Platoon dinner
Encik treated us to dinner last night at Geylang, Star Station. My dear section commander informed us that it is at Geylang Lor 3. Met up with Kun at Bugis, went to Funan and COMEX at suntec city exhibition hall. Walk til legs wobby wobby. Trying to find a laser printer (tootpid unker Xpire) and a decent screen protector for my T43. Walked the whole of Funan, cant find!
Went to Think Gallery, the sales persons don’t want to attend to us. Probably we both look young and look penniless. Then Kun commented that, even if they have, he wont buy from them. Have the same thinking as Kun.
Oh yeah, I don’t find COMEX as exciting as before. Probably I don’t have things to buy. Don’t have items to splurge my $$ on. Game console? Got it. MP3 player? Got it. Probably renny needs it, so she doesn’t have to rely on her “flying saucer”. Laptop? Got it. LCD monitor? Got it. New internet access plan? Happy with my current one. New network equipments? Happy with my 3com router. So just went there to walk walk only.
Also went to Peninsular Shopping Centre, bought a sniper t-shirt. A sniper tag. What’s left not inside my sniper want to buy list is a dragon 12 inch model of sniper. Previously saw it at Clark Quay’s model shop. Saw it at Heeren’s toy shop on display. Not for sale. Sigh.
Ok back to the dinner. Sorry I digressed. Kun and I made our way to Kallang as it is the station nearest to Geylang Lor 3. Rang Encik up and he mentioned that it is near a gas station, should be lor 3 or 5. We passed by Shell Station as we approached lor 3. Went scouted from lor 3 to lor 9 and we cant locate the shop! Half an hour later, eugene called up to inform us about the wrong information earlier on. It should be at lor 23.
Damm, lor 23 is near to Paya Leba MRT station. We got onto the even numbered lor and made our way towards lor 23. There is a meaning to me mentioning even numbered. Check out this Really Awkward entry by Weiliang.
Soon we reached the damm lor 23. Met up with the rest. The only person who didn’t come are Blackie (Raj) and Weiyuan. Replaced by Victor and gf, sgt Eugene and Encik. Had a nice dinner. Chilli crabs, black peppered crabs, froggie legs, vegs, oat prawns, omelette. Yum Yum. In the end there are still food left. We play the “Zhong Ji Mi Ma”. The game whereby there is a chosen tabooed number. And we call out a number and limits will be given.
I think KJ ate the most. He is like darn heng. Ah Goh is another funny one. He mentioned to the one before him that selecting the limited wont dio one. The guy listened and selected the lower limit. Nothing happened. Then he happily selected the upper limit. Bingo! Haha. Sgt Eugene wanted to trap Encik but ended up eating most. Victor wanted to trap Sgt Eugene, end up he kena. Hahaha.
Final round. Sgt Eugene is the first one to shout the number. Then Encik was the 2nd. Seems like it is fated that he should kena once before the end of dinner. Encik happily called out a number as the chance of getting the number is really low. Too bad, bingo.
Hitched a ride back to CCK with kun, KJ and shawnie, courtesy of Encik. Too bad Sgt Eugene has got duty in camp. :\
Chatted with KJ abit about studies on the MRT ride back home. And Charles commented something.
“nD I know you long time never study. Brain rusty liao. But how come your hair also rusted!”
Tsk tsk.
