A day of meeting people -- and this is how i described the whole of yesterday's experience... but the last person i'd met was horrendous................

Went to NUS Open House yesterday around 12pm. Well, the things were similar to last year's. Nothing special. But I've met Qiulin - my primary school ex-classmate of 6 years whom i've not seen since year 1997 (except in friendster lah) - face to face. Just had some talk but i kept bumping into her. Ha. She is studying civil engineering now..

Other than her, also met Weihan and Shiwei - both were my sec 1 & 2 ex-classmate. Then met Barnabas and his girlfriend at the engineering building! He is gonna studying engineering too. Sianz. Also bumped into Elvin at the open house. Simon was there too. Ha. And Guanyu joined us at 4pm..

So went to bugis after the open house with JL, GY and his fren, Edwin. But once there, we split. GY was meeting someone for one of his business thing again. So JL and I left for the IT Show at Suntec City...

Met Weitak, Kaimun and Michael and one of their friend while we on the way to the exhibition hall. Hmmm.. Michael seems to be trying to be sarcastic by saying why we only had 2 people while they had 4.. Haha.

Anyway, the IT Show was so damn crowded we kept stucked in human jams. The Career Fair i went a week ago was so quiet compared to this. Well, i took a lot of brochures regarding computers and laptops. But not getting any for now...

So after dinner at 8pm+, we decided to go back home since couldnt contact GY. And along the way, met a friend from my camp. Din talk much cuz he was queuing at ATM. Then later met my uncle's wife. Ha, kinda funny cuz i was the one who called her. She was going to watch movie but i din see my uncle around leh... hmmmm....

Later at home, GY jio us to go KTV at Discussion... Ah, i was quite tired already cuz it was 11pm already but still, i went. Managed to take the last train to Somerset at 11.40pm. We started singing at the main hall first before shifting to a room when GY's 'big sister' came. Only sang half a song when at the hall. Ha.

Anyway, GxxWxx (P.S. I have decided not to reveal his name so as to protect his reputation, though i felt it was unnecessary. But still, nonetheless) was there. Din really know him all the while, only know he is Jiaxiu's friend. I forgot if he was from Cat High or AJC.. whatever. But i already had the impression he IS an irritating person before i even met him and know him. Ha, and he proved me right. To be truthful, i couldnt really stand him...

When at the room, he was practically singing every song (part or whole song). And sometimes, the songs were not even chosen by him. I was telling Alan how he chose songs we dont even know how to sing. Some hokkien songs even. So he managed to solo all the way. Then i told alan to choose songs that he probably dont know how to sing so he couldnt grab hold the mic... haha.

Perhaps there should be a 'ktv etiquette' lesson for him. At one point he was smirkfully saying 'Hiaz.. Why the songs i chose u all dont know how to sing one. Haha..!' I felt like punching him but drank my beer instead to control myself.

And after singing like 3 songs in a row, he actually put down the mic, took the remote control and said 'Ah, i havent chose any songs yet for so long..' Yeah, after 3 songs, that was long!!?! And the fact was, those 3 songs he took part in singing werent even his! How blatantly.

In a bid to stop his domination, Alan and i chose 4 songs in a row. And it was timely because we only left 20 minutes to the end of our session at 3am. However, the attempt proved to be a failure -- he still sang OUR songs! Perhaps somebody should just hide the second mic.

For the 3 hours session, Guanyu asked me and alan to pay $20 each while he and GW paid $40 each for the amount of drinks they ordered. But i actually thought i should only pay $15 -- $10 for the beer, $3 for room charges, $2 for tidbits. Oh, whatever. I dont want to put GY in a fix. But when i said i only have 1 $50 note, 1 $10 and 2 $2, perhaps GxxWxx should not even said 'Aiyah, how much to pay i leave it to u all. U decide how much u all deserve to pay lor...' BAH!

And perhaps all those singing were not enough, he suggested going Kbox which closed at 5am. So off we went. But last minute, GY pulled out. So we had to cancel the room they already had started the session for us at Kbox. We settled for billard instead.

I was bad at billard i must admit but the game was simply an 'ego-boosting' session for GxxWxx. Anyway, there was a time when he hit a red ball into the pocket after the white ball hit the yellow ball which diverted at an angle to hit the red ball into the pocket. He didnt mean to hit the yellow ball actually but wanted to hit directly on the red ball. So he turned to me and said 'Haha.. Im really good right.... but i actually think it is more of luck.' I felt like sticking my cue into his arse but ended up in the cue chalk. Ha. Ok, lame.

After the game at 5am, it was agonising. No bus nor train. I dont wanna pay midnight charge for taxi too. No choice but to wait til 6.30am. Had breakfast at Killiney there but i didnt really eat. Listened to some craps again but still managed to got home soon after breakfast...

Ahhh... a tiring day indeed.
