What a day

22nd of January.. its a day to rmb.. went out last evening wit my
buddies derrick and sida.. sida jus got his car license and he rented
a car for couple of days and he asked us out for some CNY shopping..
sida came to pick me up ard 450pm and following that to pick up
derrick and b4 we reach derrick's house.. the car stalled at a U-turn..
and tt's the start of many..

we headed for a light meal.. which we deemed as a tea break.. curry
fish head.. how light is tt for a tea break? aft the "light" meal..
we headed down town.. the moment we reach orchard road.. we could sense
that is gg to be a crowded day.. the pple on the street are jus like
ants.. sida wanted to park at the youth park.. but tis full thus i
suggested to park at the Citibank near Hereen.. was a gd choice though.
cos its only $2.50 aft 5pm..

we headed to Wisma as derrick wanted to get Crystal's ring back in shape
and he was told that the ring might break when they are trying to knock
it back to shape.. and he was told to come back 30mins later.. and i was
tinking.. if they can do a slower job.. more gentlely.. i dun tink its
gonna break.. but luckily it didn't when derrick got it back..

we shopped ard taka.. wisma.. far east.. lucky.. esp taka and wisma..
i tink we walked thru and fro for at least 3 times.. sida got 2 tops and
1 bottom.. derrick 1 top.. and me 1 bottom.. kinda tired of shopping when
nthing seems to caught my eyes.. running out of places to shop too..
our last stop was at wisma G2000 where they both got their tops.. i didn't
get one though.. felt that formal shirts cant be worn during sch days..
and i ald got 6 formal shirts.. headache part.. wad to get......

aft we done wit tt.. we headed to Changi Village.. and i reckon we took
a big route to reach.. as none of us know exactly which route to go.. but
eventually we reach there ard 11+.. i had the Chichen chop hor fun.. the
chicken chop was nice.. other then that.. i felt nthing special abt it..
and aft i ate a couple of mouthful.. i realised tt the stall jus beside
the one we bought from.. sells exactly the same food.. one is recommended
by City Beat.. one recommended by Channel U.. so i reckon is gd? but if
you will to compare the crowd queuing up.. the malay stall selling the
nasi lemak overwhelmed the 2 noodles stall..

aft our late dinner.. we headed for some rounds ard the carpark.. where the
"aquas" will be standing at.. not much though.. cos i tink its still pretty
early at tt time.. and i posted a question to my frens.. which washroom do
the "aquas" go to? high chance they will be gg to the ladies.. but isnt' tt
kinda weird? but anyway.. its their problems.. and i reckoned the money they
spent on their surgeries shld at least allowed them to the ladies.. if not
its a big failure..

aft the few laps round the carpark.. we headed to the Changi beach.. and
guess wad? i tink it shld be named as "Muds Beach".. cos 90% of the pple
over there are all malays.. and we left no longer than 5 mins aft we stepped
out of the car.. kinda windy too.. but the people over there seems to be
on fever or wad.. they dun seems to feel/affected by the cool breeze..

we went to the Old Changi Hospital aft tt.. but we din went in though.. was
jus outside it.. and when are there.. another car came along.. inside was
packed with couple of guys and gals ard our age.. aft sida stopped and high
beam into the building.. the car moved forward till the entrance as if they
were heading inside to the building.. we were laughing as we knew they won't
be so dare to drive the whole car in.. and sida high beam at them.. urging
them to drive thru.. but they didn't and they reversed.. and sida drove the
car to the entrance too.. jus to sort of copy wad they did.. but jus for a
few moments.. and he made a big U-turn and left.. we take a look back..
the car did the same too.. how's tt for lame?

aft tt we headed straight back home.. and here comes the interesting part..
becos of the car tt sida rented.. was in real bad shape.. other than the
speedometer.. the rest of the meter are dead.. the petrol indicator was dead.
and guess wad? the car ran out of petrol when we are near YCK mrt.. though
sida kept trying to drive the car to as far as he could.. we noe its not gg
to make it to the petrol station.. and we stopped at a bus stop.. completely
stranded.. but luckily our savoir Crystal was still awake.. she drove out
which i tink is pretty near her house and picked up derrick to get some petrol
its ald 1am.. was glad that Crystal came to save our butts..

ard 15mins later.. derrick came back wit the petrol.. and we started figuring
out how to pour the petrol into the gas tank.. cos there's a gap from the gas
tank and the petrol container.. but.. aft i put on my tinking cap.. i got a
ingenius idea.. tt's to use the peel fresh paper bottle.. invert it.. tear
up the bottom part.. and use it as a funnel as i believe most of us do noe tt
the paper bottle has a bottle cap at the top.. so by inverting it and removing
the bottom.. its a great funnel.. thus we did tt and we funnel the petrol into
another water bottle.. which can be easily poured into the gas tank..

but of cos.. things aren't tt simple.. when transferring the petrol.. i reckon
tt at least 1 litres of it is wasted.. they are either on our hands or on the
ground.. and in the midst of doing so.. a indian.. i dunno if he's indian or
malay now.. but anyway.. he stopped and commented "ran out of petrol ar? haha"
and he stood there and watched us fill the gas tank in such a unique way..
and he was there till we finished doing it.. kinda pissed of by tt.. but we
jus ignored him.. cos we are racist!! jus kidding.. for some reasons.. we jus
want to get it done asap and move on.. thus we dun really bother abt him..

and so tt concludes the interesting outing we had.. car stalling.. aquas..
old changi hospital.. mud beach.. and manual refilling of petrol.. jus tink
of how many times do you in your life u got to do manual petrol refilling..
certainly not at our age esp.. but its gd lesson though.. make sure u got a
funnel or something at the boot of ur car.. if not.. jus make sure u are rich
to call tow-car whenever your car breaks down for wadever reason..
