NEW YEAR's EVE!!!
Woke up...finding myself...not on my bed nor in my house. Then a recollection of last night flashed before me like a nasty vision. Didn't feel as bad as I thought I would. Head didn't throb, vision wasn't wavy and I didn't feel like a whole barrel of beer was going to explode out. Thanked and apologised to Jolyn's friend for the night before leaving with Jolyn at around 11.30am. Cabbed Jolyn to Bishan MRT before heading off for home..sweet..home. After a refreshing shower...I just died in bed till around 5pm. Met Jean, Jolyn and their friend Serene at Far East for dinner slightly after 6. But Jolyn and Serene decided to go for a pedicure before dinner! Leaving Jean and me to walk around aimlessly. Oh yeah...I felt really thirsty since after my nap. Kept drinking bottle after bottle of water...and WHOA! DID I feel bloated! Could only eat like two-thirds of my plate. Oh...I met another one of their friend, Kent, who's a really good photographer and he's Thai! haha. And he's also a damn lively joker lah!
After dinner, we headed off to The Waterhole. But it was still closed...it only opened at 8.30pm. Jean and I left them there and headed to the Backyard Bistro, which is at Mackensie Rd, to watch Clifford gig. Attendance...Andrea, Tessa, Jean, Dawn, Zac, Yvette, Alien Aaron and me. Randall and Daryl were late. Had a little Martell before leaving with Jean for The Waterhole again. Took the 65 bus...cuz I thought it would take us back to Far East. It didn't. So not cool. We alighted at the outskirts of town and walked the rest of the way. So sorry Jean...couldn't be more sorry! Stopped by at Mac's cuz Jean wanted to eat something. Does it really take 10 mins to cook a FASTfood burger? hahaha. I wouldn't know.
Met another of Jean's friends at The Waterhole. Both he and Kent are also in the Army...both are techies. Both of them were cool dudes but I was cooler....I'm ORDing alot earlier than them! hahaha. Yup. Just 6 more months till absolute freedom! haha. Treated Jolyn to a glass of 36 for taking care of me last night. Also had 3 shots of Martell before leaving with my bag for the Backyard Bistro. Left it at the bar last night and Jolyn and Jean's other friend (sorry...forgot you're name) didn't let me leave them on New Year's Eve without drinking with them! haha. But Jean was like "don't drink if you think you can't". Honestly, I didn't know what to do...I just stood there...smiling. haha. Should I take her advise and admit that I can't really hold my drink that well...or just be cool and sporting about it and just...do it. I decided to go with my instinct and just went for it! Don't worry guys...I was totally cool. Didn't puke like mad or do any shit like that.
Back to the events of the night! After paying for the 36, the Martell was already paid for btw, I went down to have a smoke with Jean, Jolyn and another one of their friends, Fuzz. He was explaining to us about a funny incident which happened at the very spot we were standing on. Shall not go into the details. Left them at The Waterhole after the smoke and headed back to the Backyard Bistro by myself. When I got there, heard people screaming and singing..something. haha. I rushed in just in time to wish everyone Happy New Year! Right on the dot too! I thought it was the coolest entrance I've ever made! haha. Arriving at the same time as the New Year! hahaha. Totally awesome!
After Clifford's last song for the night, we all headed down to Clarke Quay's China One for a little beat action! A live band played and it was damn happening lah! Will tell you all more in the next entry!
CHEERS!!! hahaha.
I love my guitar 11:59 pm♥
