All that one needs

Well well, it's the sign of the changing times that I am actually blogging in the afternoon, instead of studying or sleeping while studying. Yeah, it's the end of the A level prelims, still I got my Econs S paper but that's for later. Much later.
Friday was quite the enjoyable day, with various interesting experiences interspaced with many guys moments. It started with me waking up feeling still a bit zonky, thanks to me staying up late to watch OC. Struggled to school and to stay awake somewhat, in between reading my notes and taking a few cat naps here and there to try and raise my attention levels.
Bio paper 1 was quite easy, but I made one really careless mistake. Argh. Hopefully this paper pushes my Bio grade up. Felt very glad for it to be psuedo over, as the 2 weeks had taken its toll on me. Inexplicable aches and what nots didn't really help me.
Took the train with mogilan to dhoby ghaut, and argued with him whether there is a need to understand the why of everything. A longer elaboration another time. Anyway we got there and saw no one, but js murugan and kenneth came just behind us. The rest joined up later at different times. We got over to paradiz and ate macs for lunch, and that was the start of my money begging to mogilan, as I forgot to top up my wallet before leaving home.
Quote of the lunchhour:
"It's based on a true story right?" Js, refering to the Terminal when everyone else was talking about dodgeball. LaU started to tell us about Valerie, which I am damm convinced is fabian in disguise.
And yes, the whole of yesterday was punctuated with dodgeball jokes, which I could not understand nor appreciate.
Lunch done, we began to LAN. An attempt of battlefield vietnam was aborted soon after, as it was too laggy and boring. We switched to the original battlefield, and kenneth created a server where the bots outnumber us by 10 to 1. But it was really, in truth no kick at all. Plus somehow we didn't really get that many bots. In the end, kenneth decided to go for the jugular and changed the ratio to 100 to 1, and started laughing madly and shouting "Song bo? No kick right? Now sure got kick!" as he pointed at the tactical map, with the numerous blue dots compared to the measly few red dots we had.
Now, that's what I call fun. When you throw your grenade you can kill up to about 7 bots at one go. And they started to try and fly (and crash) the planes again. Finally figured out how to drive the tank properly.
CS was next, and we tried out the new features of 1.6, namely the tactical shield for the CTs. It's amusing to see 4 CTs charging up the italy tunnel with the shields. I shotgunned my way around. This time got less drama, no one headshoted himself with his own grenade, or flash his own teammates. Or maybe I should say I wasn't on fabian team that's why.
3 hours and $5 dollars later, we trekked over to HMV to kill time, saw DC and his gf(?). Anyway we harassed him for a while, before letting him be.
At HMV saw cheryl, went in to talk to her for a while. The rest were playing finger games and trying to contact edwin. Then he did show up, and we flashed lenty of thumb-ups.
In the end we came to a consenssus (after threatening to keep on forming horseshoes around me), to got to suntec for dinner. Along the way, as I was already quite tired due to lack of sleep and my heavy bag of bio stuff I started to whine, the other DC style, much to kenneth's chagrin, who then threatened me with the "umbrella". We slacked at esplanade, under the stern glare of a security guard there. Brandon had to leave for Lingli's birthday party, and sufficiently rested we hit suntec foodcourt for dinner. Following which mogilan told us about this quiet place in suntec where we can just sit and talk cock, and led us to the sky garden.
Well, if you never been there before, DON'T go there unless you're with your other half. I think we unwittingly passed by 9-12 couples making out under the dim lights.
Gosh. We couldn't really find a spot devoid of them, so we just sat on the floor, as far away from them as possible.
My eyes were hurting due to my contacts, and fabian's unfunny jokes were not really helping. On another day I would have laughed but not yesterday. Edwin had joined us for dinner and they were grilling him.
The I saw it. I couldn't really believe it at first, as my eyes were quite blurry, but I asked edwin and mogilan if what I saw was correct, and they confirmed it.
In truth I don't quite know what to make of it. In any case, it's something I found a tad disturbing.
Yeah, maybe towards the end of the day I was not quite myself, but yeah I had fun. Maybe, just maybe, like mogilan said, why waste yourself looking for that one love, when all you need is the company of friends?
