Happy New Year?

New Year didnt seem to happy this year....Hope the ppl of Aceh,Sri Lanka,Somalia,India,Thailand and the much unnoticed Myanmar can get on wif their lives n recover their livelihood as soon as possible.....And also the island resort of Maldives and the numerous smaller islands hit by the tsunami......
I agree wif the fears of Mr Kofi Annam (did I get it correct?) in demanding the donating countries promises in the aid packages of millions of $$......One article show particularly how some countries didnt live up to their promises,but notably it was the western countries that did so...(or so it seem that the western countries do so more frequently n hence are in the limelight more...)hopefully it would not repeat again.....
it is disappointing that some countries are vying for political influcence or status quo by showing the world how helpful they are...im proud of Singapore doing her bit wif no underlying strings attached....As quoted by an uncle in the news yesterday....he was proud of LKY N LHL of governing the country well n able to come up wif such substantial sum of money n assets to aid our neighbours........

Back to my life,the ants life.....on how new year aws celebrated
this yr wasnot a great bash aas before,as news of the tsunami disaster filtered dwn tio the populace...we (5 guys n 6 gals) went to esplanade to have a not so happeningly countdown...it was certainly downplayed by the atmosphere and we almost forgot to countdown as there was no rise of voices or clamour as b4.....the midnight went away quietly wif no throaty countdowns as such..the only way of checking the new yr was thru our watches......
no more students of some sec schs nor as youthful as before ,some of us decided to have an early night...only some of us felt reluctant thru past newyear eve habits taht we decided to stay the night...but wif no program we wander ard aimlessly as we escorted the gals to their busstops n pickups...leaving the group wif 5 guys n 1 gal...being old frenz it didnt seem to me much...(of 7 yrs?) we mingle ard the downtown,looking for places to hang out...some was too happening,short of being too rowdy for our liking.....(oops forgot to mention we bought or rather me n 2 frenz bought 8 bottles of Jack Daniels,Old No.7 Brand)
the lady got a lobang for a house party of a Church fren...but woah.....wat it became later....
the place was just behind Yishun Junior College --'Students of Yiishunn Junioorr Collegge!!'
I being No2 bodyguard of 2/3 grp...tag along though i aint no lover of such party...(sleazy it became...)one of the guys went home for he had ns stuff the next morn
booze was rampant,so was emotions and desiress, we the old guard...(the 4 guys) was the only bastion of uprightness n integrity that night....(thought the bastion fell asleep,desmond n tan goldcome-wen)we didnt touch anything there save the playstation 2(wif nfs underground2),me n chek drank our JDs....
we were supposed to look after our lady fren,but the playstation proved too much an distraction......then...one of the guys...came about,hugs our shoulders(chek n me playing ps.....) "Stop the games ,man,get into the girls behind...they are all for you....."" lol i could only mumbled an 'ORH" while chek stoned at me.....we stop the game off the ps...n stood ......"do wat now???" being gentlemen(rather being terrified...)we decided to walk ard the estate to finish our last two bottles of JD(we had 6,rikki took two home).....CHEK U BASTARD U HAVEN PAY ME BACK!!!!!!!
we walk out the estate n chanced upon a mcdonalds drive thru .....then i suggested to chek we 'drive' over to them n order something....lol(ask chek for more details...*horn*horn*)
we tehn return to the place n sat dwn.....somehow we got into seesha.....(the device is called hookah,but the act is called shisha or sheesha or assorted names)
we got into a chat wif 2 of the girls(delirious ppl)., one of them called chek nicholas thrice and im joanne's bro...(the lady fren)
the owner of the seesha came later,(we were outside,out at the porch bside the driveway),we chatted ard..abt life n such,,being polite...we obliged to the owner's request in trying the seesha...( i only had a few puffs wif little success of doing it properly...dun wan to try so much anyway)
tan goldcome kept puffing the damn thing,splewing out more smoke than an exhaust pipe of a car..!!
then we had to drag jo out of the place without much success due to the punk taht was wif her.....only till late morning did we succed wif the help of angie......
then we all went home to prepare for a jo's birthday party on the same night(1 jan...)boy was it tiring.....had to use adult fare......
bought the wrong thing for her,didnt know she was trying to quit smking......all the party involved in the present got a lashing from 2/3 high command.....(namely ssl)
went for the party(a pyjamas party,i didnt obey this time,came in normal shorts) the rest were in pyjamas,quite a sight,seeing ppl's parents in pyjamas.....n everything else....somehow it seemed normal to me...played more house games,didnt participate...gain immunity for the efforts on night of 31 dec 2004......play mahjong for most of the time....watched Aliens the movie for the late night.....(3pm to 5pm)watched des 's video tape of his trip in taiwan n the recording of the countdown.....fell asleep at ard 6.........waked up at 8-9plus...had breakfast(rather leftovers from the night b4) wif tea(marks n spencers) then it started pouring till 1pm while we(me ivan chek n benji) play mahjong till tehn,in which we got *(#&*(#& bored n braved the rain wif benji to go home.........HAHHA longest blog i had written......thnks for reading......
