just trundling along...

• went to singapore with sue and rachel (bought too much...again!)

• went to hong kong two weeks later (bought a lot as well but hey...i had my mobile atm (read: my pa) with me...so..... heheh*)

• joined the guys for paintball on one of the sundays - man... you ain't seen leeches till you see a big ass chomper with brown, green and yellow patterns, sucking so hard onto the strap of your mask, you'd think it had the starring role in deep throat...(!) and i'd like to state for the record that when you've "killed" a person, you don't go on shooting at the dead while they're walking away to heaven! (credit for the two bruises on my back go to mr. low "trigger-happy" eujin!!....grr.. :P)

• went to aaliya (new sri lankan restaurant/bar next to jarrod & rawlin's in damansara heights) with pat and ted. to sum up my...erm...food review: great ambience, pity bout the food

• went to exotic (new vietnamese/thai/cambodian restaurant next to the "ex-cristros"). the multi-coloured neon signboard from the main road gives the impression of some strip joint (and with a name like "exotic"...go figure..). you won't miss it. heheh* quickie review: pat and i went there two weeks in a row. the first time, we had an eight course meal between the two of us. the second, well...with joa and pete, we doubled it...i think. anyway, more hits than misses. must try: chicken wings in cambodian tamarind sauce....ooOOooo.....sooOOooo g.o.o.d.....


• watched harry potter once. transformers twice.

• attempted to queue up at 4.45am at the doors of klcc for harry potter and the deathly hallows, but quickly tracked back when crowd of 300 or more stood before my eyes. settled for a mcdonald's breakfast with sue at 5am instead. slept till 2pm only to wake up to find that the sweetie had gotten the book for me from carrefour while i was sleeping. awwww..... hugs hugs*

• my first scrabble 7 letter word!!!!: C.L.E.A.N.E.D. with the "D" joining the end of R.E.U.S.E. i even took pictures of it...and my poor opponent of course...ah, the look of defeat...how gratifying...heehee*

• relish restaurant launch at the brabus showroom in bangsar. theme was white. i showed up in black. sigh. honest mistake i tell you! or maybe...just maybe...it was a subliminal cry for attention...ya'think? ;)

• conversations across the board included

1. a more than healthy dose on relationships/women/men/shit happens bla bla bla...
2. a two hour session on self actualisation and a projection of its impact on mankind in general in the coming years
3. history of the north/south korean conflict
4. contrary viewpoints on the existence of God
5. anything, and everything about paintball (thanks guys...)
6. we've also perfected the "standard script": "you're better off without him", "there are plenty of fish in the sea", "it's his loss", "be strong" and "revisit, don't relive"

***

i think i've covered most bases. plenty of pictures were taken in between. too late and too lazy to put them up. general conclusion is: being with my friends requires too much thinking. ha!

p/s: for food review on "exotic" - best to check with joaquim. she's a lil' more disciplined bout these things than i am. =)
