Chevrons

Camaraderie: friendship and thrust within people. - from a real-life comprehension exercise

Wrong in so many ways.

Anyway I had my chalet for the past 60 hours. It was great! Thanks for coming, the invited!

Thanks to Dan for doing most of the BBQing.
Thanks to Hanom and Yoyo [a.k.a. JoJo] for buying snacks no one ate. Haha.
Thanks to A'an and guest for bringing cards.
Thanks to Baba for updating me on informasi terkini, and Hirman for coming along.
Thanks to Atikk for the Bau-Eh song in fifteen different genres.
And thanks to Dayah for the marshmallows.

Thanks to my beloved for ikuting my every perintah while I basically sat around like a princess.

Hope you all had as much fun as I did! It was fantastico! [A far cry from my two previous chalets.] We have to do it again next year, insya-Allah.

The Chevrons is a great place to have a nice, private chalet. The only problem is the non-view. But everything else is perfect. Free aircon, free phone calls, free parking, free mosquito coils! Gorgeous pool, sheltered pit! Too bad there was a Chinese wedding reception next door, which meant Ah-Lians squealing outside and drinking.

Okay, I'm off! We extended the car rental another day. Hehe! But now we have nowhere to go.

"The night is darkest just before the dawn"

Yesterday I was one of the first few people in Pasir Ris to legally watch The Dark Knight. It was great! Intense and dark and painful, etc. The scars on Joker's face are eeewww. And he never told the real story behind the scars. Just many different versions. Oh, it's a really long movie, by the way. At least two hours long. So be prepared.

We tried the fare at the cafe and it's not bad. They're generous with the amount of cheese given, and the cheese is yummy too!

Plus I learnt that XL is not my popcorn size.

nEbO

I am now a nEbO member, totals!!! You know what it means, mostly? $6 movie tickets on weekdays, $8 on weekends! Okay, so I already have $6 movie tickets on all weekdays, but whatever, I'll save $2.50 per ticket on weekends! Hebattt!

We caught Hellboy 2: The Golden Army the other day. Fantastico! I didn't watch the first one, actually. But whatever I caught that day was great! Ohyeah we also watched Hancock, which was alright ajer cos I don't like the ending. Haha. I think they should have ended up together. Plus, I don't get why she dresses so trampy-hot just to go meet Hancock. ???

I'm becoming a regular at Coffee Bean E!Hub! Haha. Thank God we don't get fired for disloyalty. Sorry, my employer company, but their cakes are waaaay better, at a lower price too! Today it was the warm chocolate cake which was all that and more. Yummmm. But my all-time favourite is still the Homestyle Carrot Cake. Khai doesn't like it though, he can taste the cinnamon in it. I *heart* cinnamon. Anyway we're gonna try out all the cakes and decide which tastes best. Haha! Aku giler, and I'm so gonna meletup of fatness from my new alliance with CBTL.

Ohyes today was Commencement but it didn't start out so great because I didn't have breakfast, and you know I can't live without breakfast. When I finally approached the buffet, I only had a piece of cake and two breaded prawns. :P Bings. But it was great catching up with the rest of the Chem peeps again. Yes, Nat and I are in the minority, the rest are all guys!

Anyways. Yea that's it. Aku lapar. Goodbye.

Life's like that

Hanom and I met up with Dodol today. He is STILL the same! We had dinner at ZamZam, where Dodol and I had to finish half of Hanom's yummy murtabak. Then chilled at SB-BG.

Going out with Dodol reminds me of simpler times, days when I had nothing better to do than to while away my hours at BC, watching Alfie work. Nights lepaking at Starbuckses and the bazaar at Geylang. Going out at the drop of a hat.

Well, it was fun. But life's not like that anymore. Not for me.

Today I parked at Kampong Glam Cafe as usual and, like before, the pakciks were making lots of unwelcome noise at me. I ignored them. I hate them. They should sadar diri a bit.

Bye bye Studio 1!

  In 2018, I was heading to Zumba class when I saw "The Brass Barre" printed on the directory of the same building. Immediately in...
