K fun 天...

Was out with my secondary close friend yesterday nite... Hmm... a friend for erm 11 years? We hardly catch up ever since i went over to aussie for studies... "Requested" to meet up since last week... We are still behaving the same like secondary school times but with more maturity... Due to his heavy work load, met him about 8.30pm at city hall and went over to swensens at suntec city for our dinner... thinking about having ice cream for the desert (slurps!...)...
Thinking about to go for a drink since i had not drink for quite a while... Paulaner was suggested... Mid way thru the dinner hmmm... another idea popped up! KTV!!... Been wanting to have one for quite a while... Both of us had no objections... deserts are forgotten... Reach marina's kbox @ about 9.15pm and our package allowed us to sing till erm... 3am? Was thinking of leaving at 12 to catch the last bus home...
Anyway... I love KTV but erm... i guess i still prefer to sing with old secondary school friends as most of them knew cantonese songs of my "era" (reminds how old i was, drats!), more of the same "frequency"... The common favourite songs between us are classic old songs from Jacky Cheung and Eason Chan... Well known songs from William Su, Cao Ge as well as Li Sheng Jie were also sung... Got ourselves killed when we sang 背叛, scream till our throat bust and found out that the time was only just 10pm... just 45mins into our session, drats!... I tried Eason's 十面埋伏 shortly and found out that my voice is half gone and needed some songs which require to "talk" in order to regain some voice...
Went toilet and heard Shin's 一了百了 and wanted to give it a shot... Wha lauz... my comment a crazy song, no need to mention wat happened to my voice... but the song is a erm shiok hehe... Also selected some 80's oldies which seldom ppl are aware off from Danny Chan's 今宵多珍重, 一生何求 and 深愛著你 (very tough song...) . Even my secondary school friend (he was from hk last time) had not heard some of these oldies before hehe...
Time flies... it was 2.30 am then as we finished our last song from shin, 世界末日... Yeah 5 hours of KTV fun for just 2 person, averages up to 20-30 songs per person! It was a great outing as we have the same frequency as in appreciating the songs that we sang... Before we left, we told each other we would wanna have more in the future... If Bro from Hk could join us, it will be really good...

Bo Liao Weekend Gone Within 72 Hours...

Friday! Skipped soccer because of swollen right toe... hoping the swelling will subside in time for ascendas cup next week... Well i think i will still play la haha... Went to Adephi on friday to get my Michael Ruff LP to flatten, the LP was warp on a single side hence on one side the music "skips"... grr... Will collect it next weekend... Hope the music will not be distorted from this lp...
Anyway went over to JR's place and managed to have a chance to listen to his new toys he is selling... Could hear the difference straight away when i asked him to play Stimela by Hugh Masekala... The speed of his phono stage was obviously faster though its using tube... More details could be heard too... May be due to his higher end living voice speakers and maybe kondo amps doing the trick... Anyway... listen to Jazz at the Pawnshop Limestones Blues... Haven't heard it that fast and quick before... Ride Cymbals from the percussion and Xylophones appears to be more 3D like compared to mine... Will like to bring the phonostage home and test if it is this component of the hifi that is doing all this trick... grr...
New Amps from Da Vinci costing 50k from what i got to know from him and some rich guy ordered without even listening.... Gosh! I know its good... but erm does the sound really suit u? Well anyway... if i am rich till that stage and with the money with no place to spend... I might do the same too hehe...
Enuff of self poisoning... Sat was bored..... Slept till 11am... Woke up... eat some cookies wanna go out and it rained! Go to bed at 2pm and sleep till 5 plus... What a lazy day...
Sunday... Went out for lunch... Sushi treat from Granny... but i dun really had appetite though... Planning to go SLS... but rained started pouring, so went to Marina Square --> Suntec --> Bugis --> SLS and back to Bugis again on foot in the rain... Grr.... Getting drench is a good feeling at times ya.... hehe...
Darn tomolo still gotta work... Grrr...

Little update... ~

Lots happened... Got my desktop fixed but at a price (grrrr...)... Tried transferring to another department which did not take place in the end... but overall i am glad that i am finally able to focus on my work with the transfer saga which i describe as "ronaldo going over to real madrid" over... haha...

Last friday was national day celebration... joined the DL group for soccer at CCK stadium home to SAFFC, wha all i can its damn far lor... Anyway nice to play with different style of players but i am still aggressive always wanting to net goals if i have a chance... Ended up having a swollen right toe which i had previously injured years ago where i fell and knock it against a lamp post! Yeah lamp post, that one took me months to recover... This time round i injured that poor little toe while i was trying to shoot, kicking it against the street soccer court flooring... grrr...

Managed to sell my extra P35 mobo too... Will try to remove water cooling equipment from my TJ07 casing and sell them all off for a cheap cheap price... Maintaining the water cooling set up can be quite a hassle, yeah time consuming... Hope to get 3-4 pieces of powerline adapters for my house network at this end of the month pc fair... Want more lps to enjoy too...
