Woot! Engineering Fundamentals paper yesterday was so easy. The rest of my class were all cheering too! Haha!
And immediately after the paper came...THE HOLIDAYS!! Time to go wild!! *cheers*
Hmm...after the paper, me classmates went to watch Shrek 3 at Century Square. (Sorry guys that I didn't join you all. >_< ) Marcus and Lun Siong didn't join them too. We boarded a 10 since it took us to the place we all want to go; Home except LS who was going to meet the president, or so he says.
Anyway, when I reached home, I packed my laptop and drumsticks into my bag and headed down to Bugis with Rod. We were meeting up with some of our old friends that...well you could say that it was more than a year since we all met up. The two old friends that we met up with was Lynn and Crystal. I decided to invite Oli and Furt along too since they were inviting their friend too.
Waited for Oli and Furt to arrive, which took sometime. Lynn and her friend, Wilbert played an IQ game on Rod and me. And trust me, its soooooo stupid that I just ignored them. Haha! Eg. You know the word [whatever]? Spell it. Answer: I-T
*wacks head* So stupid =P
But it had its laughs too.
The seven of us, Oli, Furt, Lynn, Crystal, Wilbert, Rod and me headed to Burger King for lunch. And me being random, whipped out my laptop and decided to give Furt an insider to the gameplay of Starcraft II. (ZOMG STARCRAFT II IS GONNA PWN SO MUCH! ITS GONNA ROCK LIKE MAD! xD ) Furt immediately got interested in the video as they showed a demo of Starcraft II, showing new units of the Protoss, showing classic units from the first Starcraft with new abilities. Oli, though sleepy because of studying the whole morning without getting any good sleep, got so interested with the gameplay video that she wanted me to send her the video. Haha!
The other group, Lynn, Crystal and Wilbert took another table and grabbed food while our group, Furt, Oli, Rod and me were watching the video. When I got my food and ate, it turned out that the other group were just about to head to Orchard for some other stuff. And it turns out that an outing with old friends reverted to an outing with the same ol' friends. Well, at least we met up for lunch, the thought counts.
Sharon met up with us almost immediately when they left. Oh well... =/ We headed to Sim Lim Square as I wanted to get a new mouse for my laptop. We entered a shop, found so many mouses, and guess what, I thought I saw a mouse trap on the floor. o_O okay...lame haha. I inspected certain mouses, while Oli told me that that mouse is my type, and oh that mouse will look good with your laptop. Jeez! Haha I just want a mouse that works perfectly with my laptop, no need too fanciful haha!
Was in a big dilema about some of the mouses I spotted. Sharon asked me over to another store that she and Rod had been in. She motioned me to inspect some of the mouses she found. "Oh this is nice!" I mentioned, but I was still in a dilema, about what now? $$Budget$$ I could only spare enough cash for a mouse below ten bucks. So I took a $9.50 mouse from the shelf and bought it. And so far, its working as much as I want it to. =)
Oli, Furt and I headed over to the arcade in Bugis Junction while Rod and Sharon decided to grab some food since Sharon hadn't eaten lunch. Played drummania as usual, but sadly the bass pedal wasn't working well. So I wasted my first credit, but played a second time with auto-bass. Haha! Oli so pro, played with the bass even though it was spoilt.
Then afterthat I really did not know what the hell happened. We took a seat at the marble seats outside kinokuniya, and my chest started hurting like hell. I bent over abit, not letting the rest see me in pain but rather think I'm sleeping. (Oh well, at least now you all know. =/ ) I tried to withstand the pain, which was effective for a short period. The pain felt like a great lot of weight was pressed onto my chest, and when I tried to breathe in, I felt my lungs were going to explode due to too much pressure acting on it. It hurt so much that I nearly started tearing. ='(
I tugged at Rod's sleeve, motioning him to help me, which he did. He got me to sit up straight, breathe in and out, take a walk around, and of all things! Get a medical checkup. -_-" I ain't needing no medical checkup. Oli and Furt, a little oblivious to what was happening headed to the ticketing office to see if we could get tickets to watch Shrek 3. 'Maybe I need some food.' I told myself. So we headed down, and yum yum! Good ol' Old Chang Kee Curry Puffs did the job once more! Haha. Delicious!
Matthew met up with us for dinner at Bugis, and so we went to Kopitiam. After dinner, Rod and Sharon decided to take the train to Dhoby Ghaut and take a bus from there. Oli, Furt, Matthew and I decided to take a bus from Bugis home. And somehow it turns out that we decided to drop off at Katong to enjoy about a hour of zion...(jeez...haha)
When we dropped off the bus, I jumped off the bus and my bag sling with my laptop inside the bag hit me on the chest, which apparently caused my whole chest to hurt once again. This time it got worse as the pain was so unbearable that I had to ask Furt to support me as we walked. I stumbled for a bit, but nevertheless I managed to regain my balance and walk on my own. The stairs to zion got difficult as I climbed, but with Oli holding my bag and Furt watching my movements, I was at ease while climbing.
(This is getting a little long-winded don't you think? Haha!)
Skipping to end of the story...
I missed my bus-stop even though Oli had woken me up just when the bus reached. I was tired and fatigue generated from withstanding the pain made it worse. I could barely recognise the surroundings. I decided to drop off at Tanah Merah interchange and walk down Bedok South Ave 3 home, and grab a good ol' packet of beef fried rice along the way.
Guess that'll be all for this post. And don't worry, after a good rest, my chest doesn't hurt anymore.
Ciao!
