went to met boon kiat for lunch at IMM, had a good chat on other people's NS life.. then talk about nuclear weapons in other countries (strange right?), then went a round to look look see see and bought nother chinese movie vcd.. quite enjoy this kind of activities, simple life and some more no need to spend so much money...

17/06/2003, Tuesday

went to jihao's house again for a mahjong session in the afternoon with jihao, shicong and yanxi (lee shaung came in middle of the game), this time we got bet money, thought that I will win the first place, but wnd up I lose the most.. it's really fate that I cannopt win if money is involved.. don't know why... everything like that...

then went for KTV at Kbox at Lot 1 (Choa Chu Kang), there's a promotion on tuesday, that is Gent's Night... however it's really much more with than expected when the bill comes.. next time I won't be going.. well... quite enjoyable, I got to sing a lot (but without the mic 0_0 , but never mind..) , we sang until about 1 am, and not forgeting to break the mic before leaving 0_0 (no lah... accidentedly broke it, don't know they will ask us to pay or not :P)

a good friend of mine, wei xiang, went to NS today.. sad..

met my FYP group friends (or should i say half of my ex FYP group..) , we met west mall to have dinner at 8pm.. then went for a drink at happy cup... had a good chat on what we doing now.. and our future plans.. quite happy to see everyone fine.. except that everyone is complaining that they have no money.. :D , cause everyone cannot find a job... as for me, I don't intend to find one... what for work now when you can work for the rest of your life? moreover, I got things need to learn and do before going NS..

after the drink, we went jihao's house for a mahjong session.. we played from 11+pm to around 3.30am.. actually, this is the first time I play mahjong until so "Early" .. I was the big winner, won about $3+ (but too bad, we didn't bet real money).. jihao drove us home after that... reach home around 4am, then slept around 5am..

14/06/2003, Saturday

basically slept the whole day.. except wake up for lunch.. it was 7pm when I actually wake up... my family suggested to go pasir panjang food centre, to have dinner, to celebrate father's day.. we had some seafood, rojak, chicken wings etc. for dinner.. the seafood there is quite good (The price also quite ex lor...), but still cannot fight with those of Newton food centre... after that, we went home, then my sister sugested to go for midnight show... alamak... so we went for movie at PS, we watched "the In-Laws", quite a funny romance comedy, worth to watch..

10/06/2003, Tuesday

1 friend (zhenrong) gone to NS today... how I hope I could be enlisted early like them, then I don't need to worry so much... (mostly about money).. haiz... what to do? life have to go on... 1 gone, 2 more to go in this week... think I will stay at home often in the weeks to come.. met the rest of my usual gang for a movie, Confidence, a NC-16 show, a very vulgar show about a plot to cheat money from someone... bo bian, no show to see liao...

11/06/2003, Wednesday

stayed at home.. watch TV, eat, sleep, surf... nothing special...

12/06/2003, Thursday

another friend, sebas, went to NS today..

went out with boon kiat (BK) alone.. because the rest don't wish to come out.. we had lunch, then went for a movie at cineleisure, it's Phone Booth, a lot of people says it's not a good movie, but still give it a try... actually it's not bad lah... the plot is quite unique, a man trapped in a phone booth, because he is threatened by a sniper on the phone, the motive is to let him tell the truth to his wife... personally, I think the sniper is really eat ful liao, nothing to do... a very busybody, got so much time to threaten and kill people... although his intention is quite good lah... to let people tell the truth...

after movie, he went to look for his friend, then we went for dinner at wheellock place burger king... had a good chat, and a quite meaningful 1, we talk about how's our life recently, about views on friends, BGR and what type of girls we like...

07/06/2003, Saturday

met liang and sebas at clementi early in the morning.. yawn.. my gang is planning to go to spa.. (luxury right?)... don't misunderstand.. the spa is not at clementi, we meet there to take a super long bus ride to roxy square, a shopping centre opposite parkway parade, the following are the details of the spa

Name of shop: Hot Spa
Venue: Roxy Square, third floor, across the carpark
Cost: $59nett, ala carte buffet meals + facilities + massage, $39nett without massage
facilities includes spa, movie room, suana, steam room, gym, relaxing corner
PS: I think the spa is meant for males only...



so we reach around 12.30pm, and had lunch there.. by the way, it's eat-all-you can... but there's only 2 main course everyday (we had fried kway teow and seafood soup that day) , while waitng for others to arrive after their SAT test after they reach and we have finish our meals, we went on to change our cloths and went straight to spa... the water is quite hot, but very shiok... quite a luxury, once in a while... then we went to the steam room.. but didn't tried the suana... we dried ourselves after that, and went out for snacks (toasted bread with tuna, kaya or luncheon meat)... then we went for movie, while waiting for our massage (need to book)...

the massage is really an eye opener... the person massage you from tip to toe, from back to front.. almost your whole body, except your private parts, of course, and of course there is no special service (you know what I'm talking)... and sometimes she grab and stretch your whole body, and also crunch your fingers and toes.. I a bit scare she will break my bones.. however, I feel great after the massage... really worth the money for a 45 minutes massage... then we had dinner there also... and went home after a walking a round at parkway parade

04/06/2003, Wednesday, Dragon Boat Festival (Duan Wu Jie)

yeah.. today is duan wu jie.. the time when we eat one of my favourite food, rice dumpling.. hohohoho.. while there is so many new varieties of rice dumplings nowadays, I prefer traditional made rice dumplings, especially nyona rice dumpling... but this year I got a bit sian about rice dumplings liao. because I had been eating them for days, at least 2 per day.. sometimes it even substitute my meals...

morning went to ah ma's (grandmother) house to pray to ancestors, and had home-cooked lunch there... it had been months since my last home-cooked lunch... because my mother don't cook at home nowadays... there's a saying says "There's no food greater than home-cooked food", I agree with that.. so friend, be grateful if you have home-cooked meals everyday..

05/06/2003, Thursday

went to Lido to meet Sebas to watch Finding Nemo in the afternoon... the show was very funny, and the animation was very good (much better than Monster Inc), although the plot is quite typical (a clown fish father looking for his son in the ocean).. went to The Heeren after that to listen to some music and look around for the cap I want.. but in the end didn't find any .. hehe.. but I found a new mouse pad meant for optical mouse, quite a new dicovery.... now my cursor movement is much smoother

06/06/2003, Friday

went to IMM to meet xiang and sebas, for some shopping of their NS stuff.. then went for dinner.. then we begin talking our childhood, but don't know why end up talking about Singapore Government, I don't have a stand about this matter, you can say me is undecisive or what lah.. but the answer of this matter is not an yes or no.. but I do totally agree that SIngaporeans has no freedom to voice out their views in public.. for example, you protest on the roads, then you got caught immediately, while this is not the case in other countries... well, this is my point of view lah.. so how you think about this matter? leave a comment!

28/05/2003, Wednesday & 29/05/2003, Thursday

stayed at home for 2 days, and do the usual stuff, surf net, download stuff, watch TV, sleep, eat, help my mama with some things, and stare in the air (haha...), downloaded some songs and MV of SHIN band (an all-rounded taiwanese rock band), their songs is quite good, and also can sing their songs to fa xie and throw away your worries... don't believe? try singing lah!

still can't find a cap i want, and lazy to go out (partly because i have not much money left also.. haha...)

30/05/2003, Friday

met my usual gang (ying liang, wei xiang, sebas, zhenrong) for movie at PS, and they are late again -_-" and it's very late, about 1 to 2 hours late! why everytime like that? we watched the movie, "What A Girl Wants", it's a romantic and sweet comedy, it's a great show, the plot is good, the actors are good, the girl is sweet also (hehe...) the movie is about it's about a US girl going to UK to find her long-lost father... and encounter a lot of crazy things during the stay at UK....

we went to the food court there for dinner, I had beef noodles there, the beef meet is really soft and tasty with the noddles and sauce, give it a try next time you go there!

31/05/2003, Saturday

went back to SP in the morning for some club matters.. (in case you don't know, I was an active member of SP Current Affairs & Debating Club)

then met 2 of my primary school friends (wei sheng and wen cai) for movie at Lido around 4pm, we went to takashimaya yoshinoya for dinner before movie, the whole orchard road is crowded, maybe because Sinagpore had been removed from WHO* SARS*-affected area name list, in the end, we have to face the wall to have dinner (pathetic, right?)... after dinner and look look see see here and there, we went to Lido to watch "Bruce Almighty"... it's a comedy by Jim Carrey, a very funny and interesting comedy, and also meaningful in some way, "why curse and swear the God, when the problem lies in you?"

01/06/2003, Sunday

finally used up my money in the bank, bo bian.. i have to "yin zhe tou pi" (make hard my head skin) to borrow money from my mama.. met my usual gang at liang's house for mahjong, this time I didn't lose much.. only about $4...

after mahjong, xiang drove us (in a car, of course) to turf city to look for boon boon, and have dinner... we headed for home after that...
