How it went by...It was new year's eve, and I was on night shift. Johan made me host for the night. But around 8pm, after shouting, "Hi! Good evening! Have a look at our festive set meals!" to passing shoppers for over two hours, I saw black!
Like, literally! I saw black and Jo asked Jasmine to get me something to eat. Got a bowl of clam chowder soup and some chunky fries. My very first time having food from Billy Bombers. Also my first time feeling like a wimp. I NEVER SEE BLACK!
Punched out around 10pm and walked to the Esplanade with Cecilia and Ziqi. I was feeling like a canned up sardine while standing beside the Esplanade; waiting for the fireworks to go off. It was a spectacular view, but the inconsiderate acts of certain people turned my mood a couple of notches down.
I FULLY SUPPORT XIAXUE AND HER PETITION TO BAN AEROSOL FOAM SPRAYS!
Someone, I didn't get a view who, but some fucker thought it was fun to spray those stinky white stuff at random people. I got sprayed on my hair, my left cheek, my shoulder and MY HANG TEN TOP!!!!! Damn you! Damn damn damn you!!!
I was so thankful that I had Cecilia with me. There were a gazillion foreign workers present and she never failed to remind me to hold on tight to my belongings, keep a distance away from them and make sure their hands do not wonder to "places".
Walking to Boat Quay from the esplanade was tedious! And when we were already at Parliament House, Faris called and told me that he was on his way from The Oriental to the Esplande. -_-"
You guessed it. THE 3 OF US WALKED BACK TO WHERE WE WERE PREVIOUSLY!
Met up with Baby Boy and who should we run into? BANI!! Who's that? Another of my colleague lah.
Had dinner (they ate, not me) at some Muslim shop that sold Western cuisines at ridiculous prices for ridiculously small portions. Cecilia ordered Fish&Chips, but the two pieces of fish were so minute, I wondered what kind of fish they used. Tsk tsk... Baby ordered Chicken chop for a freaky 8 bucks. Afterwhich, he had to spend another $4 on eye-mo because aerosol foam sprays got into his eyes.
BAN THOSE SPRAY THINGS RIGHT THIS INSTANT!
Walked Baby back to The Oriental and Cecilia and I went to some ulu corner to wait for a cab. Pffft... 3 cabs got stolen! Hate it when that happens. You've been flagging for a taxi when some idiot goes further up the street and gets the taxi because you're further behind. Sickening!!
Never mind; at least I only had to wait a mere 10 minutes. Easy lah! Reached home around 4 in the morning but was only able to sleep after 6!!
Clara knows why. And bitch, you better not be laughing while reading this ok!! IT IS SOOO NOT LAUGHABLE!
