New Year 2008

The commencement of 2008 was spent in the company of 5 great friends for me this year. Though to say the truth, I think there was less countdown spirit and more gambling spirit, rolf. Nevertheless it was an enjyable gathering as these outings always are, except for a little misfortune that came in DJ's way in the form of 'guard duty'. A pitiful way to spend the passing of a year to another and it was made 10 times worse becasue the recall was last minute. Sigh...
Our dinner was at Sakae Sushi (where else :p) but...our zu zong miscalculated and there was no buffet. Just when I was getting in the mood for it...anyway I think it was better that way, because I was seized by a serries of gastric pain and eventualyly kept rushing to the toilet to throw up while the others went to Cold Storage and look at liquor and chocolate. It was really terrible and I really felt in cold and in pain, feel dizzy and alert to my surroundings at the same time. After the 3rd time in the toilet, I threw all of my dinner up. A waste of money. Hold your jaw and dont raise your eyebrows. Well, that was the first thought that came to my mind after I puked and coincidentally the first thing that zu zong fm said when I announced it to her and weijing, haha. But I didnt regret, I just felt good letting them out of my stomach in turbulence. I thought of going home, but I stuck with the group and we went to seok's house =) There was another accident on the bus trip and I really couldnt take it as I was feeling extremely faint and pale and cold again as my stomach cramped again, so I simply, squated in the same spot that I was standing =/ I was wearing a mini skirt, and I tried to squat in the most dignified way I could while holding my stomach and sweating profusely in pain. Fm held my bag for me which I greatly appreciated. WJ stood by my side (literally) and gave me words of comfort though no aid to my stomach condition, soothed my nerves greatly. Thanks =) Eventually a lady gave her seat up for me cos I was squating just beside her in pain. Well I was vaguely aware of the group of guys who stood near the window keep their attention on me the sick girl in the bus.
Seok came to meet us at the bus stop and I met her with nausea (not at her la :x) as I squated down beside the drain preparing to puke. YL has tissue for me =) incredible and I was grateful and fm kept patting my back, I was touched, and the others offered much comfort for just being there. I was feeling well enough to walk again and fm and wj walked with me again =) like a super warm grandma and a super warm grandpa, heee. Compliments and thanks.
Now blah blah blah lets skip to the gambling part after I was well after a short nap after we reached seok's house after we said hi to her mum...........
yl and fm got hooked to mahjong!!! You can guess the rest:
