three guys, a girl and a mind cafe.
well it was quite an interesting day today. which sees me spend around 40 bucks, which is really quite a lot, no? hmm. lets see.
morning: went to recce the council canteen today. met chin ee for breakfast in the morning at macs (which was the start of the "spending spree"), then went ntuc to check prices for utensils and stuff. had an hour plus of brainstorming at s11 while waiting for chinee's tjc friend to come with the tickets (he was about 30min late), and managed to come up with a whole lot of cool ideas for special night. sadly after meeting whao and scouting out the council canteen most of them are now either 1) in the dustbin or 2) on special review. cuz we're not sure if we want class (which i am for, and probably chin ee) or no class (which whao is for. since he thinks steamboat is all about noise and heck about the decor). hopefully can thrash something out by tmr.
after that went to see rv prac. we were made to make some inspirational speeches which didn't turn out too well, but nice to see the juniors again. and well i guess i still can relate to them a little huh. dozed off a little sitting at the back listening to them prac (well im not used to 4hr nights), debated on going to visit nikki's workplace, going for lunch, going to watch step up, and staying until the end of prac. ended up leaving about 245 for lunch, which was expensive and quite cheat money.
afternoon: went out with the YI dudes (well 3 of them anyway, hence the title) in the afternoon. supposed to meet at 4, but we ended up meeting about 545 instead. cuz everyone was late (except me, which i find both admirable and extremely stupid). everyone gave the rain as an excuse, and surprisingly it was the guys (leon and jacob) who were much later than the girl (fran). um. sat around like some delinquent at dhoby ghaut for half an hour before fran came, and then we sat there delinquently for another half hour waiting for jacob. went to grab some food since fran was hungry. and leon appeared at 545 (well done!).
went to mind cafe, which is some cool place where you get to play all kinds of interesting board games, and they serve food and drinks which were pretty decent too. stayed there for about 3 hrs, and after that we were all kinda tired and drained. played some "memory" thing that turned out to be pretty hard, some brainless monkey-pickup-sticks thing, another brainless balancing thing and the last game (which lasted 1.5 hrs) was some interesting thing where you gained points by joining up forests, plains and rivers (it'll take a while to explain). game was called carcassone if anyone is interested. i recommend it haha. it's really cool. bill wasn't too cool, but oh well, nothing like an evening/night out with friends. and i still managed to connect with them i guess, which was really nice.
night: well now i have to do work. which i don't feel like doing. oh well. go me.
[edit] i have a lunch date on fri! okay nothing so exciting. just lunch with an old friend. haha. [/edit]
