let's start with the first:
A 2-part Birthday Special from 1st Nov to 2nd Nov
Part One
On the 1st we went to Pearl's place, with me waking up at 0730, and leaving the house at 0826, and eating breakfast alone at Bugis Macs =) *wink chiew* yes its 1-1 now.. haha. took a bus to pearls and got there at 1040 to see the sleepy yappies just waking.
took a dip in the pool from 12-2plus, showered and went up. Me and pearl went Parkway to get a cake for Ben's bdae, and i chose a Berry Mousse Cake, exactly the same as the one i had for my bdae! k fine. i think it was nice so ya. Acccording to Pearl, I "conjured" up a lighter, and lit the candles on our way back to her place.. (check out my cool Hold-Cake-Pose pic) and sang 'Happy Bdae' when we walked in.. surprise ben! had a shirt giving moment where they had to shake hands. Must be a soccer thing. btw cut and ate cake(had three fat slices! woooo) Along the way we convinced pearl i was a smoker, then, chilled out, bought and ate dinner from some hawker place again.. then Bad Boyz II.. what u gonna do when we come for you.. heh thanks pearl for having us over! oh, for those interested, according to pearl's scale the used to be approx 60kg edward is now a whopping 67kg!! -dance dance- highest ever.
Part Two
The next day, we were to meet at Ben's place for mugg-a-mania. And Laur sent me a msg, which i pretty much guessed the contents. It went vaguely like this: "Let's surprise ben!" But since i wasnt there yet i referred her to tanen who was there. At bout 4plus when we were all there, suddenly tanen requested to buy dirnks and ben directed him tot he mama shop below.. minutes later, deja vu! Laur came in the door with a lighted cake and surprise!! we didnt sing no song though. Cut cake, ate cake, this time, tiramisu. *yum* Took photos, mugged a lot and went for zi cha, with a lot of chilli again. damnit.
now what happened yesterday:
met tanen in the afternoon, at my mughaven(i decided to call it just mughaven) for 1min, then went for lunch. Back to macs, saw a friend and according to tanen i started a 45min conversation. But anyhow, at the same time emma appeared to -watch- us mug for a short while and left to meet wendy. Mugged a lot again, and was inspired by the Haber Process to sms a poem to stef:
Saddled on
Sunbeams our love
Shall ride,
Waiting in
Willowbuds this joy
Will bloom.
Finally freed from falling,
Forever fallen for flying
In the love of you.
(ok this is a 5min conjuration, and dont ask me why ammonia production)
and stopped at 8pm, then walking to buy headphones, followed by dinner. Then came the last part:
Me and tanen decided to have durians. Saw a stall, and just bought them, in those packeted form. BIG MISTAKE we were lazy to even check. sigh. So when we sat down to eat the durians, the durians were the best we ever had.
We categorised them:
- Very Very Bad: Consistency of Hardened Rubber, something like tyre rubber.
- Very Bad: Still felt like rubber in the mouth, but at least it had a faint durian taste, with one or two still-soft spots.
- Bad: ahhh.. this was nice.. its about 50% creamy, tastes like durian and its sweet, but just with a more chewy twist.
- OK: These are the normal durians.
Overall, we had about 70% Very Very Bad, 20% Very Bad, 5% Bad and 5% OK. We even tested how the durians might bounced on the hard floor. Finished what we could, washed our hands and went to Video EZY to borrow "Event Horizon" (you guys watched it before?) to watch today. Along with Constantine and 28 Days Later since its 3 for $10.50. Went home feeling retarded bout the durians. When we walked past the uncle, he actually managed to sell the remaining 10+ packets when we left! How trusting people are.
But those who are worried bout dear edward's tummy again, I'm safe! At least the durians were still edible. Not some bacterial mush.
