Freak goal and Childish players ....

Talk abt freak goal, Robben tot he scored a goal...so did the rest of the Real Madrid players... but it turned out it was offside. So while the Getafe players were resetting and moving the ball forward... the Real Madrid players were still celebrating at the sidelines... how cool is that !!



Outta 11 players, only 3 were on the field... wtf...

Childish people dun win championships... |||

Yum Cha 25022008

Went to Yum Cha at Chinatown for high tea... actually lunch and dinner... lunner ?? wahahaha


Anyway Weijian was late... so we decided to help ourselves to the food first. There were Yi Fei (aka the dog lover), Songlin, Weishun and me.

The Food


The People


Anyway after Weijian came, it was the usual "Mocking Hoo Yi Fei" sessions, as shown here:



To recall a little, Mr Hoo Yi Fei is the clown aka dog lover of the gang. Wanna know y gotta ask him personally... kekeke But somehow these gang of peeps just like to disturb him... hahaha (I good person... I never disturb him wor.... hahaha)

A devils' accomplice is still better than the devils themselves man.... hee

---------------------------------------------------------

After Dim Sum, we continued our journey to chinatown area to look for air tix to frankfurt. Yes, we are gonna compare prices with the NATAS fair this week so that we could get the best bargain man... hahaha


On a side note, chanced upon this stall at Pearl's Center. Notice the title of the goods they are selling doesnt really match the pieces on the stores. Winter wear and gowns ?? I rest my case... hahaha

Wine Appreciation Course

Just went for a "Wine Appreciation course" on Saturaday in NTU.

Haha... seems and turned out quite well the course... seldom do one get "high" or tipsy while taking a course or something... hahaha

The course primarily focus on how to appreciate wine and finding the tyep of flavours that one would prefer. Of course, it adds an additional "class" to know how to drink and appraise wine lah... heh

Got to try a few of the Reds and Whites:

1)Sauvignon Blanc (White)


2)Chardonnay (White)


3)Shiraz (Red)


4)Merlot (Red)


5)Cabernot Sauvignon (Red)


If you ask me, I personally prefer Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon for white and red wines respectively.

On a lighter note, I got to know new frens there too !!

So peeps, one of the days, come over my house and we drink wine yeah !!! Or we could go wine cellars for some chilling out man...

------------------------------------------------------------

I really think I should stop drinking in Boat Quay man... although I went only like 2 times with some frens.

First, I tink that I am just not really comfortable in the environment. It seems like the whole place is for lao beng lidat... with all the xiao mei mei bartenders and waitresses. Granted, some of these gals are quite pretty and sweet, but watching them get rubbed by men just doesnt turn me on leh...

Second, I seem to have a different taste in terms of appreciating the female species. And one fren kept pushing waitresses to me which I feel not really comfortable.

Third, I think my faces give pple the wrong impression that I am naive and gullible. Simpley becos I have a boy boy face, doesnt necessary mean I dunno wats going on and how to assess pple... 8) Perhaps such a face do keep me at a distance from many "unwanted" distractions (Finally found something good abt my boyish looks).

Oh and finally, drinking beer gives me a belly and I am already having a real hard time trying to smoothen my tummy... hahaha and beer makes me nauseous when I drink too much... |||

So in conclusion, this kinda lifestyle gotta change arh...

So less beer and more wine... less play and more studies !!

Gambling part II

And continuing my previous post,

urgh... enuff said...

Learnt a big lesson today... tt is never... never to trust ppl so easily...

Gambling and lending money....

Talk about money... I still remember someone owing me some money for like 3 yrs already. Well, it's not really the amount of money that is important. And it's the act of borrowing and not returning that is most uncalled for.


First of all, I decided to write this blog after these past few weeks of anti-gambling addiction thingy going on the TVs. Then it came to me that this person hasnt changed a bit since he borrowed money from. He is still gambling heavily and it seems like a neverending snowball...

Oh well... it's easy for us pple to say "No money then dun gamble lah"... but when one is on an addiction... one is no longer sensible...


Perhaps I shouldnt have lent him the money in the first place... I shouldnt be a devil's advocate in stimulating his addiction...

Oh well... I can only pray that he is not as addicted as I think he is...

Reflections on being "EMO"

Was reflecting to keet yesterday when staying at his home after mahjong, that dunno y I was a little "emo" these past few days...

Dunno issit becos of the hype over Valentine's day or just me having an unusual round of PMS...

Perhaps it's a combi of both... seems like Valentine's Day I am the only "loser" who had to stay in school diligently for lectures just becos I dun have a proper date. And it seems like everyone is very busy on tt day... whether izzit with their lovers... "budding" loves... or "targets"... hahaha

Guess wat , I skipped school to accompany some frens and then decided to drink with my fren at night... u got it peeps... 3 lonely guys... at a pub drinking... sad ... sad... sad...

In fact, I tink e feeling was getting me "desperate" then. But I tink I really sorted out my tots today ... that is sometimes these kinda thingy is really "sui yuan" (follow destiny) and it's not like I want it I can have it. In fact, I shouldnt be trying so hard to look for something that is so hard to get at this stage in my life.

And besides, my focus for the yr should be on getting my career going... and not this kinda lovey-dovey distractions.

I think it's just me thinking too much at the end of the day...

Oh well... perhaps LJ wasnt far-fetched when he said I couldnt really leave myself from the notion of getting into a r/s... but I will and I must now... for the good of myself...

That is I am supposed to study hard, rest as much as possible, and then cheong for my career (aka interviews) !!

Wish me luck peeps !!

An Eventful Chu 3 !!!

Okay... I really seldom gamble on the mahjiong table, let alone play blackjack ... haha And I played in-between too with my bbal frens from NTU.

Okay let's start with the afternoon mahjiong session with my best pals at Grace's place. Am I suay or am I really heng ?? I gamed with "十三一" with "自摸".


For peeps who dun play mj, this combination of gaming is damn rare simply becos it is so messy. That is y usually when ppl game with it during new yr, pple will say he is suay... damn suay... but I feel fine lah... it's just a game yeah... for me I always gamble with a "losing cap" in my mind, so tt I wont feel so sad if I lost and I feel much much better if I win regardless of the amount !! Haha

Chang said I am "wang" lately... haha I rather I "wang" in my studies, career and love than gambling lah... hahaha

After the mj session, went to Weishun's place to continue gambling. This time, I played blackjack and in-between. In-between was much more exciting becos one can lose or win a huge sum in an instant.


Basically, the shuffler opens 2 cards for each of the player. Then a jackpot was set-up with each player forking in an equal amount (say 20cents for us lah...). During a player's turn, he could bet on any amount till that in the jackpot. Then the shuffler will open a third card.



In case some of u peeps forget wats in-betwwen, here goes:

1) The third card runs between the first 2 cards, he wins the bet.



2) The third cards falls out of the range of the 2 cards, he loses the bet and has to forfeit it into the jackpot.



3) This is the best combi !! If the third card is of same value as either the first 2 cards, he loses double of his bet into the jackpot.



Haha, trust me on this, even when u have an Ace and King, still will have ppl get ace as the third card one !! In fact, at one time, the amount in the jackpot was around $20 man as 3 of us had to pay double !! Imagine 20 dollars from 20 cents !! haha

Anyway, I won a little too. So total I won some money lah... hey treat u guys drinks when we meet yeah...

Huat ah !!
