Wee Dragonauts!

You're a yellow dragon!!! You are really

intellegent and spend all your time reading

or studing. You hate to get even C's and hope

to go to a good college. With all your

studies you rarly talk to people but your

fond of cats (their quiet and loving). You

tend to get stressed out over school a lot

but roll right over it because you don't want

to disrupt your studies. You need to take

some time for yourself. Have some fun!!

Signing The Lifetime Contract aka ROM aka Only Legal Way To Own A HDB Flat

Note: This post serves as a log to what has happened a week ago and at that moment in time I have no idea about what to write about the event although said event is to be one of the most important to ever happen in my life, so here's a recap on my ROM based on what my little brain can remember, lol!

For Whom The Bells Toll?
It was quite a bright morning when I awoke really early at 8am to get dressed for the signing which was to take place at 11am in the sanctuary of one St. Paul's Church situated at Upper Serangoon Road. Incidentally that's also the church that I attend on Sundays and all.

The reason I got up really early was due to the fact that I needed to get on down to a florist at Raffles Place to get my hands on three stalks of Calla lilies as wanted by the wife-to-be.

So there I was travelling together with the regular morning crowd, dressed in shirt and pants (I really hate wearing these things man, how can anyone bear to wear like this every day, five days a week, 52 weeks in a year???).

So anyway, got the flowers at around 10.20am and rushed back to church, reaching there at about 11.10am (was a bit late but the pastor has to wait for me anyway).

On hindsight, the whole cremony zoomed by so fast that I cannot remember much of it now except for the fact that I did utter the magic two words, "I do" and then some convoluted vows about sickness and in health, in riches and in poverty...till death to us part kind of stuff. You all know the drill.

So there you have it. I am married and this is like a week after that I am typing this so pardon the hazy memories.

Am I happy?

I must say I am if not I will be sleeping on the couch tonight :P, but ya, of course I am elated.

Is there any difference?

In the course of daily living, yes there is a marked change in the sense that now you've got someone to wake up with and someone who doesn't mind to cook some tidbits for you when your stomach is growling and there is also an alteration of feelings although I still cannot see Jo as my wife but rather a close bosom buddy and someone who I can look up to for help and disclosure, but a wife? No I cannot and she also feels the same. It's wierd, I tell you.

Then again, if you have all missed the show this time around (what am I saying, of course, you all people missed it), there's a sequel when you can all see us saying and going through the whole thing all over again except that we will be clad in suits and gowns later next year (2006's version is all for the gahmen of Singapore, specifically the Housing and Development Board, such a police state that we are living huh. But that's another tale for another time). So will keep you guys informed.

Fire, my ass.

You are Roy Mustang! You are cool and collected,

but you try to get all the girls/guys. You

seem out-there, but you have a lot of hidden

secrets.

Battle of the Conglomerates

Went over to Lauren's place for some last minute festive cheer and some food and drinks coz it was the last day of the Lunar New Year already. Somehow, after pigging out to some delicious Kueh Pai Tee, bee hoon, chicken wings et al, we settled down for a good old favorite pastime of CNY - gambling.

It's freaking funny I tell you coz Meiting had to go and introduce us to a brand new way of parting with our money in the form of "In-between" a poker game where you combine two packs of cards together and take out two cards from the top. Now if the third card that is drawn has a value that is between the two cards that were drawn earlier, you win money. If it's not, you lose. Worse, if the third card is the same as either one of the two cards revealed earlier, you lose double of your bet. Sounds easy? Sure it is, but is it easy to win? Let's just say that I would rather go play chee ko pa with a kid and still stand a higher chance of prevailing. Now, all the losers' money will be piled into a sort of kitty in the middle that if it goes well, will keep on getting higher and higher in value. At one point in time, I could swear that there was at least $5 - $6 at stake. A ridiculous amount when our bets are actually anywhere between one dollar to twenty cents, or should I write it the other way around, hmm...so you can imagine how many times we lost, lost and lost to the ever burgeoning cash pile.

Anyhow, Mona and Nani were roped into the fray. Yea, I know good Muslims don't gamble but hey, it's all in good cheer and after all, they claimed that they have exploited some loophole in the sense that they are not gambling with their own money (they exchanged their stakes between themselves so Nani's dough is now Mona's and vice versa), talk about divine law-mongering. Haha!

Anyhow, what's a good Moonie game without name-calling and under the table bitching and ruthless trash talking? We just took it to another level and masqueraded ourselves as huge-ass global conglomerates like Disney, HSBC, Microsoft, Apple (ever the perennial enemy), the local Capitaland (backed by Lee Foundation, ok? Donch play play, jagan main main) and the sick-assed Enron (spearheaded by the Muslim duo) who not only went absolutely fucking bust but also made the most amazing comeback in winnings only to lose it all to a peasly thirty cents when the dust settled.

Most memorable moment?

A certain Lee who shall not be named caused Capitaland to almost go bankrupt when she betted a whopping $2 for a pile of $4 in the kitty when she was presented with a Ace and King opening duo (the difference between these two cards is so big, it's alomost a sure win, almost) with only 5 - 6 cards unrevealed. Then when it comes to the crunch, this certain Lee drew an Ace!!!! Resulting in heart-wrenching looks (from her) and butt-whooping cheers from all around as the kitty swelled to 8 bloody bucks!!!! Capitaland is clearly not very loved! Lol!!!

Seriously, we have never been this noisy since the cool years in Ngee Ann Poly. Here's to more guffaw inducing, wallet emptying CNY visitings in years to come. Thanks to everyone who was there that have made it such a good time and thanks to Lauren for a day well-spent.
