mon - fri - damn sian. did two ppl's work all week. bloody hell
fri night - had company dinner at some hotel in havelock road. yea the food not bad...better than some restaurants ive been to. also had half a glass of australian wine, as well as downing a glass of champagne ^^ turns out champagne is easier to drink than wine. although kind of tastes like beer
sat - woke up at lunchtime after all the hustle and bustle. thankfully i'll be able to wake up at similar times after 19 april 2012 but before late august 2012 (if i don find a job, which most likely i wont). den 190ed down to plaza sing to try and find snsd keychain, but they didnch have! T.T but anyway managed to nab a collection of 12 snsd posters for 30 bucks. den trained down to orchard mrt and underpassed thru ion orchard to wheelock place before passing by far east shopping centre to forum shopping mall. yea and the toys r us there has anti-monopoly!!! after three bloody weeks of searching all around the island!!! (ok not all around. i only searched at suntec, vivo and plaza sing). den took a damn longwinded walk to grange road before 75ing back to bukit panjang and den lrt'ed back to south view before walking home to dump all me stuff before heading to lot 1 to nab maccy D's for dinner
yea den watched football at night. Ying and Reuben came around 11.30 (damn early eh) before leaving at 2.30 after Man Utd had smacked tottering hotspur. nice
sun - church today, and my afternoon nap was ruined by my stupid bladder -.- and now here i am, watching snsd's new videos. and the week ahead has only 3.5 working days (cos i took afternoon off on thu). cheers

den went back thru citylink mall and out to north bridge road. tried to dl some apps for me itouch, but horror of horrors: all the apps needed at least version 3, and my itouch was only version 2.2.1!!! haiz. so 190ed back home and bo pian have to install the latest software to dl apps. anyway managed to upgrade within 20 mins (despite apple scamming me by saying it would take at least an hour) which meant i lost all of my beautiful songs and videos T.T but at least could now dl apps. so of cos i went app crazy ^^ dl the retarded apps like the toilet paper one and the bubble popper

also like halfway through
The Lies That Build a Marriage. great read
and why the heck am i blogging at this time when i would usually be watching football? precisely because there is NO domestic football, because of the stupid international football. seriously screwed...and whoever follows the loser england team just because Singapore was a former british colony is a sad little prick

roller coaster week. lets focus on the positives
thu - chionged to lot 1 after work to nab Fifa 11. yea popular, comics connection and playcraft were all selling it at $50.90, but at playcraft it also came with a free Football Manager 2008. so guess which one i bought. then after dinner took me three attempts to install the goddamn thing -.- and i need to get used to playing Fifa on the notebook's smaller keypad, cos im so used to playing Fifa 06 and 09 on the desktop's much bigger, spacier and roomier keyboard. although i still prefer Fifa 09's manager mode
fri - Heng couldnt make it to the gym, so i chionged Fifa again ^^
sat - went to suntec city just now. thankfully they completed the construction of Times, or else i would have burned the whole damn place down. take that, fountain of wealth!!! nah joking. i would probably have just gone to the sports shops and emo-ed. so i spent like an hour in Times before nabbing
The Lies that Build a Marriage by Suchen Christine Lim. hmm how come i suddenly like literature so much. anyway,
Fistful of Colours was a good read, so im expecting more of the same
den went down to Fish & Co for dinner. the menu looks much cooler now, plus they have danish, japanese, swiss, singaporean and other countries' fish and chips now in addition to the usual new york and the best fish and chips in town. rock on man. and of course, what is fish and chips without tartar sauce? me cleaned out two saucers of the delicious thing
yea now waiting for Man Utd vs moonderland
and also waiting to be promoted to PTE in 17 days' time....
And RIP Mdm Kwa Geok Choo, aka Mrs Lee Kuan YewEDIT AT 03102010 0027 hrs ok seriously fucked. Man Utd were absolutely horrendous tonight. total bullshit. that's what's so appealing about Football Manager or Manager mode: i can control which players to kick out of the club and which players i want to buy to replace them. let's see. for my Man Utd team on Fifa 09, i kicked out:FosterRafaelO'SheaEvansFabioParkGibsonCleverleyCarrickAndersonMachedaWelbeckand these are the players i brought in:FreyGrygeraMiguelHangelandMaxwellSneijderMilnerYaya ToureOzildi MariaAdam JohnsonSuarezGignacnow THAT'S a team worthy of the name Manchester United. not the shitbags listed in the first list
