finally, a weekend worthy of an entry but i'm very tired and the delectable jake gyllenhaal is on tv so i'm gonna have to do this in point form.
saturday
was very happy to see nisa, noodle and nadia but had to be contented with partying with just 2 out of the 3 N's
i should fully acknowledge the fact that i am chinese and cannot hold my alcohol.
ming sam syaza : you missed out on some fun and alot of drinks haha
fran kellie : was extremely nice seeing you guys after so long.
sunday
woke up at 10.30am with no hangover. the last time i woke up at 10.30am or earlier was when i was 12.
someone randomly suggested we hop over to jb and i can't believe i agreed.
it would be my first time in jb. that's right, laugh all you want and get over it.
yeah ok you can stop laughing now.
so anyways i was pretty psyched, everyone had different versions of jb so it was easy to not heed any and just go with no preconceived notions.
well, now i have some notions of my own.
jb is not very clean, full of potholes, pretty damn dodgy and people lurrrrrve to stare.
yes i am very spoilt.
the first highlight of the trip was getting dvds, and get them we did.
first, we trooped to a hole in the wall shop and had to ask to see them dvds. we were then led into this tiny space behind the shop where all their wares were displayed on the walls. but this is not the end of our brave foray into piracy.
we were then asked if we had the time to see more dvds and to that, we all said yes.
someone was waiting outside the little shop and brought us 2 or 3 stories up to an unused store and with a press of a button, this heavy glass cabinet swung aside for us to step into a large room full of dvds. now this, ladies and gentlemen, is d-o-d-g-y.and now, for my second highlight of the trip. actually i should share this one with nads we gamely woke up in a jiffy to join us. after the dvd buying, we went to larkin in search of dunkin donuts.
now dunkin donuts was a big thing of my childhood and i never understood why singapore no longer has themso off we went and finally arrived at rickety larkin looking like it's going to fall apart at its seams.
me and nads entered the shop only to find............. all of 3 varieties left. most anticlimatic event in a damn long time.sucked up the disappointment, headed back to city square for a dinner of cheap kenny rogers and then it was off to danga bay with promises of ponies and carousel.
now i don't normally get lured and swayed so easily like i'm 5 but we do do things to see our special ones happy even if it means acquiesing to things you normally don't do.so there weren't any ponies or carousels. but it was all good
alright, time for me to crawl under the covers. i hope you voyeurs had as good a weekend as i did because it's back to the daily grind....
