Last S30 Meeting... :'( (24th Aug 2006)

Last CG meeting...the impact was actually felt only after our last service tog...coz there's no more S30...no more sitting tog at 4 o'clock floor area in church...no more debriefing at crane area...i actually kept the last 2 msgs from Kelvyn (my team leader in S30) regarding the location we r sitting n the gathering at Gladys' place after service...it's a pity we cldnt go...it's really not we dun wan to go...coz need to go for Gareth's bdae lunch...the very last gathering as S30...actually we can gather nx time also...but it'll never be the same...everyone will be busy with their new cg...actually i feel that this is one of the best CG i've been too...as in the people somehow made me live up to a higher level...yest nite Gladys msned me n i realised she too also seem rather sad abt it...i thot she is always so cool...i guess we really need to move on...i'll really miss S30...

Zhongwei's 21st Bdae Dinner (9Aug2006)

Yest was TKB's 21st bdae! Haha. He invited some of his sec sch frens n Dear n me to One Fullerton Black Angus Steakhouse for dinner. Hehe. Dear n me were the early birds! Haha. Since TKB made reservation under his name, we juz went in to sit down 1st. We had so much time, that we studied the place, the menu, decided wad to order n even had time for some foto taking. Lol.


Ta Da! early birds at Black Angus!

we waited a while more then Bdae boy n frens came...hehe...finally see his gf Hwee Zi...haha actually saw a lot of her on pics, n met her once when we went for her CO concert yrs ago, but never really meet up for a meal like this. Saw Christina n Martin, this couple i seen b4 also during the CO concert. N there's Tricia, this quiet n pleasant looking girl, whom i met her during TKB's Commissioning Parade then. She still rmbs i had rebonded hair then, n commented my hair looks v different now. Hee. Actually my hair now is like JC days but longer only. Yeapz. There's this other guy fren of TKB, Kee Zhong, heard of him b4, but never seen him b4. They joked that he looks like Christina n calls him her bro. lol.

we finally took our orders, n most of us ordered steak since it's a steakhouse. While waiting we chatted. It's nice to chat with Hwee Zi. Dear n i both agreed that she is both a gd speaker n listener. I rmb TKB told me b4 he likes girls who can speak well. N i feel she not only speaks well, noes a lot to engage in chats but she's also v confident n pleasant. Yeapz. hehe. TKB, we hv a v gd impression of ur DIDI!!! Lol. We chatted so much that we din realised how long we hv waited for our food. Until Tricia says she nds to leave by a certain time, then we realised the table behind us, they came later n were served their food earlier den us. We did hv our entrees but then it's really a long wait for the main course. After voicing out our concerns to the waiter, the food came rather quickly n Dear joked that they forgot to bring them out. Lol. The food was nice. Most of us had medium rare steak. Then there's the drinks we ordered too. Many of us ordered Texas Tea, which was ice tea with some alcoholic content. Not too bad. But Dear's face became quite red. He says he does turn red not becoz he's drunk (how cld he? it's juz a cocktail kinda drink!) but coz of the circulation. Hee, he felt quite hot too. lol. Think some ppl's bodies r like that. After our meals, Tricia has to leave early. Then we shifted to another table (that's semi-circle kinda seating) to cut n blow the cake for TKB. Hwee Zi bot a Breadtalk Green Tea cake. It was nice! In betw the green tea flakes were red bean with cream, but the cream is not those kinda fattening kinda fresh cream leh. It's quite mild i think. But i dun really like cream so i din take too much of it.
Okie, from left, Dear n me, Hwee Zi n TKB, Martin n Christina n Kee Zhong. Does Christina n Kee Zhong look alike? Haha.




Hwee Zi N TKB, got fu ji xiang hor? heehee


wad's bdae boy wishing for?


TKB n his fave green tea cake. haha.

After cutting cake, we chatted a bit then we left the place. It's quite a nice place to dine. The food is not bad, the staffs r frenly n nice, the music is quite relaxing. Other then the waiting for the main dish which was rather long, i quite like this place. :)

Dear n I parted with the rest after leaving the restaurant coz it was rather late n Dear has to work the nx day. Think they mite be going some other location maybe bars? hehe, hope they had fun.

As for Dear n me, we went to Fullerton Hotel for a while, coz 1 yr ago we went there to chill out as frens. haha. But that was after church anniversary. We went to the same travellator, where we tried to take pics. N i thot it turned out quite well. hee.



we went to the sofa we went last yr too!


Hee...i love Fullerton Hotel!!! :)
