It’s quite amazing we still keep in touch, cos we weren’t really that close with each other even when we were in the same class (and that was like 3 years ago). Yup, but even so, it’s good to see them after soooo long. Esp ShuTing (:

Although the bbq was suppose to be a GATHERING, but somehow I don’t’ think we were anywhere close TOGETHER leh. I mean, sure, we’re like together at the same place, but that doesn’t mean that we’re interacting much at all. It was just like the usual, where the girls and guys would play happily among themselves, but never together. As far as I can remb, it was like dat ever since primary school, when we were still in the same class.

Yup, I know, it seems a bit strange, but it’s certainly happening. Yet no one really make an effort to, you know, initiate interaction between the 2 big grps. Haiz. Maybe we could have BBQed food together (since Ching Siang was like the only one BBQing all the food), or even played bridge together (we were playing the same game but it was 4 girls one game, 4 guys another. Even then, 2 of the guys didn’t know how to play so most of the time they were trying to teach them instead of playing a real game).

Though that was the situation, we had fun anyway. I learnt some new games, like the one where everyone would pick a fruit name, can u’ll have to call out the name of the person who have the same card as you, and also the finger game. (: Most of the games we played were reaction games, and mostly I was the last to react. *sighz* But we had fun anyway, our pit was filled with lots of laughter.

Then came the time when we wanted to leave. Then came the problem. Cos our pit was at Changi Beach, and as u all know, it is one of the most ulu place in s’pore. We even had problems when we arrived. We took bus 19 from tampines mrt. Art a 20min ride, we saw the beach, but didn’t alight. A few bus-stops later, we alighted and started to walk back to that previous bus-stop. Upon reaching, we then realised that the bus-stop which we alighted was the right one. -.-“

We found out that 19 stops servicing at 7.45pm. That explains why other ppl came with tents – they don’t intend to go home. We walked out to the road, and tried to call a cab. None came. We then tried to flag, but there all only a few cars that past by, and the few taxis that did were hired. After a long time, we decided to walk to the bus-stop at the main road. We parted ways after tat, some to Vivo, others Downtown. End of bbq.

Sigh. Next year’s going to be a busy year, and I think that this bbq would be one of the gatherings where the most number of ppl would turn up. Well, let's hope that the morale will be higher the next time round we have a gathering! :)

Hey everyone, going back HWS on CNY eve? Maybe we could go have lunch aft that. This time, TOGETHER.

05 12 2006

It has been a month since I last seen my OBS watch-mates from Dhanabalan. I can still remb the fun times we spent at Pulau Ubin, in the arms of Mother Nature & away from civilisation…

Yup, so anyway, we met up for a gathering. Though our watch consist of 16 ppl, only 5 turned up.

After lunch, we didn’t know what to do, so we walked from Plaza Sing to Orchard Rd, which isn’t that faraway. We walked around. (I mostly window shopped.) Then dunno who came up with the idea of visiting the toys dept, so we spent the aftnoon visiting every toys dept on Orchard Rd. (1st time I did that, quite fun actually) Aft dinner at Pepper Lunch, (really nice! I suggest u all go try one day), we went home.

OBS & shopping no link? Yup, I know.
The next time when all 16 are present, we jus have a BBQ, go cycling or smth.
I still miss DHANABALAN!

[To Samuel: Thanks for the testi!(: ]

2f chalet was loud & noisy no doubt, but FUN.
(Concrete prove: We got complained by our neighbours so many times that we received a final warning from the guard, keep quiet or GET OUT.)















There were so many of us squeezing in the Costa Sands Pasir Ris chalet but surprisingly there was still space for us to play twister and bridge. The chalet went on the typical fashion, with a few guys hogging the TV with the Xbox, the rest of us playing cards, mahjong or word-games. (Yes, word-games. Even though that may not be what ppl normally do at chalets, but with the boisterous 2f crowd, even the harmless word-games could churn out tons of screams & laughter.) Those hungry during the night fought over cup noodles. (I discovered that Tom Yum flavour tasted the best.)


We had our bbq the following night. Our PSL Sidney was invited. We started the fire only at 8plus, by that time everyone was super hungry. Luckily we bought chicken rice de rice, at least got some staple food to fill our stomach. We had quite a few things for our bbq. (Guo Xiang even roasted 2 fishes as well) The hot favourite was cheesy hotdogs, prepared by Eunice and Wen Yi. The satay was good as well. Andrew came up with a new way of eating marshmallows, deep it in honey b4 roasting it. It tasted not bad la, jus that we all might get diabetes aft eating it. (:

Aft the bbq, a few of us had to leave. On the way to the MRT, I accompanied Sam to the toilet. We had to run to catch up with the guys after that cos apparently they didn’t have enough patience to wait. Upon reaching the MRT, we realise that Joshua & Guo Xiang were missing! We thought they were behind us all the time. Luckily we found out that they went to buy smth.

It’s NOT FUNNY when 2 ppl suddenly go missing so close to midnight, so pls remb to inform your companions if you suddenly have the urge to buy something instead of just waling of like dat. It could really freak ppl out.
