This is one of the days in which I feel that I have been blessed by god and that for all the setbacks and hardships I've been through, at least I have something to be proud of and I can pat myself on the back and say 'well, life isnt so bad huh?'. Now you might be thinking what happened today that caused me to not stop grinning ever since I touched home. Well, it isnt something spectacular or anything and it probably wouldnt mean anything to other people, but to me, it means everything. Today, I thought it would be like every other day ever since the holidays started. So I woke up, watched tv, played com, eat and swim, as usual. Until I saw a miss call frm gus at 5, that changed everything. Me and Jo went to meet gus and jason at Bukit Timah plaza for pool and initially wanted to watch movie despite jason's persistent objection because he wants to watch the arsenal vs man u soccer match. Ah.. whats so fun about it? "are you playing? you're not wad.. watch for wad?!" - quoted by gus.. haha.. makes lots of sense.. Then gus had to spoil it all when he announced that he has to go meet his friends later for bowling. -.- So the whole movie thing was cancelled, or rather, postponed. After pool(Jason you still owe me a strip show cos you lost!) we went to pizza hut for dinner (sinful.. I know) and decided that we join gus and his friends to bowl. Those 2 hungry fellows ordered a four person set meal(duh. cos we had 4 people) which consists of 4 bowls of soup, 4 glasses of pepsi and 2 large pan pizzas. And it wasnt enough for them! They ordered an additional plate of chicken drumlets and cinnamon bread. It was like a hungry human festival. tsk tsk. Dinner was fantastic, nothing beats having a group of friends gather around the table under the warm, cozy, yellow light, catching up on lost times and cracking really lame jokes. Non of us could withstand gus' lameness. I really think he should go back to north pole, where he really feels at home. So the dinner was filled with fun and laughters and it was one of the best(not exaggerating here) dinner I've ever had after a very long time.. The best thing was that Jason actually paid for me and Jo! I mean, not that I'm so desperate for someone to treat me or anything, but the fact that Jason offered really touched me. I've never had a friend treat me before. Payment was always settled through the 'dutch' method. But today, its just different. I swear I'm gonna treat the next time. Yea, I've always wanted this, anyone can treat and the rest can treat the next time round. After dinner we cabbed down to west coast sports complex to meet gus' friends. Now this is where it gets really funny.. haha!!! Before we met them, gus introduced them as a bunch of 'guai lan' kias, so me and jo thought we were prepared to meet them. Turned out to be that they are really a bunch of guai lan kias!! haha.. Not really that bad but all of them are weird. Yes, there is no other word to describe them, all weird. there were 6 guys and a girl in total. The girl was normal though, with outstanding bowling skills(I suspect that she trains almost everyday) and is very pretty(I suppose thats why she is the only girl there), as for the guys.. one looks totally like a 'zai nan', and dresses like one(I was confirmed by Jo and jason) but gus explains that he is not. another had this crazy, weird, random dance whenever he almost cleared the pins. and another kept shaking his butt and flashing his tummy and another jumps and spins and I dunno wad he did but it was hilarious! Well there were a few more but they were more sane in comparison. gus was the best among his group of friends and I was really proud of it.. =) We only played one game and decided to leave for home. So we bade gus goodbye and left. Its a happy happy day and there was never a minute where I felt unhappy or regret coming out. It was all worth it and with that, I know that I've been blessed with these true friends that I'll always cherish.. =)
