Backtracking a little, the previous week was kinda busy with many activities and outings/gatherings. On the first day of the new year 2008, I met up with my ex-colleagues. We went to minds and it was fun, I totally lost my image lah, shouted so loud till got a bit off pitch. Heex..It was great time hanging out with them. Hope to meet up with them soon.
A very blur me thought that the New Year Eve fireworks display at Marina was scheduled to start at 9pm so me, Swee Ling and a group of new friends, who are actually Swee Ling's CCA-mates, went to settle down at the fireworks area at 8plus, a little before 9. Then XiaXia msged me say she saw on ST it was at 12. By 9plus, still nothing so we concluded that XiaXia's news was right. We sat down there gossiping, hoping that a miracle will happen, that they will release some before 12 too. All I can say is miracles don't happen too often. So some of us left at 10plus and I went to CWP to join my parents in the countdown instead. Missed the fireworks at Marina, but managed to join my parents in the Woodlands countdown event, catching fireworks with them and being with them on the very first second of the brand new year, it was definitely worth it.
With Swee Ling and her friends..fun people =)
The day after Fish Leong's concert, 5 of us went to celebrate XiaXia's birthday. HuaHua suggested trying something new so we decided to be daring and and we went to a two-storeyed Egyptian restaurant at Haji Lane to try out. The ambience was not bad, kinda cozy, with all the lights being dimmed and only fans operating. The guy who served us was cute in the funny sense, very cordial, trying to explain to us what's on the menu and recommending to us how the food should be mixed and matched to taste nice. As for the food mah, hmmm, not bad lah, spicy type. It's a once in a lifetime experience, just once will do, if you get what I mean. Heex..
