Sushi Day

H'okay,
so we decided to go for the Sakae Sushi buffet lunch on the 15th which was meant to last for approximately 3 hours or so... and so with 6 people, armed with their hungry stomachs for at least 3 hours, we set off Westmall at Bukit Batok to head to Plaza Singapura by MRT at 12(some bright guy came up with the idea of meeting at 12 when the buffet starts at 3).

So we reached PS at about 12+pm with about 2+ hours to kill with our hungry stomachs while waiting for the buffet to start, and so we decided to go play some pool(which of course i owned, jks), ahhh, played for about 1 hour or so, had some pretty good laughs due to the funny/lame/stupid antics that we all do.

Anyway, at about 2+, we set off on our journey from meridian where we played pool, to wheelocks place, however you spell it. Upon reaching there, we were second in line fortunately as it was quite crowded, we had to wait for quite a while before being allocated a seat for 6. Ah, how how nice the food was, too bad we were in such a hurry that we didnt managed to reach out target of at least 100 plates of sushi, with myself holding the highest record in the group of 14 plates, bah, didn't get to reach my target of 20 plates, 6 plates doesn't sound like a lot, but when you have had 14 plates of sushi, even downing 6 grains of rice feels like downing 6 sacks of rice.
Anyway, we left the sushi place at about 5:20 i think.

While in the sushi place, there was this lady who was kicking such a big fuss over the waiter spilling a drink on her pants, i mean jeez, give that waiter a break, and the stupid lady was showing the I-am-high-and-mighty-I-am-right-and-you-are-wrong face which i absolutely hate. Even when the manager was speaking to the lady, she didn't even look at the manager, but looked away, what a bi*ch. And she was the one complaining that her "christmas lunch" was ruined, I mean, what the hell, you're the one kicking up such a big fuss over the drink spilt on your pants, and the waiter has already apologized, and you are still complaining that the word "sorry" is not enough, just get out lady. That was enough to ruin my mood anyway. Stupid rude cow.

Anyway, so after leaving that place, we continued playing pool and went to play dota afterwards \0/. Somehow we managed to hang out in orchard till 8pm and reach our friend's house by 9, they packed their clothes and off we went home to have a sleep over, yay \0/. most of us didn't sleep till something like 7-8am in the morning anyway. We all slept for a while and at about 5:30pm, off we went to a mahjong party! more fun! woohoo, and that lasted for quite a while.. so yea.. this is something like 3 days worth of post in one, pretty long, didn't expect it to turn out to be this long :s. anyway, so that's about it for this post! =D

so.. the HK trip....

so.. i have finally gotten myself bored enough to write out what the HK trip was alllllll about... so here it goes:

Date: 8th November 2006
Day: 1

8am: Took off in a Cathay Pacific plane to head to Hong Kong
12pm: Arrived in Hong Kong after a 4 hour squeeze in a L shaped chair with hundreds of other people in a rolled up piece of metal that can fly thanks to technology and physics.
1+pm: Arrived at hotel, the Metropark! formerly known as Concourse.
2+pm: Finally checked into hotel rooms. And damn, i got a room that was inhibited by a smoker who smoked in the room and stank up the whole room with a nauseating stench of Hong Kong cigarettes.
3+pm: Went out for a walk as we were to meet up at 5pm with the rest of the families arriving in a later plane. Nothing much intersting happened here, we witnessed a fight just outside the hotel though, some cyclist delivery guy was knocked over by another cyclist and the delivery guy wasn't too happy about the food being spilled all over on the road. And they thus they started their argument. The delivery guy looked really pissed too! woot, but they werent fighting, so that aint so bad i guess, but that's a little bit of action on the first day in HK!
5pm: finally met up with the rest of the tour group and off we went to dinner at some place with a sign that said "ling yu men". after dinner, we went off to take a boat ride, and damn, i think i had a bit too much to eat, and the boat was swaying a bit too much for my liking, felt a bit sick, and the camera wasnt too good at taking pictures at night. On the boat we saw lightings and lasers on the buildings. The buildings look just like mega gigantic christmas cards or something, the whole side of the building was lighted up with lights in the shape of santa clause and the words merry christmas, haha, that was pretty cool.

Time forgotten: So after that boat ride, off we went to Victoria's Peak! We had to take a tram up to the peak at an abusrd angle of 45 degrees, pretty cool ride and nice view of the city from there. fter a while we finally arrived, and i took a picture with James Bond(pierce brosnan) \0/ well.. a wax figure of him anyway.. but that's better than nothing!!! After that quick stop with pierce brosnan, we went up to the top and we had the magnificent view of the city at night. It was pretty pretty pretty pretty. I shall post a picture of the city lights.


Pretty huh? I even took a picture with the moon in it! yay, i had to keep soooo still while taking a picture at night using that camera to catch all the light, that was such a hard task, and it was so damned crowded!! oh well, at least i got some nice picture! yay!

and so.. here ends Day 1 of the hong kong trip. :D
