LATE + BBQ Day

LATE FOR WORK!!
Why?! Overslept?

STORMY DAY! SO NICE TO ZZZ....

The night before, I had so much difficulties to zzz... Warm night and mosquitoes are definitely very active, biting all over. I woke up, and realise that it was going to rain, so I reached for my window and closed it. I went back to sleep. The next moment I woke up, it was raining heavily, and it was 7am. I had to drag myself out of bed, brush my teeth and changed and left the room. The rain made fetching a cab an impossible mission. So I waited the bus 199 for 20 minutes or more. The bus journey was super slow. Reached the interchange at 825am. The taxi queue for the two taxi stands at Boon Lay was crazy. There was people queueing and no taxi in sight. At interchange, waited for the bus for 14 minutes. Reached company at 9. To my surprise, I didn't see any of the people of the "gang". They sms me and said they went Jurong Point for movie and will be coming back at 330pm. End up, they returned at 2+pm and said it was all bluff. That day, I had lunch alone at the canteen. Bored!

BBQ @ HALL 7
Wah... Must have ended very late!

ENDED @ 10PM!

Attendance: The 3 IA ppl + Patsy + Paul aka Kang Kang + Ah Neo + Zhiwei

After work, we drank at the tavern till 530pm. Though I felt that it was abit waste of time. You know, bbq needs preparation, and the food hadn't been bought and marinated. Initially, they said they wanted to go Prime to buy. Communications is super bad. We, on the other car, don't even know where we are heading. We thought we were going Prime. Ended up, only when we exit, then we realised they went to Jurong Point. The first car which reached, got the stuff first. Soon, we left JP. 1st car went to get ice, 2nd car went to pick Zhiwei and buy cigarettes. While they were setting up the fire, I went to defrost and marinate the chicken cuts as NO ONE knows how to marinate. I was surprised that the thing to marinate is oyster sauce!! No pepper? No BBQ sauce? No sesame oil? Stunned and quite lost for words. But, come to think about it, there wasn't a need for any sauce as the time was just not enough for the chicken to absorb any little bit of the taste. The chicken cuts were too big, ended up, I spent lots of time cutting the chicken. After finish cutting the chicken, we started snapping shots of each other. All the weird, ugly and funny poises with Heineken in our hands, and also those that were wu sey ones. Party ended at 10. They left, leaving the 3 of us. Flin's friends finished the remaining food, and we left at 11. Crazy Flin got the energy to go play soccer and mambo after that.

LAUNDRY TIME
What? So tired after BBQ?

I HAVE NO MORE WORKING CLOTHES!

Reluctantly, I brought my clothes to wash. While waiting, I went to Joselyn's room to crap again, until an hour I went to collect my clothes, and finally able to have my sweet dreams..

MY THOUGHTS ABOUT THE BBQ...

The BBQ, to me, was so-so. $15 into the drinks and food, and yet, there was time restriction, no time to prepare food, and there was super excess of food. I don't know why. But I'm feeling more and more detached from the group. Is it me or what? *shrugs* Haiz.. Nevermind. I only have 18 more working days to go.
