Ok looking back at the last dated post I think I have been slacking in updating my blog. Such that I don't know where to begin. At least blogger is back to full functionality and for that I have lost my last excuse for not updating. Maybe I should start with what will be happening over the next few days. 99.9% chance I might be heading out to KL this coming Thursday (Vesak Day) and coming back on Saturday where i'll be meeting the gang straight for rong mei's bday dinner without going home to dump my stuff. Lets hope I make it back in time. Results will be out soon. Having mixed feelings about it but there is nothing more I can do really but to think of the future plans for different outcomes. Will probably update you guys on that when I know more about it. Freeuns has been bugging me for an update and i've been procrastinating for awhile so I dedicate this post ot him hahaha (This is your prize for being the 2000th visitor to my blog).

Since the last post was dated 10th May! I shall give a summary on a week by week basis. Hope that I remembered most of what had happened over the past few weeks.

11th to 18th May
Went to Vivocity for the 3rd time to have dinner with scb, da jie + zen and milo at this Hong Kong styled cafe. They all ate but I gave it a pass due to a late lunch...headed back to my place for a game of texas holdem. Although we did not gamble with money, the losers had to perform a forfeit decided by the winners. I lost twice and therefore had to to perform 2 forfeits. Rinse my mouth with water from my reflective pool and to submerge myself for 5 secs with my clothes on in the pool. Thats all for the week I think!?!...memory is failing me.

19th to 27th May
Watched the FA Cup finals with scb and lionel at SMU's ice cold beer. Initial plan was to go to selegie to watch the match but ended up with a potential wet weather on our hands and the place was crowded. Rushed down via foot to SMU. Of course the prissy scb was complaining all the way of a aching legs and a growling stomach. At last the fatigue got to her and she started seeing worms and screaming while covering her ears...I on the other hand just saw a lizard slithering away in fear of the mad woman hahaha poor girl. Managed to find a reasonable seating location just before the match started. Lionel was late and missed almost the 1st 20mins. Man Utd lost to Chelsea in extra time. Try harded again next season! Freeuns who was in JB at the time called to chat amid the loud cheering/jeering of the "fans" at Ice Cold Beer. He was watching the match in his Hotel at the sametime but I could hardly hear what he was saying. Kind of reminds me of the song "Somewhere out there".

Was harassed out by scb on Tuesday hehehe poor girl did not want to go home after work and I was the easiest target in her phonebook. Could only meet her at Cityhall about 30mins after she arrived because I had to finish up some presentation materials 1st. Girls being girls, she fully utilised that 30mins for shopping and readily blamed me upon my arrival for her proud purchases of 2 tops! Headed to Sake Sushi for dinner...yummy its been ages since I had good sushi and sashimi. Plates after coloured plates, we piled our table until almost felt like vomitting. Walked off the bulging stomach before settling at Gelare for the waffles special on Tuesdays. Feeling satisfied we left for home...

Concluded my summer classes on Wed with the Finale presentation. I have a good feeling for this module. Exams on the 13th of June, hopefully I nail this one!

Watched Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End on friday with milo and lionel. Not too bad pity that the effects were mostly recycled from the 1st 2 parts. A tad too much talking but overall an entertaining show. Drove down to Clarke Quay for coffee and caught up on old times with the 2 of them and called it a night. Drinks at TCC are pretty nice. Sat and Sun was spent travelling up and down for a mixture of Mahjong and Texas Holdem. Fared better at Mahjong compared to Texam Holdem. Lost trice...means 3 forfeits AGAIN!!! Had to eat a raw egg and had my nose hair yanked out!!! and to eat fresh chilli!

28th May to present day
Went to msh house for mahjong and lost $4! Period nothing to comment on that except I manage to catch the last train home which is actually considered a bigger saving for me. Headed down to Cityhall around 11+ to accompany rong mei and msh in the infamous Donut Factory Q! We walked away triumphant with 36 donuts!!! Of course they did the hard work by Q-ing from 10.45am to close to 12pm. Hello Kitty craze all over again but the donuts are really really good!!! Headed down to Katong for a 3hr KTV session before going home...donuts were still fresh when I got home...AMAZING!!!


Matt is a happy boy with his 12 donuts

I hope this long post satisfies all your needs at least till I return from KL

Hello hello! How is everyone? Its been 2 weeks since my exams ended and i'm utterly disappointed with myself that i'm only typing this now. Tsk tsk what have I been doing? Well the earlier part of these 2 weeks has been spent worrying about how the end results of the exams would turn out. I'm passed that now, what is done cannot be reversed unless I create a time machine but then if I did that, I would not have been overly worried about my exam results in the 1st place. Wasted no time in utilizing my holidays although it has been short. Started my summer class this Monday. It will conclude with the exams being held on the 13th of June. Played mahjong with friends, picked up texas hold'em, watched Spiderman 3 and played RO (again) all in the Span of 1 week. Rather fulfilling although i'm not going to let summer class ruin my holidays. I will still continue with my outings etc...

Man Utd has finally reclaimed the title as English Champions after Chelsea hogged onto the title for the prev 2 years. Chelsea ultimately sealed the victory for Man Utd by failing to win Arsenal and so rub salt into the wound, last night saw neither Man Utd or Chelsea walk away victorious in a match of little consequence. I do hope West Ham remain in the EPL next season but its up to them to pull a quick one over Man Utd and repeating a double this season with both team's final game of the season.

Well i'm sitting here with a total lack of conviction or inspiration to blog about anything of worth. Still i'm hoping to squeeze out an overseas trip during this holiday as i'll be starting my Industrail Attachment next sem. Won't have the time and luxury to skip classes for a whole sem. Not to forget I still have to prepare a topic for my summer class final presentation. I was thinking a social issue...wonder if anyone has suggestions for me? Also anyone interested in an overseas trip huh?

PS. This was typed 2 days ago but there is some problem with the blogger page loading properly and I can't seem to format it accordingly...anyone having the same problem? Will edit this post once blogger is able to load properly.

PSS. I managed to perform some text alignment via html coding...I hate this...blogger better get this fixed soon.
