Largo
Time to blog.
24 Dec, Wed
Christmas Eve. Had dinner with my family at Ju Shin Jung Korean Charcoal BBQ @ ECP. The room we were brought to was really big. The food there was great, though the portions of meat were quite small for the price. Apparently Koreans eat a lot of vegetables, cause there were plenty on the table. The flat metal chopsticks also needed some adjusting to, as they were pretty heavy. There was also a tray containing what seemed to be mints. It was actually wet towels which were dehydrated, so we had to pour water on it before it could be expanded. Anyway, its a nice place if you like Korean food.
 
 
25 Dec, Thurs
Christmas day! Went out with Angeline to VivoCity for a movie. She was 30 minutes late, so I went to get the tickets first, lol. Being christmas, naturally there was a lot of people there, so I queued for a long time. Got tickets to Yes Man. It was the front row seats, but the distance from the screen wasn't too small, so it was okay. Since we had some time before the movie, we walked around first. I wanted to shop, but of course I can't have people waiting for me right? Hahaha. Went to the arcade, played some games. Then walked around the Sky Garden and talked for awhile.
The movie was funny, as expected. Its a very good movie. Went back to Hougang by train. Good thing her house was on the same route as Melvins, lol. Went on to Melvin's place for his little christmas gathering. Daren, Shawn, Gerald, Louis, Gregory, and Kenneth was already there. Jing Rui came later. Ate PH/KFC, played PS2, and some cards. And Louis got drunk, lol.
 L-R: Greg, JR, Gerald, KO, Shawn, Melvin, Louis  Random picture  Drunk playing keyboard  LOL
26 Dec, Friday
Boxing Day. Christmas celebration at Mr. Ng's place this time. Went out in the morning to the NTUC next to Buangkok MRT to buy nuggets for the potluck. Bought 2 packets, costing $13.80 -_-. Spent about 1 hour frying them. Didn't do all of them though, since my container wasn't big enough. Then showered and rushed out to AMK hub to meet Freida. I was late for almost half an hour, sorry! Lol. She brought chicken wings. We took bus 24 to Mr. Ng's place. Called Jonas to wait for us at the bus stop since we didn't know where to stop. Shawn, Tiffany, and Cheng Fu were also waiting at the bus stop for us. Was one of the first few to reach there, before the committee of course(they stayed overnight). Had a lot of fun there. The dog, Pepper, was damn cute la. He was like licking everyone's leg and feet, haha. Left the place at 9.20pm.
 The bird got mohawk one, but can't see clearly in this picture.  Pepper! Blur  DotA-ing  L-R: Andrew, Jonas, Weekiat, Huixin  Potluck. I forgot to take pictures of my nuggets, lol.
27 Dec, Sat
NIESB concert. Went together with Shawn, Fikri, and Gerald. First met Shawn's friends at Jurong East, then moved on to Boon Lay to meet Alif, Ben, and his friend, Rytha. Took 179 to NTU's Nanyang Auditorium. Missed our stop, so we had to walk back quite a fair distance. Ended up missing the first song, haha. The concert wasn't really as good as I had expected, maybe it was the repertoire. Had dinner in the campus itself. Fikri and I had lasagna, and everyone else McDonalds. Mine was very wet and his was kinda dry. Regretted getting the pasta for $6.90 when I could have gotten a big mac meal for 5 bucks, haha.
28 Dec, Sun
Concert by Nakamura Gakuen Girl's High School and TKGS. Met Joel at Kovan MRT at 3pm. I was late, hahaha. Took bus to Ben's house. Played his trumpet and piano while waiting for him to prepare. Then we went down and Mr. Aw picked us up. Helped him with his phone on the way to VCH. TKGS performed first, followed by the japanese band. It was really a hair-raising performance lor. Both their playing and singing were spectacular. A very worth it concert. Went to Plaza Singapura with Ben and Joel for dinner. We ate at KFC, then went back.
29 Dec, Monday
Band in the morning. Jeremy, Melvin, and Jia Wei were also there. Mrs Chua from Marsiling Sec came down to teach the band. Had lunch at the McDonalds just opposite school with the 3, plus Louis. Then headed down to my place. Played PS2 and L4D. And they were really messing up my room, as if it weren't messed up enough already :D
At 5+, Jeremy, Melvin, and Louis left. I went with Jia Wei and Hong Zheng to Dhoby Ghaut cause HZ wanted to get an amp. from City Music at Peace Centre. Played at the arcade at the station first. When we finally reached Peace Centre at 7.20pm, we realised the shop had been closed for 20 minutes already. Walked back to Plaza Sing and ate at BK, then decided to watch a movie. Got tickets for Bedtime Stories and walked around a little before the show started. The movie was damn funny, even better than Yes Man, hahaha. Posted at 2:27 PM
