Woke up @ 3pm, had my lunch before surfin the Net to find out how to write up on that stewpit culture thingy on OSD.. I really dun get it.. anybody have any idea how culture influences structure esp a machine bureaucratic one? surf for 2 hours and still not making any headway when I gave up and start playing FIFA 2005 while waiting for my dad's car..
Upon the car's arrival, I rushed off and changed into some decent clothings before going off to pick up Stella and JEss...as usual, I was late..got lost in Seng Kang again for the umpteenth time.. that place is a maze... we reached Conrad around 8.30pm which was okay for me as I was late and there was a jam in town due to the NATAS fair I guess (actually Jess's guess)
Everywhere was packed today, dunno why , as we headed off to Baker's Inn(Mellinia Walk). We got ourselves a seat petty quickly where the girls decided to order cakes for dinner while I pondered over my main course...After some serious considerations, I decided to go with a apple strudel as well as a spagetti bolognase when peifen and her bf, edwin, arrived.... It was so nice to see her.. haven't see her for almost a year.. she looked rather worn out but still doing fine, apart from the fact that she is damn hungry so she was rather cranky... Besides that, I finally got to meet edwin whom I have heard a lot about from her blog... and my conclusion was that he is real nice chap (Actually i dun think i can say that cuz he is 12 yrs my senior), funny and nice to chat with, don't really feel any distance or age gap... haha.. maybe as what stella said because he doesn't act his age..
Well, as we chow through our meal, we just sort of updated each other about ourselves, and it was rather interesting with peifen switching jobs to the EDB and that edwin and her might be getting married next year, stella having a headache over her wedding plans as well and jess, being pretty tired from her flight, talking about getting a new career once her bond is up with SIA and lecturing me about loaning my money and that it's time for me to get a gf.... All these brought me back a lot of nice memories where we are still in the junior college, time really flies, a while ago, it was orientation in SRJC and now 2 of them are getting married and all three are happily with their partners and are working.. and quite successful too according to my standards... Guess I will need to grow up now and start to be a bit more mature in my thinking.. I don't want to be left behind....
This reunion ended when everybody started to yawn as everybody was tired either from work or night cycling and we decided to leave with a quick photo taking session (hope peifen remembers to send me the photos...) before we went out seperate ways. peifen and bf in her BMW s40 turbo while jess and stella will have to settle for my dad's toyota wish... =P
As I felt that i wanted to be the filial son, I drove to selegie to take away some beancurd for my parents. I knew Sab's family love eating the selegie beancurd so I decided to ask her if she wanted any but too bad she was too slow in her response, I already bought my share and left when she msg me... so sorry.. next time k? Drove Jess and stella home before heading home to type this entry... Was a rather fruitful day except for being unable to finish my culture report....
Good luck to you gals... I will work hard.. hope to see you gals soon..
J'amore mon cherie
