Balaclava with the Guys.

Yesterday afternoon went to sent Bee off to Hongkong. 1545 departure, Jetstar Asia, Terminal 1, haha... It has been such a long time since i've been to terminal 1. The last time was actually last year when i went to look for Nari and Jinny working at the Check in counter.

Eh... Bee never bring hand luggage only cargo. WAH... amazing leh. Go Hongkong sure shop one! haha... good luck! Now no extra stowage space! haha...

Anyway i was there at 2pm, Bee was still checking in. Actually Bee was just standing there while her mom was helping her queue. hahaha... lalala... Think Bee wanna beat me up liao... haha...

I was amazed at what people check in. WAH LAN... got this guy wanna check in this 40 something inch plasma TV lor. Siao leh... Then all kind of funny pattern like writing chinese characters on ribbons and attaching them to their cargo bag. haha... First of all there is no date, no flight number and the Passenger manifest is all in English. So your with your Chinese character written, it can't save u even if your bag was lost or something. haha... Dumb ass leh.

Tell u lah, if people wanna steal your bag, u write name also no use. If u scare your bag will not get loaded onto the flight or get lost somewhere, always write your name, flight number, date and destination. So they can trace the bag if found.

Anyway we had coffee and chatted for an hour before Bee have to head for the boarding gates liao. Poked a few more jokes at her before waving goodbye and going our seperate ways. haha... Bee to hong kong, her mom going home, while me... eh...

haha... Was supposed to be meeting Wendy lah, but change of plans so will be meeting her on the 22nd after i come back from my CMB turn in the morning.

Called the Foo Ji Kun and asked him if he wanna go chilled out or not. haha... Anyway it has been a long time since the guys had an outing. Time to plan one. So called up det 1 and friends to meet at Balaclava at 7. In the end managed to get Foo Ji Kun, Jason Ong, Sgt Lazy, Fong and Kurt to come. Surpisingly that TJW who said no at first came in the end too. haha... Heard it was Foo Ji Kun and Sgt Lazy "Ti Ti Gan" him till he came down. haha...

Foo also managed to Jio 2 of his friends along as well. haha... quite a crowd man!

Too bad for the NUS and NTU people, they were all having exams.

And just like old times, everyone was late.

I was freaking hungry so suggested to that Foo we go have dinner first since all was not here yet.

Actually last night i was damn proud of all the guys, me myself included... hee... i still remember back in those army days when we have to pool all our money together just to buy drinks, now we could actually whip out our cards and order drinks for the entire table. I bought the first round, then Foo's friend bought the 2nd round, Sgt lazy bought the third round. Working is definately a good thing. Suffer like shit but at least u get the spending power to enjoy yourself. Haha... and Foo treat me eat dinner. haha...

Left for supper around 11, went to the Kopitiam near SMU, while Sgt Lazy and Jason Ong continue their night at Zouk. haha... Wednesday night! Mambo! Maybe we'll plan for a mambo night once the NUS/NTU people finish their exams.

Supper was chop chop, just 45mins of tim sum and catching up then we all parted way.

haha... Really miss those good o' days. Although life was fucking miserable as a lowly paid NSF. Well... maybe not so miserable as the rest since we are commando and we get paid more, but it's still meager compare to the working world. But the suffering brought about a bond that no money can buy. A brotherhood forged by hardshipship through difficult times.

This is something that i will never trade for even for all the riches of this world and i will cherish for all of eternity. They are my friends, my comrade, MY BROTHERS!
