saturday...
relatively uneventful...
save for the wee hour chat with Wil da man...
debating about Xiaxue...
and trying to smoke him that i read Freud...
which i did...
but dont understand anything of...
finished up my 20 page essay...
freaking glad...
but there's still a presentation coming up...
and of coz...
major editing to be done....
before the deadline which is about 2 weeks away...
not worried...
but just sad that i'll probably get a B for this module...
a grade that is really bad for USP...
my 2 short essays which weighed 20% each got B+s...
dunnoe whether or not to be glad...
coz i saw Arts students with B-s...
family picked me up for lao beijing...
which was good...
especially the peking duck and the dumplings...
and except the popiah which cost us a freaking 30 bucks for a bowl of turnip...
had a great time...
dinners with them are never boring...
they just crack me up so much...
until my bro and i started debating whether the fluid in the xiao long bao is a juice or soup...
then i really wanted to strangle him...

sunday...
woke up really late...
had lunch then made my way down to ECP...
okok...
my dad sent me la...
wind was pretty good...
went for a few runs on the MOD....
before passing it to the guy...
and borrowing Mr Tan's formula to try it out...
my first time on a formula really...
so freaking different...
so scary...
supposed to be easier to handle really...
but it wasn't...
i must be really bad...
and i kinda tore a hole in his 7m sail...
coz i put it on my head as i always do with my MOD...
and it just went through...
man...
damn paiseh..
and damn scared la...
i felt so bad about it...
until he told me he bought that sail for 50 bucks..
very brittle...
so he expected it....
he even managed to guess how i broke it...
oh well...
samuel chng was at the beach too...
so happy to see him...
he saw the guy on my sail...
and thought for a moment that i was surfing topless...
IN YOUR DREAMS...
but Sam no more abs liaoz...
how can i have a pretend bf with NO ABS!?!?!
("pretend bf": refer to Thailand 12.03...)
we reckon that the army cookhouse has been feeding him well...
but we're setting a dinner some day soon in NUS...
apparently his camp is quite near...
Guy and i was supposed to meet up with his pri sch friend visiting from Indonesia..
but friend wanted to watch a movie...
so dinner was postponed i guess...
for them at least...
dropped by Peninsular Plaza to check out guitars for his club...
then went to eat Carl's Jr...
coz i had been having this terrible craving...
a low carb Western Cheeseburger...
yummilicious...
love their Iced Tea too...
think the guy has mastered the optimal amount of syrup to put inside the drink already...
bought a packet of Onion Rings to go...
which was cool really...
they're not like the BK kind...
where all of them are of the same size...
and yes viv, some of them are like bangles...
walked over to the Esplanade..
and being the cheapskate that i was...
sat in at the outdoor performance area...
which is like the best thing on earth...
coz it is Free Of Charge...
good music....
and FOC...
did i already say FOC?
there was this group performing...
4 people...
all have great voices...
2 guitars...
which are semi-acoustics....
according to the guy...
but great songs...
and they were very entertaining...


sunset at the Padang...


and i think the guy looks slightly gay with my bag...
and no...
he wasn't posing for the photo...
he was trying to best express his impatience and "what-the-hell-are-you-doing?"...
whenever i whip out my camera for shots...
not that i am pro-blogger...
must take photo of everything...
but the sunset nice mah...
though i cheated and saturated the photo so that you can see the colours...
and it's nice to have photos to back up things you say sometimes...


the performance at the Esplanade...

it was a good weekend..
though i felt utterly guilty about not working hard enough...
as such...
i will not post anymore accounts-of-the-day...
friday was too cool to pass on...
and sunday marked my first time on a formula board
and putting my head THROUGH a sail like that...
so i HAD to...
bleah...
