Going to the hawker centre this morning to get breakfast for my mum and myself, I saw that lively crowd and the happy faces of families dining together. Times have changed indeed, stalls change and even for those that remained, people changed. But it's still the same old lively hawker centre in almost every part of Singapore. Suddenly, it struck my mind that I used to partake in this activity every weekend too. My dad would bring us to a hawker centre to have breakfast and shopping in the noon. I guess all these are now history.
Just came back home after celebrating a joint birthday party of Anita's, Sok Cheng's and mine held at Hui Min's house. It felt weird celebrating my birthday at other people's house but it was fun. At least I know i exist in someone's mind. Was surprised by my present. I got a Fred Perry wallet and a Casio watch. My heart melted instantly. I was delighted to have a bunch of close friends, honestly. 9 years of friendship, how many of us have a good friend of 9 years? Now I can proudly tell the world I have a bunch of good friends. Thanks to the hospitable Hui Min and family, her mum prepared Mee Siam for our dinner; pity my stomach couldn't handle it all. Hui Min also ordered Candian 2-4-1 pizza with chicken wings. Our night ended with doze and doze of liquor accompanied by board games.
Just before going to Hui Min's house, had lunch with Wei Li, Yi Mian, Hong Boon, Jun Jie and Joo Chun at Marina Square's Yuki Yaki buffet restaurant. I swear I could barely walk a mile after eating. I was simply too full! After lunch, we head towards Suntec City's arcade. There Jun Jie showed his excellent basket balling skills on the machine. I think he ended with 700 over points. The rest of us sat on the Daytona machine to compete in a race. I was second (or was it third?) in the first round and finally caught up with that slight luck as the first in the second round. After that, we headed back to Marina Square once more to catch I am Number Four.
Movie was awesome except that little bit of boredom at the beginning of the show. Anyhow, Lorenz and my buddy joined for the movie too. After movie, Yi Mian droved us to Safra Mount Faber because some of use needed to purchase stuff from emart. Wow, I swear Yi Mian is hell of a person who is very neat and tidy. His vehicle is clean not just on the exterior, but interior too. I think cleanliness has to be trained from young and I think his parents had done a great job on that. Or probably that's just his character... haha!
Larry came over to Mount Faber too at night. He ferried my buddy, Wei Li, Lorenz and Hong Boon to some places for dinner while Yi Mian ferried Joo Chun, Jun Jie and I to Potong Pasir as he needs to rush off elsewhere.
What a day to spend my weekends. Damn, nowonder army boys are saying that weekends are darn precious. I wish the next one and a half year would past quickly.
