I'll try not to make this a long entry because I am still quite pissed with what happened the previous time... Short and sweet it will be.

Saturday: Sea rowing was average I guess, did the usual stuff. Only thing was that there wasn't enough Year 1s to fill up the boat. Sad case. Yeah. After rowing, a few of us guys hurried to PWD to wash up because we still had to report for work at Shangri-La Hotel. We were banqueteers. First ever experience serving people and clearing dishes and carrying food. It sure wasn't easy. With the help of group mates Sharil, Joanna and some China girl, it was quite alright the first night. Was involved in some DHL Annual Dinner and Dance. So that was it. First night over in quite a breeze. Island Ballroom settled.

After that, had supper with Odel and then caught a late movie, White Chicks... HAHAHAHA! Hilarious movie I must say! Let's go ShOpPiNg~* And man, who can forget Vannessa Carlton's A Thousand Miles after watching the show... If I could fall, into the sky... Hahahahaha~ Oh and did I mention that oysters were an aphrodiasiac? Lol... Went home after that and slept throughout.

Sunday: Worked at Shangri-La again. This time at Tower Ballroom. A wedding this time. Smaller place, lesser people, easier tasks. Grouped up with Fu Si, Kian Seng and some Myanmar girl. Job was simple. Learnt to carry the oval tray as well. At the end of the day, Vincent even taught us the use of the serving gear and said that it was something new we could learn. Yeah, 2 days passed quickly. Did spill some Tiger the day before but who cares. Alls well it ends well. Took a cab with Ling, Ronald and Jesline back home.

Working there was alright, except for some fucked up supervisors. Actually not very fucked up but yeah couldn't find a better adjective. Pay was ok, $7 an hour. Yah lah. Might consider going back there in the future, we'll see about that. Total earnings: $87.50. Done.

Monday: Missed the BCA exam because I was lazy to wake up thus I got an MC. Settled everything with Miss Chor so tomorrow will be the test at 10am. Trained with Shyam as well. Afterwhich, I went off with Yong Quan, Jesline and Li Nan to town to catch some dinner. Didn't know what's wrong with me, I kept shooting Jesline. Too bad for her then. =P After dinner, went to meet Odel to catch Resident Evil: Apocalypse at Plaza Singapura. Not bad lah the show, just that I find it quite stupid, the content that is. 3.5 upon 5 I guess.

After the movie, we went PK-ing around in Orchard. As for you guys who don't know what PK-ing is, it's Parkour, some sport which involves running around, climbing around and maybe even jumping from buildings to buildings. Yeah. Quite extreme I would say. We did Takashimaya, newbie style. But heck, we cleared it. =) Then went walking around, walked to Esplanade and rested. On the way there, explored some underground carparks, rested in front of monuments. Yeah. Then finally arrived at the bus stop in front of the NTUC Income building. Talked till bus 14 arrived and off home we went. Quite a day.

Slept till now lor. Could imagine what time I arrived home. Don't know if this would affect my biological clock and screw up my sleeping times but who cares. Oh yes, I think this entry would be considered short because I could have added more stuff to it but I'm lazy. Ah fuck it. Later.

Peace ouT.
