K after a few day's absence... i'm back here again... with a few more new gadgets and headaches as well.
Yea, went to buy myself a laptop during. Got it off the Acer roadshow @ Funan. I'd say it's a pretty good buy, good specs for good money, and a 3 year warranty on top of it all. The promotion on tt day was a lucky draw, and u'll definitely win one out of the 3: Lexmark Printer, Olympus Digicam and the other's a grand prize thingy or smthing. Either ways, a printer or a digicam would be nice, but i got the printer anyway. Saved me some time for hunting another one. Coupled with the fact tt i'm currently so used to taking pics with my digicam tt i become uncomfortable to the digicam's inflexibilities.
Sorry, but din take any pics of my new toys, cos i'm just plain lazy right now. So it's just a black and write blog for u all now. Until i find the mood again haha.
Ok a small recap for the past 3 days..
Sat - Went for gal's SEP Alumni Award Ceremony thingy. Boring, but have to go to show some support la. After all it's free money. After tt, Dad's bday celebration @ Mirama Hotel again. Same Japanese buffet again. This time, we got slightly cleverer, we just ordered all the stuff we really like to eat. Like me, it's ebi tempura whacking session! (for the uninformed ebi tempura = prawn tempura). Oh ya, and sake man! But alittle not as shiok as before already. Dunno y. The food is getting boring too, cos it's nothing but sashimi. The rest of the stuff are just ain't worth eating man. Might not go there again for quite awhile.
Sun - Rushed down to Funan to catch the last day of the roadshow. Wanted to buy another model initially but the salesman kept pushing my current one, which is more or less similar, but alittle lighter and wide screen. Specs? Pentium M 1.73GHz, 512MB DDR2, ATi Graphics Card (Dun need it, but it really makes everything look nicer) 60GB HDD. Rest of the stuff are standard la. Mom chut ur usual bargain + free-gift-until-u've-got-nothing-left move, and we got quite a pretty good deal out of it. Free printer somemore. Saved me so much trouble. More on my mom's bargaining skills when i have the time. She's the MASTER!
Note: Wannabe aunties, or aunties-to-be, or already-aunties, or XiuQin (haha), if ur really interested to learn the tricks of the trade, give me a ring. I'll transfer u to my mom. $20 introductory OFFER <-- note the key word here!
Btw, i spent the rest of the day setting up my current pc, as well as setting up the lappie. Took the whole night in fact. Slept at 3.... so....
Today (Mon) - Woke up at 830. Felt like a zombie. But had to meet Louis at NUS to do some admin stuff together. GIRO form ar, my Temasek Hall forms ar, NUS bulletin ar (not out yet).. Lotsa bullshit. I wonder why we pay NUS so much money per sem, and they cannot do our admin for us? Alittle NKF-ish thingy going on here too i suspect. HMM.
Made a trip down to ACJC amidst the pouring rain. And Louis had a teeny weeny purple (*stunned*) foldable umbrella for the 2 of us. So the 2 gays huddled close to each other and swore at each other as they walked clumsily to ACJC.
From the outside, it looks quite shabby la. Cmon, it's a school for rich kids (ok mostly rich kids), so i bet they can do something better right. Another NKF-ish thingy going on? HMM. Went inside, the school feels alittle like a hospital. Yea, freaky. The classrooms are like wards, then they have this little signboards at the top of the ceiling tt tells u where all the "wards" are. Anyways, we're there to endorse some stupid certificates of Louis'. Tsk. Gotta see some AC chicks tho. K not chicks, it's xiao meis meis. Seriously speaking when i looked at them i was thinking, "Gosh, these girls are so short, and so young! Like sec sch girls?!" No way anyone of them is gonna interest me. Quite alot of posers in the sch too. Sigh.
Still raining, so the 2 gays got out of ACJC using tt small gay umbrella again and made our way to Buona Vista MRT. Did our NUS ez-link card there. Surprisingly they know we are in NUS!! Seems like the government knows every single little thing abt us! One scan and tt's it. Fuck we are all being watched! Maybe tt harmless little hole in ur room is a spy cam, watching u do every single thing since the day u were born! So Truman Show. Fierce.
Chiong to Sim Lim to get my warranty card from them, bought some wrong stuff for both gal and Kai. Fuck i can never get it right. I hate buying stuff from Sim Lim. Either they are not the correct stuff, or they just dun work. And i hate their salesman attitude big time. They'll always tell u 70% of the information, most of which are stuff u already know. Then u'll have to walk ard the shops and they'll let u in on the other 20% of the information. But still, NOBODY talks abt the most impt 10% of the information! I hate buying stuff this way man. It's like buying stuff relying on rumours or smthing. Fuck.
Rushed home with Louis, and did module planning at my hse. Module planning, not gay stuff u sick bastards! I'd say i've pretty much settled my modules, whereas Louis is hanging in mid-air thanks to the stupid system. But at least i'll see him for 2 modules. Will be taking Bahasa Indonesia and some health care shit. So next time, if u are Indonesian, and u are sick, i can help u! Haha. Dhani would help greatly in this department. Hmm.
-End of recap-
Btw, for the uninformed, i'm already in Temasek Hall. Gonna move in this friday, which i only got to know last week. Stupid admin! Everything feels like a rush right now cos i have to settle all my stuff asap, so tt when i move in i'll start to go crazy with orientation. Or smthing like tt.
Seriously speaking, i'm dreading the orientation alittle. Kena confined for 2 weeks is quite something for me u know. I still dun feel quite prepared for it. Damn. Gotta move so much in also. Like moving all my possessions in, tho i dun really have much, it's still quite alot to me. ZZ
And this NUS thing is getting into me. Have to do so much urself. It's confusing to do all tt admin with little, no, or conflicting information. And hall stuff is so mysterious, i have no idea what is gonna happen inside man. Dun even know if they will give us time to settle our stuff or smthing like tt. Hope i can make some good friends inside, tho most of u know i dun make friends easily.
Saw JunHong today at TH. Nice chap. But i dun know him tt well. Seems like he's got a buddy with him too. I feel so alone right now.
And yea, we've got only up to this Friday to spend time with each other. Then i'll disappear for 2 weeks. And then u'll disappear for 4 mths. Hope i can see u more. *pat*
