last saturday of the year with dan

although i slept so late last night, i had to, and surprisingly managed to, get up at 8 this morning and leave the house by 9 to help out at the children's party at cashew heights. most of the kids that came today also came for the previous watermelon party and luke was there! the ever-so-cute luke!! haha. he's like a little gummy drop from heaven...anyways,he was running around and making alot of noise with his elder brother so i went and put scooped him off the ground and he didnt make a sound. so adorable. he's about 2 but he speaks quite well for his age. i asked him "where's your daddy?" and he pointed to his left and said "over there". for that very second i felt like i could love him forever. i want my own baby that can say "over there" too!!! haha. i brought him over to where lydia was standing so we could shower him with tons of attention again. fed him sausages and he loved it. when we asked him "is it nice?" or "do you like it?" he replies with his "yesh". just "yesh", but it's enough to blow me away with how much understanding of the languge he has at such a young age. or are kids suppose to be already yakking away at 2??

the party ended on a happy note and uncle joseph gave me a lift down to clementi so i could go to lavender to meet yihao to get the party decorations for ken's surprise party. i was 20 mins late but he was so kind to wait for me. gentleman? yesh. haha. it was pouring and we had to walk all the way to The Concourse cos there were no buses from the mrt that goes there. poor yihao was half drenched cos he wanted to shelter me more. the shopping centre was pretty empty and i really wonder how the shop owners are able to survive when not many people go to shop there. but the party stuffs were considered quite reasonable to me, i dun really know the market price for the stuffs in the first place. got all i needed and we went to the market to eat tangyuan. apparently, the tangyuan shop there is quite famous. yihao treated me to a bowl of 6 tangyuans, 3 peanut and 3 yam. i couldnt finish andi felt so bad for dumping 2 to him, but in the end he dumped 1 back in my bowl and we just left it. and now i know, 6 tangyuans is really too much for me. yihao had some confinement thingy so he had to leave at 4. i thought i would meet gladys weixian nic and seejun for dinner but in the end no one planned anything yet. as i was feeling really worn out, i took a cab home to sleep. woke up at 8pm and went to get changed to go meet gladys at bukit batok mrt. we were gong to double O for dans farewell and he invited his army friends along too. took a train down to douby ghaut and met up with weixian nic and shaomin. it started to rain again and there was only one umbrella, and we had to walk to a bus stop quite a distance without much shelter, so the 3 girls shared the brolly and the 2 guys had to run in the rain. it was kinda terrible because we were stranded at some building with the bus stop less then 10 meters away, but the rain was way too heavy and after standing there i suggested we take a cab. so we walked to the back of the building to try find a taxi stand but there wasnt any in sight. so the next plan was to have one of the guys wait along the roadside and wave a taxi down and go to the back of the building to pick us from a sheltered area, but in the end there wasnt any available taxi. so i suggested, again, that we just take the bus and one by one go across from the building to the bus stop with one person running back and forth to pick everyone. got onto the bus and alighted at the next stop (-_-")

since it was still raining and we only had one umbrella, nic went to find out where double O was. he took a very long time before he came back and couldnt find the place. so dan had to send one of his friends to come pick us up. by the time we got there it was already 1130. everyone was already partying without us, each of dan's army friends bought him a shot and he was made to dirnk up every shot. so when we got there he was already drunk and he came out to greet us with a red face. paid 15 bucks to get in, leaving me with only 5 bucks in my wallet. i forgot to withdraw money cos i was rushing to meet gladys, and there wasnt any atm nearby. so i owe alot of ppl money after today. nic bumped into a few of his pilot friends and i thought they were really good looking at first. i mean, they ARE good looking, with hot bods and stuff, but they are smokers, and the thing that turns me off is a guy who smokes. haha. i wouldnt mind having guy friends who smoke, but my boyfriend should NOT and NEVER smoke, i wouldnt even have started a relationship with a guy who smokes in the first place.

had a bit to drink and alot of photos taken before dan dragged us to the dance floor. i didnt wasnt to dance and so did some others, so we ended up going to the dance floor and running away from danvin cos he trying to push us up the platform where the whole double O could see us and we just wanted to stay below. after awkwardly standing there, i went to get myself more drinks cos i knew that i would openly embrass myself if i knew i was doing it. haha. nic paid for 2 lychee martinis and in the end i drank only a little and not enough to make me high. went back to the dance floor and i moved sightly a little more with the help of the others pulling and holding my arms and waving it around. haha. i went to the bar where it was so much quieter and slacked with nic for a while. ordered frozen margarita, and it was 1 for 1. the rest came after a while and we had a long session of taking pictures and playing the guessing game. the girls wanted to go back to the dance floor to sweat out all the alcohol but i didnt go with them, leaving peishan thomas nic and me at the table, and we decided to go play pool. the pool there is a rip off! $13 an hour!! but we still played anyways, and i couldnt aim straight. i was really too tired and not in the mood for pool. partnered with nic and in the end we lost 2 games out of 3. haha. after finishing one hour we were dragged back to the dance floor by dan and this time it was more taking pictures then dancing. i think the other people were shocked by the number of ppl we had with us when dan gathered us to take a group picture. there were only 6 girls and about 20 guys. we were talking about how guys in the pub wouldnt dare touch us girls cos we had so many guy friends around us to protect us if anything happened, actually we were mostly surrounded by dan's friends so no stranger could even get close. we left the club at 330am and went to a nearby bakkuteh store for supper.

shared a cab back with huiwen weixian and gladys. and i it's already 6.26am...yawnnssss....church tomorrow, urrrhhh...i mean today...

spread my wings at[5:41 AM]
