Saturday, 22 August 2009
------------------------

The day started off with me waking up at around 10.45am.
I was suppose to meet Xp at 12pm at City Hall control station.
due to my laziness and itchy finger to switch off my alarm, resulted
in me changing the timing to 12.30pm instead.

At least there was ample time to get ready and all.
I went to take my shower and started to change.
When I was about to leave, I notified bay that I was going.
He was pretty much shocked.
So he woke up in a blur stupor and said, " Why didn't you wake me up? I thought of accompanying
you the the Career Fair, you don't want me to go with you is it?"

I replied: " No, I didn't say I don't want you to accompany to the fair, it'll be
great if you could come along, I would love your company."

So he woke up and rested for awhile before heading to the bathroom after
several nags from me. LOL.

After which we took a train to City hall, amazingly even with the
time Bay took to shower and all, we still did make it at 12.30pm.
Haha! The train must have sped for us.

Upon meeting Xp, she mentioned that she wanted to switch the DVD that she bought
to some other shows, so we accompanied her to HMV. Unfortunately, she said she didn't
wanna switch it in the end. Faints. Lol.

So we walked over to Suntec convention hall. Bay and I were pretty hungry,
so we decided to lunch at Food Republic.
I had my hokkien mee and Xp shared steamboat fish soup with Bay.
Apparently, it wasn't that nice and filling, but I made a right choice,
so I was glad. LOL.

We proceeded to the Fair, Xp wanted to go look for the Cisco booth
and trust me when I say that Kumar was wrong when he mentioned that
only Indians can maneuver well. Xp was just REALLY GOOD at maneuvering.
I kid you not, the place was so crowded, but yet she could move swiftly
as if we were just walking down a lane of a back alley. I was impressed.
Bay kinda agreed with me too.

I went to look up on SMA for my Mass Communications Degree,
it wasn't that costly, but the thought of having to go through
bank loans and searching for guarantors are already driving me nuts.
How I wish my bank account miraculously have 22k in it so I can settle
it once and for all. :/ Sigh. The life of a girl with no savings. DAMN!

Saw my previous work place's people,
they had a booth there, everyone was so busy.
Wanted to say hi to some peeps, but it was just too messy. LOL.

So we left the place with not much information on anything.
We decided to head towards Marina Square to bowl and play pool.
It was really fun and I enjoyed every moment of it.

Bay was like the pro bowler and pool player.
He just scored so well for everything.
He scored 102 for both games of bowling,
whereas I only had 74, and 93. :/
Xp was disheartened, she was the lowest among all of us,
but seriously she shouldn't feel so bad coz the people beside
us who were playing didn't even know how to play.

They were a bunch of people from China and NO!
I do not discriminate them or look down on them,
I have a couple of China friends back in Informatics as well,
but none of them were as rowdy and hilarious as the ones bowling.
There was this girl, who held her ball as if she was worshiping
some god and she had to bowl in such a constipated manner. HAHA.
I laughed my lungs out.
It was some form of entertainment.

After all that, we headed for Esplanade,
we wanted to find a place to eat as we got hungry again,
but there was nothing much there. We ended up listening to
a band playing at the atrium. The male vocalist was good,
his voice was smooth and it was soothing to the soul.
Bay was getting pretty pissed coz Xp didn't know what she wanted to do
and everywhere we went, it had to be according to her wishes.
Moreover, Bay was tired as well.

We left Esplanade and found the ice-cream man!
Haha, I just couldn't resist. So I decided to buy
Chocolate chip ice-cream wrapped with bread.
Cheap cheap! :)
Then we headed back to Marina Square and sat outside where
all the benches were.
Xp had a talk with Bay about going to town and Bay was reluctant,
coz Bay didn't like crowded places and town was just boring.
Once again, Xp pissed Bay and everything went haywire.

I didn't mind going to town with Xp,
but I also didn't wanna leave Bay alone to go home by himself.
My mind was in a mess.
If I forced Bay to go with us to town, it'll be difficult on him,
but if I left him alone to go home, things will also be bad.
Sigh.

In the end, I went town with Xp alone.
We went to Takashimaya, she wanted to get some G2000 polo tee,
but unfortunately it was out of stock, so we headed to Wisma Atria.
That's when she managed to get it, but not the size she wanted.
I was just talking to Bay over the phone, asking him what's wrong and all,
got into quite a heated argument, but we apologized to each other in the end.

We went over to ION, Xp's first, my third.
Window shopped at various stores.
Stopped at Coffee Bean for a drink, we shared this
Hazelnut mocha drink I think. It wasn't that bad,
but Xp was complaining that Coffee Bean isn't good,
Starbucks was better and all.
Faints.

We got out of ION and took pictures.
oh, we were such cam whores. LOL.
This guy from the Middle East requested to take a picture with me,
so I just said yes.
That guy must have been damn happy, a hot asian chick = me. (kidding)

To end off the night, we went over to the Youth Park to have our supper.
we ate Lala and Fish and chips from Botak Jones. Xp was really nice to have
paid for everything. Thanks dude. I owe you a treat some day soon :)

We sat a train back and yeah, I was home.
Surfed the net for awhile and off to bed I went.
Still had a long day ahead the next day. :)

* A long long day.
