Chinese Fireball! Ooooooooohhh...

After an extended leave of absence, I'm back! Lol... have been at the Teens Connect chalet, which is, sadly, the last planned chalet for me this holiday. Anyway...

Thursday: Met Ignatius and Sam at Pasir Ris at 12. Together, we went to Costa Sands Downtown East, where we met Edwin and checked in. Apparently, though, we could only go in at 1430, so we had to loiter around for a bit, eat lunch, take lame neoprints and do Sam' s surveys. When we finally got in, we just sat down, and chatted, and had a crack at the Xbox. I wanted to get some sleep, cuz I was up the whole night watching Benfica squish Man U out of the Champions League (my favourite part was when Ronaldo gave the crowd the finger). Was woken up rather unceremoniously by Cheryl, who inexpicably decided to kneel beside the bed I was on and loom over me until I saw her and got such a shock I nearly flew off the bed.

Frist day was rather uneventful, relatively. People just came in and out, until there were just Small Joe, Edwin, Iggy, Cheryl and me (poor Cheryl). Played Xbox, had Canadian pizza and tried to cram in that room and go to sleep. Wheeeee...

Friday: Woke up late. Can't remember much about this day, except that it was our barbecue day. Went to White Sands with Iggy, Small Joe, Cheryl, Jul and Yvonne for lunch and to buy stuff for the barbecue. The girls made the guys carry all the stuff back.

Barbecue was fun. Edwin came after we got back, with his chocolate fondue set. Sam, Victoria, Big Joe and Desmond (with his friend Sandra) came later. Barbecue was spent eating, joking and everything else you do at a barbecue. We had honey glazed sausages, honey glazed fishballs, honey glazed crabsticks, honey glazed satay... honey glazed everything, basically. Des was downing a few vodkas. Vodka's not my thing. Started playing lame games, courtesy of Sam.

Later that night, I went with Edwin, Des, Iggy (the misfit here... lol kidding) and Victoria to the pub nearby and we met her parents over a few drinks (Iggy has Sprite, which he apparently gets high on). Victoria's parents are the coolest parents ever! Well, second to mine I guess. Real easy to talk with them and joke. Later, the bunch of us went to Singa Fiesta at Pasir Ris Park to have a few more drinks. All the others came down later, and they left slowly. I said my goodbyes to Victoria and her family before I left with Iggy and Small Joe, a bit tipsy. Well, a bit's an understatement. Halfway through, they had to carry me back.

The first thing I did at the chalet, after kicking off my shoes, was plonk on a bed. Then I shuffled to the toilet, but Cheryl was in it. Wanted to wait, but I sort of plonked at the door and was unable to move. Edwin came later, carrying a stoned Desmond into the chalet. I think Des and I gave everyone a handful, two drunk idiots. What happened that night is sensitive information that doesn't warrant an appearance on a public blog like this, so yeah. Can't remember much anyway.

Saturday: Most people didn't come today. Had to go home to wash up, and then go to church for the IRO thing, which David insisted we all go, but when I got there meeting Small Joe, Iggy (I think these two are gay with each other) and Yvonne, there was absolutely nothing to do. Went home to sleep (I still needed a lot of it even though I only woke up at 12) and then went back to the chalet with my Game of Life.

The afformentioned gang was there, followed my Edwin, Desmond and Sandra, and Victoria. Went out to eat and went back. We just spent the night playing Game of Life, mahjong and cards. Last night was rather uneventful. Victoria and Yvonne went back later, while Edwin and Small Joe were playing Tales of Destiny II on his PS. Couldn't sleep much that night, dunno why.

Sunday: We went for 1100 mass cuz we woke up late.

And that's all there is to it, as far as I can say, or remember. Someone had a camera, and when I find out who, I'll put up some photos.

I hope.
