Sunday...

todae's the first dae of Chinese New Year!
Hereby, I wish everyone 新年快乐，万事如意!!!
Last night, we had a smashing time with the steamboat reunion dinner at my place....abt 20+ of us NOC students came over to my place....
the night earlier, on Fri, I had gone to buy all the steamboat food after work with a few of my housemates....yesterday afternoon, we put up the decor and set up the steamboat equipment.....we had 1 steamboat and 3 or 4 rice cookers....and it worked reali well!
I had so much to eat i felt like i was bursting!!! and all of us cldn't finish the food....hahaz.... =p

i had a great time talking to all my frens....and the reunion dinner allowed me to further narrow the gap, or rather, further improved the bonds between me and a few friends from my batch whom i interact with on a less frequent basis as compared to some others....
after dinner, we hung out and like a networking event, people went arnd mingling with one another, and later on, 5-6 of them even came into my room and started making themselves comfortable on my bed and my desk...hahaz...and we started chatting lor....very nice.... =)

after dat, we went downstairs to begin our movie screening cum gambling session....
i didn't play mahjong last nite....i'm juz an amateur and didn't want to slow down their play last nite...hahaz....so i was watching the movie we downloaded first....
it's those typical HK CNY show....some mahjong show...and it's a comedy.... =)
luffed till my stomach was aching.....hahahahaz....

after dat, we begun the blackjack session i was waiting for all nite...hahaz.....and u noe wat, it's the first time i was playing in USD! hahahahaz!
and we didn't use cash u noe....
we had chips! hahahaz.....Las Vegas style.....someone brought chips....reali professional one....
and we bought the chips to gamble....hahaz...
after a few hrs....i won US$3....hahahaz....not bad lah, considering dat i don usually win every yr..... =p

a very fun evening....and we did the best we cld to make it feel like home.....feel like we're in Singapore....
i'm sure all my loved ones in Singapore had had a much better time though! =p
nvm, CNY 2008! i'll be there to enjoy and celebrate with everyone....hehez....

i slept barely 2 hrs last nite....tis morning, i woke up at 5.30 and went to the airport to see my fren off....
he's one of my closest frens here.....
but he has decided to go back.....and i felt that it's best dat he returns to Singapore to rest and recover....
we'll see him again in July!
take care bro! and pls, show me the kind of fighting spirit, the kind of energy level, enthusiasm and strength u alwaiz had.....
when i see u again, i wan to see the old u....the you who would lead many of us with ur perseverance, the you who would alwaiz argue fiercely with me when we talk abt Singapore's politics....the you who would alwaiz look for me as ur drinking buddy, the you who shared ur personal feelings with me....the you who harboured so high expectations of urself and of those arnd u.....
the you whom i treated as a bro.....

u prolly wun be reading tis since u don hav my blog add.....
but over here, all of us wan to see u back to ur old self again....so, don let us down and don forget dat u gotta prepare to go to the airport to fetch some of us when we return!!!

i tink it's normal, cos i share the same sentiments too....and especially during tis festive season, i reali reali miss Singapore, my family and my closest frens even more....
