so it was taiwei's bday and i demanded that we had to eat 2day 'coz well, i'll be flying off to HK 2mr (whee!) and so we headed to...
some Holland V-ish coffeeshop for XO crab bee hoon
and while waiting for the food to arrive, we took pics! taiwei, for some inexplicable reason, does not look happy taking a pic with me.
so after a good smack on his thigh, he appears to be ecstatic. which is acceptable.
the whole gang! taken by a TKB (which stands for a rather derogatory "Tiong Kok Bu").
the local waitress had no clue how to use a camera and was terrified by the prospect of being asked to take a pic (really i had no idea someone could have a phobia with pressing a bloody button) and had to seek desperate aid from her foreign colleague, who seemed born to be a photo-taking waitress.
and singaporeans still complain foreign talent is taking over their livelihoods =.=
rabbit food... but surprisingly quite tasty heh
the real deal. e XO in the crab bee hoon is so strong you could get drunk eating it. which is a handy excuse. lol
and they took aeons with the bill. apparently mathematics is not within their talents, local or not. so while waiting, toon and i got busy.
and next we went to this chill out place to chillax. which was kinda ironic considering we had to fight a war to get a parking space. sigh if only malcolm's car was like the garrison then we could just roll over any car occupying the slot we fancy...
it's a very novel concept! basically you choose the ice cream flavour and a topping or two, and they will mash the whole thing up on this frozen slab of granite. it's kinda like the local aunty tossing ur rojak but a lot more glam.
although i must add that the ice cream itself left much to be desired and my strawberry cheesecake would hardly justify the price of $7.50 (B&J's leaves you in orgasmic heaven. this one doesn't). but i guess you pay for the novelty.
malcolm then attempted to fetch us home. and by us i mean 7 pple. in a car meant for 5. and considering we had kia liang and leonard, let's just euphemistically say it was a squeeze.
but it was funny cruising down town (where we eventually alighted and MRTed 'coz there really is no way to survive a ride like that all the way home without having to amputate our extremities due to the lack of blood circulation).
leonard attempted to interract with fellow drivers and pedestrians, waving about most randomly and even tried to honk the horn at some *ahem* ladies. he is a hazard. especially when he gets it into his head that Kallang MRT is a very happening night spot
and now i must go to bed. i'm flying off 2mr for HK until thurs (29 Nov - 4 Dec) and i haven't packed nor changed money. i think i'm kinda screwed. i will attempt to blog and upload pics periodically so i won't die of megabyte overload when i return so stay tuned!

Lazy Sunday Morning
Monday, November 24, 2008 at 12:25 AM
weather looked kinda alright so i headed down to safra with...
Freds!
but the sun was on and off so we ended up cam whoring lol. Freds was truly a slutty camwhory partner who is absolutely shameless and gives no damn that the whole world is staring. i am so proud *wipes a tear*
look at the boy:
makes my heart go fuzzy. and here we are (this is a picture post. and i'm lazy to type captions so pardon me):

Roger turns 20
Sunday, November 23, 2008 at 12:53 AM
ah hah! roger thought we wouldn't know it's his bday just because he didn't say but i am omniscient! trying to trick us into thinking it's some random ORD bbq or what. too bad!
krits is gleeful with his veges. *ugh*
i only just found out 2day the banana leaf is to prevent the stingray from sticking to the foil. i always thought it's for flavour. lol
we have a new name for domestic help: archipaelagians. 'coz after all, they're either from an archipaelago north or south of us.
that's not how you roast marshmellows =.="
happy bday!
cake with babies!
and no pool side bday party is complete without a dunking so...
heh. he's slightly damp.

this is the SNL spoof with Justin Timberlake. Hilarious.
this is the one that makes my nose bleed.

there was a tad too much food 'coz teo yy has a nasty habit of going crazy when presented with the menu and order form
after some discussion of what to do with the surplus without having to pay the wastage charge...
he decided to dump the excess in a plastic he handily kept in his bag. i will upload the video of what we did to it later, once i figure out how to invert the damn thing. and that was after he rolled a sotong ball onto the floor and declared "oops! 1 down, 7 more to go!"
caught in the act!
we went to eat tau huey to wash down all the oil and i am not pleased at being seated in an alley
but we still must be glam despite the surroundings!
standing ovation
SOTF goes timbre
at 1:37 AM
okay it actually wasn't SOTF per se. more like danny, dom, david (who isn't even SOTF lol) and me. everyone's a D come to think of it. except me. hmm.
but i guess it was close enough. since the rest were like in the queue outside. so we technically did go to timbre haha. pity it was so crowded but since the others had more than enough fun at LSB (esp a certain feline creature who apparently had 20 years of heat unbottled 2day), it was my turn! ha!
food and booze *contented sigh*
Shirlyn & The Unexpected (at least i think that's what they're called) were awesome
i love my Erdinger Weiss
and my meat lol
uncle pek ah dui (really has a nice ring to it)
tai tai dom with his atas Chardonnay (which he, using his trained palette in wine appreciation, proclaimed as lousy 'coz it's house wine)

speak good english movement
Wednesday, November 5, 2008 at 9:14 PM
one of the top things i abhor is broken english.
having a poor command of the language because of a lack of education is excusable (although still not very tolerable) but purposely contorting the language should be made a crime.
let me qualify. most will agree that singlish is generally english ad lib. however there must be a limit to such augmentations.
for instance, i get very incensed when pple replace "me" with "mi". the "i" thoroughly affronts my linguistic sensibilities. there is no conceivable reason to do such a thing. it is not a contraction (which will justify the change since we all are lazy bums at heart) but rather a purposeful modification.
i also am outraged when pple use the word "chiu" instead of "you" or just simply "u". it is obviously done on purpose for "chiu" is longer than both alternatives. it sounds so god-awfully garishly cheena. it's as if these pple take pride in their cheena-ness, which really is unforgivable.
another example would be "de". being more sophisticated than the masses, i will intepret that as the french conjunction. but no, it comes actually from the chinese language. which isn't even used as it is supposed to be used in chinese.
grammatical errors are also typically very irritating. most are pardonable (although i have not a clue why anyone would encounter difficulties with english grammar) but phrases such as "i ish..." should just be banished to like mongolia.
i come across such vulgar specimens in like blogs and forums, which i happen to have the misfortune to view because my platoon mates are in a habit of visiting such sites (who can blame them given the ultimate monotony of camp life)
i usually take government propaganda with a sniff but now the "Speak Good English Movement" appears absolutely necessary.

Annals of the Dragon Lady
at 10:08 AM
Dear Diary,
it was a busy night, as usual. it is an occupational hazard being popular. being new to the region, i decided to establish some diplomatic ties with my envoys in tow.
so we met...
the koreans,
the arab,
the egyptians,
our special envoy to the west who has finally come back with the sutras,
and the erm, americans. (that's Ms USA btw, and frankly i think none can beat the asian beauty)
work always makes gong li a hungry gal and a hungry gong li is an angry gong li. thanks to globalisation, MacDonalds is everywhere so i hastened to order a great wall burger meal to satisfy my royal hunger pangs.
then my minions lost the key to the royal vault so being the ever resourceful empress, i had to pick the lock. those claws are more useful than just for scratching my boobies.
you have to be firm with the paparazzi. that is PR rule #1
you better believe it honey! C cup boobies
sorry i'm not 7-11ish 24/7. i'm not cheap.
follow the arrow boys!
contrary to popular belief, yes i am modest
it was finally time for the regal one to return to the palace and harry offered me a ride home on his broom. but after trying to get on, i had to decline as i realised i would be flashing my inner regions (like china's mongolia) to the lucky peasants down below and that was not acceptable.
gong li is a chaste woman (refer to previous pic for proof)
so i stood in line for a cab.
but the cabby couldn't resist my charm and sped off w/o picking me up
so i had to take a bloody bus since my sedan minions were on off.
so i undressed for bed when i reached the palatial grounds but still the paparazzi hounds me
looking most dishevelled after losing the photographers
and then my dear friend kylie minogue came to visit! such an inspiration as a breast cancer survivor. i look to her as my idol since my chances of breast cancer is quite high considering i have so much mammary surface area to grow tumours on.
oh and btw she's performing live here at the end of the month so don't forget to catch her!
~G'night folks!
standing ovation

Halloween 08
Saturday, November 1, 2008 at 2:33 PM
my long awaited event has finally arrived. halloween! my costume this year was rather erm unique and required quite a bit of preparation lol.
and after much hassle (including getting spotted by zul's dad), voila! this was the final product - gong li!
the wig is fucking warm and i had to air my head in the cab. and the cabby said "young men these days are so full of life" LOL!
haha i only have one ear hole so they had to hang the other earring on my hair!
the fab five!
my hand maidens for the night. i am after all the dead gong li after chow yun fatt poisoned me haha.
even a dead empress had to queue for chippy's =.="
haha being fed food. i seriously cannot grasp anything with all the claws
haha my train was so long my handmaidens had to hold it aloft or else i would have falled flat on my fake boobs (which were way too small! grr)
back at thumper, we cam whored with all the 98.7 DJs and friends! here's Rozz!
Gerard & friend
Desiree! omg she's gorgeous in this greek goddess get up whooo!
Soo's soo cute!! (haha pardon the pun. couldn't resist)
Jacq! she's so nice she gave us candy from her pumpkin!
plus all the random pple of the night!
east meets west!
gong li pruning her hair
gong li doing what she does best lol
haha wtf~
what a hellish combination
really had no clue which toilet to venture into
haha even peeing was so difficult
my home!
damn paparazzi
harry giving gong li a ride
then harry put gong li under the imperius curse and the roles were switched. (it isn't easy getting onto the bloody trishaw btw)
omg when we were like peddling around halfway, we heard a scuffle inside this shack and out popped a pinoy man, who apparently lives in there and is the night guard for the trishaws! he grabbed a fucking plankand was like (insert pinoy accent) "who ask you to take the trishaw?"
never before was gong li chastised and we ended up trying to manoeuvre the bloody contraption back to its place and all the while he was like "you take like tat?" OMFG...
haha you can't see gong li 'coz she's too high voltage she shocks the flash
