This is random. Just felt like posting lyrics for now cos they've been stuck in my head..
Cold War Kids - Passing The Hat
Look up from the hymnal, look 'round at the faces of families closing their eyes
We're taking Communion and passing the offering hat around at the same time
I reached for the hat and take all the cash
And slide it into my ragged coat sleeve
And leave in its place a note to explain
All of the reasons that stealing has led me to leaveIf there was a worthy cause for to give to
May I be so bold as to sayThe givers not knowing where their money's going
Is as sinful as throwing awayStained glasses shine on my red wine
And the sweat of my brow drips to my shaking knees
A small sacrifice to benefit one man's journey away from America's seasSweet sweet sigh of relief
Sweet sweet O Baltic Sea
Sweet sweet sigh of relief
Sweet sweet O Baltic Sea
Sweet sweet sigh of relief
Sweet sweet O Baltic Sea
Nobody here knows my name
Call it right or wrong
I bought my ticket just the same

Oh. My. God.
How could I forget..
Well, actually i can understand why i did.
That night at the BBQ..
In the ladies' toilet..
Myself and girl 2..
Had our sights assaulted.
Because out of nowhere
An OLD woman came out of the shower cubicle
Butt naked.
Like.. BAM!
Full frontal.
Arm's length away.
And with kedongdongs just hanging out there,
"Ni ke yi bang wo kuan men ma?"
She was referring to the main door
I was like "O_O WHAT THE...." We were SOOO OUTTA THERE man..
HAHAHAHA.. Had me in stitches..
Ironically, my recollection was triggered while i was taking a shower.
12:30 AM
OKay finally got myself to do this. Which sounds bad - like i forced myself to do it. Okay whatever, I'll just get to it. I'm tired.
Tuesday's BBQ was hilarious because of all the drunks. But in the name of discretion i will not name names. Haha I don't know why but I didn't feel like getting wasted. I drank quite a lot too but with a mindful pace, so i was just in this really sweet subdued state all night. So I was probably one of the few who were relatively sober (me, Lamont, Mag, Mok?).
Some scenes/quotes I remember:
Girl 1:Sylvia.I wanna get drunk. I'm not drunk. I'm still coherent.
Me: That's what you all say. You are drunk!
Girl 1:Well, not like that! (points to girl 2, who's leaning on the pole swaying herself form side to side. We are arm's length away and she is completely oblivious. Just.. blissfully swaying about.)
Girl 1 was worried that her mom might smell alcohol on her breath ... i think we might've been talking about vomitting or smth..
Girl 1: (shouts across pool) Lamont! Do you have Listerine?
Lamont: Mouthwash ah?
Girl 1: Yeah.
Girl 3: (to Lamont) DUH!! What else is there?! (pauses, turns to me) Listerine only got mouthwash right?
Classic man.
haha then Girl 2 went into the carpark and a group of us went looking for her. That was quite a spectacle, with the different towers and all. We called and she said she's on the top floor, at the pool.
(later, after we got her out of the carpark)
Girl 2: Sylvia... I want to sleep in the carpark.
Me: No, you can't.
Girl 2: Why not? The carpark is nice.
Girl 2: 2 + 2 = 4. See? I'm not drunk.
Me: What's 4 + 2?
Girl 2: 6! See?
Me: Okay. What's 6 x 18?
Girl 2: What..? I bet you don't even know that!
Me: 108.
Girl 2: Dammit!
Oh, girl 2 i love you. You are so funny when you're drunk. You wanted to drink pool water after you washed your feet in it. You say the trippiest things. I remember u said a lot of witty stuff but i can't really recall now. Haha.. you're awesome. =).
I cant really remember much more .. actually i do. I m just too lazy to type la haha.
I do know that i was happily sedated that evening. Reminded me of those migraine pills, but 10x better. =). I made two new friends there.. Hennesy and Tia Maria. Whiskey is pretty bad so no.. Not a friend. Oh and as hard as it was, what with the sweet smell of chicken satay wafting about, I stayed pescetarian!! I truly thought i'd break that night.. so woohoo! I am not as weak as I seem! And FYI , I am still pescetarian.. almost 4 weeks running now =).
Yay. Now i have an account of the bbq. I can stop here.

YESSSSSSSSSS!!!! Joreen (I LOVE YOU) bought the Regina shirt for me online last night. AHHHH! I can't wait! Though it's gonna take forever. By one friend's estimated guess : 3 weeks. By Jojo's, its about 4-6weeks. ^*&#^#&5&365537573657 GABBAGABBA!
NOOOOOOOOO!!!! I just found out the BBQ is gonna be on the 9th. Huda called me yesterday to say that my training's gonna start on the 9th, and it's probably at night. Then I re-checked my email and guess what? The F-ing workshop falls on the 9th.
