hello. yea. finally i'm back in the office agn and i can update on what happened to me this weekend. had been a fantastically hectic and tiring one which has absorbed all there is in me.
the christmas party in the office was quite fun. however was quite disappointed that the ppl in my department are all not very onz. they all jus did not wan to be involved in the games and stuffs. only interested in eating. bahh.. so i joined the others. whom i don't know at all. was quite weird actually. but was all in good fun. the directors were all letting loose and enjoying as well. was quite a sight for me cos the only thing i've seen from them was their overcast facial expression so far. had lamp chop, which was marvellously hard to chew down. i had to go to one corner.. and savagely used my hands to tear the meat apart. but one of my colleagues saw me and started to poke fun. but when he took his piece of lamb. ha... he knew it wasn't that funny anymore. ha..
cleaning up time. as one of the ns men.. it's our duty to help clean up. but they were so damn inefficient!! i think i was too used to working with council people last time. everything was like chop chop and ready to go. and it all also involved the fun factor. its funny how everything done with council involved the fun factor. they included stay back till the wee hours ON TOP of the gallery sewing up the banner.. cleaning up the rubbish after orientation. massive is an understatement for the amount of rubbish man. and i remember getting so exhausted i jus simply rolled down the slope from the rubbish chute to jacob ballas. but it was all so fun. you will have ppl to make fun off. ppl to laugh with. and everyone's so tired their brain is totally not working and they will perform or do super funny actions and say funny things.
yea... so after cleaning up. me n my partners decided to make a run for it. jus abandon everything after bringing them up and going off before the rest comes up to make us do more things. ha.. we went into the lift. some other ppl was there. so we were saying we haf to walk in strategic positions out of the lift to not let them spot us. but. ha... the doors of the lift open.. and the whole department was standing in front of the lift.. BAH.. we smiled and laughed with them and said merry christmas and all.. and we went off. haha. not looking back and ignoring any calls we hear... and jus headed straight for home!
nxt up i went to meet my council ppl. went to carrefour to buy some snacks and met xl to travel to eunos with her. tried the mcdonalds wrap chicken grill foldover thing or whatever u call it. woohoo~ kinda blew me away. fabulous~ the chicken was sooooo tender. like 10 times better den a mcChicken. took the train down to eunos. had a seat. so rare. and there was no old folks around me. so i dint haf to give up my seat. so rare agn. becos old folks likes to appear whenever i get a seat on the train and more often then not they end up standing right in my face! haha. so ya..
reached eunos. saw brandon aaron ernest. somethings has gotta be done about this punctuality thingy. i aint saying that i'm punctual. cos i have a penchant for being late as well. but its kinda getting outta hand man. haha. it used to be a joke that we gotta arrange something at 7 and tell ppl its at 6. but now! i fear that i've actually gonna be reality! becos the situation is exactly what it is. haaa....
shall stop here for a moment. gotta go check on my work 1st.
now it's after lunch. super sleepy! totally hate this kinda feeling. we proceeded to brandon's hse. we talked n talked. the mahjong gang jus got to work immediately. ha... and they jus played and played. to think that i was worried that there wun be enuff food to feed all of us. but suddenly!! its like an explosion of food! so so much! massive to be exact. i kinda regretted whacking all the sushi at first. was too full for the bee hoon and nuggets and other stuffs. and suddenly i feel that we are all becoming quite non- alcholic. and its the girls tat tend wants to drink more then the guys. haha. how weird.
we had so many bottles of liquor with us. really glad to meet up with them. makes me feel very carefree... nothing to worry about. and the best part is i can totally be myself and it jus feels so free. they know i'm a monkey and how i behave.. so i dun haf to 'behave', u get what i mean? and best of all was our 'poke fun of fushman session' he's the best man.... as in he takes all our shit.. cos he knows we're joking.. and he's ok with it... jus to provide us with the much needed laughters. the 'fire extingusher' and the 'puke on the floor while holding shit load of tissue paper' joke is still being used on almost all gatherings.. haa.
so drank n eat drank and eat... and woke up ultra early on christmas morning to go down to indoor stadium man.... the service was good.. all the christmas songs! and i love christmas songs. yea! and dance performance was good and the drama thingy was funny as well.. which sometimes makes me wonder.. if given a chance.. m i able to make something as good as that out. in my mind... i always tell myself tat, yea... i'm talented. i'm good. why not man. i can even do better. just that i haven been given a chance yet in many ways. ha.. yea i know sometimes u have to go and fight for these opportunities.. but there's also this phrase which says opportunity will come knocking on ur door~ so it will knock on mine~ so m i too cocky and too arrogant? or issit tat i excude a certain amount of confidence which makes me very sure of myself. i aint have the answer to this. i'll jus haf to find it out.
makes me think of the grad night dinner that i hosted and also the teachers day celebration both during j1.. and also my speech to get into council. haha. dunno how many of u guys actually remembered that. was really a good experience.. really fun. these short experiences lets u learn alot about yourself. and how u really are. hosting is fun. u guys shud try it sometimes too. and i still remember ros wanted to send my name in for hosting s'pore's version of wheel of fortune. hahha.. thankz for honouring me man ros.....
i was famished... dint eat anything from the night b4 and with the drinks in my stomach. was getting quite bad. after the service ended... when down to cityhall to grab some food. and went down to meet lili and her frenz to watch kung fu after eating~ actually dint really tok to her frenz so u can say i went down to meet her to watch the show. now comes another talking point. this is about everybody's sense of humour being very subjective. so..... what is funny... and what is not funny.. how lame can a joke go before it is truly defined as lame? so is there such a thing as high class funny? and low class funny? lemme try to categorize it.
Btw 2 CEOs 'i must say we shud haf signed this contract 10 years ago. its earning us both so much money!' '10 yrs ago, i haven even set up my company!' both continues with their hearty laughter for about 2 mins
Btw 2 Students 'i can't stand it anymore!' 'sit lah....' they stare at each other and continue with watever they were doing
so the 1st one is a high class joke.. and the 2nd one is a low class joke? it jus dawned onto me cos there have been very varying comments made on the movie 'kung gu hustle' some said it was bad, it was lame. some said it was a classic, very funny, genius. and i've been telling people jokes for as long as i can remember. and i often get very different kind of reaction too. sometimes is it uncool to actually laugh at a lame joke? so ppl refrain from laughing? and i still think i haven really mastered the art of joke telling. it's really a joy to be able to make someone laugh geniunely and make them feel happy. makes me feel kinda accomplished and achieved... and thru all this i can learn more about the person. by the way they laugh. but their reaction. yea. it's quite a mastery u know?
but i enjoyed the show. think lili did also. i laughed more den anyone else. i think that i can actually take in different kind of humour and understand them pretty well. which makes it sometimes easier for me to click with different sorta people. because u tend to feel more comfortable and more at ease with someone u can relate things to and laugh together with. went home after the movie. for my parent's anniversary dinner. was steamboat. yum. den after dinner i jus kinda realised i dint really slp the night before and i jus slpt.
planned to wake up at about 11 to go online and chat with my merry frenz on christmas night. but somehow, my plan kinda jus went totally hay wired!! i woke up at 3am!! and when i went online~~ to my horror~~ there's already no one to be seen there.. sighz.... and i cudden go back to bed anymore.. hung ard watching vidz and stuffs till about 5plus... n went to slp.. had to wake up at 9 to go down to sajc for soccer~ cool~ haven played with hans and gang for ages. but the little sleeping time that i got wasn't that cool.
was really fun man. kicking around. no pressure.. not like with my squad mates. sometimes u're scared u screw up and stuffs. den very paiseh.. but not with my this grp of clowns man.. and its really cool. doing all the stunts and all. and of cos we're nv short of clowns in the 24th team. laughter is almost guarenteed if u're playing with us. ended at about 2... headed down to AV for food. yet agn.. superb memories of that place of council term. we ordered alot.. think its the first time that we cudden finish the food on the table man. miraculous. by this time i was really kinda tired.. reached home at abt 4plus... and bathed and jus sat ard. because there's another program coming up. daph's bday party.
so tired but i was determined not to slp. i knew i wun wake up. so i hung on. and the 3 monkeys and lorraine travelled down to daph's place. and of cos by car courtesy of damina. this gang haven met up for a year. we ate n ate n drank and ate and talked. shuyun came much later.. haa.. we talk cock. and machine gun was still machine gun. daph was still shooting off words like nv before. and i'm telling u i can't match her even if i tried man. think everyone's still pretty much the same. raine's still the one making funny comments. and den loves to luff... and shuyun still the calm and composed person she is. maybe this gang shud hang out more.. its so comical when u put everyone together.
reached home at 12? yea. so tat's about it. my weekend. smiles. how did u think it was? haa.. anyway.. i was with my colleagues.. followed by my council frenz. and then my ex-classmates, den my family, and with the council guys, and den my sec sch grp of frenz. think it jus somehow kinda evened out real well. a big big thank you to ALL those who haf played a part in this christmas weekend of mine. it was so so tiring and hectic... but i had a wonderful time. whoever said that the christmas spirit was not like before now tat we're older.. haha.. . cheers to all!!!!
