Heh heh.. Sometimes Siwen never fails to amuse me.. 2day as usual like all e other days, me, bran and siwen took e same bus home. And we were toking and crapping as usual when suddenly we find ourselves toking abt Siwen and her big 21st birthday.. Abt a wk ago on e same bus home, she had made me and Bran promised her a surprise for her birthday by forcing our little finger to hook hers.. Wat e *?? Anywae today she soon started telling us wat she would like for her presents very happily and excitedly..
First she was toking abt this skirt she wanted- above knee length but not too short. Then she toked abt this ladies' bag and was describing it with such passion tat she decided she must draw it out for us to see. So out came a notepad and a pen n she started drawing happily. And en she also said she wanted a bra n she started drawing tat too.. She even put down her bra size ah.. And said she wanted pierre cardin or triumph brand.. Anywae its quite amusing since this' e very first time I heard a gal requesting guys to buy underwear for her birthday! Abit er.. farniee? (*raise one eyebrow..) And somemore she was happily drawing out e bra.. Not to mention we were surrounded by lots of commuters and she was happily describing e bra to us.. Things like must have fake diamonds on her bra straps.. Looks like she already seen e bra she wanted.. Haha..
Then of coz she also wrote down e skirt and other minor details and en passed us e note. And of coz I asked her permission to put this little cute note here and while she agreed happily, she liquid-papered off her bra and cup size.. So tuff luck guys.. I could of coz pen back e size but decided not to since she threatened to kill me and I'm afraid of getting killed.
Anywae.. here's e piece of amusing little note and hope it brings smiles to anyone reading it.. Esp in e midst of time when our class is getting more and more stressed by e tests and pre-clinical work.. Tuff..

I sit beside this huge open window whenever I'm at my desk, so tat outdoors is only just a wall away from me. Love e wind in e morning and evening and when my eyes need a break from all e mugging, I can juz look out off e window.. And juz now I was doing e same thing, leaning abit outta e window and looking at e passerbys and children playing in e playground, when my dad walked past my room. Think he's abit bored so he started nagging to my mum tat I'm dangerously leaning out of e window and looking at gals. But I juz love my mum ah! She came to my rescue saying e most witty thing I've ever heard.. She was saying in hokkien but I'll translate wat she say in english.
Mum: Haiyo.. Look at gals good wat.. U want him to look at guys meh?
Muhahaha..
But my mum did hurry back into my room and drag me away from e window and gave me a lecture never to lean so far off. I was sniggering all e way thou..
And Wind left Singapore liaoz.. So sad never get in touch with him this hols.. Guess I put too much blame on school and tests when really, e blame is on me.

Went for e bbq at chalet unit A at Changi which was organised by e dental society. Oh well.. Guess our class is e most pathetic.. Almost all e yr 1 came and abt 20+ yr 3 came.. Yr 2? E fantastic 8!- Weisong, Bran, Shenhua, Yeehau, Nijam, Tien Tien, JingRong and me. One may argue tat lotz of yr 3 came as more than half e class r in e den soc, and yr 2 r, well, xtremely busy. And even staff like prof Neo, prof Loh and gruaduates came down to interact with e students.. E sponsers- Q&M Dr Ng came down to grace e occasion too.. Its not an issue abt class spirit or class bonding or class adhesiveness.. Itz juz.. Pathetic..
Still we had our share of fun- all of us xcept JingRong stayed over, and after dinner took a little ride down to e coffeeshops and watch e last bit of Man vs Liver over a bottle of corona and on-e-house otahs.. Nice! Even Tien Tien ordered e bottle of corona. And Jacinta was with us too.. Think she's more excited abt watching e half-ladies of e night with us than cropped up in e chalet (kaoz! Itz damn big with 4 big rooms upstair!).. After soccer, it was still pretty early so we went back chalet and jio e yr 3 to go ghost hunting. In e end only e guys went into e changi hospital with our cellphones only while all e gals stayed with vehicles. There's really nothing much there actually.. Juz an old abondoned building. Didn't get to c caretaker also. E mortuary is susposed to be in another block of building.. Maybe next time we'll visit tat instead.
En we went down to visit e half-ladies but we (Bran, Shenhua, Jacinta, Dephne and me) lost track of e other 3 cars so we juz circled e carparks a few rounds to e amusement of Jacinta and Dephne and en drove to car park 4 where we alighted to walk along e beach, enjoy e breeze, swinged on swings, see-sawed on see-saws and watched planes which had just lift off and flying so close to us directly overhead. A simple life. 4get abt all e tests n exams n responsibilites. E perfect life.
After lazing 4 quite awhile, we decided to head back to e chalet. But not b4 we stopped by at e carpark again and walked one round juz for kicks. And Bran smartly stayed in e middle of e pack liaoz least his butt kanna molested again..
Back at e chalet we played murderer-detective-doctor game with e yr 3s which is a damn complicated game and made none e least less confusing by e seniors- Imagine Terence, Martin and Daylene all speaking at e same time.. We finally got e game going 1/2hr later and after a few rounds, we changed to taboo, which was much more interesting and played till 6..
En nice Bran send me and Weisong home right to our doorsteps.
Hiaks.. its almost e end of this wkend liaoz.. Next wk will be e fourth wk and another wk closer to e final exams. Scary.

The wedding dinner was a blast! Enjoyed myself thoroughly ah.. Me and my twin took train to outram park mrt and when we reached e station control, I saw Shanhui there already.. Kaoz.. She just look chioer and sexier everytime I saw her. This time she was wearing this black halter which was totally bare-back and a damn short white skirt, with a black scarf to prevent indecency.. Kaoz.. She's in medicine also and she wore short shorts to lectures one.. Bet thousands of guys r ogling at her lor.. Anywae met up with more ex team mates and there were so much things to tok abt! Wa.. Kunda look damn diff ah.. From a short guy (shorter en me) to a tall handsome guy liaoz.. In medicine more.. Then Wei Chang, Yanyi, Jennifer, Alvin, Yan er came subsequently and theres lots of questions flying everywhere ah.. Nice!
Took 2 cabs to river view hotel and wish my fav sec school teacher marriage bliss and e likes.. He still look as well rounded as usual but with more hair liaoz, haha. Thing is, when he looked at me at first he can't recognise me..
Wee: .... ( look at me for a very long time)
Yanyi: (hint) Oh his twin is standing beside him..
Wee: Oh.. Yonghe yongle ah!
Me: So I'm which one?
Wee: Yonghe?
Me: Yup.. Lucky u.. U got 50% chance ah..
Wee: Wa Yongle, u still look exactly e same.. But Yonghe.. U r in dentistry rite? Did u go for plastic surgery and do something? U look totally different!
Me: No lah.. I didn't do anything.. (chuckle)
Guess I really look very diff from sec school indeed. I was just a super short guy who look super nerdy.. I was super shy and quiet those days and interacted mostly with my twin only. But now my facial features had changed equiped with a squarish jaw and I've grown taller (still quite short thou) and so much more handsomer. Perhaps e contacts I wore also add on to e diff ah..
Saw our principle and vice principle and 2 other teachers there.. Dr Patrick Tan (who helped Mr Wee to set up science and tech team) - a senior medical officer rite in NUS student wellness centre, also couldn't believe his eyes when I intro myself as Yonghe. He grasped my hand tightly in a firm handshake and look at me in e eyes.. (A bit farniee..)
Me: Hi Dr Tan, I'm Yonghe.
Dr Tan: Yonghe? Oh you r now in dentistry rite? (quite impressed he actually nue tat)
Dr Tan: You look so different now! Last time you r still so small and now.. (Look deeper into my eyes)
Me: Ya.. U still look e same.. haha..
Dr Tan: Since u r in dentistry now how come u didn't come over to visit me?
Me: Hahaha.. (Loss of words)
Dr Tan: Next time when u got any problem in school just come over to see me can? I'll do my best to help u..
Me.. Thanx Dr Tan..
Dr Tan: No.. Just call me Patrick..
And they like to end off e conversation with this..
Dr Tan: And ya.. Next time if I need dental treatment I'll come and find you k.. Must giff discount!
And I like to end off their end off with this..
Me: No prob ah.. If you come I'll charge u free.. Hahahaha
Mr Wee had taught in BPGHS for 3 yrs, after which he left for Japan for his masters and en back to Singapore to teach in Swiss Cottage for 2 yrs running liaoz. So we actually saw jap gals in kiminos ah, who came all e way from Japan for his wedding. They r actually quite interactive actually.. Came over to this table full of swiss cottage gals and started teaching em origami lor.. Wonder if tatz wat they do back home..
Anywae there were 13 swiss cottage students- 11 gals and 2 guys and so 10 gals occupy one table and e last 3- Tien Qiang, A bi and Wen yi took e same table as us. We intro ourselves and Tien Qiang tot I'm 17 ah.. Kaoz.. We sat in this circle- Shanhui, Wei Chang, Me, Yongle, Tien Qiang, Wen yi, A bi, Yan er, Jennifer and Alvin with Yanyi and Kunda sitting else where. Me and Wei Chang took off well with Tien Qiang and mostly this half of e table we r toking and crapping and laffing. A bi and Tien Qiang provided us with alot of information of Mr Wee's antics also.. Thing abt Mr Wee- He's always being bullied by students in both BPGHS and Swiss but at e end of e day very much likable. He had this characteristic huh huh huh laughter which I missed so much and got to hear it today finally. He sweats alot and likes to wear dark blue shirts. He teaches e same stuff every year like e FBI thingyee ( Force, magnetism, current), e same jigsaw theory, like to boast he's batman (huh!), crap lame jokes and en laff his huh huh huh.. We also tok abt ourselves- like Wei Chang is a juggler! Kaoz! When I finally nue how to cycle hands-free, here comes a guy who can do uniwheel and can juggle 4 items at one time! Power.. And Tien Qiang nue how to scuba dive liaoz at e age of 17 and he loves Tio Man.. Aspires to be an officer in army too.. Speaking with these young punks of 17 yr olds make me feel abit old at first.. But once we started crapping, e tot went away..
And this is e first time I'm caring more on e conversations en on e food leh haha..
En came pictures taking and yeah! Took a pict with Shanhui.. Too bad my camera is non digital and theres still 26 films to go b4 development since I'm using a new roll.. Can't wait for e pict to come out haha..

I love, love. love my bike! Thou it may be old and battered and decorated with spots of white paint by our dear friends e bangladeshi as some of their paint for e walls came splashing onto e corridors. But it is a bike I'm familiar- wat max torque it can sustain while turning a bend, how much incline me and e bike can handle, how to fix e bike's chain promptly when it had slipped off, etc.. It has been with e family since I was sec 4, so tat'll be 6 yrs liaoz.. And its frequently used by me and my brothers, so e brakes had been changed a couple of times liaoz..
Its e reason y I love to run errands for e family ah- like buying dinner or paint or other things. And this morning me and siwen visited Bran's ex-church which is beside me and Bran's primary school- presbyterian pei hwa primary and of coz its opportunity for cycling! Damn shiok ah.. there was this long stretch of upslope road where I have to pedal like xiao and almost totally out of breadth when I got to e top- damn good way to work my muscles ah.. And wat goes up must come down.. U r rewarded with this super long stretch of downward slope and when I'm on e pavement, its freehand wheezing down all e way.. Triple Shiok!
And I was looking forward to e return journey as well which didn't disappoint me at all! Shiok!
Visited our primary school after e service but it was totally different from e one me and Bran once attended.. It was totally renovated, and it looked damn beautiful ah.. New buildings with tinted windows, white clean walls, small gardens here and there.. But with so much additional buildings I can't help but feel it looked abit cramped.. E gates were locked and so we were contemplating to climb over e gates or e walls which were e height of e low wall in SOC during army. Butta we dun wanna dirty e white clean walls ah.. And Siwen is wearing a skirt, thou she said she dun mind climbing so long as we look e other way.. But I'm impressed by her courage! But in e end we decided not to and I juz climbed over e gate and climbed back out over e wall juz for kicks.. haha..
And Bran should be cycling at ECP abt this time now haha..

Its alive! Its alive! My modem tat is.. Yesterday my modem took a sick leave and I found myself being horribly incapacitated of DOTA or acknowledging how nice Meet e Fockers is for our class guys had been fockerised.. B4 I continue, let me juz say tat I saw a pretty unusual sight juz 5 sec ago on e window to my left. There were 2 indians (bangladeshis actually), descending down from heaven juz outside my window..
Yup, its true k.. Coz our neighbourhood is undergoing a colour change as our flats r having a new coat of pink-dark pink-white paint. Pretty nice.. And so juz now those were our 2 friendly indians (bangladeshis) whom I supposed have finished this side of e walls and r returning home for their curry chickens.
Anywae, y am I writing their citizenship in small font? Good question.. Watz so disgraceful abt being a bangladeshi? Its not like they have a choice to choose where they r born at.. And is it really tat disgraceful to be poor, or born poor for tat matter? If they r happy with their lives, I think they r very much better off than rich, handsome or smart but sulking pple in e world.. But en its hard to be sulking if u r rich, handsome and smart.. Hiaks.. I juz need to earn more $$.. Haha..
Anywae back to getting fockerised.. For my part, I think its a very nice and farniee movie ah.. Esp e last part of e movie where Dustin Hoffman and Ben Stiller went to e hidden camera in e toy bua ya mouth with e first dancing with his slick 'poop' hand movements and e latter acting like a frozen caveman.. Dustin Hoffman is damn style ah.. Think he played his character damn damn well.. And en there r some er.. captivating scenes too.. Like Horn if u r horny and Barbra Streisand teaching kama sutra positions to her students who r sadly, eldery couples..
And realised this sunday I'm going to my teacher's wedding, at River View Hotel.. The very 1st wedding dinner I'm attending w/o my parents leh.. Wa.. So excited..
But meanwhile, its time for DOTA!
