Huijing's birthday chalet

In case you haven't read the latest news on Blogger, now the drafts you blog are automatically saved. So even if your browser crash, or your PC crash, or a black-out occurs, whatever you have written will not be turned to nothing. Timely update for you, isn't it? :D Now you know I will be expecting to see something, hehe. (Just kidding)

Last Friday was Huijing's chalet, and I spend the whole morning with YM queuing up at Donut Factory (Raffles City SC) to buy the 4 dozen donuts that Huijing had requested. Since she's the birthday girl, I don't mind doing the job, but little did I expect YM to have practically no comments. I've expected him to use this to suan Huijing, but he didn't, and he's even nice enough to tell Huijing that he thought of just giving the donuts FOC to her, when I was talking to Huijing about the cost. Dude, you're the man!

I went there at 11am, and even though the shop opens at 12.30pm, I'm already seeing a dozen plus people already in the line (and there's even markers set up to show people where to queue). To me, this is crazy. Before this, I have tried out the donut, but it's nothing really special, except for its fluffiness. YM even told me that he tried out all the flavours but only two out of about 10 are nice. Phil and ZY shared the same sentiments as me, which got them stunned when I told them the day before that I will be queuing up.

Thanks to a certain person (no sarcasm intended >.<), I end talking a lot to YM, and the topic is mostly on a certain person, although i also end up talking about myself and got some good pointers from YM, and YM also talks about himself in a (humanly) light, which enable me to know this seemingly omnipotent demi-god better.

After buying the donuts, we went to Funan IT Mall as YM told me there's a collectible toy shop over there (i'm interested in their PVC figures, and that's when YM pointed out that there's a lot of nude figures over there, and we end up talking about why anime culture love this sort of stuff), but sadly it's closed, for good. Next we went to Absolute Comix at Bugis, as YM knows I'm digging into PVC figures recently. Saw a lot of stuff there, though i have actually been there before a long time ago, but still worth a look. I was thinking of getting Kel a model tank for his b-dae present, and so we went back to City Hall and go to Marina Square. Over there at the toy shop, saw more PVC figures, and also saw some tank and ship models, which are already constructed and painted. However, YM pointed to me that Kel probably likes guns better, and eventually he came to the conclusion that Kel digs any sort of military stuff, as long as it's not from WWII. Which give me an inspiration of giving him Gundams (well, they are ultimately for military uses). well, no, it's a bad idea :P

With no further ideas on Kel's b-dae present, we went on to my house to slack around, since Huijing's chalet is at Changi. Lucky for us, Joy offer to give us a ride, as her dad was driving her there. When we reach there, I realise that without Joy's dad, YM and I will surely get lost...

We reach there too early and the three of us ended up the first three friends of the Birthday Girl to arrive. YM end up helping Huijing to chop potatoes, cut squids and marinate squids, while Joy and I "zho bo lan" and hang around. I did spend some (read: a lot) time figuring out the matrix question that Joy was planning to ask YM, which he refused as he had decided not to talk to Joy on that day (well sorry for not being of much help). By 8pm, Shuang, Kel and Ben arrived and we went on to eat some food. The food was catered and Huijing's dad was there to barbecue chicken wings. The fried rice and potato salad were pretty good, but the real killer are the chicken wings. Excellent stuff!!

But here's where it goes wrong, as Kel started to drink volka and offered some to YM, and after which i went to pour for myself. Early on, we mixed about 1/3 volka with other stuff. As time goes by, it becomes 1/2 and there's a time when we drink straight (neat). Wouldn't want to emphasize what we did, though we did nothing really. Kel was silent most of the time (heard from him the next day that if he open his mouth that time, vulgarities will start flying), YM was more spontaneous than ever with his talking, but really nothing serious since he's still very much sober. I was supposedly sober, though I can feel myself walking sideways, which i try to control. In the end, I drank the most, and the three of us finished two bottles of volka. I'm really sorry to Huijing for drinking so much that she din have the chance to taste the red ruby volka, but oh well. I also felt sorry for focusing so much on drinking that i forgot to eat much. Actually it's more like I regret not eating more, since the food is so good, haha

But perhaps the person i feel most sorry to is the one that I probably annoyed that day. I talked too much, even though I was very sober. It's just that being drunk gives me the courage to say stuff i will not say under normal situations. But i have to admit that I was too loud, and i didn't manage to control it. Even when I think about it now, it was full of regrets, not because of what I say, but because of how things turn out to be. I won't take back the words, since they are what I meant truthfully. But it seems that they were said at the wrong timing.

After which, more rubbish came out, where i keep saying sorry (this seems to be a trend whenever Im drunk, oh well). But even til today, I'm thankful to Joy's parents for sending me back, or else i will most likely get lost in Changi for the whole night, considering the state I'm in. I suppose no amount of words can express my gratitude. =D
