haha yeah.. i'm finally back.. so ready for my loooong adventure post? hee.. had a greeeat and fun time wif my tour kakis so wanna say thanx to u gals for the enjoyable trip.. hope theres more of this next time ya? hee...

Day 1
oh well tis aint really counted as day 1 man since we oni set off at nite... shared a cab wif dejia and shufen to the airport where we had our dinner and met up wif pei... when it was time to report we saw tat the rest on our tour were all families... from the old couple to a big extended family to a small extended family to a malay mama and her boy... 26 in all wif 6 kids... sounds pretty scary huh? heee.... aniway we all slept like pigs on the plane hahaha... 6hrs on the plane man.. somemore overnite... they showed 'the pacifier' but i had aredi caught it.. but they had pretty nice and updated music onboard.. even got chinese music hehe...

Day 2
alright! we hv landed in korea! yay.. still abit groggy from the nt-so-comfortable slp.. aniway we had a small break for breakfast at the airport b4 setting off for our first stop... so we had some noodles at tis shop which we were gushin down our throats cos we were the last to finish our breakfast! hahaha.... yeah was lookin for the cheapest food to get cos it costs almost like SGD10 juz for one bowl of noodles! hahaha tis was the first time tat we gals were the last to report.. there will be more comin up later... so we walked a veri looooong distance to our coach where we finally met up wif our tour guide a lady known as Lisa! oh my.. is my boss haunting me or wad? cos her name is also Liisa hahahahhahaa.... well this tour guide Lisa is different la cos she seems like an elegant lady but wif a poor family backgrd.. she was tellin us her father was from shandong province in china and her mum from korea.. said tat her father was stuck in korea after the wars and had to marry her mum whom he divorced later cos of language barrier... and she also said tat her father often neglected her and her toenails even dropped off durin winter cos she din hv enuff clothes to wear... quite dramatic huh? ok tat shd be enuff abt her hehehee...

ok so after a 3hrs ride our first stop was at everland, a famous theme park in korea... it was really coolin wif no sun in the morn which oni appeared later in the day... we went into the park's animal section by a skyglider.. saw some polar bears, tigers, monkeys, birds, and even hammys! hahahah yeah some white hammys were in a tank tog wif some black rats eeee... wanted to carry the hammys but my hands were too short to reach into the high tank hehee... managed to touch them wif my fingertips but the hammys seems scared.. guess they r nt used to my 'smell'.. aniway we decided to venture off and explore the park by ourselves.. so the next stop we went to was the 'amazon express' which was sup to be a jungle like place where we rode tog in a gushing stream... there were sooo many kindergarten kids queuing for the ride b4 us and they were sooo cute wif their rosy cheeks and curly ponytails ;) aniway u wd hv guessed tat we were quite wet from the ride.. haha ok la nt tat bad la... then we went to walk ard the place.. saw some ducks and chickens and geese and sheep but din managed to touch them... we also took pics behind popcorn and drink carts cos they were not opened yet hee....

we took some time lookin ard for our next ride which was called super bobsleigh... hmm initially i tot it looked kinda scary cos we had to take a skyglider to a high place and then take the ride down... but it wasnt really tat scary in fact i tot it was quite fun cos u basically are riding on a sleigh slidin down slopes and accelerate ur ride urself... i had a blast and was the first to finish b4 the rest.. then we went on to the four seasons garden which showed an amazin range of flowers... all sorts of colors fr white to blue to pink... they had this amazin stage which had the olympus feel wif greek statues on it... and lots of water fountains ard too.. then we went to a stall to get some ice drinks aka slurpee lookalike b4 advancing to our next ride which is called the flume ride... another ride on a stream but more exciting wif slopes... like one of those rides on fantasy island on sentosa... i screamed lots on this ride hahahah and poor dejia in front of me had to endure my screaming heehheheheheh.... they had snapshots of us screamin when we went down the slopes but we din buy cos first it was too ex and second we looked awful screaming! hahahhaa...

our next stop was at global village aka small pple country (xiao3 ren2 guo2) where dolls fr all over the world are housed... it was really really cool cos we sat in this boat in a stream which brought us to c dolls fr countries like italy, UK, sweden, spain, japan, korea, china, india, south africa, mexico, US dance to the beat... tis is where most of our photos were exhausted at hehehehhehe.... dejia and pei (the 2 camera bearers) were worried tat they wd nt hv enuff for the rest of the trip... aniway we had a pass left for one more ride and since pei and dejia wanted to go on the rollercoaster and me and shufen din wan to, we both went on the ferris wheel... took some cool pics of the entire park... was quite scared initially cos i am quite scared of heights but managed to calm myself down :p and after tat dejia and pei went on the suspended coaster ride... they said they screamed initially but after tat the ride was repeated so they werent tat scared liao.. even bumped their ears repeatedly on the side of the coaster hahahahahhaha.... after tat we finally got on to lunch at the burger cafe which was somewat in bet KFC and BK heee... we shared a family meal where dejia and i had burgers and pei and shufen had chicken... after tat it was pure shoppin for soft toys and cute stuff at their souvenir shops.. i bought a sheep toy called sheepo wif his head chopped off hahahhaahha... no la me nt tat violent k its like tat aredi.. plus some sheepo keychains... and a cushion for myself ;) after tat whole adventure we had to leave at 3pm for our resort which was at mt sorak.. another 3hrs ride so another 3hrs worth of slp ;)

when we reached the resort we were told tat we had to slp on the floor in those jap like floor beds! cool hahaha... wonder hw its like.. aniway after checkin in we had to assemble for our spa treatment! hehhe... nah din go for the naked spa.. dun dare to hee.. we went for the spa massages at the pools which was really relaxing... and the hot springs woah~ really hot but soothing... then we had our dinner at a small time restaurant where we had to bbq our own pork and eat it wif wrapped wif lettuce... quite cool hee... then we bought some stuff at the supermarket.. even tho i said i wd swear off alcohol ms devil dejia suggested getting a bottle to share hahahaha... so we got a cherry flavoured hooch lookalike but it was soo yucky tat we threw it away cos it tasted like cough syrup! moral of the story: nvr buy wines tat hv cherry flavor in it hahahah.... then we went back to the resort and made some calls home and then it was off to bed! shufen and i were sup to share one room and pei and dejia another but in the end we all slept in pei and dejia's room since they had 4 beds available in the room which was also big enuff to house 4 pple... it was a really nice slp cos i slept throughout the nite ;)

Day 3
rise and shine! we goin to conquer mt sorak next! hee... yup it was really hot so we had all our caps on.. dejia had her sunblock on lest she gets darker again ;) we took a cable car which could house alot of pple up to the mountain.. and there begins our trekking.. wow i tell ya.. it was kinda tough even for me cos u had to step on rocks like steppin stones... along the way there was a monk beggin for alms and me and dejia donated some money to him... then we went on to climb the mountain all the way to the part where the stones r its prominent landmark.. took some pics there and it was a breathtakin view... finally got to experience this kinda views apart fr cameron highlands :p a man made a shout (but there was no echo) so for fun we also made an 'impact' by screaming our lungs out b4 heading back down heee.. we were debating bet screaming 'we luv korea' or 'we luv sg' hahahhaha... finally we ended up wif 'hao2 shuang3' aka so shiok heheheh... it was kinda high pitched and short breath hahahhahahaha.... on the way back down the mountain a korean boy couldnt control his pee and pee-ed on some stones which we had to walk over hahahhaha..... then we went down again by cable car and made our way to a temple in the vicinity... there was a big buddha statue and we made our way to the four heavenly kings temple as well... bought crystal bracelets for me and my mum... then it was lunchtime at another small time restaurant which served seafood steamboat... there were prawns, fish, crab, vege, and even mussels in it! yum.. i was the oni 1 finishing all the crab since the others din like or werent feelin well...

then it was another 1.5 hrs trip to yongpyong resort where winter sonata was filmed... they said it was more popular durin winter as it's a winter skiing resort so when we were there it was pretty quiet.. but i can imagine hw white the whole place wd be when the green fields wd be covered wif snow.. our tour leader told us tat skiing is the cheapest in korea so maybe we shd come down again during winter :) aniway we took another cable car up the mountain to a place called dragon peak... wow it was another breathtaking scenery of the day... it was kinda scary hanging up sooo high up in the mountains but it was worth it... there were many pics of the winter sonata main cast at the peak and of cos we took wif bae yong jun more than the others heee..... then it was back down to land and bought more souvenirs... there was no dinner prov so we had to hv the cup noodles i had brought ;) b4 tat we went to explore the supermarket and bought loads of goodies to bring back to eat... we had lots of cup noodles for dinner and i dunno y but i got a terrible headache rite after dinner.. had to take some panadol and go to bed early...

Day 4
when i woke up i realised tat i slept throughout for almost 12 hrs straight! hahah... i did wake up in bet but was too weak to get out of bed... but even sleepin for such a long time i din really feel refreshed.. in fact durin breakfast i couldnt finish my food cos my head was throbbing... had to take 2 panadols and managed to get some rest on the 3hrs bus ride to seoul b4 i felt betta... lucky managed to recover in time to do some serious shoppin in the capital city! heee... our first stop was at the presidential house but we r nt allowed to go in and see see look look so we juz hanged ard the souvenir shop... our next stop was then at a ginseng showroom where all our eyes were bulging out at the high prices hahahhaha.... in the end we shared a box of ginseng powder which was accompanied by free ginseng tea packets.. got some ginseng candy too which were really sweet.. they din hv the heavy ginseng taste to it... and then it was lunchtime at a ginseng chicken soup restaurant where we were digging for chicken meat like diggin for treasure in our steaming bowls hhehehehe... after lunch pei spotted 2 dogs next to a souvenir shop rite outside the restaurant so i kinda charged out to smother the dogs hahahahha... took pics wif them in which one of them managed to capture the dog lickin me!! hee... soooo cute.... the souvenirs they sold at the shop were in a set and were really cheap! so we got some too...

and then it was on to an amethyst factory where all sorts of jewellery were sold heee... nth much there tho unless u like jewellery wif big crystals.... then we adv on to the dongdaemun (dong1 da4 men2 aka east gate) market where stuff of the latest fashion were sold... we had danish ice cream on the way which was really sweet and yummy... the clothes were kinda too flashy and lacy and shiny for us hhahah... wanted to get a skirt but couldnt find one tat i liked... pei was sourcing for a nice wallet too... the tour guide told us tat we had 1.5 hrs to shop and we went back punctually on realising tat the rest had arrived back earlier... hahahah we were so paiseh... well gals being gals.. we hv to make full use of the time to shop rite?? hehee... then we had more shoppin to do at our next stop which was at the dotta shoppin mall.. 3 full floors of ladies clothes man! hahhahaa... kinda ex stuff they sell there... bought a pair of earrings at the mall while pei got some hairclips... and more souvenir shoppin at the souvenir floor! ahahahhaha..... then we got our dinner at the food court where japanese, korean, chinese food and snacks were available.. after havin some plain and hot korean food for the past few days we decided to go for some fried food this time wif jap pork cutlets hehee.... then we went to explore the shoppin mall next to dotta which was called migliore i tink... nth much there tho... then it was back to the hotel where we were goin to stay for the next 2 nites in seoul... after bathing we met up in mine and shufen room to plan for the next day's trip which was a free n ez day... took a looooong time to figure out hw the subway works manz hahaha... finally decided to go walk ard at the market near our hotel b4 takin a subway to go to one of the palaces in the city before meeting up wif pei's korean penpal... caught some tv b4 we went back to slp.. haha there was this korean mtv playin which featured some silly acting... abit boliao la but really cute...

Day 5
alright here goes our day of real adventure! *praying tat we dun get lost hee* aniway we had breakfast of milo cum cup noodles... and enjoyed it alongside legally blonde which was showin on tv.. ahahhaha practically glued to the tv until 11am when the movie finally ended... aniway as i said we went to walk ard the market near our hotel.. it was pretty scary in small alleys wif motorbikes prancing ard really quickly.. u hv to 'siam' pretty fast to avoid them hahahahaa.... dejia and shufen were lookin ard for ceramic vases to get for their fathers whereas i was lookin ard for fake gucci bags hahahha... we had our lunch at KFC b4 headin for the subway to go to the designated palace... in order to travel by the shortest distance we had to change twice.. it was kinda confusing and we U-turned back once but in the end managed to reach our destination.. saw some guard changing ceremony goin on in front of the city hall building and went to take some pics..

b4 we adv on to the deoksugung palace we almost got pulled by a 'rioter' who wanted us to vote against bush hahahahhahaha tats democratic society for u ya? ;) when we reached the palace the palace guide offered to bring us ard.. he was a middle aged man who had been to sg once few yrs ago and remarked tat he could rem the bamboo poles stickin out of our HDB windows hahahhahaha.... he explained on the history of the palace and the significance of the names of the diff parts of teh palace... the names of the rooms were in chinese and he kept askin us hw to pronounce and we had a fun time tryin to match the chinese names and the actual korean names... there was a contrasting part to the palace where there were 2 western buildings constructed by the japanese... nw it has become a museum... there was also a man-made fountain in which he commented tat it was unnatural compared to korean ponds which had waterfalls flowing fr up to down as compared to fountains which hv water sprouting upwards... aniway it was really fun listenin to him introducing the place and he left us wif his namecard which stated he was the vice president of a buddhist organization... cool!

after walkin lots in the palace we went out to get some desserts at a ice cream cafe called baskin robbins.. the crepe looked realli delicious so we got one to share but alas it was quite pathetic! hahah.. juz a small crepe wif a little ice cream in it.. then we saw an ice cream fondue being sent to another table and we tot well aniway its our second last day here so might as well spend some money on gd food so we got the fondue! hee yum yum... there were diff flavors of ice cream, cakes and fruits on the plate and altho i dun realli like choco i muz say the melting choco was superb... *salivating* hee.. then we made our way to the downtown markets b4 heading back to our hotel... almost got lost but wif the help of the divine navigator - yours truly - we managed to find our way to an undergrd arcade nearby... finally got my fake gucci bags at a cheaper price compared to those i saw earlier in the day! hehe... and i got 2 somemore! hahhaa.. aiya 2nd last day liao can spend then spend lor... then we exited to the nandaemun (south gate) market where it was really crowded and a little messy.. juz took a quick peek ard and saw a man dressed in a dress tryin to sell women's clothes hahahhahaha.... when we got out of the market, i whipped out my map to see where we were when a korean lady approached us and asked whether we spoke english.. ahha she tot we were lost but we werent really.. pei wanted to go to a big shoppin complex so she asked the lady for possible places to go to.. but she told us it was kinda late at tat hr (sat evening) so most places wd be closed... so i guess its back to the hotel for us then...

along the way on the subway we kinda got lost again by takin the opp direction on our last line hahaha... lucky managed to get back... pei tried contacting her penpal but to no avail... when we got back to the hotel her penpal din turn up so we went to a convenience store behind our hotel to get some cup noodles and last min snack shoppin.. me and dejia practically bought the whole store man hahahhaha.... stocked our carts wif lotsa snacks to bring back to family and frens... then we got back to hv our noodle dinner... and it was bedtime again...

Day 6
rise and shine to the last day of our korea fantasy trip! hmm...had breakfast at a chinese restaurant near the hotel which served plain food as well... hee.. then we made our way to the tongchunghacho (dong1 chong2 xia4 cao3) shop where oni me and pei bought a can each... then it was a long way to the airport.. along the way Lisa was persuadin us to get photos from her 'xiao3 di4' who was our photographer cum helper.. sayin hw pathetic he was havin to do this job which does nt prov much income and tat he has yet to get married... so we all decided to get the photos altho they really kinda cost a bomb... but wat the heck since he was kinda cute *looked like someone in bet jet li and zhao wen zhuo* heee... we then made a stop at one of the local foodstuff shops b4 catching our flight... practically washed out my wallet of korean won on some more tidbits and souvenirs hehehe.... it was a pretty hectic check-in cos lots of pple were at the airport... veri tight security checks..almost tot we wd miss the flight hee.... wah was really tired manz.. fell asleep rite after boarding... the lunch came at like 2+ and i went back to slp again hee... caught some 'million dollar baby' on the plane as well... then upon arriving in sg dejia shufen and pei all bought liquor hahahhaha cept for me... my family dun drink ma and i oni drink for work or at clubs/pubs hehe... then shared a cab back wif dejia and then it was home sweeet home!!

oh gosh... u wdnt believe it... esp if u noe me well and u r reading this u wd nvr believe this has happened to me.... hahahahaha... pple dun be surprised hor!! hehee hmm... its nt tt bad la was sayin tat i was lookin forward to tis wkend's bday celebration wif my uni frens joy and alice... well we met first for dinner at ps and bumped into changyu and his new? gf... he said tat henry and shiwei were in the vicinity too but we din catch them.. aniway both joy and alice were targeting the KFC counter and also guys seated near us and i had absolutely no idea wat they were lookin 4.. kept sayin tat if they approached a guy wif gf then they might get bashed up hahahahah... then i realised tat they were lookin at guys' pockets and finally knew tat they wanted to get a lighter cos they bought a small cake 4 me... hehe.. yup then i told them aiya we can eat the cake at the bar since there will be plenty of pple there wif lighters rite?? hhahahahahhaha.... and then they passed me my bday gift which was such a funni incident hahahaha.. first paiseh moment of the day... more to come later ;) so they got me a white color watch which was wat i requested and alice pulled out a pink box.. then she told me it was nt for me hahahahaha... aredi started showin a disappointed face but nvm.. she then passed me a blue bag wif the watch in it.. b4 i pulled it out they told me tat they got me a really CUTE watch.. and i was like askin them hw cute? they told me i had stated in my email to them tat they shd get a watch as cute as i am.. and they followed my instructions!! hahahaha.. i din mean tat tho.. was juz a passin remark... aniway i prepared myself but still 'cringed' at the watch ahhahahahahaha... it was translucent white wif lotsa flowers on it!! hahahaha... oh gosh.. they said they could see the disappointment in my eyes.. joy 'lamented' tat she got it all the way fr her recent trip to Thailand leh... so touched!!! hee so all the more i muz put it on to show my appreciation... and then they gave me another surprise by tellin me tat the pink box was for me la hehehehehe... and then they said i changed my look 360 degrees and looked really happy hahahha.. aniway it was a really really nice watch.. juz wat i wanted!! haahha as usual wif alice's gd taste in watches ;) one of a kind :) thx to u gals for such a wonderful gift(s) yo! :p

b4 we headed down to OBAR at mohammad sultan for drinks, they were askin me hw were things bet me and my ex.. well was tellin them i met him for awhile fri nite cos he wanted to pass me my bday gift.. he wanted to pass me earlier but i wasnt pickin up his calls b4 i left for KL :p well he got me a pair of earrings wif blue crystals fr taka jewellery.. it wasnt an ex gift but i realli liked it.. suan him by sayin tat he finally got taste at last.. haha then he wasnt happi tat i said tat.. hee.. as i was tellin most of my frens he still wans to get back wif me but i guess a breakup is gd in a way tat we can c later down the road whether we r really meant for each other anot...

so after dinner we headed down to OBAR by cab... on the way we saw a gal flaggin for a cab at fort canning park and we all tot it was strange since its a known hangout place for couples and she was alone... hmm.. joy said tat the gal was so ke lian and the cabbie then said no la where got? she holdin a rose in her hand leh kekekekkekekekek... yep it was a big nice red rose she got there... aniway when we reached there was a queue aredi.. which we all tot was for obar but it wasnt after askin the bouncer... the queue was for dbl o cos it was juz above obar.. and obar absolutely had no queue at all! hahah.. yup so i paid for the cover chgs and went in to find juz nice a three seater table for us... so we had our first breezer and they whipped out the cake and asked the waitress for a lighter.. she was askin us whether she could hv a share of teh cake too hahahahhaha... so cute.. yup b4 i blew out the candle joy said she heard the waiter behind her singing bday song hahaha.. lucky they din come over and sing it directly in front of me hee... aniway the cake was kinda over-rich and veri creamy but i liked the strawberry jelly on top of the cake...

while i was eating the cake, they were tokin abt maybe checkin out gay/lesbian pubs next time.. alice had suggested tat to her bf and her bf was sayin no way! nt goin to a gay pub lest he gets taken adv of hehehehehehe.... later kana get slapped on the butt.. then i said no! they will squeeze it instead... and joy was sayin no! it shd be slap and then squeeze! hahahahhahaha.... then for lesbian pubs joy was sayin tat we hv to go in pairs to show the rest tat u aredi hv a partner hahahahhaha... alice then told us she was checkin out 3 guys who were seated across her... she said tat oni one of them was betta lookin hahahahahhaa... and then joy said.. hey! juz nice 3 for 3 hahahahahha.... hmm then we ordered our next drink which is a jug of vodka ribena... which was shared bet me and joy since alice had drank the prev nite wif her colleagues so she din wanna drink much tonite... then it was carlsberg time as a gal came up to us to promote the beer.. then she explained no la she wasnt promoting beer oni the lucky draw to win a free trip round the world.. then joy said it was kinda misleading cos she was wearin the carlsberg uniform and she was tellin us tat earlier she approached a guy to hear her out abt the lucky draw and teh guy totally bo hiew her hahahahaha... then she explained to the guy and his frens ard him were laffing at him for ignoring the gal kekekke... quite a pretty gal actually even tho it was quite dark hehe...

hmm.. then ah joy was tellin us abt her drinkin experiences wif her colleagues, esp one guy who is 40+ yrs old got a gf but kinda flirted wif her whilst clubbin one day hahaha... but i guess its nt really tat bad... aniway she then clicked her glass on mine and explained tat if someone does tat i gotta drink it all up and she also has to since she is the glass clicker.. so we both bottoms it up... the jug was pretty cheap oni 12 bucks but kinda diluted.. haha wat do u expect fr cheap drinks man? aniway after finishin up the jug joy dared me to hv a tequila shot wif her... i was tinkin and tinkin shd i go for it and aiya y not.. try it and u will noe :) it wasnt as bad as i tot cos it wd gif u a burnin sensation in ur throat but i guessed the salt and lemon did wonders in helping... alice said she could even smell the liquor vaporizing out of my mouth hee... i guess by tat time i was aredi high and groovin to the music.. when me and joy got to the toilet i was areedi feeling giddy but still could hang on.... when we came back we were checkin out a lesbian couple behind me cos the gal was quite high liao dancin away wif the butch ahhahaa....

aniway the waitress came along to take our order and recommended cocktails since joy and me looked kinda high liao... i asked them to make the orders but they were lookin at me for directions since i was the one payin.. in fact treated them to all the drinks cept for the tequila which was dared by joy hahaha.. so i blurted out long island tea! hehehe.. guessed both of them were really shocked at wat they heard came out of my mouth... then the waitress asked whether we wanted glasses or jugs cos there was buy 1 jug get 1 jug free so i went ahead wif the 2 jugs.. i guess all 3 of them incl the waitress was amazed by me man hehehehehe.... at tis time the place got more crowded and pple had to stand ard us.. there were some 'mature' men standing near us and alice was commentin they looked like PRCs heee.... then our 2 jugs came and alice tasted it sayin it was really lie4 meaning veri high alcohol content.. when we had emptied out the first jug into our glasses alice used it to click on the joy's glass and she had to drink it all... i din kana but i dunno y and followed joy by drinkin all of mine too..

and u noe wat? the next min i was conscious i was aredi lying in my bed... i had absolutely no idea wat happened in bet tat 2nd glass of long isl tea and me lying in my bed... gosh it was tt bad... i guess somehow they managed to drag me out of the place and into a taxi and got me home safely... cos i oni rem lyin in my bed and vomitting my guts out onto the floor which had newspapers on it... in the backgrd i could hear my mum ranting and my hp ringing.. but i juz couldnt get up at all and juz lied there and got back to slp after pukin... and then i woke 1 or 2 hrs later to remove my cont lens.. haha i had finally sobered up to even rem takin out my cont lens but after tat i juz removed my jewellery and went str back to bed... i dun tink i slept well at all cos i woke up another time to puke... then my eyes opened ard 7 and i forced myself to get up to the bathroom to change out of my clothes and bathe... haha i then realised i had shorts on instead of jeans so my mum muz hv changed me out of my jeans... aniway it was really a torture cos i could aredi feel the hangover effects in my head.. and i still felt like pukin.. it was really terrible... had some tea but it din work.. puked once again into a bag.. i couldnt slp at all after i was done bathing... so i went to check out my missed calls which i knew were def fr my ex and there were like 12 missed calls hee... and another 10 or so SMSes?? well i called him back cos i knew he wd be up early to go to church and he told me he was really worried and even called my home fone at 2am which was picked up by my mum... my mum tot he was the one who brought me to drink and then he told her she was mistaken.. oni called to c whether i was home safely and even told her tat he had advised me nt to go to such places... wow.. ahhaha then i told him i wasnt feelin well and he told me to go c doc.. scared i got overdose hehee.. system shock la since first time i drank so much....

it was time for his services and so i dragged myself out of the bed when my mum went out to get breakfast.. tryin to avoid her nagging haha.. then i went online to find out cures for a hangover.. i saw water.. eggs... milk.. and lotsa stuff.. then i saw fruit juices or vitamin c tablets and tat sounded more logical so i went to grab a tablet fr the fridge and guess wat? the moment i was chewing into 3/4 of the tablet i started pukin my guts out again.. hahahhahahahahah.... it was terrible but i managed to clean out everythin and i def felt betta... but got a worser headache so popped in a panadol pill and went back to bed again... got up ard 2pm was still feelin quite queasy but def betta than in the morn.. the headache was gone... replied alice and sms joy to say tat i was alright... hahah thanked alice for amazingly single handedly brought me home... then my ex called to chastise me again.. haiz.. told him i wanna go get my lunch liao and my mum was ard to give me a few 'greeting' words b4 she went out.. hahahahah lucky she had to go out or i wdnt be peacefully bloggin now...

hahah was still wondering wat in the world happened when i was in my semiconscious state when joy messaged me thru msn... told her tat i couldnt rem a single thing tat happened... we were debating who had finished the last jug since tat was my last moment of recollection hahahahahah.... then she was sayin tat she could get out of the place on her own but alice was draggin me out kekekekekkee.... and tat i was tokin to joy in the taxi but i absolutely hv no idea wat i was blabberin abt... she also couldnt rem so we gotta ask alice nxt time for more details since she was the oni sober one ard ;) but joy could rem tat i told the driver tat i stayed in pasir ris!!!!!! hahahahhah imagine tat!! oh gosh... really wasnt in the right state of mind... lucky i msg them my address b4 i got drunk man... wah gd move.. guess they saw it comin hahahahhaa... alice sent me up to my place.. looks like i wasnt tat heavy hehehe.. dun even noe wat time i reached home.. prob 1+ ba cos the last time i checked out my watch when i was last sober was ard 1250.... aniway then alice sent joy home.. joy had vomitted in the cab juz b4 she got home and was reprimanded by her mum the next morn when she discovered her soiled clothes... even bannin her fr drinkin liao wah.... for more exciting details pls refer to the link on Joy Joy Blog on the right hand side hehehehehe....

aniway juz wanna thank god for the both of them cos i knew i could dep on them to send me home safely.. esp to poor alice since it was more than she could handle wif both of us mad drunken gals heheheheheh.. muz be a really malu moment when she had to drag me out.. but then it muz be a common sight to the onlookers aniway rite??? hahahh aniway it was a blast nevertheless in spite of the terrible hangover.. limitin myself to 2 drinks liao which i hv tried and tested is my max intake... hahaha lucky my trip is nt until tue or i wd hv been in a panic state today... i tink dejia and the rest will be really shocked to hear all my 'exciting' stories heehhee...

Fighter by Christina Aguilera

When I, thought I knew you
Thinking, that you were true
I guess I, I couldn't trust
'Cause your bluff time is up
'Cause I've had enough
You were, there by my side
Always, down for the ride
But your, joy ride just came down in flames
'Cause your greed sold me out of shame, mmhmm

After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But, uh uh, oh no, you're wrong
'Cause if it wasn't for all that you tried to do
I wouldn't know just how capable I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you

'Cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

Oh, ohh

Never, saw it coming
All of, your backstabbing
Just so, you could cash in
On a good thing before I realized your game
I heard, you're going around
Playing, the victim now
But don't, even begin
Feeling I'm the one to blame
'Cause you dug your own grave, uh huh

After all of the fights and the lies
Yes you wanted to harm me but that won't work anymore
Uh, no more, oh no, it's over
'Cause if it wasn't for all of your torture
I wouldn't know how to be this way now, and never back down
So I wanna say thank you

'Cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
It makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

How could this man I thought I know
Turn out to be unjust so cruel
Could only see the good in you
Pretended not to see the truth
You tried to hide your lies, disguise yourself
Through living in denial
But in the end you'll see
YOU WON'T STOP ME

I am a fighter and I (fighter and I)
I ain't gon stop (I ain't gon stop)
There is no turning back
I'VE HAD ENOUGH

Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

Thought I would forget but I
I remember
Yes, I remember
I'll remember

Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

Lonely No More by ROB THOMAS

Now it seems to me
That you know just what to say
Words are only words
Can you show me something else
Can you swear to me that you'll always be this way
Show me how you feel
More than ever baby

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna be lonely no more
I don't wanna have to pay for this
I don't want to know the lover at my door
Is just another heartache on my list

I don't wanna be angry no more
You know I could never stand for this
So when you tell me that you love me know for sure
I don't want to be lonely anymore

Now its hard for me with my heart still on the mend
Open up to me, like you do your girlfriends
And you sing to me and it's harmony
Girl, what you do to me is everything
Make me say anything; just to get you back again
Why can we just try

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna be lonely no more
I don't wanna have to pay for this
I don't want to know the lover at my door
Is just another heartache on my list

I don't wanna be angry no more
You know I could never stand for this
So when you tell me that you love me know for sure
I don't want to be lonely anymore

What if I was good to you, what if you were good to me
What if I could hold you till I feel you move inside of me
What if it was paradise, what if we were symphonies
What if I gave all my life to find some way to stand beside you

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna be lonely no more
I don't wanna have to pay for this
I don't want to know the lover at my door
Is just another heartache on my list

I don't wanna be angry no more
You know I could never stand for this
So when you tell me that you love me know for sure
I don't want to be lonely anymore

I don't wanna be lonely anymore [x3]
