The Christmas Eve Entry

It's christmas eve now but i've still gota go down to the yard to get some stuff done.
hopefully i can finish most of the stuff by 2pm. den i'll juz scoot home.

gona b gng for mn mass at smota. gona b there like at 1030 to get a seat so i can watch the pageant, listen to the carols and den mass.

for those who have read abt the girl who wow-ed me, here's a little update.
she's not so into me. so it's pretty much over now.
but i'm not like superly sad coz in some ways, i kinda guessed dat's how she feels.
i will b lying if i were to say dat i didn't hope it'll work out.

well... xmas is here. and dat's a good reason to be happy abt and to celebrate.
and with the coming new year, i've decided to help out in st iggy's rciy.
hopefully dat'll kinda kickstart my spiritual life a little bit.
it'll prolly b a struggle in the beginning but i hope i can commit and contribute.

somehow this xmas has been a inspirational one.
decided to help out in rciy, went to town JUST to write xmas cards. good frens all know dat i dun write cards all along. lol.
but i think somehow this year, i wana let them know how grateful i am to have them as my frens.
so tho every card might read ALMOST the same, there's still the little differences.
but i most definitely mean every word i say.

for those who do not end up getting a card from me, it doesn't mean ur frenship means nothing.
juz dat i run out of energy n cards liao. hehe...

so for all my frens out there who i prolly wun get to meet during xmas, here's wishing u a blessed and merry christmas!

Beauty, Beast and the Birthday Boy

It was quite a weekend.

caught wild rice's beauty and the beast on fri nite w ben, jacq and andrea.
the show was fantastic. super funny and entertaining.
worth every cent paid. quite unlike victor/victoria.
and even b4 the show started, there was drama liao.

while gng to pick up jacq n andrea from work, i realized i had forgotten the tix.
cant freaking believe it still dat i had forgetten them.
it was 6.45pm when i realized it and the show was to start at 7.30pm.

rushed like mad back home to grab the tix n rushed all the way back to drama centre.
reached the theatre at 7.40pm and thankfully the show started a little late and so i din miss much.
but i kinda spent the first 15mins trying to catch my breath.
note to self: do not buy row 1 seats on circle 2 at drama centre.

it was dinner time after the show and we went to geylang for beef horfun.
had quite a bit to eat and after dat, it was yonghe tau huay for dessert.
was super stuffed dat nite.

and the nite was nowhere near over coz i headed over to ivy's place for mj.
started at 2am and din end till almost 7am. played like 2 rounds i think. or 1 1/2. cant rem liao.
lost $9 dat nite.

got out of bed ard 1pm on sat and met ben n jacq at vivo to look for presents for the good friends.
walked ard, saw some stuff, bought some stuff.
and soon it was time to head to Rocks for john's bday dinner.
happy belated birthday john!
not even sure if he reads my blog. lol.

food there is quite good. the cod was a little dry. i din really like the super crispy skin on my trout. but i loved the meat.
john's medium rare steak was fantastic.
their truffle mash potato side was absolutely heaven.

after dinner, peter headed to sentosa for zoukout while fel was headed to ade's place to go for zoukout.
ben sent jacq home coz she wasn't feeling too well.
ewen n i went over to john's place to chill in his newly renovated room. and it looked great!
love his sink n shower as well as his cupboard. made me wish i had space like dat in my room.
prolly need a complete spring clean of my room to find new space. but dat might take me like 1 whole week to clean out.

sunday was nice n quiet as always (i think).
met up w jarrod n michelle for brunch. havent seen michelle since we last met up BEFORE jarrod left for melb.
brunch was at simply bread at guthrie hse. nice simple sandwiches there. yummers!

den i met up w ben to take a look at the stuff we're planning to get for jacq. but it din quite fit the criteria.
so it's the backup gifts for jacq then. also bought the present for john.
went over to ben's place to wrap them up b4 headed to holy cross w jacq for mass.

and i juz realized dat i had been out w ben n jacq for 3 days in a row. hahaha...
useless bit of interesting information.

back to work today... feeling kinda lazy still. trying to get the "engine" restarted n running again.
the boss has assigned me a project in sg. which means i prolly wun b travelling ard till at least feb.
hoping to finish most of the work by 3rd week of jan so i can go HK in feb. *crosses fingers*

and on a side note, i've kinda restarted my collection of my starwars lego.
kinda spent 1.5k on 3 sets in the last 3weeks.
awesome stuff but i need to find a place to keep them.
they're at peter's hse for now but i'm planning to bring them home this weekend.

it's now abt 2 weeks to christmas. cant wait.

The Undead Blog

It's alive!! It's alive!!

ok... i've only not posted for abt a mth. but it feels like so much longer.
a thousand apologies to the ppl who come here to look for a new entry only to find none.

well... nov seemed to have been a rather exciting month.
let's roughly list out wad's happened from 29 oct till now.

1) met someone who kinda wowed me on the first meeting. but most of u peeps who read my
blog know the story already. *fingers crossed*

2) away from work for a whole month - 1 week leave and 3 weeks of reservist.
went to bkk for a short weekend holiday during the 1 week leave.

3) bought the imperial star destroyer lego star wars collectors edition which cost me 720.

4) felt really super broke when i had like abt 100 in my wallet to last me for abt a week.
felt really super relieved when my ot came in today.

5) started going for my ipt training. finished 1 1/2 weeks, 2 1/2 more to go.

6) went to sentosa on the hari raya haji holiday to tan. got a decent tan (i think).
found a new nice hangout place - wavehouse. waaaaaaay better than cdm imo.
plus weds are 1-for-1 for EVERYTHING! food, drinks and surf.

7) celebrated jacq's and alex's bdays.

8) watched victor/victoria. it was alrite. not worth watching a 2nd time.

9) met up w the church girls group (now more like girls n partners) for dinner on haji also.
and also to celebrate bdays.

guess dat's all. but it was all goooooooooooooooooooooooooood.
sorry i'm too lazy to give details of everything. ask me if u kaypoh enough to wana know more.
