Pre-Bday

Coz i was gona sail off for a sea trial this monday, i gathered the usual sat gang to go have dinner and drinks at walas.
i also heard dat shirlyn is back from the US of A and we all know dat she plays w The Unxpected at walas on saturdays.

so we arrived at walas like abt 7.20 after parking at the hdb multi-storey carpark opp cold storage.
ben had some work to finish up so he n jacq arrived later.
guess it was a good thing as well coz the 5 of us - alex, ewen, fel, peter n i pretty much took up the whole table when our food arrived.
ben n jacq came after we had finished our mains.

the happy hour band was called velvet vendetta. pretty cool name i must say.
they play pretty heavy shit. but their sound is good.
and they are from hong kong and are playing at baybeats.
so i dun even need to go for baybeats, baybeats came to me... kekeke...

was kinda disappointed when shirlyn din start the 1st set but it soon all changed when she arrived to front the 2nd n 3rd sets.
of coz the booze n alcohol were flowing not non-stop, but at a decent rate.
before the 1st set, we had our own beers. i ordered silly saison which was never to be ordered again.
after the 1st set, we had a round of tequila shots and chicken wings n fries.
and after 2nd set, we had a round of jaegerbombs and i had a flaming lambo, courtesy of peter n duno who else. hahaha...

ben n jacq left after 2nd set coz ben had work to do.
the 5 of us stayed on.
i have to admit we got kinda high. i really seldom drink to this level coz i always dun drink enough or i drink too much till i fall asleep.
(ppl at my 30th bday will know.)

the 3 drivers among the 5 of us couldn't really drive. so we went to the coffeeshop to order some food n drinks to try to sober up a little
so one of us could at least try to drive. but dat din work. so decided to leave the van at the carpark since parking was free the next day.
and we decided to walk to clementi afer dat. hahaha...

we stopped by cold storage to get some water. and we walked. walked down holland ave, walked along the road towards ghim moh.
and fel decided dat she din want to walk anymore when we were near the junction of ghim moh n commonwealth ave west. so we shared a cab home.

ben n jacq got me a flattened beer bottle clock, which i now have to find a hook to hang it up, and a t-shirt which i like and will wear. kekeke...
wala wala also gave me a bday present - 17 free shots.
somehow they forgot to charge us for the tequila shots n jaegerbombs.
assuming they're $15 each, they saved me $255. dat's damn a lot la!

and i din notice it when i was signing for the bill.
i was looking out for stuff dat we din order rather than stuff dat they missed out.
so i was damn surprised when i saw the bill again when i was sober on sunday.
hahaha...

so dat was my pre-bday celebration.
fotos will b up when i get back. videos too. hahaha...
