Chapter 353: A whole new world

What have the world gotten into? Within 2 days, I have met 2 mentally unsound people in 2 different buses (1 each).. and those are the only 2 buses I took within these 2 days... Quite unlucky I have to say.

---

Friday: A public holiday. Went to take MRT to Serangoon station with sis and mum. Then we had a task at hand: To find a bus stop with bus 100. We looked around, found 2 bus stops, both without the bus 100 ... So, we gave up and decided to head to the interchange to take it.. And now, the interchange is empty, it looks demolished.. what?! Luckily, my sis is there to tell us that it might be inside NEX now... and she was right.

We took bus 100 all the way to Opposite Golden Mile Food Centre... only to find it under renovation till 23 Nov -.- What a wasted trip it must be... Nevertheless, we had the never-give-up spirit. We tried to scour around for any tailor services... We found one that says "sew rank", but they dont sew rank. I highly doubt if the person understands the sign he put up. Anyways, he referred us to a shop at block 15, which is behind the post office. Time to treasure hunt for it.

So we navigated and located that place. True enough, tailor services provided. So I gave him my 2 sets of no. 3 uniforms and ranks to sew. We then left to eat lunch at KFC nearby. After around 40 mins, we went back and collected the uniforms with the rank sewed on them. We then left for home taking the same bus. (How you go back is the opposite of how you came.)

---

In a lift. We pressed the button for 1st floor.
A neighbour asked my mum: 出去啊?
My mum answered yes, while my mind answered: 不是, 回家.
She continued: 两个孩子啊? (pointing to my sis and I)
My mum answered yes again, my mind answered: 不是, 三个.

---

After ordering food from a stall,
Vendor: 吃的啊?
My mum answered yes, while my mind answered: 不是, 喝的.

---

Q: When will one see light at the end of the tunnel?

Myths suggest that it is hope after a horrendous and difficult time.

But the truth says that a train is approaching, now run for your lives!

---

Saturday: Went for my first ever driving lesson (practical). Starting, there was alot of theory.. but after that, I got to try out the controls and devices of the car. The instructor told me a few stories, funny ones.

There was this random student who hopped into my instructor's car last time, to avoid a rain. That student was about to have a driving test soon (at that time). BUT he/she didnt know how to switch on the wipers ... It must have been many smooth-sailing practical lessons that didn't rain for him/her.

Tried moving forwards and backwards in a straight line.

Then moved round and round and round around the circuit. Tried changing gears from 1 to 2, vice versa, moving off and stopping. Stalled the engine thrice. Nevertheless, a good experience and a good 2 lessons. Feels funny to drive, weird to hold the wheel. haha.

Soon, it was all over. The next practical lessons are situated next Saturday. Hope its smooth-sailing as well.

Currently trying to learn (memorise) the lyrics of "Payphone" by Maroon 5. Maybe I will give the rap part a miss haha.

Chapter 352: Class Outing

Went back to camp for some work in the morning till afternoon timing. Details cannot be revealed due to security reasons.

Went back home to bathe and played computer awhile, before leaving home at 4pm. Jacquelyn told me to wait there (Botanic Gardens MRT) at 4.30pm for Teck Chuan and Nwe.. but they didnt appear to be able to turn up... furthermore, I reached that place at 5pm .. I was late, yet early. I waited, walked around, took a drink (Apple drink) till Binghui arrived at 5.30pm.. We then went to Jac's house together. After we reached, the sky decided to rain. What a nice timing we got there.

Soon, others arrived as well. Some people watched TV, while I'm playing Mahjong (without money as I come from a family with a humble background.) with 3 other friends. We also played cards later.. mainly daidi/big two.

We ordered Pizza delivery, as Mac didnt want to deliver to that address and KFC is too busy (overloaded with orders.) This is most probably because of the heavy rain outside.

In the end, Nwe and TC didnt showed up.

We then played the King's card with Black Label, and of course, poker cards.
This time round, it wasnt so serious, drunk rate decreased drastically.
We then took photos after that before leaving for home.

The following Saturdays will be busy for me.. because I have driving lessons all there... might be unable to attend any outings or whatsoever things.

Chapter 351: Fun

Friday: Went to camp as usual. Due to CAT1 status, the squadron games event is cancelled. So, I deposited my PT kit into my locker to avoid bringing it home. After that, Jianhui, Chih Siong and I took bus 9. CS alighted one stop before us to go home first. We then alighted one stop later to go to Eastpoint. We went up the lift to 3rd floor and went to the toilet there. Both the cubicles available were occupied. So, we went up 1 storey to the 4th floor to use the toilet there.

Here, both the available cubicles were available! So we went in to change into our civi attire. It is a tedious and challenging thing to do in the crammed toilet cubicle... nevertheless, after losing much sweat and hard work, we did it!

We then went down back to the first floor to fulfill our temptation - Long John Silvers.

While eating, Kenneth came to join us (not eating though). We then waited for CS to come, before leaving for the MRT. On the way, Darren Leong messaged me... asking me if I am free to celebrate Nich Khaw's birthday at 9pm... wa sian.. a last minute notice... I have no choice but to apologise for being unable to attend... Here, I am wishing him a happy birthday!

We took the train to Pasir Ris, then changed to bus 354? to get to Downtown East. We took some time, some navigating skills to get to our destination - Coasta Sands. Desmond, the birthday boy, handed us 150 dollars to get some drinks. So, we set off again to get some drinks. On the way, I saw Darren Tan with his family. So, I just waved at him.

We then went to Cheers. We bought 5 bottles of Coke, 1 bottle of Root Beer, and 30 cans of Tiger Beer. The cashier requested to check the IC to confirm that we're 18. We look young. We also bought 3 or 4 packets of ice haha. We then went back to the chalet carrying all above mentioned stuff - good physical training for the arms.

We then went on to BBQ, and eat the food. Anyway, Happy 21st Desmond Tan!

At around 1am, Desmond's friends came and they bought what we have been waiting for - poker cards... something that we left out.. A thought B will bring, B thought C will bring, C thought D will bring... In the end, we think thank thunk, he think, he thought, no one confirm. That's why we're cardless ....

They also brought some liquor along.. so we played the King's card. (finally I know the name of the game... I had played this game before in the last 17/10 outing without knowing the game name haha.)

Luckily, no one was drunk. So we went home using taxis.

I asked the taxi uncle if he knew where Rivervale Mall is... he told me yes he does... He ended up dropping me at Rivervale Plaza... I was like... ah screw it, I will walk home from there... Anyways, I was cabbing home with Kenneth and Raymond also.. I didn't want to extend their journey home.

Saturday: My mum's birthday. Had to reject Jefferson for asking me out because of that. The importance of mothers.

Ate KFC in the afternoon at Hougang Mall, and at Punggol at night for birthday celebration.

Chapter 350: Bus Ride

One fine day, when I was travelling home from camp. My bus broke down ... :X It is definitely utterly unlucky... it is not the first time mishap has struck my bus... it is cursed... it has to be. The 1st mishap last time was accident... and now, a breakdown... No wonder the bus came close to tortoise speed when nearing the bus stop... and then, we were all given a complimentary ticket to catch the next bus at a cost of $0.

I ended up taking the next bus home and reached home almost half an hour later... Haiz. What rotten luck this is...

Soccer: I woke up middle of the night to catch the Champions League match of Man Utd vs Cluj. I was shell-shocked when Cluj scored in 14 mins... I was like "not again..." Thankfully, luckily, they bought Van Persie, who scored twice! Both assisted by Wayne Rooney. They ended up winning 2-1.
Hope Rooney and RVP can play well together in future too and clinch the EPL title, and every other titles possible. Hopeful.

A: "How sure are you that you left the paper at the table?"
B: "75% sure."
A: "What happened to the other 25%?"
B: "Unsure lor."

Above is what happens regularly in our daily lives... people like/try to be funny and ask what happens to the other X%. This is how your answer should be, as retarded as the question sounds.
