Where I speak with fervour.

Pitter Patter, it’s raining

It’s been aeons since I last updated and so many things have occured though many were insignificant.  I think I’ve unofficially retired from the clubbing scene.  The last time I went was with Terence to Zirca and he had a terrible hang over the morning after and vowed never to drink more than a glass of housepour ever again (like that will happen).  I don’t have the urge to go clubbing anymore and it just isn’t as fun as it used to be.

I’m currently holding an 8am to 5pm appointment, so I’ve been really free these past few weeks and this will continue all the way till September.  I can go out on weeknights while most of my poor peers are behind fences with barbed wire atop.  On Monday, I had dinner with Vernon, Xuehu and Terence at The Soup Spoon and some drinks at Starbaucks thereafter.  Terence was in a bad mood because he had to recourse and he wented to release his frustration.  Haha.  He’s still complaining about his Medical Officer.  I don’t think he’s going to stop until he gets posted out of his course.  Tuesday, I went to the movies with Jing Cheng, Carol and Kum Boon to watch The Taking of Pelham 123.  It’s the best show I’ve watched in these two months.  There seems to be a lack of quality films in the theatre this summer.  Yesterday, I met up with Vernon and Terence to keep Xuehu company while waiting for his bridges to return after the National Day Parade rehearsal so that he can dismantle them.  It’s quite retarded to think that he had to spend the whole day there just to assemble the bridges and dismantle them after the rehearsal.  We had ice cream and talked a whole lot of rubbish.  After that, Terence and I went to Vivocity to have dinner with Ian at Modestos.  His wonderful parents treated us.  We watched Transformers after dinner and Ian’s mum was so kind to send me home as the movie ended near midnight.  I think the movie was not as bad as I expected it to be, but I still insist that it is highly over-rated.  The plot is weak and the movie is only getting this much attention because of its huge budget, Megan Fox, people’s childhood memories of watching the Transformers cartoon and Steven Spielberg.

Today, I lazed around in the morning and got irritated by my Indian neighbours playing their Indian music and singing.  Do they think they’re in Bollywood?!  I celebrated Chia Hao’s birthday together with Wilson at Swensen’s and we had ice cream cake and ice cream.  I think I’m going to become obese soon.  I’ve been eating and munching without doing much exercise and this reminds me of the number of durians I ate on Friday.  I better start jogging every day.

There’s a thunderstorm going on just outside my window, yet I feel so calm and warm in my room.  I love it when it rains (of course only when I’m indoors).  This reminds me of that dreadful time when my tent was flooded due to a torrential downpour and I was completely drenched.  I think I’m being totally random.  I have put up a few photos in this post, the rest are on facebook.
