Updates on life here:
The package sent to me was new year clothes, a Howl's Moving Castle storybook, and one angpow. I luv my parents and bro.
Wednesday's Bball game of Hawks versus LA Lakers was the best game I've ever seen in my life. My very first game too, and the energy was contagious. We originally supported the Lakers cos we heard they were good, but then we realised that the Hawks weren't that bad. In fact they had pretty good players. So by halftime, we all switched sides. Still the Lakers were winning...until nearing the end where they pulled slightly ahead by 1 or 2 points, and things got interesting. The tension mounted and by the last 10 mins, the whole stadium was on its feet - shouting! chanting "De-fense!" "Let's go Hawks". People were jumping. Ss beside me was jumping shouting screaming. Mm was biting her nails. And everyone screamed to support or boo at players. And we (the HAWKS) won!!!
I'm hooked on basketball games like this. We'll definitely try and get tickets to another Hawks game or a Gtech bbal game. Shiokalicious! The commericals, cheerleader routine, mascot, marching band, Kiss Cam made the experience even better.
Thursday's steamboat was good too, and we all ate till we were so full. And then we gals took out Samuel's cake cos by then it was midnight and it was his Birthday! Upside-down banana cake made by ss, mm and me. I shall rem how hilariously we tried to secretly light the candles. Intro of the 'game'.
Friday came and we went out for Samuel's birthday. Pizza for dinner, and then we went over to mm's place. Kinda got distracted by the piano - fun! And then we went up for the highlight of the day - drinking. Too bad we were so noisy that eventually we took all the stuff and continued drinking at my place. My first drinking event - so here's what I tried:
Vodka ribena =D
Vodka + sprite (yucks)
Tequila + lemon (yucks)
The vodka had like 40% alcohol content, so after many rounds of drinking games, Jeff lost many rounds consecutively (damn suay!), and he got tipsy. Everyone, that was there, now agrees that he has great entertaining value when he's drunk. Ss now watches the video (of tipsy Jeff) for laughs. Too bad we didn't video certain things. Lolx. Drinking is definitely not my thing (it all tastes horrible anw), although the guys can hold their liquor. I'll say that was a pretty interesting night.
Saturday night was the night where we all were invited to the steamboat party. Another interesting and educational night. The 'game' began that night too.
Now Tuesday's here, and I just handed in a paper today, and there's a test tomorrow. Wish us psych gals luck!
Wednesday's bday + Thursday's vday + Roadtrip to Nashville in the weekends completes a fully packed eventful memorable week.
