awesome(: Haha.
Queensway on Wed, was telling F, "this used to be my hangout!"
Well, 2 years ago back in Malan yeah.
Then our favourite taohuay at Prinsep. Rocher taohuay. =D

Thurs was bitchfest at Raffles place, but damn good dinner at Lau Pa Sat,
Friday was bitchfest 2, then damn rewarding mango+durian (no, they don't really go too well together) at Ice Monster.
Then we walked to Little India, and passed La Selle. DAMN NICE PLEASE.
+++ High School Musical to end the night. SWWWEEEETTTTT.

Then, it was the WEEKENDS. WEEKENDS. WEEEEKENDS!
Took Kid on a Mentally and Physically draining day out with me.
(We missed Wimbledon Ladies finals because of that!!)

We went on a Misson. That, well, was successful eventually.
And then.. we caught Transformers. Optimus PH(il)RIME!

Thanks for the present anyway, Kid. As promised (or rather, challenged!), I'll only open it on Wednesday!

Sunday, sunday was crazy.
I picked Y up, and we left for East Coast Park. Sweet huh.
Feed the mosquitoes, enjoy the breeze, catch the Sunrise.
It was crazy. Bumped into lotsa familiar people: "peipei" from DVC (Khoon Wee, la), Y saw Alan Sim, peeped under the cap of someone wearing the blue PL prefects shirt: VAL!, etc, etc.

Made friends with Janis' best friends- FOOD (from second class spring rolls and swiss rolls to first class curry puffs and fruit tarts and eclairs)

Then left East Coast with 7 of us (including myself) all squashed up in the car.
Awesome yeah, every traffic light we stop at invites stares and frowns from pedastrians, and I vividly remember asking everyone to WAVEEEE.

And definitely getting lost. We went round in circles from the targeted Eunos mrt, changing our destination to Kembangan, then Paya Lebar, and in the end, circling the National Stadium as if we were on a Historical Roadtrip, "And on your right, you can see the National Stadium that is about to be torn down....", went high on stupid jokes, screamed knowing that we didn't know where we were going, heard Isaac share his "shaking cars" story and Janis' clueless questions, and a random (early) Happy Birthday sung out loud while I was busy figuring where to turn next......


Well, we ended up in Kallang anyhow, with numb thighs from the weight of friends, exasperated (HAHA) driver, relieved passengers, and burnt out tyres (kidding, kidding).

(Oh, just remembered after replying Yanns' tag, I always thought I had no Street Directory to refer.. only til we were already lost and already figured our way and was heading back to Y's place did SHE (not me man) realise there was a street directory in the car ALL ALONG. Omg, slaps face. But nvm, this ends my going-round-and-round-aimlessly days.)

Dinnered at Sticky Rice (All-time favourite, thanks!) for a pre-birthday dinner with family, coincidentally a junior was working there. We coffee bean-ed too, and it felt more like a Meet-the-Fockers Lims session than a Birthday dinner.

And then, WIMBLEDON! I fell asleep while they were playing the fifth (aka final aka most intense!!!!) set, but I knew Nadal was gonna lose anyway. Federer deserves to win. ACE KING.

Camp facil training 1 today. Fun, fun, enriching. Learnt lotsa new stuff. But slightly irritated at the fact that there was a comm breakdown, so now I won't be spending my birthday at JBAC (ulu cck) belaying and flying fox-ing, but I'll probably have to miss day 5 of fac camp.

And I actually forgot where I live!

GY: "Where do you stay?"
P: "Serangoon."
GY: "Oh, me too! Which part?"

P: "Ave 3, near Macs."
GY: "Me too!"
P: "What's your block!"
GY: "240."
P: "OH MY GAWD. THAT'S MY BLOCK" (and everyone else in the room gasps)


Okay, coincidental yeah. But guess what. My block's 241. How dumb.

ANDDD, I'm back to being pressured to go for SUfourteen. Die. It's the same old feeling, I WANT; But can I take it?

Btw, don't you think Live Earth wasn't as impressive?
And so much for promoting Going Green, people just leave their tv switched on watching the concert instead of sleeping maybe, or to wait for a nice performer?
Well, at least I did that.

Mindless entry for the mindless soul! I am sleepy.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUGS DARLING.
