it's been aeons since i last saw the guys of my darling class - 03s54. so the day, i christened 'coincidental day', began with the meeting of pearline and jincheng. this poor ns boy, who was like a big pop star dressing down in order to not get recognised (think of the cap, baggy jeans and a shirt one size too big), told us a lot about basic military training (bmt) life, injecting a lot of drama (the exaggerated reenactment) and humour. jinny's always the person to go to for a big laughing fit. pearline and i were shocked to know that the army puts the university placings of the guys at risk. anything undesirable happening, anything at all, could jeopardise their varsity education. that's really serious, in my opinion. they shouldn't do that at all. what has firing a shot one second earlier/later got to do with going to university? it's the man's future, for goodness sake!
a day out with jincheng is utterly harmful to your diet plans. our itinerary, extemporaneously planned by jincheng, included delifrance lunch,
tea time at
tea chapter, evening break at swenson and dinner at breeks. four food outlets in a day! i can't believe i did that. anyway, it was an experience of a lifetime. right, i realised i have yet to explain why last saturday was at all coincidental. firstly, we met irwan at breeks. then, i met joey at orchard mrt station with a girl he claimed to be his ex-girlfriend. that explained his absence from our meeting, albeit i highly doubt the reliability of his 'excuse'. it was great to be able to see so many of my dear classmates all in a matter of a few hours. i love '
coincidental day' - may 14'05. yet again,
coincidentally, peter's birthday.
damien rice's "the blower's daughter" has been haunting me. "
the colder water. the blower's daughter. the pupil in denial. i can't take my eyes of you..."
i'm getting my first car -
the red honda jazz - today!!! i'm going to pick it up (not literally) later and drive it home. yippie! i'm absolutely exultant!
