Today the whole day was doing all the table tennis stuff. Finally got the team sorted out. The rules state we need to have a veteran single and a mixed doubles. There goes my chance at a shot at the 3rd single slot. Anyway todae I played quite well, smashing my way through three of the teammates but ended losing to my doubles partner of last year. Hahaha. It must have been overconfidence. Well, broke another record today by returning to office at 1030hrs. So late! But being covered by CPT David's email, and also being part of the ORD contingent, nobody said anything to me.

Yesterday was a very memorable day. First time went KTV with so many powerful singers. Even last time the grp I joined from some forum website (can't rem the website liao) wasn't as good. Let me try recalling the people yesterday...

1. SY - I got to know SY from my sec sch fren, but eventually knew her better through icq, and more recently MSN. With her aid, I was introduced to her gal pals and bfs..SY's singing has improved since the last time I met her, probably a year ago!?

2. TR - TR is SY's bf. He's quite a funny chap. Didn't talk much to him, mabbe cos we are not really veri onz with strangers ba? Anyway his singing (sorry to SY) is only average for chinese songs, but for english he sounds much much better.

3. XH - Quite a cool, stylo gal. Also din get to talk to her much (mabbe that's y i think she's cool?) She din really sing much yesterday, so really can't say anithing abt her. And to think I have been reading her blog...oh man. Hope I don't offend her without telling her abt me reading a blog. Budden I did leave a msg once on her blog wishing her good health....

4. HS - This is one of the most 'power' gal i ever met. She speaks really clearly! Chinese *two thumbs up* English *two thumbs up too* My japanese sux, otherwise could have tried talkin to her in jap. She sings quite well too...a great voice. And she's kinda a cutesy gal kinda character..hee.

5. JE - One of the most stunning singers I ever met. Whenever she talks she reminds me of Ella....another really cool gal. Power sia. Her singing is superb! She's also quite bubbly and humourous type... hope next time can challenge her to more singing cos she sure can gimme a tip or two..

6. WS - Din really get to talk to her although she sat the nearest, with only her bf in between. Anyway she's another cool gal that sings pretty ok.

7. ER - This guy is a cool man. Sings with an accent...and he uses 'ku1 qiang1' most of the time...not a typical skillful singer but quite soulful...

So the whole night was a struggle. Firstly it was the cold cold aircon coupled with my poor dressing. (I must blame my office work for givin me inadequate time to go back, let alone change, and for your info, i went to the MRT straight from camp). Secondly was the stupid choice of the drink. I picked Milo because i have been 'brainwashed' by my officialmates of the track and field (time keeping)..this whole grp they like to gamble with iced milo! haha it was so funni seeing them disturb the runners cos they bettin on who's 3rd, 2nd..not the usual betting style. So I kena addicted to ice milo...but it is not the drink u shud take in ktv...3rdly, it's been since long that i last went out with so many females present...so u noe i felt super awkward the whole night. What I could try to mix in was to sing their songs...but it kinda din work...(mabbe i shud have stuck with the guy songs, budden usually our unit ktv challenge i alwiz sing alot of gal songs...) Aiz. Luckily the whole night quite enjoyable. Dunno if they look down on people from YJC or not...cos like when HS asked me if I am going NUS or NTU, I replied neither and said I was going SMU, kinda out of place. Haha. Watever. Nevertheless, despite the tiring nite (reached home at 12+am, and woke up 0615 today!), it was indeed a well spent night.

Tomorrow I am on leave (finally) Gonna clear up my room. My parents asked me to cook spagetti but I am not sure if I want to make the effort so...haiz. Tiring sia. Also dunno if I should go airport and receive the 3 guys back from Thailand..hahahaha. But then I forgot to get the exact flight details. Only know it's Silkair flying back from Thailand (fei hua) and WH says it's at 2010...not sure if I shud go to the airport or not. Kinda extra leh..

Well, Castle yesterday drew with the Saints and now Pool is definitelty 4th! Woah. Congrats to Owen, Gerrard and Co.
