Bus Rides
>> Friday, February 25, 2005
Went out with jiayun to sing ktv on thur at lot 1. I had never been to cck k-box before and the tv was rather small compared to other outlets. We sang all the way from 11 am to 2 pm. The difference here is that we got chased out at 2 pm sharp whereas other outlets like cineleisure would normally chase people at around 2.30 pm. I think that it is because cck is a neighbourhood shopping centre and that many students are inclined to sing ktv as there is a promotion of $6 per pax from 2 pm to 7 pm for students. Thus, there is higher demand for afternoon sessions at cck compared to orchard which has much lesser schools in the vicinity. Had lunch after 2 pm and went home for a short while before arranging to meet liyuan at jurong east to apply for jobs at another job agency. The job agency is Recruit Express at JTC which is one of the better known companies. We left promptly after we submitted our application forms as i had to rush to meet 2 of my secondary school friends at Habourfront as we are going to Joanne's 21st birthday at Costa Sands Sentosa. Took 176 from jurong east and transferred to 188 before reaching habourfront. The 3 of us were wandering around in Habourfront shopping centre looking for present as we haven't bought yet. We visited mostly shops selling female accessories and finally decided on a bag and a set of necklace and a pair of earrings. We were all quite hungry by then and boarded the bus to Sentosa. Met Anna and Clara, our secondary school friends as well on the bus. I had totally no clue of the way to go but luckily some of them knew what bus to take and where to alight. We had to walk quite a distance from the bus stop to the rather deserted resort. We were invited to a restaurant and saw some familiar faces over there. Helped ourselves to the catered dishes on the table and took a photo after our meal.
There was a BBQ after our dinner and most of us just sat down on the chairs, lazy to barbeque as we were mostly not hungry. Cutting of the birthday cake was next and Joanne was busy taking photos with each group of her friends.
Clement and Chin Wan decided to take the initiative to barbeque some food for us. We sat down eating and chatting for some time when we noticed that most of them had gone back to the apartment. We decided to check out the arcade near the lobby as we didn't have much to do. Played a game of table soccer as it was the only game which everyone could be involved. Went up to her apartment and was really amazed by the incredibly small size of the apartment. There wasn't room for the 6 of us to squeeze in and we just waited outisde the apartment for those who went toilet. Bid farewell to her after that as none of us intended to stay over in that crammed apartment. As we were walking along a deserted road to the bus stop, i suddenly remembered that i could show them the scary pictures i took at lim chu kang. Showed them the picture with a lot of orbs and zoomed into the photo to show the eyes and mouth of each individual orb. The gals were mostly freaked out but the guys examined each orb closely on my digicam. I was rather excited to describe my ghostly experiences to them. Went to Habourfront hawker centre to grab a bite before heading home.
Took a total of 9 bus rides on thursday and i was not pleased to think about the amount of money spent of transport. Have to get a job soon!
Went out with Hwor Chen and Kang Rui today to watch Howl's Moving Castle. It is a really magical and fascinating japanese animation. Walked to PS after that to have our dinner. Left for home after wandering among the shops. Overslept on the bus and ended up near Bukit Panjang. Had to take another bus back home.
