" The greatest distance divides us not because you are oblivious to my love when I stand in front of you.
But because we love each other knowing fate will forever keep us apart.''
Okie okie.....decided to get out of semi retirement and fulfill the desires of my disgruntled readers who are wondering where the Muse has gone to....
Gone no where...just having a hurried race of collecting enough samples and processing my results and having my eyesight utterly screwed looking at slides and taking photos....man....I'm so not cut out to be a scientist.
Alright but as I promised Zhu I would write something regarding the dinner on wednesday and the drinking party on Friday.
Well so on Wednesday, me my parents my best fren Meg and a good majority of the personel from my Lab and their families and some strangers from other labs went to Orchard Cafe for Dinner. Okie....it was on Dutch for all but still we sat at the same table and had a good time.
yup so the food was good, got the old folks to sit at the same place whilst the younger folks sat at a different table. Righto so who attended....Ma lao shi and his wife and daughter, Dr He and his wife and daughter, Dr. Jiang and his son, Zhang Si, Jian Xin, Wang jing and Lee Guang.
The oldies table: next to my dad is ma lao shi and his wife, next to my mum, Dr. Jiang's son and Dr. He
The 'young' ones : Jianxin ( black T), Dr. Jiang (balding) Dr. He's daughter and his wife, Dr Jiang's son again, Zhang Si (striped shirt), Lee guang, Wang jing, Megha, Me.
All in all it was a good dinner, much food and talk flowed. So it really wasn't too bad. haha...the oldies got along and youngsters...well pretty much like that.
so nothing much to say about the dinner on to the friday drinking party that we had.
so that was attended by me, zhang si, jian xin and Dr. He, Me and shwn chin prepared some singaporean dishes for Dr he's wife and his daughter to try since it was the last weekend that they were in singapore.
so after after shwn chin had left the drinks started to flow more easily... didn't help that i was having a bad day, and so the drink provided much reprise... was ok after the two coronas and the scotch whiskey, but then they decided to bring out the hard stuff...zhong guo fen jiu... wah say....it was like drinking ethanol. I can down vodka and whiskey but this is the shit man!
Needless to say, i was in very bad shape and the final gulp of fen jiu, brought my beautiful durian cake, and half of my dinner back up into my bowl.
After that, it was a process of very difficult recuperation. If left alone I would be able to have recuperated real fast....but...that Dr. He kept on blabbering on about me being a ' paper tiger ' and calling us heroes...for the record he was already wasted by the start of the 2nd round of whiskey.
sighz.....hahaha... but all in all it was a good night...bunch of good frens drinking their troubles away... whoohoo!
The 'young' ones : Jianxin ( black T), Dr. Jiang (balding) Dr. He's daughter and his wife, Dr Jiang's son again, Zhang Si (striped shirt), Lee guang, Wang jing, Megha, Me.
