need a break.
the weekend mid-autumn festival is finally over, was never a fan of mooncakes myself but i still got to chomp down dirt cheap mooncake as well as expensive hotel ones. never could tell the difference though. saturday was spent leisurely with work in the morning, few hours of reading in solitude at the library and mid-autumn celebration at ta2 in the late afternoon. for once theres an addition to the list of eligible bachelors i've been encouraged to consider. for the moment, instead of cixian aka hunkyjo aka muscleman, we have timothy tay on the list! i have no idea what gave these pple the idea but it amused me nonetheless.
-laughs- spent the evening hanging out with the J1 peeps and getting an insight to their gang. it's fun to be able to just sit ard, joke, fight over lanterns, prevent pple from blowing out our candles, askin innocent questions with evil motives..well, just relaxing and enjoying the company. the bottomline: it was a fun-filled night with lots of laughter, surprising discoveries and pomelos.
after less than 12hrs, i was back in ta2 again for sunday service. yiheng pulled a stunner on the service worship team when he accidentally overslept and lester had to cover for him last minute. thou shalt not scare pple anymore, esp early sunday morning where pple are still half awake and weak hearted. scoot off to lucky chinatown after church for a round of ktv-ing with kenny,daniel,sis,yomay and lydia. cixian, ruth and donny were supposed to be our kakis as well but ended up psk-ing us to sing with the mentus at the same location!
forced cixian to sing Tuo Diao as a form of punishment and tho he went along with it and seemed to really enjoy himself, he still tried to regain composure by telling us we all need counselling. haha! so much fun to sit ard on the dirty carpet, eat extremely overpriced chips, drinking ice honey out of vase-cups and singing songs at the top of our voices!
tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree...adjourn after the day's singing to the hong's hse for hong's curry chicken! tho its not salty enough, it still satisfied my month-long craving for nice curry. the relationship we have with the hongs still somehow amazes me considering we have no blood relation yet we can still shameless go to their house and leech on their curry. at the rate we are progressing, we might one day convince ourselves that we are indeed related in a parallel universe. played a few rounds of mahjong after dinner with them laughing at me for my lack of mahjong knowledge and game ethics. we concluded that the curry was drugged cos all 4 of us were saying stupid things, laughing maniacally over lame jokes and rolling all over the floor (actually its just me with the rolling but who's keeping record?).
anyhoo! i managed to win 1 game, 2games for my sister, 2games for ruth (i gave her the winning tile on the first win. roar!!) and zero games for lydia who laughed the loudest at me for my lack of mahjong knowledge.
-guffaws- to sum it up--> ktv, gd! dinner, yum! mahjong, wudi fun! so was my weekend good? hell yeah!
Useless fact of the day: I must remember to tell the ba chor mee auntie next time to not put meatballs in my mee. I hate meatballs. period.
