Haha I suddenly had the intention to put [translated by...] on the first line just now...
Well I am back after another week of work (actually I think I only worked one night duty, two actual work-days last week). Hongyue's leaving soon, so he cleared his off on Thurs and he's clearing them all this coming week. Thurs was games day, so we had a brief introduction to touch rugby before moving on to soccer, 5 a side with 3 teams. I realised we had decent players among us, it was the first time I played street soccer with them. Well, I am sure looking forward to more soccer in the future ;)
Work was usual on Fri, although spam could suddenly change from something cosmological to poetry, haha quite unexpected.
Then on Sat, I had my first Section A outing (inclusive of Clong!). It was meant as a farewell outing for hongyue who's leaving us for his medicine course in NUS. We met at Plaza Singapura for movie at 1600hrs. The movie was Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. Though the movie was pretty short, I felt that it was rather nice but some parts were really very lame. The Fantasti-car and Silver Surfer sure reminded me of that cartoon which I watched years ago.
After the movie, we walked over to Fish and Co for dinner. It's my second time there and the food arrived very quickly. All of us got the New York Fish and Chips. Then Nik and Clong had to leave first for duty while Kangwen had family matters so he left too. The payment surprisingly took quite a while. After that, the remaining four of us, Soon Heng, Junxiang, Hongyue and me headed to Clarke Quay for a drink. We went to Brewerkz. We ordered a Kölsch tower which is German beer in a 4 litre container (tower). They gave us four glasses, each glass is around the volume of a can of beer. We had a lot of fun chatting and knowing more about one another. We talked about girlfriends, bachelorhood, ORD, family and even rugby. Hongyue was quite depressed which he strongly denied but maybe it's just the beer because he did not really like beer in the first place. But I must say the beer is much nicer than the normal ones I drink. It's less bitter. Halfway through, the place started showing the South Africa-New Zealand rugby match live and Junxiang who was a rugby player started talking about rugby to us. To admit it, I did not know much about rugby except for watching a few matches and knowing a few things here and there. But after that match, my knowledge had surely improved, all thanks to Junxiang. In the end NZ won SA 26-21. It was an enjoyable time to drink with them, I realised I like drinking haha. I drank 3 glasses which was about a litre and I was not drunk, maybe a bit headache but I was still able to talk, response, take bus home myself, joke around. We stayed until the match ended which was around 2300hrs then we left.
Well, it was an enjoyable day for me, especially the drinking, and I am looking forward to more such sessions in the future!! Although I am sure all this drinking will surely add to my waist length, so I guess I should start running regularly. That would start from the day I get my No. 3 then and it's a promise to myself.
Alright, that's all for now...
