woah!! last night was sure enjoyable! i went to CHIJMES for the first time! literally stepped into it for the first time. and to think that i naively thought that there is only one restaurant in CHIJMES last time when i was younger. lol. evelyn, le jing and myself. with evelyn treating us to celebrate the end of our A's. ate at Sun with Mooon. a jap restaurant. and to my surprise, it ain't v ex. the average prices. the lowest being $11. the average is about $15-17. yeah. so it isn't too bad eh? but the drinks are VERY expensive. the cheapest soft drinks/juices is $5!! in the end, le jing and i jus took the complimentary ice water. we din want to make evelyn pay so much.

so i ate grilled eel with clam. been always wanting to try eel again after dad bought an eel burger frm mos burger months ago. it was nice. not bad. the place was nice and cosy too. oh oh! i also wore my new dress! le jing said it was nice and she din noe that This Fashio sells dresses. but i think i wanna go back there to buy somemore dresses! seriously! i only have one dress..i nid more than that to go out with! haha.

had nice chats though i was rather silent. hmm. wonder why too. mainly convos are jus btw le jing and evelyn. hmm. but i was okay with it. and jeremy called too! was quite happy cos lj and evelyn was beside me. but he sounded v rushed so i jus answered his qns. he needed my NRIC and my full name again so i can be his referee. scary you know. yee. nv really lyk getting involved with defence stuffs. anyway, that was part 1 of the programme.

part 2? DESSERT!! we headed to Raffles City shoppin centre! and i was so surprised to see that the area where i used to watch disney progs is gone! they build shops in that area! man. i was so sad la. batman cannot fly frm up there anymore. and i wonder wad kind of childhood kids will have nowadays. sigh.

anyway, headed to Seasons Reasons restaurant for desserts since evelyn has UOB card and there is 15% off total bill. had red wine pear, rum & rasin ice cream and 3 small cakes. it was a reasonable price considering tt we are sharing btw 3 of us. and when the red wine pear came in, i was shocked! the pears were totally soaked in red wine! yee. so when i bite it, oh man, the taste of wine jus fills my mouth. and it doesn't taste v good. i'm still learning n trying to bear the taste of wine. haha. then, LJ commented tt the ice cream tasted lyk there's wine. then eve added that a clubber (referring to me) picked our desserts, so of cos got all the liquour stuffs. haha. i din noe eve is not supposed to take liquour! man. if not i wun have ordered the red wine pear. and thru this visit to the restaurant, i learnt how to pronounce: rocher! haha. all in all, it was a good dessert treat!

and wait! there's more! there's a part 3 to last night! and it's K-BOX!! eve told us last nite that her ex colleagues invited us to join them for karaoke. so then, we headed to marina sq. and it was LJ's and my first time to K-box/karaoke for that matter! so it was indeed an eye-opener for both of us. the age grp of ppl that are there are from late 20s to 40s! even the boss was there! wow..so sporting.

they are very nice ppl. greeted us. and the ex boss also gave each of us a teddy bear in support of a bone marrow fund raising effort. so eve went over to her good fren who happen to be her age grp wan. then, being unfamiliar to the environment, we jus sat with her. then, in front of me, i saw a jug of beer! yeah! a chance to try it out! so i poured a little into a cup and sip a bit. let LJ try too. and to me, it tasted lyk nothing! lyk water yet tasteless! hmm. but perhaps that's cos i took only a sip. but when i had to finish it quickly and gulp down the rest, i could taste something. yee. haha. but it sure was fun! evelyn even commented that she could see the eager look on my face. lol. and aft tat, on the way home, i felt really sleepy. dunno if it's cos of the beer. i dun feel high nor drunk. but it poses a danger to me. nxt time, i dun think i shld drink/even sip beer if i'm driving home.

many of the colleagues were also askin us to sing a song. so after a while, LJ and I decided to pick a song and sing together. and it sure was fun!! really! we picked "like a rose" by A1 and then "lemon tree". man. singing like a rose brought back many CTSS memories. haha. both she and i din sing any chi songs. we dun really lyk. and i wonder if we spoil the mood by singin an eng song and our generation wan. haha. but it was so nice holding the mic and singing!

then, LJ and i went to play pool cos the table was in the same room. it comes together with the cost. played against a colleague called joseph. and i felt so bad. i had to ask him 3 times in order to understand he was telling me his name. the songs were a bit too loud for me to hear. so LJ and I took turns to play against him and we accidentally hit his black ball in. haha. then, LJ and I played against each other.

man. we stayed in the room so much so that we dun feel lyk leaving. we only played 2 songs and played only 1.5 game of pool! but i sure will wanna go back to K-box! the colleagues were also saying that they'll see us again nxt year. then, i said that i have a 6-8 months break nxt year, if i go work temp in the company, then perhaps i can go out more often with them to K-box! =) then they started to direct me to the ex boss then to the chief admin. haha. and she's so cute. she said that if she employ me, she'll lose her job. lol.

well, but i partly serious abt getting a temp job in that company. the ppl are so nice and fun on first impression. so i think it'll not be scary or dreadful if i do work there. then again, i really hope to get the JTC job. it wld do me good when i apply for scholarship. yeah. sigh. let's see how it goes.

oh ya. there's this guy called freddy who's really nice. i tok more to him than others. though not lyk making frens convo but more on wad's happening now at K-box. haha. nice. so after i reached home, i quickly sms yh and told him abt my adventure! and told him tat i wanna go K-box with him nxt time! he always go there wan. haha. i think it'll be LOTS of fun!

all in all, this week has been alot of first-times for me. strangely enough b4 year 2007 ends. first time go *ahem*, the drinks (3 types), CHIJMES, Seasons Reasons, K-box...wow! it sure is fun man!

okay. lastly, to add, i met up with victor. caught a movie. national treasure. it wasn't too bad. the movie. quite interesting. at least both victor and i had some time to catch up and talk aft the movie. and i felt so bad for being late :( saw his bike too :) okay. tat's all. hope to get a job soon!
