i was on the train alone.. and was thinking back on what i've done the past week. i screwed up my papers.. fell asleep while mugging at 4am.. drew all my notes on pink paper with a nice pink marker.. made friends with the merlion down at the merlion park..had too much chocolate cream chip from Starbucks.. (i think that explains the extra 2 inches on my waistline) satisfied my craving for cheesecake, beansprouts, (yes, beansprouts. me craving for beansprouts doesn't make me any less of a human than you are) tofu and steamboat (like finally)!! celebrated ck's 21st in advance with the whole bunch of cm's friends at zongda's place. 4 birthday celebrations that day - zongda, koksiang, wilfred and chunkeong. it was just one big steamboat party, with two cakes, loads of beer and a whole lot of army talk at the dinner table. a party of 14 - 2 girls (hsien + me), 11 army boys and 1 enlisting next month..just sheer testosterone overload. sure, i knew a little about what they were talking about. cause ever since cm got enlisted, it was as though i got enlisted too. (i got my mini crash course = the many many lunches i had with cm after his every book out) and i dare say i know quite a fair bit about the 5BX, BMT, SOC and ORD. so i listened to them talk... and it seems that army is all they ever talk about. their different experiences.. their duties.. their expertise.. it's all what cm talks about too. and i guess i can't really blame him (them) it's the only concurrent thing that's going on in their lives and all they have to talk about...no? i'm quite sick of it. really. i really wish we can both go out on a nice date one day, minus the army talk. but then again, i can't help but wonder, how would things be now between me and cm, if ns didn't come into the picture...... bah. i can't believe i digressed so much..don't mind me. it's just a whole load of ramblings. good night! |
